Oh, Maraot!

hopping mad, and some found them
selves distinctly amused by the ar
raignment of the tired American business
man by Margot Asquith, who closed her lect-
ure tour with the statement, among goLd
many other statements, that the American
business man was rude, uncultured person
who cared for nothing but making money
This terrible thrust conceivsbly was dellv-
cred because Margots audiences consisted
mainly of women; circumstance easy for
kind, to understand.
. 'Margot adds that American business men
are uninteresting and then misses trick as
she essays tt attribute superiority to English
men because Of their athletic outdoor life
and sporting tendencies.
This was not just the opening for Margot
to say things like that. with a French girl
and an American girl fighting out the Brit
ish women's tennis finals at imbledon; an
American oarsman winning the Diamond
SOULS at Henley; home-bred American in
ming the British open golf championship;
and a grievous dearth of British boxing
champions who were champions outside of
their own township.
The B'pghamton Press arises to remark
somewhat tartly:
eve in America have some dubious ways
of making .. oney, just as people do in Eng
land aud elsewhere. But we haven't any
conspicuous examples just now of the kind
of people who go on the lecture platform to
make money out of an exaggerated reputa-
ton for eccentric leadership in snobbsh
social caste.'
Meaning Margot, we assume. Well, Mar
got DOES appear slightly wanting in urban
ity; but maybe her culture doesn't include
thu :, as being vast by-product of civil1za-
ton.

The doctors are telling us now that about
half of our i'll health is the result of our
having permitted ourselves to fall into bad
mental habits.
We slump mentally, and get narrow
shoudered and narrow chested. We eat our
intellectual peas with our knives, so to
speak, and we gargle the soup of our opin-
ions, as it were, and fall into divers other
bad habits that make us an offense to our
fellow creatures.
We used to consider that people had a
right to think anything they pleased, so long
as they didn't translate their meditations
into actions that were against the public
peace. Now, we know better, for as a man
thinketh, so is he. He is well or SICK good
or bad, an agreeable companion, or an af-
Fiction to be with, according to his
thoughts.
How important, then, that we watch our
thoughts, and thus prevent ourselves from
forming bad mental habits!
There is self-pity, for instance. That is
the favorite indoor amusement of countless
people. No one knows why, but there is a
strange, fierce, savage, bitter joy in being
sorry for yourself, and when once you let
your thoughts begin to dwell on how cruel
ly life has dealt with you, it takes an effort
of the will to wrench them way.
Self-pity becomes an obsession. You can
do nothing but think how cruel it is of fate
to rob you Of those you love; or how unjust
it is that you have not succeeded; or how
terrible it is that you are poor; or how sad
it is that you are sick. You become so doped
with your own misery that ambition Is par
alyzed and energy killed, and eventually you
drown i your own tears.
If you are firmly convinced yourself that
you are unlucky, and that the world is
against you, and that life has given you a
rotten deal, you WI be unlucky and the
world will be against you, and the cards
will be stacked against you, for to succeed
we must have faith, and hope, and enthus-
iasm, and if we discard these of our own
free will we bring our misfortunes down
upon our own heads. Therefore, when you
feel inclined to pity yourself, turn your
sympathies towards someone else. Self-pity
is a luxury nobody can afford.
Another bad mental habit which we do
well to avoid forming Is that of talking about
ourselves. OF course it is perfectly natural
thai each of us should be the center of our
own little universe, and that we should be
more interested in our own dinners than we
are in starving nations, and that the great
world problems should not thrill us as much
as whether Mamie is invited to such and
such a party, or Johnny makes the football
team.
., 1t is human and inevitable that we should
mediate with pleasure upon our own
achievements, and the marvellous perfection
of our wives, and husbands, nd children,

Out of a Six Hat

old-fashioned magician can get white
~ rabbits and large bundles of flowers
out of a silk hat, but see what that
stalwart Bolshevist repre- entative, M.
Tchitcherin, got out of one lately.
1t all started with a silk hat, according to
the theory of a facile writer on the editorial
page of the The New York Times.
M. Tchitcherin went to the Genoa Confer
ence, representing the Soviet, and at Genoa
lie bought himself silk hat. He gave up the
flannel shirt of suppositiously honest Boil
shevism. He started on decadent path.
Recently the Russian diplomatic corps gave
a reception to Chancellor Wirth at the old
imperial embassy; or rather a dinner to the
chancellor and reception to the former
diplomat corps.
And t an elaborate ar"ir with twenty
liveried flu kes in the hall and forty in the
dining room; and the splendid old service of
silver and gold; and champagne of a decided
ly capitalistic brand.
All that to come out OF one SILK hat, bought
a. Genoa! Truly, as The Times suggests, the
ancient Spartans and the medieval Japanese
had the correct idea. When peculiar peo-
pie essays to keep it's own cultural standards
intact, it must abstain from contact with all
foreigners.
The Bolshevists, If they desire to remain
communistically pure ought to set the death
penalty on the abandonment of the honest
flannel shirt.
Something even more drastic If possible
should be visited on the Sovietis- who buys
silk hat.
