Daily Talk


Half the fun of life lies in its plan
ming.
When I talk to a boy who is all full
of plans, know that 1 am talking to
a future man who won't be out of a
job and who will be success. And
more than this, he will take scores of
others along with him in this success.
1t is good for boy to say he will
be this and that-even tho his future
plans lead him far from those ideas

The plan must be u mental picture
of what we want or see already ac-
complished. And how thrilling it is

And every day, it has seemed, that the
boy has been planning something new

in his heart. And what time of
happiness they will have for all the

8 1t is estimated that there has been
spent in this country this year more
than $4,000, 100000 in building con-
Etruction. Probably the same amount
of housing twenty years ago could
have been produced at half the cost.
Not only are wages and costs of ma
terials higher, but what once were
considered Injuries in homes now are
regarded as necessities. APPROX
lnately half of the cost of a new house
now goes into comforts and conven-
fences aside from mere shelter. Peo-
plano longer will live in houses which
once were regarded as wholly desir-
able. "Altho the current season has
been by far the most important one
in the annals of the building and con-
struction industries" says S. W. Straus

intensive pressure for more buildings
thruout the country has spent its
force. There is, of course, some slow

still a large demand for buildings, in

Is it possible that Turkey has been
misunderstood and misrepresented?
TO convince the world that it has
probably would require much addi-
tional evidence over and above that
afforded by the Turks themselves.
However. an article published in Asia
magazine, under the caption: How

OF them, is not without interest From
this article is quoted the following:
England should realize, as the rest
of the world, that from the ruins of
The Near East has emerged a new
Turkey. Like a phoenix reborn from
its own ashes, Nationalist Turkey has
come to life on the ash-covered plains
OF Anatolia, Turkey has proved her
Stamina. A nation that can produce
a Mustapha KemaI Pasha has the
same right to live as nation that
can produce George Washington.
And it can produce also, when needed,
a Monroe,
THE Turkey of today is the Turkey
OF the real Turkish people, the simple
peasan<s of Anatolia. Nothing can
prevent Turkey from continuing on
her road on progress. The national
government of Angora is a govern
ment of the people. In the midst of
untold sufferings and difficulties Tur-
key has organized new form of gov
eminent more democratic than that
OF any in the world. Even the execu-
tite powers are in the hands of the
National assembly, whose members are
elected by the people.
We have no animosity, no hard feel

LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK
THE ZOO
BY LEE PAPE.

THE zoo
Jest think or~all the meny different
animals
It takes to make a Zoo,
You stand outside their cages looking
in at them
And they stand inside looking out at
you.
The elefunt stands on his feet all day
Looking strong and harty but pale,
How carelissly he waves his trunk
And don't do a thing with his tale.
o look at the baby rinosseriss
He is pritty because he is new.
Vile his mother on the contrary is
jest the reverse.
She was young once but how she has
grew.
The munkeys jump up the bars of
their cage
Because they have no trees to cline.
But you cant injoy feeling sorry for
them
Because they have such a wonderful
time.
We stay there bravely as the lion
roars
And shows all the teeth he can show,
And yet on the other hand if he ever
broak loose
We'd be the ferst ones to so

HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State Journal
BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. thompson; I have been
going with a fellow for about aayear
and I love him very much. Two or
three times he has done things and
told me he did not and then when he
thinks I have found it out or, will, he
tells me all about it. He says heAloves
me and he has proved he cares for
me. s-
When 7 told him we would quit
he wanted to start over again and
do differently. 1 gave him the chance
to improve, but 1 can see no differ
ence. I know. he doesn't have dates
with other girls, but, he acts so stub
born with me sometimes. Do you
think he really cares for me as he says
he does? BOBBIE.
The boy probably cares for you,
but has a dishonest streak in his ma
ture. If he means SO much to you
otherwise, perhaps you can help him
TO improve by encouraging him to tell
the truth. Do not accuse him of do
ing things, and when. he confesses do
not scold him. Let him feel that you
are sympathetic, if exacting. and that
he need not be afraid to tell the truth.
BLONDE: Since your fiance is In
a position to marry you now, but con-
tinues to put off the time, 1 would
advise you to act as if your were not
engaged. The position Offered you
seems so exceptionally good, that
would advise you to go. Such a move
would not make it necessary to break
your engagement.
1 am not SO sure that going away
would hasten your marriage, however,
as your friends seem to think. Your
fiance is just as apt to go on in his
satisfied and complacent way, thinking
that there is plenty of time left for
marriage.
Let your fiance understand that
you expect to make new friends in the
new place and to accept invitations
from other men. Since your engage
ment has been SO long and marriage
is not in sight, he has no. right to
object In case he does, tell him that
you want to break your engagement
until he is ready to marry Tell him
frankly that Won are tired of waiting

WSraA's Righess Paid Wsznan Writ


One of the most absurd foIlies of
the times is the mania we all have for
pretending to know everything. there
is to know. And then some.
1t is the fashion to be wise and we
solemnly attitudiniZe in the role of
Solomon, which is a misfit for most
of us. We don't register convincingly
in the part.
No subject is sacred any longer to
the specialist. If we have not gone to
the bottom of it, we have at least
SKINNED the cream off the pan of
knowledge on every topic, and there
is not one of US but who could have
told Foch how to conduct the war,
and who doesn't know how to settle
the Shantung question right off the
bat.
Nowadays it is better never to have
been born than not to have seen the
last play, read the last book, know
Babe Ruth's batting average, the
length of skirts in Paris, what Elm
STEMS theory of relatively really
means, and the unsavory details of
the newest scandal. And if this hodge
podge of miscellaneous and unas-
sorted information doesn't constitute
a universal culture, it is what James
Ford used to call culturine, and not
ono out of twenty of it's possessors
knows the difference.
So we rave over classical music,
we yawn behind our programs, and
applaud in the wrong places. We dis
course about values in pictures when
we can't tell chrome from a 1itho-
graph. We go into ecstacies over old
Spode, and Royal Worchester, when
the only way we know it from new
American is by the price tag. and we
pay down good money to see foreign
plays acted by foreign players in a
language of which We do not under
stand one single word, and try to
maintain an expression of intelligent
enjoyment while we suffer agoflies of
boredom.
No one has the courage to say 81 do
not know any more, tho it is a charm
to conjure with, for there is nothing
in the world more delightful than in
telligent ignorance. No other COM
panion is more fascinating than he or

STRIKES SHOULD CEASE.

1t has been many years since the
country has been so free from strikes
as it is today. The old Romans had a
custom of closing the gates to the
temple of Janus when the country was
at peace. While there is in this coun-
try no similar way of calling public
attention to the fact that our great
industrial wars of the year 1922 are
at an end, the fact that there is in
existence at this time no strike of
Importance is worthy of note.
No better time could be found for
taking stock and making an honest
of these great labor disturbances in
the future. Everybody has suffered
so much from the coal strike and the
railroad strike that it seems there
should be general willingness to seek
way of preserving industrial peace
while we have it.
1t is expected that congress will be
called to meet in extra session next
month. If legislation can prevent
strikes the matter should have prompt
attention. President Harding is re-
ported to favor action along the lines
of the Kansas court of Industrial re-
lations.
En- view of their recent experiences
both labor leaders and employers
should feel willingness to unite with
the representatives of the public in an
dustrial peace.
AS a result of strikes this year the
workers have sacrificed millions in
wages. The public has been incon-
venienced, has seen the peace and or
der of the country violated, and has
had to accept, along with the two
classes directly concerned, a large
money loss. Storekeepers, business
men in general, the entire Industrial
and commercial community, have suf-
fered. And there is no way of max
ing their losses good.
1t is not too soon to take steps to
prevent such a collapse of industry
and retardation of prosperity in the
future. Means should be devised for
the orderly adjustment Of differences
between employers and employees, so
llidt we SfidAl AOI W4lnSSS again a pro-
Ionged struggle out of which every
one comes a loser. In this enlight-
ened twentieth century there ought to
be better way of reaching an agree
ment than a tedious contest that
breeds dissatisfaction and bitterness
One weeks wages of the miners
who went out on strike last spring
would have created a fund which
could have been used to place before
the American public any and every
equitable claim the miners have de-
sired to make. A campaign of pub
licity could have been started and
carried to every man and every wo-
man in America. Action could have
been taken in the courts and the most
eminent counsel in the country could
have been engaged to present their
claims before congress and before the
tribunals the federal government has
| created for exactly such a purpose.
And while the legal controversy was
going on, while public opinion was be-
ing created, the miner could have
kept on working, his family would
not have suffered, he would still have
his savings intact and the country
would have been saved from distress
and the loss of many millions of dol
| lars.

Aroused by the large number of
accidents and fatalities attributed to
motor mishaps, scores of cities and
localities thruout the United States
began last week the observance
of Seven Days for Safety" part of
the Safety Season" suggested by the
highway education board. According
to the most reliable statistics, the
board says. at least 1880 persons
were killed in motor accidents during
1921. while $4,000 persons received
minor or major injuries during the
same period. This death and accident
toll, says the board. can be laid di-
rectly at the door of carelessness and
ignorance. 1t was in an effort to cor
rect this situation that the safety
Season" with its component parts, was
suggested. But unless the public can
be induced to make every week a
safety week. little good can be ac-
complished. The only successful way
to prevent accidents is to make them
impossible. This can be dene as re-
