THE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHY

We are the richest country, per capita,
in the world; and our wealth has come
from the farm, the forest, the factory, the
mine, the sea.
We have dug, plowed, pumped, smelted,
refined transported and manufactured. We
did not inherit our wealth, neither have
we laid tribute on other countries as did
those earlier civilizations.
Any individual who uses the word "com-
mercial" as an epithet, who regards BUSH
ness enterprise as synonymous with graft
and greed, who speaks of certain men as
"self-made" and others as Educated"
who gives more attention to war than to
peace, who seeks to destroy rather than to
create and build up, is essentially I'M
American.
The word education" sometimes stands
for idleness, but The American Philosophy

WHAT A SMILE WILL DO

Did you ever stop to think what smile
will do, both to yourself and everybody
around you? If you never have, just stop
and consider it now. l have in my mind
lady l once knew, who was working in
a factory and whose circumstances l we'll
knew. And it did seem to me that if any
one had little cause to be happy, it was
she, but on the contrary, she was one of
the most pleasant women l ever knew.
The presence of lingering smile was al
ways on her lips. One day l asked her,
"Why are you always in such good humor;
l have never seen you angry; surely you
have worry here with your work, but you
are always pleasant, even when the boss
finds fault with your work. You never
get angry like some of the girls. Please
tell me the secret?"
Quickly came the answer. | have to
work for my own and others in my care
| have no time for what is commonly
called pleasure, but my heart is light, for
/ love to work, to help relieve the suffering
of others. My smile is from my heart. 1t
lightens my labor makes all with whom
l come in contact feel easier and happier.
A smile is the heart speaking; a smile
makes friends where frown loses them"
The winter has passed. For some it
brought good cheer and happiness; for
others it brought sadness; to some fond
memories, while to others bitter recollec-
tons. To all of us is given the power to
shape our own destinies. To all is given
the power to live today; yesterdays regrets
are futile. The hand of time can not be
turned back. The sand once through the
hour glass can never be turned back.
Tomorrow's fears are shadows which to-
days sunshine may dissolve. If there still
remain some shadows which are not
melted, they are of tomorrow, and all of
todays fears cannot make them less
What then shall we do? With our abid-
ing faith in the Supreme Ruler of all
things, let us be merry today, putting aside
the yester year, trusting the future to Him,
and SO live that we may shed happiness to
those about us and prepare through the
years still given us to approach the great
adventure with confidence and trust that
all will be well. So let's all smile.-Ea.

In 1928, Bompass, in England, patented
and built compressed air locomotive.
Parsey, in 1S47, built and ran vehicle
in which an intermediate reservoir was
provided for reducing and equalizing the
air pressure to the cylinders. Baron Won
Kathleen built anil ran vehicle with COM
pressed air in England in 1S4S, attaining
speed of IL miles per hour on the best
roads of that day; he also suggested an
increase of pressure to $50 pounds per
square inch, as desirable for road and loco
motive power, and advised compound COM
preston and intercooling.
The earliest known appliance for max
ing ice by the expansion of compressed air
was invented and put into actual practice
by DR.. John Gorrie, of New Orleans, La,
in $780, to whom a patent was issued in
1851. The system of cold-room storage
by the expansion of compressed air has
since been greatly enlarged on the lines
originated by DR.. Gorrie, and is in use in
the meat and fruit transport service.
Valance again agitated the subject of
tube transmission in England, in 1918 and
on, and proposed a cast iron tube system
for passengers and parcels; followed by
others with feeble efforts to establish the
pneumatic tube system again by William
Mann with English patents in 1924. 1t
was not until 1865 that practical success
was achieved by the Parcel Dispatch Co.,
of London; since then the use of this sys-
tenn for parcel and postal transmission
has been greatly developed in Europe and
in the U. S.

WHALESKIN SHOES

Until recently blubber and whalebone
were regarded as the only things worth
obtaining from the whale, but now we get
another important product from the sea
monsters great carcass. 1t has been found
that whaleskin when tanned makes ex-
cellent leather, and great whale tannery
has been started at Puget Sound.
The most important thing about the
whale is that the whole of his skin is good.
The skins of cows, horses and other land
animals furnish comparatively small
quantity of leather, for only the back parts
are of the right quality.
Whaleskin is so thick that it can be
split into several layers, each as stout as
ox-hide, and it is excellent for making
shoes, bags, harness or betting. The
whales usefulness is not confined to his
outer skin. The stomach furnishes
leather as soft and strong as the best kid.
Not only whales but porpoises and sharks
are being used at the Puget Sound factory,
and in every case the leather produced is
excellent.-Ex.

ANOTHER FIFTY MILLIONS

THE United States senate in a
I few hours voted another fifty
million dollars to the amount the
house appropriation bill for the
army carried, and the bill now goes
to conference between the house
and the senate. One principal rea-
son for the increase of fifty mill
lions for army expenses in the next
year is that the senate raised the
size of the army by adding $4,000
enlisted men and more than one
thousand additional officers to the
number authorized by the house.
The latter fixed the size of the
army at $4,000 men and 1900 of
ficers. The senate boosted the
number to $4,000 men and 1850
officers. Even this latter figure is
not as high as the war department
wanted to put it at. They asked
for an army of 100000 men. BY
this latest boost a great part of the
saving contemplated by the house
committee in the cost of the army
is eliminated. The same thing
happened in the navy bill. Neither
of these bills are yet finally COM
pleted, but they have been growing
bigger and bigger while they wait.
And in both cases the whole power
of the president and the admins
tration has been exerted to raise
the amount of money to be taken
from the pockets of the taxpayers
for the support of the army and
navy. A big splurge was made aft
er the Washington conference about
the big savings to be made in war
preparations for the future on &C.
count of the agreements there
made. Gradually these savings
have melted into thin air-hot at
at that. The army and navy de-
partments remind us of the two
daughters of the horse leech that
Solomon described. They are al
ways crying, Give, give! They are
never satisfied.
Perhaps the house may refuse to
accept the senate's additions to the
army bill and a further compro-
mise will result. All the house
members must 60 before their con-
stituents next November for ap-

prevail at the polls, and they are a
little nervous over their record
and public approval Of it as they
may we'll be. This has been one
of the most trifling and cowardly
congresses that the country has
ever had the i'll fortune to endure,
and there is not lacking signs
enough that the masses of the peo-
pie realize this feeling and con-
gress is fearful Of the result. They
may balk over the action of the
senate in boosting the army bill
appropriation fifty million dollars
at a crack. 1t gives them one more
item to explain to their constitu-
ents when they make a big noise
about the economies they have
made in cutting down estimates"
that were purposely made higher
than needed or expected in order to
give the statesmen a chance to tell
their constituents how they cut
them down with their little hatch
cts.
Congress is going to have a hard
time convincing the average voter
that any tax burdens have been
taken off his back. He knows bet
ter. He is paying through the nose
directly and indirectly. More and
more the taxpayer is getting on to
the trick of indirect taxation that
takes money out of his pocket as
surely as though he mailed his
check to Washington, though the
tax is hidden in the prices he pays
for the goods he buys.
This fifty million dollar boost to
the army bill d~iscloses the real at
titude of the administration toward
spending the taxpayers money.
There is no need for it or justifi-
cation for it in our opinion. 1t is
money largely wasted at a time
when not a dollar should be spent
where it AN possibly be avoided.
No war threatens US. We do not
need a bigger army or more Off
GERS at this time. The country is
full of trained officers and soldiers
that can be obtained at short no.
tice if their country needs them
badly at any time.

Australia Takes Steps
to Protect Industries
From German Trade

Sydney, \. S. w, June 3-(Corre-
spondence of The Associated Press).-
Steps Of the government for the pro-
lection of industry have been outlined
by Minister of Customs and Trade
Rodgers in order to allay apprehension
regarding the danger of dumping"
when trade is resumed with Germany
next August.
He said that there is a mistaken i'm
preston in Australia and overseas that
Australia's hardness in resuming trade
with former enemy countries was due
TO vindictiveness.
"The war brought home to Austria
liza her geographical isolation and her
dependence for existence during war
time upon supplies from overseas" he
said. 1T also revealed the woefully
undeveloped state of many of our in
dustries. The present economic condi-
ton of several former enemy countries
and the depreciation of the exchange
value of the currency had largely null
lifted the tariff protection provided by
Australia. The government decided.
therefore, that it would grant a def
Hite pefIou OF immunity 10 AtSIfhllah
industries from the full blast of compe-
tition caused by the abnormal condi-
stion prevailing in many foreign coun-
tries. A space of more than three
years has been granted. On the re-
sumption of trade the government will
protect both Australian and English in
dustries from the continued effects of
such abnormal conditions.
9TH government prOnaSpd TO mt
into operation Immediately the anti
dumping provisions of the industries
preservation act and the overseas or
ganization of the customs department
has been strengthened in order to ia
%ciIitate the granting of protection to
Australian industry
