Keeping rhlnss From Dad


TO the Editor Of tho Evening Public LEDGER:
Sir--Surgeons operating on the stom.
ach' Of man in Chicago, recent
news dispatch stated, found in it a
doorkey that had disappeared fifty years
ago. The owner of its safe depository
acknowledged that he was present when
the key was lost" but explained he
would have got a licking had his father
discovered where the key went. So he
went on all through life, until surgical
operation disclosed his secret.
How many men treasure similarly
some secret? 1 could tell you of man
who has some bird shot he has been
carrying around for longer than fifty
years. They were planted In him as a
sequel to raid on an apple orchard,
too deep to be removed by the rude
jackknife surgery Of his companions,
but kept secret from the father, who
surely would have provided the click

Others there nre who have secrets not

escapades of boyhood days, the recol-
lections of which are cherished because
they connect busy life with a care.
free period Of glorious days.
And fathers may be very sure that
the boys Of today are storing up similar
experiences. When Cyrenus Cole, The
California Senator, visited
Washington during the late session of
Congress- which President Harding
presented with bouquet and General
Dawes with brickbat, he said he found
only two things unchanged, namely,
Uncle Joe" Cannon and the debate on
the tariff. This may also be applied
to boys. They change but little with
generations, and each knows
the hidden path to the port of missing
things"
1t is wise daddy who does see all
that goes before his eyes or hears all
that reaches his ears.

ters Of late to have It appear no CO.
hesive foreign policy has been devel-
oped by the Harding Administration
during the nineteen months II has been
in charge of the Government. It has
been argued that Mr.. Hughes has given
out Mt various times specific formula
to govern individual mattcrs-German
American participation In
Enropean economics, Soviet recogni-
tion. Mexican recognition--but that no
comprehensive statement of policy
which the world might understand and
apply to issues as they arise.
The Hughes answer to that is quite
s,mple and direct. Throughout the
League of Nations controversy every
effort was made to have 1t understood
The Repu ublican policy was to deal with
snecific questions as they arose. The
riohts and interests of the United
states vary so broadly in world affairs
INIT Individual applications Of the same
principle which the President
and Mr.. Hughes made known soon after
coming into Office have been held to have
been most satisfactory. And. 1t is con-
tended, careful study Of the various
state Department pronouncements will
reveal a consistency which mi ght not
be apparent to those dealing with sur
face Indications.

Passing Of Military Salute

TO the Editor Of the EuoninO Pablo Ledoer:
Sir--I have been much interested in
reading within the last few weeks of the
new Interpretation that has been nut
upon the use of the military salute. We
are told that 1t Is no longer necessary
for men and officers of the army and
navy to stop, come to attention, and 20
through the stiff arm and head move
ment of the military salute--that is.
unless they are upon army post grounds,
or elsewhere where there is immediate
need Of the maintenance of military dis
cipline.
This, In my opinion, is a step In the
direction of things as they should be.
It is n move In the direction of preser-
vation of the salute for the salute where
It ought to be used, and its abandon
ment as q mark of recognition on the
street. While the dropping OF. this sign
considered dispensing with courtesy,
of recognition might at first thought be
1t Is quickly seen that such Is not the
case, for the use of the salute Is almost
invariably stilted and perfunctory. You
can't help feeling that In nine cases out
of ten not only would the man rather
not be obliged to give the salute, but the
officer would. on account of the cir
cumstances, rather not be obliged to re-
ceive and return 1t.
And this IL no disrespect to the salute
or symbol itself. 1t Is only an argu-

LONESOME CLUB IN CHURCH
CUPID'S TRUSTING PLACE
Would Take Matchmaking Out Of
the "Hands Of the Devil"

Would Take Matchmaking Out Of
the "Hands Of the Devil"
New York, Oct. 23.-The "Nation-
nj Lonesome Club" social or.
ganization sponsored by the Union
Methodist Episcopal Church to com.
bat loneliness among strangers and
newcomers to the city and. incidentally,
to stimulate matchmaking, held its first
regular Sunday sessions in the parlors
of the church yesterday afternoon and
last evening. ...
The club was originated by Miss
Clara Salem, a lawyer. on the theory
that "for every boy that's lonesome
there's a girl that's lonesome. too"
and that there are thousands of each in
New York. Miss Salem said she could
not see why "the business of match.
making In big cities for longer or
shorter periods should be in the hands
of the devil"
A primary purpose Of the club is to
introduce many men and women, 40
they may have wider field of choice in
selecting mates. City life, Miss Salem
thinks, does not permit women to meet
many men under favorable circum.
stances, and they often take the first
matrimonial chance that comes along
for fear they may not have another.
The same Is true, she says, of man.

Sees Another False Alarm

To the Editor Of the Epcnfno Public Ledoer:
Sir-The question of liquor sales on
American shipping has been worked out
to the only possible conclusion and the
stage Is all set for another false alarm
as to the effect of prohibition upon
business.
Surely few can have forgotten the ter.
rible devastation that was to be wrought
upon hotels by the loss of their most
attractive features. bars and liquor

the splendid buildings that were to be
forsaken of men and left as the abode
OF rats, bats and the mournful ghosts
of former glories.

whether there is single first class ho-
tel in the land but was benefited by the
change.
Now a tremendous amount of pub.
licity has been given to prophecies that
the American ships must follow the
Flying Dutchman" into oblivion,
Brilliant cartoonists have dedicated
their art to pictures of drSves of happy
tourists trooping aboard the wet"
ships Of foreign interests, while one or
two dark, dOur "drys" straggle TO the
sorrowful American ships. Why. il
must turn out just that way, of course.
Also the foreign ships are to desert
New York and reduce It to the status of

nre to be installed as successors to the
Empire port: Picture widespread labor

Ut course 1t cant possibly be other

ccy, but it will be immensely otherwise
by practical development. Let's

Cause for Relolclno


10 the Editor Of the Evening Public LEDGER:
Sir--America still adhercs to her old =
time definition Of q gentleman as "a
man who works. and continues to
look upon the idler as a loafer and a
bum, regardless Of how much wealth he
may possess. That in the main she Is
justified in this attitude seems to be
the experience of one George F. Brown,
of Stonebridge, Mass. Mr.. Brown has
plenty of money and nothing to do. He
also has intelligence. He says so him. I.
self.
MIR: Brown, It seems, has been unable
to find intelligent companionship among
the other idle rich in this country. and
80 he has departed for England, where
he expects to take his place in a more
pleasant environment. He explains that
In this country the middle class has
corner on intelligence. and he adds:
1.-The middle class is the backbone of
the country, the men that won the
war. who make their wages with their
minds. They go home sober, due to
prohibition, which escapes the upper
rich class, who get their supply of
liquors from the bootleggers and no.
body cares. l am going to England to
join the leisure class that has intelli.
gence which | could have enjoyed in
America had the luck to be born in
the middle Glass;
One can't help feeling glad that Mr..
Brown has to seek elsewhere for 'in-
telligent idlers." No nation has such
a superabundance of intelligence that
II can afford to let 1t lie around idle.
We may all rejoice that the American
system has succeeded in drafting so
many of our intelligent citizens that an
intelligent man like Mr.. Brown must
go abroad for company.
