America Pays the Price of a
Vain and V;s;on1ess Po7;cu

~ PRESIDENT HARDING'S address at
Y } the opening of the National Agricul-
tura1 Congress it has been incisively
remarked that although he was most SYM
pathetic in discussing the plight of the
American farmer he carefully refrained from
mentioning the major causes of their dis
tress Indeed, he could not have mentioned
them without going into deal of discredit-
table history concerning the rejection Of the
Treaty of Versailles and admitting that the
Senate, under Republican control, "had
made CHASTITY muddle of everything and
that partisan politics was levying a tax sec
ond only to that levied by the war;
This can hardly be denied by anyone who
comedies that the economic and political
conditions of Europe, with which the for
tunes of American agriculture are virtually
linked would have been more stable and
more hopeful had not the power Of the
United States been withheld from safeguard
ing the worlds peace and fastening recoV-
cry from war. Why is the European de-
mand for American grain and cotton and
other commodities so lethargic? Not De-
cause of lessened need for them. Multi
tudes across the Atlantic die of starvation,
and multitudes exc out Wretched existence
for want of wage-paying employment; While
on this side farmers burn corn for fuel, so
beggarly is the market; and cotton, despite
it's Importance to thousands of foreign fac
tories and millions Of foreign workers, fails
to command a fair price. For these and
other products of our soil and industry
Europe's demand would be ten times what
it is if her credits were firm instead OF
critically feeble and her economic outlook
clear instead of more and more beclouded-
as it has been from the day the United
States Senate wrecked the great plan of
American cooperation in restoring and pre-
serving the worlds common veal.
Farmers duly appreciate the Presidents
sympathy, no doubt; but they would not
need sympathy now, If those who held in
their hands some two years ago the tate
of a peace-p1an formed to bulwark pros
perity had played the part of statesmen
rather than grudgeful partisans. Now that
the grim consequences of that course grow
ever more obvious, Republican leaders urge
and rightly so, that we Cooperate with
other nations to stabilize affairs far across the
Pacific. But curiously enough, they are
against cooperating to stabilize affairs
across the Atlantic with which we are imme-
diately and immensely concerned. This, at
least. is a. reasonable inference from Wash
ington's not participating in the work OF
the Preparations commission or the plans OF
the Genoa conference, both of which have
to do with matters of exceeding moment to
American trade as well as American moral
obligation. So do agriculture and industry
and business in general continue to pay for
that pride of opinion and visionless poll
tics which rejected a great covenant for
peace and co-wOrklng.

TEACH BIOGRAPHY
By H. Addington Bruce

tn HERE may be schools where biography
has as definite place in the curriculum
as history or geography or mathematics
If there are l do not know OF them. Blu.
do know that biography ought to have such 3
place.
For if there is anything children need, it is
to be helped at an early age to appreciate life
values, to have ambition stimulated, to have
self-confidence developed, and to be made
aware that aspiration plus effort is productive
of rewards worthy of attainment.
The systematic teaching of biography in a
really human fashion would contribute more
definitely to these ends than could anything
else.
If there were placed in the hands of school
children delightfully."- written textbooks giving
outlines of the lives of notable men and women
in all fields of productive human endeavor, and
if teachers devoted two or three hours week
to celebrating these outlines | am sure there
would be in the world far fewer unaccompliSh-
ing adults than is now the case.
AS things stand, children are usually given no
clear idea of life's possibilities and purpose un-
til they have already acquired false idea-and
habits in keeping with it.
In their first years they are too often per-
mitted to gain the notion that the world is
merely place for play and that life's great
aim is Self-indulgence. Sent at last to school,
information is dealt out to them coercively.
Little is done to make them really want to
study. ''You must get up your lessons" is the
burden of what they hear. Why they should
get up their lessons is not made evident to
them-at least not in way to satisfy them
that their idea of the supreme value of play
and self-i1dulgence is wrong.
They study rebelliously, therefore Ineffective
ly. Effort lodging, Self-indul ging remain to
them the great desirables. All because they
have an incorrect philosophy of life
The teaching of biography, begun early
enough, would provide precisely the corrective
needed.
Especially would it provide this if emphasis
were placed, as it always ought to be placed
On service as the criterion of greatness, and
on the possibility of notable services being rem
dered by people from the humblest as we'll as
the most favored social strata.
Instead of presenting great men as excep-
tional beings, prodigieS to be marveled at, the
teacher of biography would only have to stress
the factors that made them great in order to
satisfy his or her pupils that greatness is some
thing possible to themSelve. Biography would
then become more to them than entertainment
it would become Indictment.
And though they still would continue to have
their play time and to delight in play-aS both
children and adults Should-Study and work
would also have charms 20 them, as today study
and work commonly have not to either children
or adults
This suggestion l throw out, not diffidently,
but confidently. "The proper study of mankind
is man," is more than a poets epigram. 1t
phrases profound truth, the practical bearings
of which our schools have too long ignored.

Be1o;un,'s Tur1. From, France

~ ELGIUM'S gesture of dissatisfaction
x with her military alliance with France
- is one of a number of portents that
Brands doughty successors at Paris Will
find trouble plenty ere their fling is over
Why should Belgium wish to cancel the
ract of 1920 with so good neighbor and so
valiant an ally? The likelihood is that no
move to that end would have ben made II
temperate and liberal foreign policies mad
prevailed in the government on the SEINE.
Particular and exclusive alliances are con-
trary it is true to the spirit, if not the letter
of the League of Nations, of which both coun-
tries are embers-not only contrary, but
also needless if the League functions Alright.
In the case of Belgium and France, however,
relations are by nature SO close that no one
outside of Central Europe saw fit to object
to their agreement looking to mutual defense.
For long years prior to the World war Bel
gian neutrality had been anchor of Euro
pean peace and it was Germany's violation
of that guarantee that dew Great
Britain into the conflict. Never forgetting
Napoleon's remark, Antwerp is a pistol
pointed at the heart of England" the British
dared not suffer that strategic stronghold to
fall into the possession or even the Indirect
control of their foe. But, if their friend,
France, wished to make an ally of Belgium,
instead Of leaving her neutral, why pro-
test?
So matters might have stood if French
policies had taken the reassuring trend which
former Premier BRAND endeavored to give
them. But when extremists seized the helm,
hen the attitude of generous cooperation
changed to cynical selfshness when France,
/ the defender of freedom, was travestieG into
a role Of Prussian-like aggregresson, then
did sentiment across the channel change
and soon was changing across the Belgian
border. Keen observers doubt not that Brit
ish diplomacy has scored again; that it has
won Belgium oyer-not difficult task in the
circumstances-and has guaranteed or stands
ready to guarantee, her Wonted neutrality.
| This is one of the outgrowths of a course
against which the wisest friends of France
have persistently counseled Fortunate for
all will it be if the new regime at Paris

l RE you sporting?

a RE you sporting!
| ~ Do you play the game Of life fairly
and squarely with those about you,
| or do you cheat, and take advantage of ev-
| cry foul means to win out?
| Perhaps you have never thought what a
despicable thing it is to play upon the love,
the tenderness, the sympathy of your family
| in order to carry your point, and get your
way Consider it now, for it is about as yell
low an act any human being can be guilty
| of committing. Compared with it knocking
down a blind baby, and robbing it of it's
candy is a brave and heroic deed.
! 1t is to the everlasting shame of women
and old people that they are so often guilty
| of the unspeakable meanness Of gaining
| their ends by any crooked means within their
power, and that they take advantage Of the
| very nobleness of those with whom they deal
| to enslaVe them.
With woman, the chief Of these towards
weapons is tears. When woman can't get
what she wants any other way, she weeps
for it. because experience has taught her
that not one man in a hundred has back
bone stiff enough to stand up under the brine

into mush of acquiescence.
Men have dried womens eyes on their
honor on their fortunes, on their self-re-
spect, on their personal liberty. And women
have cried for the moon, and fool men have
risked their necks trying to get it for them
since time began, and the good old graft
game still goes on and suckers are born ev-

Mrs. A has social aspirations. She wants
to give up their old home and go to live in
a fashionable part of the town, and in a
style far in excess of their means. She also
desires to set up an automobile. Her hus-
band refuses. He explains to his wife many,
many times that they cannot afford it; that
he is just getting a good start in business
and needs every mt of his capital. Mrs A
can refute none of his arguments, so she
takes refuge in tears, and weeps, and weeps,
until poor A gives in to her and they start
on their career of folly. The man knows
that it is bound to end in ruin, but can't say

When Old Foes Shake Hands
THHEY say that Mr.. Michael Collins and
Sir James Craig met the other day and

Sir James Craig met the other day and
in all amity talked over the interlock-
ing problems of North and South Ireland.
Time was, and not long gone, when this
would have been like saying that fire and
gasoline met with a friendly, quiet hand
shake, or that battering rams and dynamite
were peaceably keeping house together Mr.
Collins, provisional head of the new Irish
free state, and Sir James, premier of Crom-
wellian Ulster, have moved and had their
mental being at the antipodes of all that
most vitality concerns the Emerald Isle; So
at least, did they and their clans suppose
But now Mr.. Collins, as the press dis
patches have it, has agreed to use his in
fluence to end the boycott on Belfast" while
the premier of the North "has offered SIM
liar services in ending the discrimination
against Catholics in Belfast industry" More
over, "The two have agreed to appoint depu-
ties to consider and report on a realign-
ment of the boundary" So turns the wind
after hundreds of stormful and weary years!
Many a conference and much mutual for
bearance will be needed no doubt ere these
long antagonistic groups are atoned to the
idea of working out their destinies together.
The present generation, save the youngest,
may pass without witnessing the triumph of
this happy Teconcilement. By some, indeed,
it is believed that while cordial relations be-
tween South and North may be brought to
pass, Ulster will never coalesce. However
that may be, it is hopefully significant that
where once was Wintry and uncompromising
bitterness, there is now the thawing process
Of give and take.
Let the leaven of true goodwill begin
to work, and men will see not only their
issues, but also one another, in different
light. They will judge more clearly and
hence more fairly. They will be reader to
remove objective causes of distrust and dis
like. They will come imperceptibly to be
co-workers and friends.

TALkS-P1ay Fair

lessly rob everyone about them of everything
they possess.
l have known women who kept their hus-
bands terrorized 18th their nerves so that
the poor men entered their own doors on
tiptoes and never dared vary an iota from
the program their wives had laid down for
their daily conduct, because if they did as
sert the slightest independence friend wife
went into spells of hysteria.
I have known women who denied their
own children every advantage of education
and dress, and association because they spent
every cent of the family income that could
be spared from the actual living, on hospi-
tails and sanitariums, and every new-fangled,
fake cure.
I knew one woman who kept her family in
abject slavery to her for twenty years be-
cause of her poor heart. She couldn't be eX-
cited because of her poor heart, and then it
was found out she didn't have any trouble
with her heart after all.
The pity that the strong feel for the weak
makes them defenseless against the selfish
ness of the feeble. They cannot strike one
who is down. They are too brave to fight
back, and that s what makes invalidism
such paying if nefarious, profession to fol-
low. 1t is to be noted that nearly all lady
invalids get we'll Immediately If their hus-
bands die, and their children go off and leave
them.
Old people openly trade on the reverence
their grandchildren have for age to enforce
their tyrannies on their families, and get
their own way. They hold the threat of
their deaths like a hangman's whip over all
about them to keep the poor wretches in or
der.

How many old people have cruelty, bru-

children with these cowardly, selfish pleas
for their own comfort! How many girls
have been kept from following love, or fame,
by some old mother or father who liked the
kind Of biscuits they made, and was willing
to doom them to barren life in order to get
them.
Perhaps none of us Is very easy to live
with, but it especially behooves those of us
who have misfortunes that appeal to the
sympathy of others, not to take advantage of
them to gain our own ends. AS we are weak,
let us be merciful.
