Why Is It?

Why does the barber cut your face, And then with fiendish art, Rub caustic on the selfsame place To make it burn and smart!

MIR. Ford Would Scrap the Gold
STANDARD

Henry Ford has abandoned his cam
paign against the international Jew
and has launched another nationwide
campaign for currency reform. Fords
plan for reorganization of the Amer
lean money system calls for establish
ment Of a new basis of value behind
money, eliminating gold. It is his
theory that money should be issued
against great government projects
which in themselves create work,
such as the Muscle Shoals project. In
other words,- currency according to his
idea should, be based upon natural
wealth, rather than upon gold. This
is in reality the old discarded green
back theory of long ago. "The money
question:" says Mr.. Ford, "is vital"
s"The world cannot get back to work
and prosperity until we have estab-
listed our money Oh basis of pro
ductive energy. Our money must ere
ate work." 80; =.
1--WE have all the gold in the world.
We have millions of unemployed. Ger
many has no gold. Germany has no
unemployed. Germany is the busiest
country in Europe"
We have little faith in Mr.. For,Ps
money theory and fear that it would
not work out in practice. However
his ideas are worth thinking about.
A man who has the biggest bank bal
Ance in the history Of the world no
doubt knows something about money
and his ideas are worth considering.

THE PLAY.

The boy and the girl adventures
who were in the House Of Secrets
after all their adventures were now
at the play which was given for them
by many Of the little creatures who
lived there. 49, Isl,
The boy and the girl saw that after
the curtain went up for the first act
that all these little creatures acting
in the play were pulling at a great
sheet. They all pulled in different d.
rections, and each snarled and said
he or she was right.
Suddenly the sheet gave way and
shreds of it were here and shreds of it
were there, and all was in confusion
and very much mixed up,
The curtain went down on the first
act then. = - ~
"The second act" someone shouted.
The curtain went up again. And
everyone now was pulling in the same
direction. - ",'-
Voices were low, each was offering
helpful opinion, but no one was say
ing that he or she was the only one to be
considered. Everyone thought of each
other, no one was left behind and no
one was trampled upon, as had hap
pened in the first act.
The curtain went down again.

Once more the curtain went up and
there, on the stage, was small-sized

and that, but all in perfect order.

he was always the life in any crowd.
Later he edited the Duluth News
