Speaking of Ubs and Do,0ns

THE demon statistician arises to an
nounce that there are 10000 eleva-
tors in this country and that they
carry more persons than all the railroads, sur
face street cars, elevated railways and sub
ways combined.
The elevator is a device perfected by
Americans, who first Of all the peoples of the
earth went in for skyscrapers and simply had
to devise a means of getting up and down in
them, other than miles of stairway.
The elevator is older by far than any of
the other types of transportation mentioned.
1t was more than two thousand years ago that
Archimed es-the same gentleman who is said
t. have discovered the principle of leverage,
and is quoted as saying that if he had full
erum on which to rest his lever he could raise
the world-it was Archimedes, Green lnathe-
matician, who invented Flying chair a
crude elevator raised and lowered by ropes
and operated by that great l source of the
early ages, man-power.
Nothing much was done with this first type,
and it was in 1850 that George Fox invented
a steam power elevator, lifted by a screw
plunger. Then came tie hydraulic type, still
p1enteously in use. And then the electric
elevator, some thirty-five years ago.
1t is an open question if the elevator in
spired the skyscraper, or the other way
round, as they are interdependent. At any
rate the combination is to be charged with in
creasing the congestion of population and
credited with the de1 elopment of fireproof
building construction.
Also it may be remembered that the eleva-
tor is the only form of free transportation we
enjoy today.

DOROTHY DIX TALKS-TO A BRIDE

tude of courtship, and to spend hours every
day assuring you that you are the only
woman in the world for him, ana that your
ewes are like violets drenched in dew, and
that there is nothing else on earth so beau
tifuI as the way your hair curls on the
nape of your neck. After marriage, man
has got to get down to the real business OF
life. which is making living for his fam
lily, and he hasn't time for romat1c rnapso-
dies.
Remember that a beefsteak is just as
much token of affection as bunch OF
violets. and that man proves his love bet
ter by his deeds than by his words. Men
who are strongest on love talk are gener-
ally weakest on performance, and most OF
the wives of the Sentimental Tommies take
in boarders to support them.
My third tip is BE REASONABLE. Don't
treat a grown man as if he were an idiot
child. Accord him the right to have tastes
and opinions of his own. Dopi+~-ake him
eat what you like and wear the clothes you
prefer. Grant him the privilege OF having
ideas of his own. Don't require him TO
punch the home time clock as If he were
domestic slave. Don't feel yourself ill
used if he isn't dancing attendance on you
every minute that he isn't at work. Moth
ing makes a man so sorry he married as
to find out that matrimony has deprived
him of every particle of freedom, and that
his wife is his jailer.
NV next tip is PLAY THE GAME. I'm
less you are an imbecile, you settled GER
tain questions before marriage. You found
out exactly how much money your hus-
band made, and you, therefore, knew in
Just what style you could live. II you
married a poor man, struggling to get
start in the world, you knew that you would
have to economic, and work, and save, and,
that being the case, you are welcher I'M
less you cheerfully comply with the con-
ditions You have no right to cry, and
whine, and complain because you haven't
the things that rich women have, and if
you run your husband in debt for finery
you can't afford you are female crook and
blackguard.
Nor are you playing the game unless you
make your husband comfortable home,
and give him good food. The woman who
is slack housekeeper defaults as much on
her part of the matrimonial bargain as the
man who doesn't support his family.
My final tip is FORGET YOURSELF.
Don't be forever thinking what your hus-
band owes to you. Think of what you owe
to him. Don't worry about whether he
pays you all the little attentions that are
your due, worry about whether you show
him all the tenderness and consideration,
and kindness that are due to him. For it
is only when we love someone so much
better than we love ourselves, and seek his
or her happiness above our own, that we
find happiness for ourselves.
To be a good wife is great career, lit
tie bride, but you can achieve it if you
will.

TN HIS is the month of weddings
1 never see bride marching up the
- church aisle in all her filmy finery,
with her face glorified with that look OF
love, and rapture, and romance with that
look of one whose dreams have all come
teue. that a. woman never wears but once in
lifetime, without wanting to take her
aside as soon as the ceremony is over and
say to her:
Dear little girl, you have come to the
parting Of the ways. You are beginning
real life today. UP to now you have had
nothing on your mind but your hair. You
have had no responsibilities Your parents
have directed your destiny, but today you
take your fate in your own hands. Hence
forth, you must play the game off your
own bat, and whether you win or lose.
whether you are happy or miserable, de-
ponds upon your own skill, and pep, and
courage, and sportsmanship."
/ know that when brides start out, on
their honeymoon they carry excess baggage
in the way of advice Nevertheless, I can
not refrain from adding few words of
counsel and my first tip is this:
STUDY YOUR MAN. Bring every par
ticle of intelligence that you possess, every
bit of womans w.t. and intuition. to trying
to ferret out the kinks and quirks of the
disposition Of the husband you have just
acquired You smile at this advice for you
are perfectly sure that your John is an open
book to you, and that you understand him
as not even his mother does.
That is where you are mistaken, my dear.
Marriage changes man as completely as
if he had changed the color of his eyes
and his skin. He is no more the same man
to his wife that he is to the business world,
to his family and friends, than if he was a
different person.
Therefore, begin your married life by
making complete survey of your husband,
and charting out his little peculiarities and
weaknesses. Thus shall you know where
to erect your Keep Off the Grass signs on
his pet prejudices, and weaknesses, and be
able to avoid treading on those subjects
that bring about rows, and arguments, and
chickering's
My second tip is DON'T EXPECT TOO
MUCH OF YOUR MAN. OF course, every
bride believes that she has married a COM
bination of Sir Galahad, and moving pic
ture hero, and Solomon, and Mr.. Rookie
Teller, and Job. Therefore she expects him
to always be gallant, and handsome, and
wise and patient, and to make plenty of
money, and she is frightfully disillusioned
when she sees him with two days stub
BILE of beard on his face, and finds out that
he gets peeved about foolish little things,
and that he says nasty things when dinner
isn't on time.
Just consider what an unpleasant creature
an ideal husband would be to live with day
after day, and be thankful that you've got
one who has so many faults that he can
not afford to be too critical of yours.
Above all, don't expect man after he
is married to keep up the lover-like atti-

Pass the State Audit Bin

| IN cogently reasoned letter to the men,
| | bers of the General Assembly Of Georgia
on the subject of a state auditing de-
partment, Senator Frank G. Manson, Of the
Thirty-fifth district, directs attention to GER
tain facts which no citizen and assuredly no
legislator can afford to ignore.
| In the course of the last five years, he
| points out, the State has lost through "inan-
| cial Irregularities sums ranging in amount
| from fourteen hundred to forty-three thou
sand dollars and aggregating upwards of
one hundred thousand dollars, the larger part
of which went unrecovered. If this be not
evidence enough that a state auditor is
needed, then no business necessity can be
demonstrated. And if the general assembly
will not act upon this outcrying record, then
what appeal can ever avail?
Under an efficient system of auditing,
these irregularities either would not have
arisen or else would have been detected be-
fore they waxed serious. The cost of such
supervision for the whole five years would
have been negligible as compared with the
losses suffered because it was lacking.
Imagine private business spending some
twelve million dollars annually without regu-
lar and frequent audits of it's sundry de-
partments! Yet the state of Georgia is
operating upon that well-nigh incredible
basis.
There was introduced by Senator Manson
at the 1921 session of the legislature a bill
to establish Department of State Auditor"
So earnestly was the measure recommended
by the governor and officials generally, and
SO heartily approved by public opinion, that
it's enactment was considered foregone. It
passed the Senate without a dissenting vote
"But the House eve quote Senator Manson)
failed to take action, as the rules commit
tee did not report the bill out until the last
night of the session, when it was placed on
the calendar" Regrettable as was the delay
it is gratifying that this important bill is now
on the house calendar, so that it can be
acted upon early in the Forthcoming session
Surely there will be no deferring in matter
of such material import to the taxpayers and
to orderly, efficient administration of public
affairs! Let the bill be passed, and speedily.

HOPE From Genoa

TTHE Genoa Conference looks better in
perspective than it did in the midst
of it's bejumbled sessions. If it was
failure in that it formulated no explicit plan
of relief for Europes needs, it was also a
success in that the thirty-three represented
nations came to clearer view and a broad
er understanding of one another than once
would have been deemed possible.
There were much to be regretted errors as
when the Germans, thinking to drive a
shrewd deal, effected their Independent pact
with the Russians and thereby cut them
selves off from immediate hopes of an inter-
national loan. The Rapallo treaty has been
described as ga compact of trade where
neither party has anything to sell at the pres
emit time nor anything with which to buy"
Likewise, the Russians were exceedingly vol
uble to no purpose. And the French, at
times, might well have remembered that the
better part of valor is discretion.
But when all this and much of the mega
tive is noted, it remains that the conference
revealed and encouraged a general desire for
peace, that is highly significant and hopeful.
One can hardly imagine such result is
suing from an international conference dec
ade ago. Then the delegates would have
gone home more than ever suspicious, more
than ever imbued with the idea that war
was fated necessity for which it behooved
their governments to prepare with the utmost
speed. But at Genoa the differences and
dangers themselves served but to strengthen
the will for peace and to rebuke the slight
est gesture of aggression.

Conva1escent France

T HE latest reports from France indicate
that Germany is not alone in great
industrial drive.
Says Herbert S. Houston, publisher OF Our
World magazine, lately touring in France
THE work of reconstruction he's been steady
and remarkable indeed. 1t seems little short
of miracle to see what the people of France
have wrought in the two years since last
trayersed the war section Everyone in
France is at work and the picture of nation
a.. industry presented cannot be matched, l
believe, anywhere else in the world"
Mr.. Houston adds that France daily is re
futing the libel that she is miliLaristic." He
says that France is somewhat disturbed
by the suggestion on one hand that she meet
her debts to the United States anG Great
Britain and on the other that she reduce the
reparations due her by Germany,
1t is not surprising that the logical French
mind regards this idea as contradictory
'sBut If the fruits of victory are found dis
appointing" Mr. Houston says. France is
accepting Il en- philo sophically.''
Philosophy with a strong backing of in
dustry is what all the civilized world needs

THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE
By DR.. Frank Crane

"The Mind in the Making is a recent
book by James Harvey Robinson. 1t is not
a good title, but it is a good book, one of
the best 1 have read in long while, and
worthy of a place side by side with John
Dewey's Reconstruction and Philosophy
Here is a sentence that gives you an idea
of the theme of the volume:
IF some magical transformation could be
produced in mans ways of looking at them
selves and their fellows no inconsiderabIe
part of the evils which now afflict society
would vanish away or remedy themselves
automatically. There would, for instance,
be no likelihood Of another great war; the
whole problem of labor and capital would
be Transformed; national arrogance race
luminosity, political corruption and ineffi-
cheney would all be reduced below the dan
ger point. AS an old Stole proverb has it..
men are tormented by the opinions they
have of things rather than by the things
themselves
What Professor Robinson undertakes to
do in this book is to show us some OF the
things that make our thinking confused
and bad.
He points out how we have all taken ad-
vantage of the marvellous advance in in
ventions, but we go on thinking the same
old errors that people thought centuries ago.
We are trying to manage politics by
methods and with ideas that have long been
exploded. The relation or nations TO eacn
other today is hardly at all like that re-
lation was in the last century even.
All our civilization is but thin skin Of
culture. OVERLAPPING thousands of years of
ignorance and perhaps millions of years of
incoherent animalism, and lot of the
traits of imperfect adolescence cling to us.
The workman prides himself on being
up to date in the garage, while in the
senate he uses methods that were outgrown
a century ago. He shows us how our
| thoughts are vitiated by the tremendous
momentum of tradition. How what we call
our opinions are merely efforts to justify
our own egotism, instead of efforts to ar
rive at the truth, and how the old heather
idea of taboo accounts for many of the
things which we call convictions.
| 1t is one of the most significant books
l have seen recently, and one with which
| every thinker should be acquainted
At least it will make him less cocksure
and a little doubtful of his own wisdom,
and doubt is the beginning of wisdom.
| One great advantage is that he shows
us the fluidity of truth. For instance, this
| sentence:
eve must look forward to ever new
! predieaments and adventures. Nothing is
| going to be settled in the sense in which
things were once supposed to be settled
Tor the simple reason that knowledge will
probably continue to increase, and will in
! eVitably alter the world with which we have
! to make terms
! Altogether a most stimulating book and
written with no technical snobbery, but I'M
| derstandable of the people
