SPORTING SPIRIT

If you want to get a mans real number, study him when
he's playing, not at work. Ten minutes on a golf course, for
instance, reveals more about a player real character than q
week in his office.
You can also analyze q man by the recreation he instinc-
lively seeks. Real leaders have taken to golf because it's a
game in which they can actually participate as players. I'm
like baseball, a form Of theatrcals in which spectators take
no part except paying the bills.
Recreation is the key to the psychology of nations, the
same as of individuals. The Germans accurately mirrored
their national traits by their turnverein gymnastic and ath-
letic movement-the members doing the same thing with
solidarity, sternness and machinelike functioning as one
united movement. This spirit, of subordinatng the individual
to the organization, was the wartime spirit of the German
army and the home people back Of the lines.
In countries which have the bull-fght as national recrea
tion, the people naturally have the bul[fght spirit-especially
hero-worship and explosive emotions. Did the bul-6ght spirit
of the people create this bloody and cruel form of contest,
or did the contest make the people sink to it's own level?
Which came frst-egg or chickenf
The Chinese take to chess, dominoes and gambling, in
preference to active physical sports. So naturally the Chi
brains, and not inclined toward physical contests such as
fist fights or war.
America and England have the Anglo-Saxon team spirit,
which asserts itself in games like cricket, baseball and foot
ball.
Each player constantly tries to make a star play for him
self, but his indlviduahsm does not make him forget that
the team comes first. So one player is constantly watching
to cover or neutralize the errors of his ~eam-mat
Under this team attitude there is a genuine sporting spirit
such as you find in no other nations. The team may be beaten
but there is no personal humiliation involved. The loser cheers
the victor, the victor cheers the loser. They shake hands and
practically forget the game, getting ready for another.
The British fought the Beers Then, about Is years later,
you found the Beers helping the British fight. The team
spirit had drawn them into the British team.
The French have no team spirit in their personalities. For
sport they turn to fenc1ng-two opponents, one to be victor,
one the vanqushed. It's all highly individualstic, no CO.
operation, no getting together and shaking hands after the
duel.
Probably this explains why France is unable to do team
work even with her closest wartime ally, England. HFrance
goes it alone"

THE REFEREE

(By Albert Apple)

Destruction
Ofhand you can rattle off the
names of at least twenty military
leaders who won lasting fame by de-
stroying life and property.
But what do you know about Ed
ward Jenner? England, his native
country, has been honoring the one
hundredth anniversary of his death.
Jenner was the physician who dis
covered how to prevent smallpox by
vaccination.
This discovery, according to many
scientists, has saved probably a
thousand lives to every life de-
stroyed in the last century by wars.
Remember his name. Without his
discovery. you might be dead now.
Radio
Photographs, sent by wireless, are
being received in Washington, d. c.,
in the laboratory of the inventor,
c. Francis Jenkins. Their transmits
sion, on the NOF wave length of 425
meters, may have been heard by you
and improperly called static. I'm
canny, to hear photographs" Quite
plainly the Jenkins process has sent
pictures of President Harding and
others.
Jenkins goal is radio movies. With
good health you should see them
before 1880.
HifaIuting
A big store in New York City ad-
vertises canine accoutrements."
The old way of putting 1t was dog
collars, muzzles, etc" Such descrip-
ton is becoming obsolete in our age
of fancy talk.
Vase factories are masquerading
as pottery studios"
The plain store has become a
"shoppe."
Political rings call themselves
"blocs."
It's a great age for verbal four
fushing-Big Talk.
Taxes
If the approach of March Is, first
income tax payment, Is creating an
alum taste in your mouth, the sugar
coating to the pill is that you'd be a
lot worse off in England.
Take a single man. If his income
is $4,000 a year he pays $50 national
income tax in the United States and
1858 in England. On $4,000 income
the American pays $3.50, E~nglishman
1915. And so on upward. On 100000
income the English tax is $500,
American only SLIGO.
Stage
w Villain ~. bIduys lIlGdliICdI Ilo-
Queer, claims our critics are over
estimating the players from Moscow
Art Theatre who have made quite
a sensation in New York.
Brady champions the American
stage as second to nom in the world
in the number of fine artists it has
produced. He thinks the Moscow
players look better largely because
they come from abroad.
Psychologically, this sounds plaus-
ible. Peculiar trait of Americans:
Everything looks better at a dis
lance. We have the world cham
pionship at panning ourselves.
Rare
A single postage stamp, issued by
a postmaster before the first govern
ment postal issue in 1S47, brings
s631 at auction. 1t would have sold
for $3.50 If it hadn't had a crease
and a too closely trimmed margin.
Yet the stamp itself is absolutely
useless.
Value depends on utility, beauty,
sentimental associations and-as In
the case of the stamp-on rarity.
The desire to possess something rare
is sheer vanity. That's why SO many
people over-value their w 1mpor-
lance.

UP TO PERTH AMBOY

Perth Amboy must plan to give Mayor Moore of Philadelphia
a big welcome when he comes to this city within the mex. two or
three weeks to talk about the proposed ship canal across the state.
While the Philadelphia executive is interested in waterways in
general, particularly the development of the inland waterways
along the Atlantic coast, he and the organization which he heads,
are, in a sense, fighting for Perth Amboy.
When a big project like the ship canal is built it cannot help
but be Of particular advantage to certain localities, as we'll as of
general advantage to the whole country. Perth Amboy is so for
mnately located as to get the greatest benefit from this ship canal
project. 1t will make this section Of the port of New York the ter
minal for the shipping that is bound to pass through the water
way. It will attract much shipping here and will cause new indus
tries to be established.
With the Raritan Terminal and Waterways Association ac-
lively behind this movement and with the support of the Atlantic
Deeper Waterways Association, there is every reason to believe
at something can be accomplished. 1t is for Perth Amboy, which
IDS to gain SO much, to be up and doing in this cause. Here is
@sug that will help the city. If there is any civic pride here
ny desire to help boost Perth Amboy, it will b9 shown

ment is going to spend $4,000 this
next year preparing the plans for the
renovation.
The electric light bill at the White
House comes to $500 a year. The
bill is kept down to that figure by
virtue of the fact that electricity for
the mansion costs only 3 cents a kill
owat hour, as compared with about
10 cents for the same unit of current
paid by the average householder.
One of the members of the White
sees to it that the lights keep burn
ing. The light bill includes the cost
of lighting the grounds and green
houses as we'll as the house itself.
In these days of scarcity of SER
wants we hear of fantastic wages
paid to household help: but the
White House hired girl, the highest
paid one there, gets only $35 a
month. Perhaps it is the prestige of
her position that keeps her from
quitting the job cold, Just as mill
lionaires r glad enough to get the
$4,000 cabinet jobs.
The maids at the White House,
however, are not general house
workers, but merely housemaids and
laundresses. Most OF the servants
are men. There is a manager at
St,560 a year, and, except for the
engineer, who draws the same pay,
he is the highest salaried employe.
The head butler gets $40 a month.
Contrary to what society fiction and
drama would teach us, he is not the
proud monarch of below-stairs but Is
outranked-in pay. at any rate-by
the four footmen, the chef and sec
ond cook, and the head houseclean-
err. The chef gets $3.50 a year.
The $4,000 spent annually in
maintaining the White House proper
is but a fraction of the cost of main
tanning the Presidents whole estab-
lishment. 1t costs $4,000 a year to
pay the people who work in his
office, and he spends $4,000 for sta
tionery, kilograms, telephone, books,
and other business supplies, includ-
ing automobiles. He has a $4,000
printing allowance, and can draw
$685. 900 for travel expenses. The
government maintains a White
House police force of thirty privates
and three officers at a cost of $50, 900
per annum. The total bill, including
the Presidents salary, is about
$500, 900 a year.
