what all radicals do. They condemn
the government and denounce the Con
sitution, but as soon as they get into
trouble they claim the protection of
the Constitution and the laws enacted
under it.
"That reminds me Of another part Of
President Harding's speech to the
Daughters of the American Revolution.
He said, 1T is not right for anybody
on earth to have the fortunes, the
privileges, the favors and the oppor-
tunities of American citizenship with
out assuming every duty and every
obligation thereof He was talking
particularly about people of other
countries who come here to live, but
what he said applies just as well to
people who were born here. We can
possibly excuse people who were born
in other countries if they do not be-
come thoroughly American, but there
is no excuse for native Americans who
are continually agitating against
everything American. They are Bene-
dict Arnolds in their hearts even if
they do not actually betray the coun-
try in time of war. All they need is
the opportunity and someone who is
willing to pay their price.
"During the session of the Daugh-
ters Of the American Revolution, the
president of the organization declared
in an address that there are 5000
school teachers in this country who
are opposed to American ideals and in
stitutions and who are spreading anti
American sentiment. I believe much
of this could be counteracted If every
state and every count and every
school district wouli see that every
child learns tbs American Creed

ing ordinances. Tine division In ques-
ton has just issued 'Zoning Primer
prepared by the advisory committee,
which sets out in simple language ex-
actly what this undertaking is. 1t de-
hnes zoning as the application Of com
mon sense and fairness to the public
regulations governing the use Of pri-
vate real estate. 1t Is a painstaking
honest effort to provide each district
or neighborhood, as nearly as prac-
tlcable, with such protection and just
such liberty as are sensible in that
particular district. 1t avoids the error
of trying to apply the same building
regulations to every part Of city or
town, regardless of whether it is a
suburban residence section or fac
tory district or business and flnan-
cinl center. 1t fosters civic spirit by
creating confidence in the justice and
stability of the protection afforded.
Further paragraphs point out that zon-
ing protects property and health; re-
duces the cost of living by rendering
unnecessary the destruction of great
numbers of expensive buildings"

INVESTING MONEY AT HOME
Faith in ones Own Community Has
Been the Foundation Of Many
Immense Fortunes

An Investment is only as sound as
the permanence of its security. Land,
1t is my contention, is the soundest of
all investments.
A case in point:
The land upon which the New York
stock exchange is constructed is prob
ably one of the most valuable plots
in the world. Almost with each tick
of the clock fortunes are made and
lost on the exchange floor. A
Yet, through all depressionsa pan
les and money stringeneies thatNAave
hit the market, the value of the land
upon which the exchange stands has
steadily increased.
Stocks may rise and stocks may fall
but the permanence in value of the
exchange site goes on forever Cy-
clones, either of the financial or phys
ical brand, cannot destroy the secur-
ity of land investments, because the
land, as the basis of all wealth, Is its
own surety.
Another line on the soundness of
land as an investment may he had by
analyzing the basis of many of New
York city's oldest family fortunes.
Those families that now stand high
est en- the social and financial calen-
dar are invariably the ones whose an
cestors invested In land, and succeed
ing generations followed the sensible
policy of their progenitors. There can
be named many families, the wealth
of which. founded on investment in
New York city real estate, has been
dissipated by its being employed and
invested In other mediums by the
heirs. But there are many who stand
pre-eminently wealthy and distin-
guished today because their faith in
land never diminished from colonial
times to the present-Joseph P. Day

TWO IDEAS
BY DR.. Frank Crane

tn HERE are two ideas that have been
Fostering me. One Of them is how the
world is but reflection Of our own
spirit. The other is how much of our life
is pure imitation.
We are very apt to judge the world by
ourselves. For mankind is the great mirror
in which the soul of the Individual sees it.
self
I am very shy of concentrations. When a
man says everybody does so and So every
body is like that, or everybody feels so,
suspect that he is talking about himself.
In TACT there are as many worlds as there
are people to look at the world. The sun is
smiling, the tOm-tits are merrily cheeping,
the peacock is preening, and all nature is
joyous to the young fellow in love; while
to the miserable man with crouch the
plumes
''Facts are nothing" said Jean Moreau,
''but the ideas they signify the analogies
they invoke, are everything"

can go through the world and find it a
very decent kind of place.
There is in all societies." says AIexan-
der Dumas "a certain proportion of hon
est folks. Thus, taking the two of US here,
there is at least one honest man"
The other idea is that of imitation

think I am possibly rehashing some thought

@. What is ambergris? H. S. H.
A. Ambergris is a fatty secretion formed
in some sperm whales. 1t is taken from
whales directly, but more often is found
floating in the water, especially in the waters
of the tropics. 1t is also found cast up on
beaches in Jumps, which sometimes exceed
200 pounds in weight. On exposure to the
air it develops sweet, earthly odor, in place
Of its original disagreeabIe odor. Ambergris
has high commercial value as a material
used in the manufacture of perfumes, and
the price is increasing, due to the rarity
of the sperm whale and growing demand for
the material:
@. How is it possible to tell whether cof-
fee has been adulterated? H. G. L.
A. A good test is to put a portion of the
ground coffee in a glass partly filled with
water, shake the mixture well, and then set
aside for moment and watch it's appear
ance. Pure coffee contains a large quantity
OF oil, and, for this reason, a great number
OF the particles will float Nearly all coffee
substitutes are heavier than water and will
sink to the bottom If there is a large de-
post in the bottom of the glass, the coffee is
adulterated.
