Fashionable winter capes are

stop THAT"

The more intense you are about the things you believe
or the way you behave, the more you will be prompted to
abolish those who differ with you. So claims Felix Adler,
writing in The World Tomorrow.
While his psychological theory may not hold true for all
of us, it unquestionably explains the Poll Py attitude OF
many prohibitionists and blue law advocates in general.
For instance, a person who dHhkes cats easily could
be induced to join a League for Killing All Cats.
Many a person is an ardent prohibitionist simply because,
when he once samples whiskey, he disapproves OF the taste.
Not liking it himself, he unconsciously formed a complex"
for obsession) against others who really enjoy their liquor.
The rule works similarly with the Red Nose Gent, who wants
everybody to have booze because he likes it himself.
The Society-Against believes at the bottom of its heart
that the members of the Society-For are crazy and that there
should be some way of aboishing them.
1t is primitive instinct, DR.. Adler contends, for us to like
those who are like ourselves and to dislike those who are
unlike us. Here you have the explanation of race prejudice
and also the cause of many wars.
These disikes shortcircuit a lot of careers that might
otherwise be successful. The chronic ~busybody devotes so
much time to prying into and regulating the affairs of others
that his own affairs suffer by neglect.
When a ~busybody's Poll Py instinct becomes sufficiently
diseased to be a phobia, he is apt to run for public office or
become a reformer.
Democracy ideally is a condition in which the individuals
conduct is interfered with as little as possible by outside
forces, interference being tolerated only when the conduct of
the individual affects the welfare Of others.
Democracy dies at the roots when personal dislikes or
individual prejudices are compusorily grated onto the public
at iarge-as, especially for example, certain phases of movie
censorship.
We will not be surprised if the League for the Suppress
sion OF Spring Onion Eaters grows into a national political
party one of these days.

A. The Records of the American

9. How a / demagnetize my
watch?. w. C. K.
A. The watch may be demagne-
tized by placing 1t in a coil OF wire

@. Where do scorpions hide? r.
A. They usually hide by day in
~crevices under stones. or in dark
holes. Some species enter houses
and hide in boots and shoes and
when disturbed attempt to sting hui
man beings. The sting Is very pain
full, but rarely, If ever fatal. How
scorpions which give the appearance

O.. Which is the richest agricul-
tural county In the United States?
N. P. d.
