MOTHERS TIiRONE

A great deal is being said and
written about woman's position.
Superficial men and women are talk
ing ABOUT the broader field for wo-
men. about womans opportunities,
about her equality with man, and
about her rights. 1t would he most
difficult to fnd a series Of subjects
more disgusting, more superficial
and inimical to woman's position.
1t may be that some poor, neglect.
ell, long-suifering and over-burdened
wife has listened to the sirens song
OF the larger liberties Of woman.
She no doubt longs for the day when
she can open the front gate and
stroll the sidewalks Of unimpeded
female liberty.
It may be these sentiments were
born in the brain of some masculine-
ly inclined women. They have
watched their poor degenerate
brothers marching forth as prOdigai
sons and wondered why they could
not have the same rights.
Whether these subjects are dis
cussed seriously or frivolously, all
will be compelled to arrive at the
conclusion that the highest, broad
est, deepest and grandest place on
earth is woman's indestractible
throne-Home, sweet Home.
You cannot send women to the
fields without neglecting the front
door Of Gods mansion-Home, sweet
Home. You cannot put women in
the positions Of masculine competi-
ton without turning the children
over to the Juvenile court and the
cold charity OF the state. You can
not put women in competition with
men and continue to populate the
earth You cannot find a substitute
for Mother.
The position which rears its head
above the sweep Of winds and the
flight of birds is woman's God-cre-

NON OBSERVANCE OF
OUR SUNDAY LAWS

The attitude Of some of the
thoughtless, wild young men of
this vicinity toward the Sab
bath day is alarming. Almost
every Saturday night and Sun
day number may be seen un-
der the influence of intoXi-
cants, 6'isgracing themselves,
humiliating their families and
rendering themselves more than
obnoxious to a quiet and peace
able citizenship. The desecra-
ton, as practiced by these reck-
less violato-s, is answerable
not only to the laws of the
lane but to a Power that does
not accept a paltry sum of
money to settle a breach of His
laws.
They become more bcazen,
more odious and even insulting
to the people.
The inclination to divert

stands were Gun by individuals

hibiting this desecration and it

EDISON-FORD PLANS
ATTACK ON INTEREST
Abolition Of Rent No More Plausl-
Bile Than Abolition Of Pay
on Loans, Expert Shows.

II no more unreasonable to pay IN
terest on a loan Of money than to
pay rent on a house, declares William
T. Foster, Director OF the Pollack
Foundation for Economic Research. in
exposing the fallacy OF the attack on
interest charges by Henry Ford and
Thomas A. Edison in their commodity
money scheme to do away with the
present financial system. Mr.. Fosters
argument is reviewed in the present
article which is one Of a series pre-
pared by the American Bankers Asso-
citation.
"The Ford-Edison commodity money
plan is regarded as a step toward the
abolition of all interest charges" Mr..
Foster says. Interest says the
Dearborn Independent, is a tax that
few ancient tyrants would have dared
impose. Interest in actual modern
practice is a contrivance whereby all
production is taxed by parasites, and
whereby money is given a supremacy
over men, material and management
which 1t cannot sustain
Renting Money
But is there really anything more
terrible about paying for the use Of
money than about paying for the use
Of anything else? Suppose a farmer
finds himself in need Of a harvesting
machine, and without enough money
to buy one. In that case he can either
borrow a machine Of Neighbor Brown
or borrow money and buy a machine
The farmer would consider 1t right
to pay in some way for the use of the
machine. Why should he expect to
borrow money-which is honored in
the markets in payment for tha same
machine-wthout paying for tue use
of the money?
NOW let us suppose that the farm
er uses the machine so successfully
that he saves a thousand dollars.
With that money he can buy a farm
and he can let Neighbor Brown have
the use of it. Neighbor Brown natu-
rally would expect to pay rent. In
stead Of buying the farm, however. he
could lend the thousand dollars to his
neighbor in order that his neighbor
might buy the farm. In that case
Neighbor Brown should expect to pay
for the rent of the money. All this
seems clear. When the transactions
are as simple as these 1t is plain that
there is Just as great propriety in
charging for the use Of money as in
charging for the use of things that
money will buy.
Loaned Money Builds a School
I'VE may assume, however, that the
farmer does not want to buy land and
Neighbor Brown does not want 70
borrow money. In that case the
farmer deposits his thousand dollars
in a bank and the bank pays him in.
terest for the use of his money. But
the bank can pay interest only II 1t
makes profitable use of his money
Now the bank finds that the city
needs a high-school building, and has
decided to borrow enough money to
construct it. In order to obtain the
money the city has issued bonds, each
Of which is promise to pay one thou.
sand dollars at a specified date, and
interest in the meantime at a specified |
rate. The bank buys one of these
bonds. Thus the farmer has had a
part in providing the city with a
school building; and the farmer has
Just as much right to expect interest
for the use of his money as though he
had loaned the money directly or in.

tuning In distant stations. As to Sig
nal strength. I have found very little
difference to result from using or omit
ting the plate variometer.
The advantages Of the set here de-
scribed may be summed up as follows.
The controls are very few and simple !;
the appearance is such as to recon-
mend it; the operation is highly eff
cient and the cost is very low.
The following is brief description
Of the construction:
The panel Is Of 3-16-inch bakelite,
Q by IA Inch. The polishing is done
with a sheet Of No. emery. moistened
with olive oil, followed by clean, dry
piece of flannel.
The holes are drilled as shown in
Fig. 8. The drilling can be done with
an ordinary hand drill. The holes for
the mounting screws Of the condenser
must be drilled to fit the type Of con-
denser used.
The antenna series condenser is
mounted at the left end Of the panel,
and controlled by the knob and dial.
Any .001 MT. condenser may be used.
A balanced condenser would probably
prove advantageous In fine tuning, but
1t is not necessary.
lnduetanee Mountlngs.
Probably the most difficult part Of
the construction of this set is the maxi
ing and mounting Of the inductances.
The main. or stationary. inductance is
wound on piece Of bakelite tubing
81 inches In diameter, and 5A inches
long. Using No. "a D. @. G. wire;
start Y inch from the top. wind on A
turns in IN inches, skipet inch. and
wind on 7s turns more. This wind
ing should be tapped at the 7th, 18th.
31st, 44th, 64th. s4th, 104th turns, COM
mencing from the top.
At the blank center space two "
inch holes should be drilled, diametri.
cally opposite to one another. These
serve as bearings for the A-inch rotor
shaft. Two small holes are drilled In
the form X inch from either end, and
directly above and below one Of the
rotor bearings. The inductance is
mounted on the panel by means Of two
6-32-inch nickel plated. fiat-head ma
chine screws " inch long. Great care
