HOW BOUT IT. BUDDIE?

EY1ORD comes from the White House that President Coolidge
wv will not protest the return of the former Kaiser to Germany
nor the restoration of a monarchy with him on the throne.
Oh. well. we don suppose it does make much difference. We
only spent 500 625 252 843 licking the Kaiser; raised five million
soldiers: sent two million overseas; lost 107,284 men, counting
those who died over here; lent over ten billion dollars to allied
countries to help them fight the Kaiser, most of which we II never
get back: and a few more little things like that.
True. we were told that our quarrel was not with the Ger
man people, but with the Kaiser. And every d~oughbOy who braved
the U-boatinfested seas to reach the well-known Flanders field
was inspired with the vision that he personally was going to get"
the Kaiser.
In fact, the whole war, so far as America was concerned,
seemed to hinge upon the Kaiser and all the Kaiser represented.
AS to the Crusades, our boys went to the far side of the world to
rid mankind of the Kaiser menace and make the world safe for
democracy" That was the one inspiring thought: hat was what
the war was all about. It helped the d~oughbOy on his marches;
it favored his bully beef; 1t softened the sting of homesckness;
it alone made the blooming war worth while.
Oh, well, maybe it doesn't matter. Ho, huml Let's talk
of something really important-taxes for example. Wonder how
long Wen be paying for the war?

But do not overdo it, bo;
Or folks will only grin and Singer,
They'll think that all you do is blow
And that it's using all your vigor.

But toot too much and folks will

But don't forevermore repeat it.

Or you will hear the order

You're GOOD, so let the old world
know it!
Then quit-at least for long enough
To let some other fellow blow it!

Fair
(Hartford City News)

The payment for resurlaced streets
at Indianapolis is not based OF a bad
plan. When that city wishes to re-
pair an old street that has been paid
for originally by the property own
ers and worn out by the public the
public pays three-fourths and the pub
lie o%ne-fourth of the expense. The
next Legislature should provide a law
that would extend this plan to cities
Of the second and third class.
In Hartford City there are several
streets that demand resurfacing at
this time. But it is not likely that
there will be any streets resurfaced
until there is a law like Indianapolis
has. The public wears them out and
the public should bear the greater ex-
pense.

INCREASING production by boosting wages is not an Euto-

Golden Rule" Nash, Cincinnati, in an address here this week.
And Nash, who now is a millionaire as head of a tailoring factory,
knows from practical experience
Taking a "sweat shop where old women and cripples toiled
long hours for wages of 81 to SIS a day, Nash tripled wages, ex-
pecting in his idealism of the Golden Rule to go bankrupt within
ten months.
The story of how he tripled production and in less than four
years has built I'D a business from $125O00 yearly to moro than
$5yOOOO0O is a remarkable tribute to the teachings of Chris.
which have guided him, he says.
Living up to the Golden Rule will break down every preJu-
dice. Nash workers have found a common cause in the brother
hood of man.
Suspicion and lack of confidence between capital and labor
is the cause of most unrest and industrial trouble, Nash declares.
The fine thing about it is that his theory has proved to be
a success. That is the big test.
