Goodness Increases Wisdom.

Sir Henry Taylor three generations
ago wrote "The Statesman" 1t re
mains classic of English literature.
This paragraph is a fair example:
''The correspondence Of wisdom and
goodness are manifold; and that they
will accompany each other is to be
inferred, not only because mems wis
dom makes them good, but also be-
cause their goodness makes them wise.
Questions Of right and wrong are q
perpetual exercise of the faculties OF
those who are solicitous as to the right
and the wrong of what they do and
see; and deep interest of the heart
in these questions carries with it a
deeper cultivation of the understand
ing than can be easily affected by any
other Indictment to intellectual &C

ODD VERSION OF "SHYL0CK"
On the Japanese Stage Shakespeare's
Famous Character Is Made a
Fisherman.

The globe trotter went to perform
ance of 1.-THE Merchant of Venice" re
Gently. he had but recently returned
from the Orient, where, he told his
friends that were at the theater with
him, he had seen a Japanese version of
that Shakespearean play.
"It's interesting to note the changes
they make in it," he remarked, accord
ing to the New York Sun. "Of course
they have to localize it, or else they'd
miss the meaning of it altogether. For
instance. the part of Shylock, as played
in the japanese Merchant is not a
Jew, because the Japanese could not
understand the anti-Semitic feeling
prevalent in certain of our occidental
countries. Instead, he is pictured to
them as a fisherman, which is rather
despicable type in Japan.
"Then Shylock does not cry for his
pound of flesh. Instead, it is an inch
of flesh he demands. The japanese
Shylock, when Antonio the merchant
bares his breast, marks with brush and
paint square inch on the latter's flesh.
Just at the moment he is about to draw
forth his knife, a longer and far more
murderous looking one than any used
in English productions, Portia is
brought to the court in her dainty jim
rikisha."

ORIGIN OF THE ,HAWAIlANS
Belief Has Been Held That They Ara
Descended From the Lost
Tribes of Israel.

The origin of the Hawaiian people
is still somewhat obscure. Oldest in-
habitants of the islands told the earli-
est missionaries that the largest is-
land was produced from a'large egg,
deposited by an immense bird upon the
water, which, bursting, formed the pres
ent island. From the first land the
other islands of the Hawaiian group
developed automatically.
The conservative Hawaiians of early
days stoutly held the opinion that the
first human inhabitants of the islands
descended from the gods, or were ere
ated by a miracle upon the islands.
Some of the earliest American mission
aries found conclusive evidence, to
their minds, that the Hawaiians sprang
from the lost ten tribes of Israel The
Rev. s. Dibble, in his History of the
American Mission" 1S43, gives much
space to tracing the parallels between
customs and traditions of the Hawaii
ans and the ceremonies and scripture
Of the Jews.

NATIONS DEBT TO FRANKLIN
Outstanding Figure of the Revolution
Should Never Be Forgotten by
Any American.

If hundred professors of American
history were asked what man, next to
Washington, did most to launch the
American republic as an independent,
self-moving nation, 90 of the answers
would name Benjamin Franklin But
It Is to be feared that the average stu.
dent Of history does not appreciate so
well what this country owes to the
memory of the author, statesman and
philosopher who was born In Boston
217 years ago.
For such, the best course is not to
plunge into historical discussion, but
to get acquainted with Franklin, the
man. The task, fortunately, is at once
easy and delightful. His autobiog-
raphy, with It's shrewd wisdom, incis-
I've wit, kindly humor and amazing
frankness and insight, Is one of the
most readable books in the English
language. Let the doubter read that
and q proper appraisal Of Franklin Is
almost certain to follow. We do not
underrate our friends, and there is
something wrong with the person who
does not count Franklin a friend
aft4f befusing that memoir.-C Chicago

Cortland "PearI of Baltic"

The saga relates that the discoverer.
and first settler on the Isle of Colt
land, was man named Thjelvar.
From the same source one learns that
the island was then in such an un-
stable condition that 1t was sub
merged in the daytime, and rose to
the surface at night, but Thjelvar ex-
terminated with fire the trolls and
eviLspirits that infested it, and never
since that time have the waters broken
over ''the Pearl of the Baltic" In
later years, the early Middle ages
Cortland was indeed power to be
reckoned with, and it is the combina-
ton of ancient fairy lore and an inter
esting historical past that makes the
island so attractive and favorite spot
for tourists intent on exploring strange
ground.

the amateur ornithologist, "gets cred
it for lot of combativeness and brav.
cry he doesn't possess. He Is sup
posed to drive other birds away, but
doubt if he does it. Certainly the
robins are not afraid of him, and he
fees headlong before blackbirds when
they strut toward him on the lawns.
Speaking of the robin, our red-chested
friend is no coward. In my back
yard two robins have their nest, and
believe me, they don't allow other
birds to modest it. They drive black
birds away heller SHELTER, and even
bluejays, among the meanest of the
feathered tribe, are not allowed to
get too fresh. The robin Is peace
able bird at heart, but he is no pro-
fessional pacifist by long shot.

Lyrics OF LIFE"

When l come home at close of day
l like to watch the children play;
Whatever load l may have to bear,
There is abundant payment there
For all my labor 'Tis to hear
The laugh of children; It's to know
What night may come, what winds
may blow,
The little children need not fear.
When l come home, my labor DER,
l like to pause outside the door
Before l enter, hear the hymn
The good wife huns. Cathedrals dim
Have never heard so sweet an air
AS sings the good wife setting food
Upon the table for her brood,
Secure from want and safe from
care.
When l come home-but fathers eyes
Must look beyond the sunlit skies,
When l come home l want to know
What night may come, what winds
may blow,
They are protected. Dawn or gloom,
| want to know that, come what will,
The wife and children are sheltered
If l some night should not come
home.

The American Legion will live only
so long as its present members live,
but the memory of those heroes will
live for centuries. The Legion is to
be congratulated upon its proposal to
raise an endowment fund to be held in
trust and used for this purpose ex-
clusively.
In previous years the membership
of the Legion has provided the funds
for this work, but it now requests our
assistance in raising this permanent
fund. 1t seems to be a matter of
public interest in which every Amer
lean should be invited to participate.
The Republican is glad to have this
opportunity to assist in presenting
this laudable undertaking to its read
,ers and is authorized to accept and
forward any subscriptions its readers
may care to make. All monies will be
forwarded to Arthur Renouf, Com
mander of the American Legion of
Maryland, Howard Street Armory,
Baltimore. The Legion hopes to COM
plete this fund before May l, 1923.
Announcements of all contributions
to this fund will be made in The Re-
publican as they are received.
