Daddy, Tell Me 1t S Fine

Daddy, tell me it's fine; it
helps me"
All afternoon the little fell
low had labored, building a
railroad track and setting up his
toy engine in the playroom.
Hearing his fathers steps on the
porch. he rushed out, grabbed
him by the hand and led him to
see the results of his afternoon s
work.
The father stood looking
down at the crooked track, the
engine with three wheels on and
one off. The little fellows eyes
caught those of his father, as the
father stood looking with never
a word of commentator.
Nesting his tiny hand in that
of his father, searching the
father face for an encouraging
smile, the little fellow said:
Daddy, tell me it's fine; it
helps me" rs
How often do we, through
neglect and carelessness, fail to
lend encouragement to the lit
tie man of the house when he
has attempted to do something
worthwhile 1t may seem a
small thing to the father, but it
is much to the boy.
One word of encouragement
is worth. tons of criticism. Gain
the love and confidence of that
boy and the battle is half won.
Make. him see in you his best
friend. Be his confidant. Let
him know that you ARE his
best friend; that there's abso-
lutely nothing he can not bring
to his dad for advice and en-
enlargement.
d Prove to him.. beyond all
doubt, that in you he has a tried
and true pal-a companion who
will sympathize with him in ev-
cry battle of life.
Daddy, tell me it's fine; it
helps me.

Make Haste Slowly

When will you die? Unex-
pected accident or illness may
hasten the date, snuff you out
prematurely. But, on the law
or averages, your number of
years on earth depends to
large extent on your speed of
living-how fast you burn out
yourself.
Ihis is not speculative phi
losophy. 1t is exact science.
Max Rubner, who is the
scientific sacred COW among
physiologists, advanced this
startling theory: Man is a fur
mace, born with a limited
amount of fuel-potential en-
ergy.
At birth nature gives us a
liked amount of undeveloped
units of energy. We can de-
velop and use them normally.
and die at the normal age. Or
we can use them up fast, and
die young. Many people de-
velop only a fraction of their
natural energy-the FIRE goes
out for lack of fuel.
This is the Rubner theory:
For every pound weight OF
his body at maturity, the av-
erage man produces and con
sumes $4,000 Galleries of en-
ergy before he dies. Death
comes when he has consumed
that amount. Nothing that he
can possibly do will make his
body produce during adult life
more energy than the $4,000
calories. And nothing can pos
slbly prevent his death when
this amount Of energy is pro-
duced."
Lazy men are universally
ridiculed. But lazy men usual
ly are healthy and outIive the
sPrinters who burn themselves
up prematurely. It's like for
est of thousands of acres which
can be burned down overnight.
The same forest, used up tree
by tree, will keep a normal
fireplace going for years.
You can walk across the con
tinent, 5000 miles, taking your
time at it. and finish fresh. II
you try to run the same distance.
you'll die not far from where
you start-only a trained ath

RED.TAPE

Death takes Elijah Watt Sells,
born 1858. He was one of the orig
inal efficiency experts. Readers
with long memories will recall that
in 1892 Sells and Haskins revised
the bookkeeping system of the
United States government.
If THE simplified Sells-Haskins
system is still in use, it's lucky we
haven't the system user prior to
1892. Epecially in the income tax
auditing department. Thorough
checking-up is necessary, The real
trouble is that the tax law is too
complicated, a quite natural coudi-
ton in view of its being framed by
lawye r-politicians.

Our Embassy At Paris

The United States govern
ment will soon complete the pur-
chase of home for its ambas-
sador to France.
Mr.. Herrick, our representa-
tive in Paris, has entered into
a preliminary contract for the
purchase of comfortable and
commodious home in the French
capital. Secretary of State
Hughes has been notified, and
we are informed by dispatches,
the trade soon will be closed.
In some capitals we are pay
ing enormous rents. In others,
the homes provided are made
quate and unfit for occupancy
by representatives of the richest
nation on the globe.
We are informed that the
new home in Paris will require
several months for refitting be-
fore it can be occupied. Re-
garding the house and its pur-
chase, the Savannah Press says:
The house is situated at the
corner of the Rue de Magde-
bourg and has another entrance
on the Rue Fresnel. 1t has ade-
quate accommodations for the
embassy offices, as we'll as a
residence for the ambassador.
There is d small garden with a
view Of the Seine river.
Mr.. Herrick took personal re-
sponsibiity for the option at
terms considerably below the APP
preparation of $4,000, so that
the necessary repairs and dec
orations will be made from the
margin.
The government authorized
the purchase of home for its
representative in France to cost
not more than S150,000. Mr..
Herriek must be /. good trader,
for. the information is that the
option calls for price less than
the sum named. This is an UNI
usual situation. When the gov
eminent makes an appropriation
the rule is to live pretty well up
to it and not aim below it. If
Mr.. Herrick has found a suitable
home at cost less than that
proposed he deserves to be thank
ed by his government for the
evidence of diplomacy.
Our foreign representatives
should occupy homes which are
a credit to the nation they rep
resent. To the average foreign
err this means more than to the
average American.
Other nations have been
more considerable of their dip
lomats than we, and the Paris
purchase is a step in the right
direction.

Similarly, we can live quiet,
normal lives, and live long. Or
we can live fast, and die pre-

strictly a matter of dissipation.
Its usual form is overwork and
