of the country's wealth outside Of the south

Your Ancestors Had Nerve
Rv John CARLYLE

"HE thrill has gone out of flying. Air
planes are everywhere. In the armies
Of the world we find every sort of fly
ing contrivance.
Do you think of flying as a brand-new
idea, begun day before yesterday? If you
do, you are not familiar with the history of
aeronaVtics and you are not giving your
forefathers credit for ideas and for courage.
Archimedes, a Greek mathematician, who
lived several centuries before Christ, laid
down the principles of flight which are used
today in flying machines.
Most of US are familiar with the mytho
logical story of youth named Icarus who
attempted to fly with wings of wax 1t is
said that he flew too near the sun. The sun
melted his waxen wings and Icarus fell into
the sea.
Italy has given the world many ideas and
many courageous demonstrators. Columbus
wasn't the only Italian who had the nerve to
try something new.
In 1917, about the time the Pilgrims were
coming to America, an Italian by the name
of Veranzio leaped off high tower in Venice,
supported by a homemade parachute. 1t
was a square framework, covered with can
vas. Records of that day do not say whether
Veranzo landed right eide up or not.

THE UNITED STATES ASKED FOR
NOTHING
BY MRS.

IT has been nearly five years since the
| Worlds war stopped on November IL,
- 1918.
If this country had asked for reparations,
which means securing billions loaned and
some return for the American taxpayers
money, we would be nearer getting it, and
have only had 'our trouble for our pains"
England and France decided to take over
German territory in lieu of German gold. }
AS before said, our government asked for
nothing and got nothing. Those who will
live after a good many of us will have been
forgotten in our graves will witness the
comeback of Germany. and France will be
lucky if Germany does not demand repara-
lions, so caled-take it all back.
A statistical writer tells us that the al
lied nations had loaned to these allies about
eight billions. When President Wilson en-
tered the war on April II, 1917, and begun
to loan other billions on the allied war ac-
count the amount quickly mounted to fiji
teen billions
When the war fever subsidized the United
States had loaned more than eleven billions
cover there
In fairness and justice that loan, with ac-
crued interest, should be paid by Great
Britain and France, as a debt of honor, and
when we recall the Red Cross Donations the
Salvation Army service and many immense
relief societies, they will pay it, and be glad
to do it, for those allies would otherwise be
clicking SALT from the Kaisers hand and
the continent of Europe would be overrun
with Bolsheviki. 1t isn't a question of pay
when we get ready 1t is a question of
gratitude for safety peace and preservation
And there is as much to be expected from
Austria, Hungary and the Balkans as il it
was to be collected from the moon. Russia
is more than apt to line up with Germany.
Russia will not pay her debt.
To pirate about the necessity Of signing
up with a League of Nations under existing
conditions is like going to sea con-
demned ocean liner that is oozing with rot
and slime in the harbor
The political excitement of this good year
1924 is the outgrowth of a conspiracy to get
more money out of this country and pay less
every time, of borrowed money, and it may
transpire that British gold is paying lot
of propagandists who live on public notoriety
and rotten politics.
There is time for all things decent and
moral but there is morality in signing up
with European wars or warriors. Common
sense and common business prudence should
convince the American people that the time
has arrived to attend to our own particular

WIN p;nchot Was Defeated

~ OVERNOR PINCHOTS defeat for a
4 place on the Pennsylvania delegation
to the Republican national convention
is but another instance of his partys being
ruled by forces of reaction. The powers that
be at Washington, we'll as the dominant
politicians in his own state, willed that he
should be rebuked and relegated. Were not
his leanngs liberal? Had he not been, in
his day, an ardent conservatonist? And
what but trouble could such man make at
will be to defend and indorse the present
administration
AS successor to a regime under which the
interior department was turned over to in
veterate enemies of conservation, President
Coolidge naturally resented the idea of in
fluence or recognition for Clifford Pinchot
Erstwhile cronies of Albert B. Fall will be
welcome enough at the Cleveland conyen-
ton; and Harry Daugherty, late attorney
general, will have an upper seat there,
among the Coolidge delegates. But for
mer friend of Theodore Roosevelt and an
avowed believer in safeguarding the treas
ures of the public domain in the interest OF
all the people, receives scowl from the
White House and a bludgeon blow from
Pennsylvania's Republican crew, governor
though he is.
Disappointing as the result may be to Mr..

McAdoo $ Grou0;ng Lead

It the next national Democratic convention
is guided and governed by the will of the
partys rank and file, as all omens now in
dictate, its presidential nominee will be Will
liam G. McAdoo. Such is the unmstakable
forecast of the primary elections through
which the popular choice has been expressed
In state after state decisive majorities have
piled up for that most outspoken and most
outstanding advocate of forward-minded De-
nocracy.
Evident from the outset, this trend has
become especially pronounced during the last
ten days. Texas, Oklahoma, Washington
and California have come marching into the
McAdoo camp following fast upon the Caro-
linas. He is the only candida who con-
tested in all those states, and in them all
he was an overwhelming winner One hun
dred and fifty-eight delegates have recently
been added to his pledged support; so that
his total, according to Judge David Laid
dent committee, is now four hundred and
twenty-five.
The significance Of these figures is not
lost upon discriminating politicians. How
ever reluctant the less liberal elements of
the Democratic party and the reactic-ary
powers of the Republican party may be to
acknowledge the already dominant and ever
growing strength of William G. McAdoo,
they no longer can blink the facts. They
see that the people are for him. they sense
the mastering of forces too mighty for spe-
cial interests and little cliques to control;
they read the first letters of handwriting
that will wax continually large in doom of
selfish reaction and in yindication of pro-
gressiYe truth

Gro1Oth IN Southern Values

-HE new statistics setting forth past
and present conditions and treating
the United States as going concern
are eloquent enough to cheer the most sat
urnine who VIII take time and pains to con-
suit them. Especially are they full of en-
couragement to the south.
Consider the growth of values during
the last decade. Even with an allowance
of from twelve to fifteen per cent for high
err prices, the totals remarkable" The
statistician, Clark, says:
when it is considered that the wealth
of the country today is nearly four times
what it was in 1900, some idea of the
great growth and the present magnitude
of the development may be gained. That
this wealth is fairly we'll scattered the
length and breadth of the land among
people of every walk of life is evidenced
by the fact that over half OF the wealth
owned by the people of the United States
or existing in the United States is con-
tanned in the item under the heading of
real property land buildings, and homes,
having total value of over $146, Ala, OO0,-
600. And yet statements have been made
to the effect that the wealth of the coun-
try was in the hands of probably one hun
dred of the country's richest men.
1t is in Dixie. however, that the rapid
and stupendous increase of values is most
apparent. In the ten years, up TO and in
Guiding 1922, the gain of the whole coun-
try was 7O.1 Der cent; that of the south

REST FROM OURSELVES
DOCTOR of medicine and surger

DOCTOR of medicine and surgery tells
a story of a rich woman who told her
black nanny she going to a san
itarium for rest cure. The nanny said
in reply: "Is ye aiming to get a rest from
yourself? If you amt, there will be no rest
cure, for you, honey"
Sanitariums are doing land-offce bust
ness with rich people seeking rest cures
and the major part of the help they get
comes through their absence from nerve
racking dance or card parties, late hours and
scant dressing, and maybe dopes or stimu-
lants. Men in polite society never think OF
exposing their necks and lungs to the wealth
er, as our society women are doing. They
protect their feet and ankles with good
shoes, while delicate women wear open shoes
and slippers and thin hosiery in the coolest
weather of winter. These exposures are
bound to tell their own tale, time enough
being given. They breed disease and pain
When the queens of society get filled up
with colds and coughs they will naturally
gravitate to doctors and sanitarium nurses
1t is a mercy they have such shelters within
their reach. Doubtless many of such people
live longer by running to the sanitariums
where they must do what the doctors and
the nurses command and enforce.
1t would be a good idea for everybody
owning comfortable home to set apart
rest cure room and use it for invalids young
and old
When the sic kare obliged to have doc
tor, then move them into the rest cure
apartment, where nobody can interfere with
their rest and composure, under the direction
of the heads of the household.
There is whole lot of philosophy in get
ting rest from our own selves and avoidance
OF excitement and noisy company. Have you
ever tried to get out of yourself, when things,
get tangled up and hard to manage?

business and to give wholesome advice to
our represen tatiYes in congress to "let we'll
enough alone"
Doing well is hard to beat. In private life
the who attends to his own business
and allows his neghbor to do likewise is
the citizen who prospers in his peaceful
methods. 1t is needless to emphasize the
fact that we are not hungry for war at
this time. The leader the party which is
promoting war is in losing business. The
mothers of America are not willing to bring
children into existence to furnish cannon
fodder for European war maniacs These
children are entitled to life, to liberty and
ownership of what they earn or inherit from
industrious parents SO this nation will vote
and continue to vote, until the end.
