Mental Laziness

TT is strange how often you hear such
L remarks as: Lawyers are a crooked
lot" or "Show women are wild lot" or
"All children have the devil in them"
Such comments are. of course, untrue,
and viciously cruel. They are the product
of lazy minds.
A little thinking convinces that no group
of persons is of the same moral fiber. All
lawyers are not bad, nor are all lawyers
good.
But many persons avoid little think
ing by devising little codes. And when
some one mentions politician, they chime
in: Every man has his price" Thus they
escape the effort of ascertaining for them
selves the true worth of the person in
question.

HISTORY may repeat itself.
Il During the siege of Paris in the
war of 1870, out-of-town correspondence
was written on very thin paper
This was because mail was sent out in
balloons, and space was valuable.
Then again, the same kind of station
cry was resorted to in the days of the
pony express.
Now the airmail is being extended UNI
der the direction of Col. Paul Henderson
to tap every important city.
And altho rates are comparatively
cheap, milady's heavy stationery may
give way TO something less weighty.
II will be good thing if all letters are
written on lighter paper Many two
ounce letter can be written on half rs
heavy stationery.
An ounce doesn't make much differ
ence in one letter. but an ounce in 800
letters would bring a smile to almost any

Maruinq for MonM
JLD YOU marry for money!

lAIOOLH YOU marry Tor money
wv And what do you think of n woman
who does?
The other day the girls in famous
Eastern college took secret ballot on this
question: Would you marry for love or
money?
And almost every girl who voted said
frankly that she would marry for money!
These young women were not of the
clinging vine type.
They were among the most highly edu-
Gated women in the country girls
who can leave school and earn good salaries
as teachers, social workers, magazine writ
ers, private secretaries.
They can go into almost any profession
where man can go 10 build his fortune.
And yet they would throw love into the
discard, and marry for money and idlenessl
How do YOU explain it? Ii is mystery
10 US.
If money could buy happiness
the thing we all want no one
could be blamed for wanting il. But il
can't.
As wise old DIR. Johnson said hundreds
of years ago:
Money can neither open avenues to
pleasure nor block up the pas
sages of pain"
These girls in that college in the East
have one thing to learn that there
is no misery anywhere like that to be
found in a loveless marriage No amount
of money can make il bearable any
more than beautiful stage settings can
make a good play out of one that is dull

Generqlities Danderous

n MIDDLE WESTERN newspaper de-
"A clares editorially that "the Mexicans
physically inferior: their standard
of living is contemplate; they are litter
ate; the chief critical condition is turmoil"
Concentrations such as this are seldom
true. Such declarations are insults TO
every Mexican. They will be taken as ex-
pressions of American opinion. They are
harmful to the growing friendship between
the Mexican and American republics,
harmful to American business, and harm
full to the peace of the world.
