If you wish to be a friend you
must have capacity for friendship.
1t is a long leap from sentimental
attraction to friendship. That is
what most of US have for one anoth-
er, but we seem not to have capacity
for a sentiment that endures.
Somehow, though there is in the
soul Of every man and woman the
capacity to be a true friend. Our
only trouble is that we are not al
ways inclined to let the better nature
have its way. Whims gets the better
of US and that little bent which seeks
to have its own way in trivial things
often upsets US.
Sometime We may learn to give
everything its proper weight and
learn to discern between values. 1t
is infinitely worth more to estimate
people by what they may become than
by what they are.

Organized Labor, in making its ap
peal for home work, instead Of per
hitting that work to go to non-union,
out-of-town men, will be called mar
row and self-seeking. Most Of human
ity are that. 1t is only natural that
We should appeal for the support Of
employers, when we spend all we
make with local business concerns.
The most out-of-town buying comes
from another class than Union men.
Farmers are given to the mail order
business on a large scale. And they
are not the only ones who deal with
large city concerns. a large class Of
people who are retired from active
business are free spenders with Chi
cago concerns. Non-union workmen
are in the same class. SO the out-of-
town buying is scattered among all
persons, those who work and those
who do not.
Labor makes its appeal, not only
on the basis of service rendered, which
is the best any community affords, but
because of its loyalty to the local
business concerns and institutions.
1t is becoming more and more APP
parent that contractors are inclined
to get their work done as cheaply as
possible, and not always with regard
to efficiency of workmanship. There
are a number of contractors in the
Twin Cities who have stood by Or
ganized Labor, and these are known
to give the public the better grade
of service. There are others who prae.
tice importing help from small com
munities. In practically every case
these are non-union men. Their liv-
ing expenses in rural communities
are lower and they can afford to work
for less.
In the end, if Union men are
ignored, they will move to the smaller
communities where living conditions
are cheaper, where rent is lower and
our city will be depopulated to that
extent.
This will result in many residences
being left vacant, rents will become
lower and property owners will then
have reason to complain.
In the end the better wages which
workmen of any class receive the
more prosperous will be the condi-
tons.

will probably come more nearly under
either definition.
There are great souls who appear to
nave the capacity to be friends OF
all. Such is the capacity of heaven,
and 1t Is scarcely probable that aI-,
who have not the capacity to rise to
this infinite height will ever enter
therein.
Friendship is enduring. 1t is born
of something called affinity. 1t is not
born OF admiration. There are peo-
pie whom you have infinite charity
Tor, and a close feeling OF kinship,
who are very faulty. You do not
cOuntenance their faults, but you love
them. You see in them something
that reaches to the heights. You
overlook all their faults. Ii they owe
you, you forgive the debt. = Ii they
tail you, you forgive that. In fact
there is nothing you do not forgive
them.
You do not always get along peace
ably. Sometimes you quarrel as
Brutus and Cassius. But the quarrel
is not lasting. There is a mutual
attraction which enables you to over
step every disagreement, however
tiagrant the wrong.

Sense From Congress

1T is fundamental that our rural
communities should be maintained.
They are a material strength to the
Nation. The proper governmental
policy 10 pursue is the one that adds
to the attfactiveness Of rural life ana
to a remuneratiye return 20 those
who live and labor in those eommuni-
ties. The closing Of schools causes
farm values to decrease. The dis
continuance Of post offices causes
many farmer to give up the strug-
gle. We should oppose every move
ment that tends to take away any
advantages from farming sections. =
Representative Gibson Of Vermont, in
speaking on Vermont agricultural
problems.

Albany Feb. 20.-The tower clock that won the highest award and special bronze medal at the centennial exhibition at Philadel- phia in 1876 will be given away to the municipality or building. which will provide 1t with the most suit able home.
 This announcement was made to- day by Dudley r. Fasoldt, 133 North Pearl street, Albany. N. Y, a nephew of Charles Fasoldt, pio- neer clockmaker, who constructed the prize mechanism. The present owner is not tower clock manu- facturer.
 The famous old clock is today pining away in a back room. its existence practically forgotten de- spite the fame it won in competi- ton. Its owner said he was moved to make the offer only by the de- sire that the masterpiece be given an opportunity to fulfill its destiny of usefulness and service.
 The clock will operate four dials of any size up to 100 feet across, setting the hands every half min- ute, and its owner declares it will not gain or lose more than ten sec onds a year.

Girls of Lisbon Shatter
 Traditions of Old Times

Lisbon, Feb. 20.-The women of Portugal slowly are emerging from the almost Moorish secusion in which they have lived for so long, and the first thing they do. under the new freedom. is to go to work. The shops and offices of Lisbon are besieged these days by girls eager to follow in the footsteps of their sis ters in other countries, and earn their own livings.
 Much had to be overcome by these Lisbon girls. There was the hesistance and ill-will of the mas culne element, grounded in the pre- .cedent of many centuries, and a large groupe of minor state officials, in fear of their own jobs, voiced violent opposition,
 Tn the schools also Portuguese girls have won their victories. They have exploded old traditions, and today are taking their places on the benches along with their brothers.

FAT HARVEST FOR
 CITY'S BEGGARS
LeipSic'S Free Hand Is Boon for
 This Glass

Leipsic. Feb. 20.-It seemingly pays to beg in Leipsis. The munich pal welfare office of this city has unearthed facts as to the profits of the begging profession that would seem fanciful were they not borne out by first-hand testimony.
 One blind woman, for instance, manages to scrape together 1000 marks, about $250. a week. Daily earnings Of s15 or $25 a day are not at all unusual with men and women beggars of experience. Two brothers who were offered jobs energetically declined them, saying they were making much more money with their concerts. These concerts consisted in singing before the houses of the middle class and following the per formancc with a sad story ending in a plea for aims. One of the brothers, it developed, spent his Sundays driv- ing a motorcycle with his fiancee.
 
 In another instance a beggar of fered the owner of a certain clever dog s1O0 for the loan of the canine during begging hours because, he said, the animal would help his bus mess. Another beggar engaged two cripples to beg for him. He paid them a regular salary, but claimed the entire earnings. In still another case beggar who pretended he was disabled war veteran paid two watchers twenty-five cents an hour each to warn him whenever a po- lice appeared.
 Investigation further developed that one of the most lucrative forms of begging was that of exhibiting children by way of winning public sympathy It was discovered that

ADMIRES U. s. WAY OF
 FINANCING COLLEGES
H. A. l.. Fisher, M. F., Tells of Vol untarT Gifts of Wealthy
 Americans

London. Feb. 2o.-A splendid way 10 bring about better understand ing between the United States and England would be to send all the wealthy men of the British Isles to ing the knacll of making frequent and liberal donations to educational institutions, H. A. l.. Fisher, mem- Der of parliament, told members of the English speaking union at a luncheon recently at which he was the guest of honor.
 MT. Fisher, former president of the board of education, returned re- gently from a tour of the United States and Canada, during which he visited many of the principal col leges and universities. He spoke in particular of the Superb academic" buildings for the under graduates at Yale, built by part of the Hardness endowment of s40,000,000, and said that he wished these quarters could be seen by all persons here inter ested in education.
 "I think 1t would be a capital idea if we could send all England's wealthy men to America 10 inspect the wonderful universities and to see what had been done with en- | dowments from some of the Ameri- can millionaires. If this were done. perhaps some of our rich men would acquire the habit of giving away vast sums to institutes of 1 learning.
 There is not a college in the United States or in Canada which does not appear 10 have a we'll trained retinue of millionaires on ! its staff. We here in England have much to learn from American edu- cationalists."

Pearl Oyster Beds
 Closed to Fishermen

Manila, Feb. 2O.-One-half of the pearl banks around the Sulu arch ipelago will be closed for a period of three years beginning January l., 1925, for the purpose of protecting the pearl industry Of the Philippine Islands.
 Insular officials, after an investiga- ton became convinced that the pearl banks would be exhausted within 8 few years unless steps were taken to protect the industry by establish ing a closed season for long period. The bureau of customs and th9 ccn- stabulary have organized a patrol to protect the banks.

Oil Production of
 California Decreases

San Francisco, Feb. 2o,-The pro- duction of oil in California during the last year was 230,045,00O barrels, 33,6S3,S95 barrels less than in the previous year, according to a state ment issued by the state mining bureau.
 The heaviest decline was in the southern California fields. This was partly offset by increases in the San Joaquin Valley and elsewhere, both from new wells and from wells which had been shut down or cur tailed in 1923 owing to the tempor- ary overproduction.
