Reverend Preston Bradley, WQJ. Doctor
Bradley grabs hold of life with a firm grip, and
threshes out so many of its problems so that we
have only the grain left, and we never do know
what has become of the chaff. Yesterday
morning he preached on 'tThe Tragedy of
Ignorance" We all know ignorance is TRACE
dy, but we are mostly so busy figuring on the
tragedies of which the other fellow is the vic
tim. that we usually miss our point of the
tragedy. N0tt e you followed Doctor Bradley
yesterday morning as he pumped great chunks
Of the truth of common sense through Jerry
Sullivan's microphone.
Doctor Bradey's. sermon was so bristlingly
filled with scintillant epigrams that it is hard to
keep consideration of it out of repertorial
channels. What he said was SO much better
than anything that could possibly be said
about it, that it ought to be reported rather
than essayed about Religion is spiritual
energy enriching the individual life and per-
fecting the social order" Continually think
ing along certain line ultimately transforms
the personality" "The power of thought
changes the whole physical structure and
emotional equipment" Psychology is not
making ten thousand dollars year scientist
with six lessons of correspondence course.
'"The great enemy of all liberty is ignorance
"What hope is there for the mind that says
this is all need to know.'?" All progress
has come from the minds of men VINO were un-
satisfied with the past and the present" Stag
nant intellect is against all progress" Think
ing makes our lives-our lives are our thought"
Intellectual sparks like those shoot through
the air when DR.. Bradley broadcasts, as the
fireworks shoot from the emery wheel in re-
sistance to the steel.
We gather from the letters DR.. Bradley reads
at the close of the sermon, that much of his
invisible audience is located in Wisconsin We
are sure that no Sunday paper will hold you
away from the Doctor after he once gets I'M
der way-though it may be that you could
still keep the pipe going. At any rate, he
breaches a virile, inspiring application of
spiritual vision to practical living. We enjoy
him. We are sure he has a message in which
there is something helpful to all.

THE CHILDREN'S BANK.

An experiment which will take years to de-
termine it's value is being tried out in Keno
sha The First National Bank of this city has
announced that it has established depart
ment for children and it is to be real chill
dren's bank. The youngsters are given a
chance to open accounts and make deposits and
learn while they are young how bank ac-
count is carried on a special window has been
provided for them and clerks there are to
carry on the business with the youngsters with
a view of teaching them how the services of a
bank may be utilized.
This certainly appears to be step in the
right direction Too often people grow to
middle age before they learn how to carry on
banking account and then find out what they
have missed. These youngsters, who take adj
vantage of the plan outlined by the bank will
no doubt in addition to learning banking meth
DDS be imbued with spirit of thrift which may
last them throughout their lives. Instruct
child in the way he shall go and in his older
days he will not depart from it," will apply
to banking probably as well as to moral ques-
tions.
This is not an entirely new venture in Ke-
nosha it is. true. The banks established in
the schools have broken the ice and given Ke-
nosha children their first lessons in using a
bank. Now in addition they can become ac-
customed to banking house.
The bank has done it's part in offering this
kind of service The next move is up to the
parents to prompt their children to take ad-
vantage of it.
Years alone will tell the outcome of the ex-
pertinent but it is a fair prediction that if the
Children's bank continues in Kenosha, the ris-
ing generation here will profit greatly because
of it.

has a tale, doubtless mythical, of a
cub reporter who asked John: az am
desirious of ascertaining how you
manipulate your hands with such force
and accuracy as to succeed in ami
hilating every opponent you have en-
countered."
The shock is said to have knocked
Sullivan out, for the first time in his
career, and the reporter escaped be-
fore he recovered enough to reply.
That is funny. But is it any fun
nier than the reply Sullivan would
have made, if some one had inter-
preted the question after he came to T?
"Foist, swipes him in de pepper,
and den hooks him in de jawr," or
words to that effect. Or is it any
further from standard English than
even the printed language of the
sporting page?
We are developing two languages,
one of print and the other of speech.
If we do not want orr print to be-
come as stilted as that of the dummy
reporter of this story, or our speech
to become as uncouth as the prize
ring jargon, we will do we'll to keep
our written and colloquial language
closer together.

THE TRAGEDY OF IGNORANCE.

There are various reasons for going to
church by radio. Tt is of great value to the
people that radio brings the inspiration Of so
many sermons to so many who would other
wise be denied the benefit of any sermon on
Sunday. There is another large class to which
the sermon comes by radio, who never would
get it any other way. We refer to the goddess

fills up the old pipe, sits down with. the Sunday
morning paper, turns on the radio at some

possible measure of religious advancement can
be extracted from that general attitude But
it is undoubtedly true that in sowing seed on
sterile ground now and then, as the good sower
has to do more Oh less, a. great deal of it does
fall on ground prepared in that general way.
We know of no air preacher readily available
to Kenosha, who is more likely to jolt the
casual listener away from The funny page, and
leave the glow of the pipe to drift unattended
into dead and unresponsive ashes, then the

Daily Health Hint
YOUR SHOULDERS.


Suspenders haven't much chance of
staging comeback, according to the
opinion of Mr.. Mann of Anytown.
The reason is simple, he argues.
Mems shoulders have become SO
stopped that many would be unable
to keep the suspenders over. the
shoulder.
STOPPED shoulders, and a sunken
chest often 20 together, and in most
cases both are result of carelessness.
There is no physiological reason
for shambling gait.
Rounded shoulders mean dimin-
ished lung capacity, lessened physi-
cal vigor, weakened muscles and an
unnatural flexion, passing into per-
manent deformity.
Stand in front of a long mirror,
and with the means of an extra mir
ror get side view of yourself
If the shoulders droop forward,
and the chest is sunken, begin i'm
mediately to straighten up.

MOTHERS.

Police of no city can blot out evil.
Nor could the combined legislatures

real inroads into evil.
That group is mothers.

RECREATION.

~ don't solve crossword puzzles
and l don't play golf. It takes me
an hour to solve a puzzle and four
hours to play game o.. golf. My en-
ployers pay me at the rate of 81 an
hour. My time is too valuable to
waste"
So says a friend of ours.
1t sounds big. But it isn't.
A man may be worth 20 cents or
$40 an hour. But few employers buy
part of mans time. 1t is all bought
with the tacit understanding that GER
tain hours shall be spent in work and
the remaining in putting mind and
body in condition to do that work.
Our friend owes it to his employer,
if not himself, to recreate his mind
and body.

Visas Are Costly to American Tourists.
The State Department has taken up
with the principal nations to whose
countries our tourists go the question
of abolishing passport visas on re-
ciprocal basis.
Perhaps the "visas" cannot be abol-
ished entirely. We may need them in
some countries ourselves, to admin
lister our immigration laws, and some
other countries may need them for
their own reasons. But we can at
least agree to end the burdensome $40
fee, now exacted of American tourists
for each country they visit That is
pure retaliation, against US. Between
themselves these countries charge only
such small visa fees as will pay the
cost of the service.
But, because America, as part of
our policy of discouraging immigra-
ton, charged $40 fee, the other
countries naturally found excuse to
charge our citizens the same.
If a quarter of a million Of our
people go to Europe this summer, and
each Of these visits from four TO a
dozen countries, this gee merely for
permission to cross the numerous
frontiers of Europe is substantial
addition to the cost of travel. Fewer
Europeans come to America, and each
of these needs nelo one visa.

Shanghi has turned down a move
to limit child labor. The hopeless
ness of doing it in the rest of China
may have been one motive, in addition
to some others less defensible. Doubt
less it is none of our business.
But do Americans realize that they
are among the chief benefciaries of
this Chinese child labor? The beau
tiful Chinese rugs, for which America
is the principal market, are practically
all made by the labor of underpaid,
overworked and cheated children. The
same is true of "Oriental" rugs, of
Turkish and Persian pattern, at least
so far as they are made in India.
Whether adults also participate, in
Persia and Turkey, the writer is not
able to say from personal observation,
but certainly, even there, much of the
labor must be that of children.
This is not to say that we should
cease buying. these products. Prob
ably that would only make the situa-
ton worse. But it is reminder to
America that the price of one of our
most, priced Injuries is the exploita-
tion of children.
