the children by hand.
So far, nobody has invented an
automatic slipper or a self

What the mothers need is
whip that they can attach to an
electric light socket.
1t would be pretty nice to be
able to spank your kids with
direct current.
A mother could whip a fam
lily of nine kids for less than two
cents an hour.
If she only had one child she
could spank him all day for
practically nothing.
But IL she was the mother ct
a large family it would show on
her electric light bills.
1t might be little more incons
venient to whip them by hand,
but 1t be a whole lot cheaper.
One woman always spanked
her little boy with a looking
glass so that he could see what
she was doing.
She broke five mirrors en- him
while he was young. No wonder
he didn't have any luck when he.
grew up.
If his mother had punished MIN
: with the house current she could
have eased her mind by blaming
1t on the electric light company.
One smart kid always insists
upon being punished in the
kitchen. He leans over the stove
and takes gas while his mothers
spanking him,
He feels that he can be as
naughty. as he wants as long as
he has discovered painless whip
pings.
OF course, his discovery isn't
any good for kids whose kitchens
are equipped with coal ranges.

The Retirement Bill.

The adjournment of Congress with
out action upon the retirement bill is
a cause Of the keenest disappointment
1t was confidently hoped that notwith-
standing the great pressure of bust
ness opportunity would be found to Sc
cure concurrent action by the House
upon the Senate measure already
passed. In fact, there was opportunity,
for the House of Representatives did
not fully use the time available before
the gavel fell. The bill failed of pas
sage, not for lack of time, but because
Of decision that it should not be
passed, doubtless on the score of econ
omy.
The effort to secure this needed
legislation for the relief of the an
nuitants who are keenly suffering
from lack of sufficient means of sub
sistence will be renewed at the next
session. The fact that the Senate has
passed the bill at this session will avail
then to advance it's chances of adop-
ton. There is no difference now on the
score OF the principle involved. In
deed, it is believed that if the bill had
reached a vote in the last days of the
session just closed the House would
have approved IL overwhelmingly. De-
spite changes Of personnel in the
Sixty-ninth Congress this measure
should command the same support.

Inauguration Movies" 4"

Motion pictures of the inaugural ton
were on the screen in Washington
before inauguration crowds went home
to dinner. Persons who watched the
train Of autos carrying governors and
others at the tail OF the procession and
then dropped into moving picture
houses saw movies of the President
and his party leaving the White
House, saw the President take the
oath of office at the Capitol and saw
him deliver his inaugural address.
Thousands of persons who saw only
the parade or one of the other fea-
lures of the ceremony saw all impor-
tant parts of the ceremony before go
ing to dinner, or when they went to
the movies after dinner. No doubt in
auguration films were sent to Phila-
delphia, New York and scores of
other places by plane, and hundreds
of thousands of people hundreds of
miles from Washington were looking
at scenes of the great quadrennial
ceremony before the waste paper and
spectators had been swept from
Washington streets. Inauguration pic
lures were reproduced in San Fran
cisco few minutes after being snap
ped in Washington. Thus the photo
graphic art grows, speeds up and ex-
tends it's influence throughout the
country. Some of the picture houses
in connection with reels of the Cool
idge Inauguration Showed reels of
other inaugurations beginning with
that of President Mckinley, in 1897,
the first ceremony of the kind of which
moving pictures were made. Then fol-
lowed reviews of the inauguration
ceremonies of Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson
and Harding. The pictures showed the
transition from the horse and carriage
to the motor age. The motion picture
people do not lack enterprise, and in
giving Coolidge Inauguration films to
the people before the ceremonies were
many minutes over the motion picture
shows itself quick and jealous SER
want of the people.

there is a distinct evidence of recog-
milton of the superiority of quality
No longer are the walls of our exhi-
bition galleries hung from floor to
ceiling, as they were, for example, in
the National Academy of Design 40
or so years ago. When there is not
sufficient gallery space to display an
entire collection a portion of it is
held in reserve and the exhibits are
changed from time to time.
In this respect gift collections
often prove an embarrassment to
museums unless they are given with
out restriction. Probably the most
embarrassing question which con-
fronts museum directors is what to
do with works of art that have been
received as gifts and after a period
ofcyears have ceased to prove worthy.
Some have suggested that such out
grown exhibits might be lent to
young institutions in other parts of
the country, but the young institu-
tions, though poor, are ambitious and
are not willing, In most cases. to ac-
cept what the big museums do not
think worth their showing. The only
way to ohyiate the. embarrassment Is
strict standards in the matter of pur7
chase or acceptance. In connection
with the upbuilding of our National
Gallery of Art this policy should un-
doubtedly be firmly and unremitting-

to cross the tracks at grade. During
the past five years several fatal acci-
dents have happened at some of those
crossings and there has been demand
for their abolition. Plans have been
made for eliminating all of them.
General interest in the matter would
be keen following a tragedy and then
become rather dull, but the Commits.
sioners have kept in mind that these
grade crossings ought to go. The
most used Of them and that at which
the largest number of accidents have
happened is the Lamond crossing and
the appropriation guarantees that that
crossing will be made safe. There
are other grade crossings in the Dis
trict and these will be appropriately
attended to when funds are available.

The .Lamond Grade Crossing.

The Lamond grade crossing, place
of several fatalities, will be done away
with. In the deficiency appropriation
bill passed by Congress two hours
before adjournment the District of
Columbia amendments adopted by the
Senate remained in the bill. One of
those amendments provided $4,000
for removal of the Lamond grade
crossing. Washington fought the
grade-crossing evil until by the eieva-
ton of tracks and depression of
streets, or by elevation of streets and
building of bridges. every grade cross
ing believed to be Of any danger was
done away with. In the north part
Of the District and then far in the
country were two or three places
where a wagon road and railroad
tracks crossed at the same grade.
That part of the District grew fast
in population. The country road be-
came one that was travelled by con-
siderable number of persons and new
suburban roads or streets were made

Producers and the Public
1 Blamed for Stage Faults

New York's fight against indecent
plays has stirred comment from
editors in all parts of America. The
press very generally takes the atti-
tude that New York, being the point
of origin for everything on the stage
OF .the country, is of vital Importance
elsewhere. -
New York is the ;fountainhead of
the Nations theatricals." declares the
Houston Chronicle, Therefore New
York's responsibility Is great and
New York managers who refuse to
be bound by the dictates of decency
should be forced to respect public
opinion. Why men cannot, or will not,
be decent is the unsolved and SEEM
ingly unsolvable riddle. When the
public rises and pillories unclean
plays, driving them from the light
into. the dark places of discarded
things, replacing the authority of pub
lie judgment with official censors. the
theater will have only itself to blame" :"
The Wichita Beacon believes the
cleaning. and if the theatrical pro-
ducers will not do 1t the law will
have to do it for them"
Decency, says the Chicago Tribune,
lis not a sturdy vegetable in the hu-
man garden, but 1t is more highly
priced than some of the producers
may think" The Tribune continues:
IF they want censorship, kluxers,
Wilbur Crosses and Comstocks un-
loaded on the theater these producers
are going the right way to get it. II
they want a free theater and contin-
ued success they should clean up now.
before they are cleaned up" In the
opinion of the Louisville Post: The
mistake New York is making is in
giving too much publicity TO. without
action against, the Objectionable per-
formances. The longer New York de-
lays saraight-from-t the shoulder ac-
tion the more the producers will
profit. Censorship laws repugnant to
the spirit of the country are not re-
quired to meet the situation. There
are plenty Of laws on the statute

The Vice President and the Senate.

A new champion has come out of
the West to tilt with the rules of the
Senate, which practically-though not
theoretically-at times prevent ma
jority rule.
Vice President Charles G. Dawes, in
his inaugural address, speaking as the
officer elected by the people, who
must, under the Constitution, preside
in the Senate and enforce the rules,
demanded reform. His address, de-
livered before his seat in the Senate
chamber was yet warm, startled,
aroused and incensed many of the
Senators. They see in his address an
attack upon the Senate and upon
themselves.
Members of the Senate. however,
when they have an opportunity to df-
gest the observations of the Vice Pres
ident, when they have heard from the
country its comment upon his sugges-
tons, may be inclined to amend their
first and, in some cases, violent reaction
20 this criticism. There are Senators
who for years have felt there should
be Tightening of the rules which per-
nit unlimited debate on any subject,
irrespective of the measure before the
Senate. The impotence of the Senate
TO act has been severely criticized in
the past and more frequently in recent
years.
Woodrow Wilson, when the country
was on the verge of war, in biting
terms denounced the little band of
willful men" In the Senate who pre-
