Timely Advice.

President Coolidge in his Omaha
address offered some sound advice
when he warned that the results
Of the war will be lost, and we shall
be entering a period Of preparation
for another conflict unless we can
demobilize the racial antagonisms,
fears, hatreds and suspicious and
create an attitude Of liberation in
the public mind of the peoples Of
the earth"
This is a remedy for the worlds
troubles, but how to give it SO that
racial antagonisms. fears, hatreds
and suspicious will be obliterated,
is most perplexing problem.
1t is applicable not alone to in
ternational relations, but to condi-
tions in our common country, where
intolerance born of bigotry and ig-
noranee, has threatened to become
an actual menace since peace was
declared, in name if not in fact.
The president said:
Whether one traces his Ameri-
canism back three centuries to the
Mayflower or three years to the
steerage, is not half so important as
to whether his Americanism of to-
day is real and genuine No matter
by what various crafts we came
here, we are all in the same boat"
As Americans we are judged by
our words and our deeds and not by

sEA-GoING BOOSTERS

THE growing Of cock at sea. when
1 the bird is especially vociferous.. Is
thought by sailors to be an omen or
good luok-a prosperous voyage for
merchantmen; victory for man OF
war. A growing cock predicted to
Themistocles before the battle of Sala-
mis- his great naval victory. On board
Admiral Rodney's flagship when he
achieved his great victory over De
Graase in 1852 was cock which
crowed slustily each time the admiral
fired broadside which was, to the
sailors, an assurance of success; and
on one of the ships at the battle of
Fort Fisher in the Civil war was a
cock whose constant growing was
taken as an omen of the capture Of
the fort.
In more ancient times the sacrifice
of a cock was supposed to insure IA
yorable winds for mariners and today
those who search for dead body Ia
Norwegian streams take along a cock
In their boat which is supposed to
crow when the shallop arrives over the
place where the body is.
Among sailors Of the northern races
the cocks reputation as harbinger OF
victory when he crows amid the din
of battle Is evidently Renaissance
coming down from the days OF the
