Milk by Flivver Methods
. Doesn't Strike Popular Fancy

Champions of the COW have had
much to say since Henry Ford made
his attack on the ancient farm ami
NAL as inefficient and suggested the
production of milk by modern man
ufacturing methods. The idea of
synthetic milk doesn't seem to appeal
to the country, anyhow. and there
is a general tendency to treat the
whole thing as a huge joke.
Heaven help the cow!" the Omaha
World-Herald exclaims. Henry Ford,
who banished the old gray mare from
the public highway, now proposes to
abolish Bossy. She doesn't earn her
salt. and besides, the stuff she pro-
duces isn't much of a food, anyhow.
Reckoned on q miles-to-the-ga gallon
basis, the COW is a back number. Once
the fiivver wizard gets down TO guam
tity production of laboratory milk the
end of the dairy COW is plainly in
sight. Doubtless we can turn our
old creameries and new cheese fac
tories into assembling plants"
so far, at least" the Racine Times
Call remarks, "Bossy shows no signs
of decadence. She may lack brains,
but she Is the champion milk pro-
ducer Of creation" The Nashville
Banner, too. holds that: '"Henry's
vision may be accurate" and 1.-The
good old cow may go as did the
horse. but for a while We'll cling to
her. She will remain to the present
generation at any rate. If those who
come after us want a synthetic sub
stitute, that is their affair"

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

NJ. Caillaux, according to gossip in
diplomatic circles, may attempt to
convert the French debt negotiations
in Washington from a financial into
a. real estate deal. That is to say,
France may offer the United States
the French territorial possessions in
the Western Hemisphere, including the
Guadeloupe Islands, the Island or
Martinique, and French Guiana, on
the northeast tip of South America. in
settlement of the 100000, 900 bill
M. Caillaux is coming to discuss. The
rumors that tell of this alleged plan
suggest that 1t has already been ten
tatiYely submitted to the United
States, and that that is the reason NJ.
Caillaux talks so airily of the speed
with which he will do business In
Washington. Pretended wiseacres
claim that a transfer of French land
in the Western World was proposed to
the United States on the eve of the
armament conference. 1t is said to
have evoked lively interest, though
1t came to naught-
Woodrow Wilson devotees have
launched a campaign to induce the
Post Office Department to issue a
commemorative Wilson stamp on De
cember 28, 1925, the sixty-ninth birth
day anniversary of the War Presf-
dent. Norman H. Davis, president OF
the Woodrow Wilson Foundation, has
taken the initiative in the project
The former Undersecretary Of State
declares that the foundation has re-
ceived many inquiries from all parts
of the country asking whether the
Government cannot be induced to
authorize q. Wilson stamp. Mr.. Davis
thinks the precedent OF issuing a
stamp in memory of President Hard
ing might fittingly be followed in the
case Of President Wilson.

have special right to wade into 1t
and settle it if they can. They are
said to be observing it closely, with
view to turning the situation to po-
Iitical advantage If suitable oppor-
tunity presents itself. Pinchots inter
vention would be of a purely State
character, as was his settlement OF
the 1923 strike. II Peppers genius
works out a peace plan, 1t would be
more likely to be under Federal aus
pices, by way Of the United States

1t will be impossible to give all the
precepts, some of them being put with
q frankness that is not tolerable to-
day.
The very great ma jority of them,
however, are of such a nature that
they could be read aloud In any fam
lily circle. These precepts are in no
sense an ancient What the Married
Ought to Know" They are simply
such ordinary advice as any person
of an ethical, moralizing nature would
give to a serious young couple.
So Plutarch stresses the sweetness
Of conversation between happily mar
ried folk. 1t is a small thing, in
itself. yet when one thinks of all the
wrangling that many couples indulge
In. the worth of this factor is readily
realized.
Amplifying his introduction, Plu-
tarch, in his third precept, declares:
1T especially behooves those people
who are newly married to avoid the
first occasions OF discord and dissen-
ton: considering that vessels newly
formed are subject to be bruised and
put out of shape by many slight acct
dents, but when the materials come
once to be settled and hardened by
time, nor fire nor sword will hardly
There is a popular rhyme current
today, ] believe, ending:
NO knife shall cut our love in
two"
Fire takes speedy hold of straw or
hare's fur" continues Plutarch, but
soon goes out again. unless fed with
an addition of more fuel. Thus that
same love. whose flames are nourished
only by heat OF youth and looser
charms of beauty, seldom proves OF
long continuance or grows to wed
lock maturity. unless IL have taken
a deep root in conformity OF manners,
and mutual affection be enlivened by
the intermixture of souls as we'll as
bodies, while prudence and discretion
feed the noble flame"
There is a whole book condensed
into that paragraph, as the old hands
in marriage will testify. If there
is any one thing that makes for a
happy married life more than con-
formity of manners, aided by pru-
dence and discretion, no one has ever
found it out.
Plutarch's precept No 6 is as
follows:
They who choose to be the mis-
tresses Of senseless fools rather than
the obedient wives of wise and sober
husbands are like those people that
prefer misguidance of the blind be-
fore the conduct of them that can
see and know the way"
No. is one that will infuriate

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES Z. TRACEWELL.

That ancient institution, matri-
mony, has not changed much in es-
sentials since the first marriage.
What was o. K. in 100 AID. is
more or less the proper thing in
1925.
Plutarch, whose famous Lives" are
perhaps more widely read today than
any other ancient work, sent to his
young friends, Pollianus and Eurydice,
Just married. a long letter Of "Conju-
gal Precepts."
1t Is interesting to imagine the
youthful Greeks reading the 4S pre-
cepts sent them by their gray-beard-
ed friend, the renowned author, priest,
archon and building inspector.
Plutarch held down more jobs than
modern village storekeeper, who
combines in his person the offices of
postmaster. sheriff, justice of the
peace and mayor.
AT his home in Chaeronea he set
down these precepts for his friends,
and, as chance would have 1t, for the
curious of all future ages, so that we
today may see that the ideal of mar
riage now is much as 1t always has
been.
''The ancients placed the statue of
Venus by that of Mercury to signify
that the pleasures Of matrimony
chiefly consist in the sweetness of
conversation, wrote Plutarch, in his
introduction.
