And yet we are additionally the
most politically minded people in
the world, and the Germans, of en-
lightened nations, the least so. What
made the difference?
Doubtless many things. But GER
tainly one was the short ballot. I'm
der the German system, the voter
knows what he is voting. He votes,
once in seven years, for president,
and, at that election, for nothing
else.
At shorter intervals, he votes for
members of the Reichstag. In state
and local governments the corre-
spending offices, and no others, are
elective. When the voter votes, he
knows what he is voting. Every vote,
in that sense. is an intelligent vote.
How many intelligent votes are
cast at an American election? As to
most of the Intellectually none!
Examine yourself. Did you ever
Vote at an election at which you
knew anything about most of the
candidates, or had any personal
judgment on them?
The writer once challenged the
faculty Of Stanford University to
produce one of their number who
had cast an intelligent vote on state
treasurer. No one responded. No
wonder our people refuse to vote q
ballot which none Of them can vote
intelligently.

The psychologists are telling us
every day Of new discoveries re.

New theories are as common as
new freckles on tlapper at Il

as t. the best way to raise a child
are given in innumerable new
books. One school Of theorists
contends this another school con
tends that. And the children con-
tinue to be, at bottom, pretty much
the same sort Of human being )
they always have been.
And a good many pc 1ple con,
tinue to believe that the best way
to spoil a child is TO spare the rod
A little parental energy expended
in welding the open hand on the
anatomy CT the child historically
connected with corporal punish
ment would prevent a lot of dew

Spare the rod and spoil the

was. The trouble is that not

A KENTUCKY ANTI-CLIMAX
(Akron Beacon Journal)

Kentucky's cave region is not
doing itself service in proceeding
spectacularly with efforts to 1e-
claim the body Of Floyd Collins
from its tomb in the cave that he
discovered. In doing this there is
spoiled as glorious a sepulture as
any Kentucky adventurer ever
had. No grave in burying on a
hillside will have half the interest
for travellers that would be the
portion of Sand Cave if the re-
mains of its i'll fated discoverer
had been permitted to lemain
where they are. There was some
thing tragic in tn" way the eldnr
Collins resigned himself to the
misfortune that claimed the nfe Oh
his son: the youth would be per
mitted to sleep there forever no
attempt to recover his body would
ever be cCuntenanccd; the cavern
that cost his life would be his
monument. In the remembrance Of
these things the digging opera
tions now going on are in the ma
ture of an antl-clnax TO y stua-
ton lately Astounding in heroism
and drama.
