BY Elsie Robinson.

stranger. You may make quite
an impression at a party with
a swipe-box brain-BUT SOON
Err OR LATER LIFE WILL
CALL YOUR BLUFF. Some day
you will come up against
crises which will force you to
prove where you stand. And if
you don't know where you
stand. if you've just been
standing where the scenery
looked prettiest. you're GER
tainly in for a spell of grief.
And that's one of the things
that ails America today. Once
Americans were shrewd and
original thinkers. They had to
be. Pioneer folk had to do
their own cooking, building,
sowing, planting. Your grand.
pa, wrangling a living out OF
stubborn soil in endless, lonely
hours, made up his own mind.
He had one opinion where
you have a million - BUT
THAT OPINION MEANT
SOMETHING. He had built
it out of his own strength and
weakness, measured it to his
own capacity, fitted it to his
own needs. It might be slightly
cockeyed, nevertheless it had
power because it was HIS
REAL OPINION, not a Dor"
rowed bunch of words. He
could back it with all he had.
He could live by that opinion.
He could, and often did, die
by it.
Canned Intelligence
But, for the last 20 years,
AMERICA HAS BEEN LIVING
ON CANNED INTELLIGENCE.
We no longer wrangle for our
opinions-we just listen in. AS
a consequence, we have no real
convictions, we rarely think.
So, when it comes to a pinch,
most anyone can make a fool
of us. AND MOST EVERYONE
IS!
THINK! THINK FOR YOUR
SELF! Don't accept anyone
else's opinion on any subject,
no matter how clever or virile
or virtuous that opinion may
sound. Make up your own opin-
ion. The result may not be
very new or very smart, but it
will be REAL and you can
bank on it. ONE ORIGINAL
OPINION, EVEN THOUGH TT
BE COCKEYED, WILL EN-
RICH YOUR LIFE MORE
THAN A THOUSAND SWIPED
SENTIMENTS.

Ever hear of a swipe box?
Most commercial artists use
them. In these boxes they &C.
cumulate hundreds of clipped
illustrations-fine drawings by
talented men of animals, land
scapes. people, buildings, ma
chinery. Then, when the call
comes for a certain picture,
they do not need to hire
model or spend hours sketch
ing. They simply go through
their swipe box, select a draw
ing and copy that bit of it
which they wish to use.
The result is a clever COM
position, mechanically perfect,
but there's something wrong.
It's pretty-even snappy-but
it doesn't mean anything.
There is no feeling in it, nor
any power to move feeling in
you. You've seen scrawls by
little youngsters that seemed
more REAL than this. Syn
thetic stuff-like near beer, lit
hasn't the authority"
Something Missing
You've seen people like that,
Clever people, with smart
line of chatter. or gushing
people, all full Of sweet plati-
tudes. or peevish people, who
can tell you what's wrong with
everything-yet they all fail to
register. Like the commercial
drawings, there's something
missing. Nothing that they
say seems REAL. And it isn't
real.
Those people are just walk
ing swipe boxes, filled with no.
tions. prejudices, ideas and wise
cracks which they've gathered
here and ,there-from some mag.
azine article, over the radio, on
the stage or down at the office.
They could talk for a year and
never once voice one original
opinion. Then they wonder
why they're not Big Shots.
They wonder why people do not
listen to them with awe and ad.
miration.
The answers plain enough.
No opinion has "any authority"
unless you dig it out for your.
self, from your own experience
and observation. Swipe-box
ideas never pack a wallop. They
may help you act smart, but
they will never help you live
big.
AND SOME DAY, WHEN
YOU MOST NEED THEIR
HELP, THEY WILL FAIL YOU.
For you can bet on this.

The Aftermath of Victory

The series of occurrences in
England during the last two
months have done more to
bring the world to a realiza-
tion of the gravity of the finan-
cial and economic crisis than
anything that has happened
since the war. No one was
astonished when Germany was
found in a desperate plight.
But England is different.
The embarrassment of the
Bank of England; the fall Of
a government and the recourse
to coalition ministry; the
mutiny in the British navy;
and now the suspension of gold
payments - a combination of
events that suggests. the crash
of systems and of worlds.
From his sick room Lloyd
George issues reassuring
statement, and Arthur Hender-
son, present leader of the La
Dor opposition, speaks with
studied caution. The hope for
England lies in the unification
of her people; and that makes
a general election at this juno
ture dangerous.
GLORIOUS War" Left
a Sick World
The world is sick because
there was a glorious war"
some years ago. The coming
winter threatens to be the most
critical in many generations.
The Administration at Wash
ington takes much pains to
assemble figures to show that
The Washington times., 1931-09-24

Meanwhile, we learn that
communistic Russia shows
marked progress during the
year that our own system has
been sagging. Not only has
there been a very notable in
crease in industrial production,
but the financial conditions
have improved, the food supply
is more abundant, and the peo-
pie are better satisfied.
This constitutes a challenge to
the business and financial brains
of the capitalistic world which
must be met. We are where we
are, not because of politics
wholly, but because of the short
sightedness and greed of indus
try and finance.
In his address before the
American Bar Association, Gov
ernor Ritchie could not agree
that Government should stand
aside and rely entirely on bust
ness leadership to get us out of
the moraSS into which business
leadership has led us.
This leadership, he says, failed
to avert the depression, and has
failed as yet in coping with 1t.
And, apropos of the failure of
industry to foresee and guard
against unemployment, he says
quite truly that "the strongest
argument against our capitals
tic form of government which
Socialism and Communism have
ever had in our day" is the fact
that with banks bulging, and a
surplus" of food and clothing,
millions are unable to earn their
bread.
Craftsmanship and business
brains must cooperate in end
ing that scandal. It cannot be
excused.
X Il 4
A Striking Point
Made by Richie
And Governor Ritchie said
something else that was well
said:
To-day the tendency seems
to look largely to the business
man and the financiers as spe-
cialiStS for leadership. Because
government should be run on
sound business and financial
lines, it by no means follows
that the industrialist or the
financier is best able to run
it SO."
To many Americans, inclined
to an idolatry of mere wealth,
it does not occur that govern
ment calls for specialists as we'll
as the manufacture of pig iron.
The greatest Secretaries of
the Treasury America has
known were Alexander Hamil-
ton and Albert Gallatin. Nei-
ther had money. Both were
specialists in craftsmanship.
And Hamilton died pennileSs.

,her chosen few at Warner Brothers Strand theater. For tomorrow night marks the second of the new series of Gift-Nite- Parties which have grown in popularity with the pa irons of this theater each year.
 Those who attended the first party ,on Tuesday night of this week were more enthusiastic than ever about the beauty and value of the gifts that were given away. They left, and in the lobby, were heard to say most .emphatically that they would be back again on Friday to make another bid for Dame Fortunes favor. ,.
 Tomorrow nights party will be equally as interesting as was last Tuesdays for another cargo of beau tiful and valuable gifts has already been delivered 10 the strand stage door and are being made ready for presentation. t
 Make it a point to attend the Strand tomorrow night and join in the fun. There are some twenty odd more gifts to be given from the Strand stage and if you've been eX- ceptionally good and wish real hard well you never can tell.
 A deluxe double feature talking screen program will be presented in its entirety and all in all you are bound to spend a pleasant and en- joyable evening.
