Such STEP undertaken here, would be the means

the vacation days added attraction and would give
courses of training in good music.
Summer symphonies are not On the Pacific Coast

success.

These ventures have been remarkable and there
why Washington should not take similar step
There many musicians out of work here now Many
OF them will find employment next winter when the Wash

It is late for this it is true but not too late Some
tmpresaro could get together orchestra OF trained mu
scans, and in the it possible to get conductor
from the outside if local could be found.
On the evenings think of the joy Of having
great symphony playing the immortal works of the masters
while overhead the stars look down.
Washington is ideally situated for such endeavor in the
field of music The ball park could perhaps be used for
outdoor concerts perhaps of the school stadum
Prices need not be high In fact the lower they the

Europe will be greatly inter-

of Secretary of State StimSon
through the old country. and
he is promised a warm recep-
ton everywhere. We do not
recall that any other man in
his position ever has under
taken such a trip. There have
been long periods when our
director Of foreign affairs could
have looked forward to such a
tour with pleasure and no ap-
prehensions. It would have
meant state dinners and COM
plimentary speeches. But just
now with all the world on edge
and most of the nations OF the
old world in desperate plight.
it will be something more try
ing than terrapin and cham

importuned for the cancella-
ton of at least part of the for.
eign debt, and he will be told
that this will go far toward the
rehabilitation Of Europe and
the restoration of it's buying
power. He can answer that BY
explaining that neither he nor
the President has the author
ity; that someone must pay the
debt; that if we lift the burden
from the debtor we. the credl-
tor, must tax our own people
to pay the debt; and that we
have a deficit now Of more
than a billion dollars.
But when he hears the pro
test, as he will everywhere ne

raising a tariff barrier to shut
out foreign trade, he will not

ONCE-OVERS
Working With a Purpose

Working With a Purpose
Just keeping busy does not
indicate accomplishment.
To what end are you work
ing?
Is it irksome to you to have
a purpose and work at it?
You may work hard all day
and see nothing as fruit of
your labors.
That is one reason housekeep-
ing is so uninteresting to some
women.
They say, "woman's work is
never done" and don't try to get
farther.
Suppose you are home-keep-
ing, can't you have a certain
method of furnishing in mind
for one room at a time and
work for it's accomplishment?
That does not mean that you
wheedle all the money you can
get out of your John to buy
the things you want for 1T.
Have you not some originality
and creative ability?
Can you not find a way to
utilize what you have with little
other expense to bring the re-
suit you think you want?
If it takes money can't you
shave here and there and put
something into a fund for the
purpose you want so that it
won't be felt seriously by the
Garner who must work outside?
OF course, some men &C so
penurious that they won't allow
any leeway for individual plan
ming in money matters, and 20
wonder then, that friend wife

Canada has struck back, and
is shutting out our products
from Canadian markets. We
have invited O war and the
invitation is accepted. Some
of the Pollyannas of the admin
istration have lightly brushed
this threat aside with the
statement that our manufac-
turers will probably get around
it by building plants in Canada.
They do not add. what every
one can see, that Canadian and
not American workmen will be
used in these Canadian fac
tories. And farmers will have
some trouble moving their
farms across the border.
And he will learn much in
Europe if occasionally he turns
away from the tactful diplo-
mats and statesmen who know
the art of courtesy to ask the

ators that it was possible to
push the measure through with
a meager majority of one vote.
He cannot confidentially ex-
plain that the Administration
really feels that the tariff act is
bad and regrets it; for he will
be reminded that the President
and his Cabinet members have
all pronounced it a master

ship.
He cannot say that sentiment
was so strongly for the measure
that the Administration had to
fall in line: for he will be re-
minded that three-fourths Of
the newspapers, great numbers
of manufacturers, and one thou
sand of the leading economists
Of the country begged a veto Of
the bill.
He cannot assert that the
Administration cannot now act
to change it because the buSi-
ness leaders and publicists of
the country are insisting that it
be not tampered with; for he
will be reminded that many
have demanded an extra session
Of Congress to reduce the pro-
.hibitive rates without delay.

Tune In on These
"Platonic friendship" these
days, means that you've only let
the man kiss you for a few
hours, every evening. just to
brighten up his summer.
Middle age is the point at
which you can't quite decide
whether to take a mans "flatter-
ing nothingS" as joke, an in
suit or a compliment.
The old-fashioned girl had a.
hard time trying to avoid doing
anything that would get her
talked about; the modern girl,
poor thing, has a harder time
trying to do something Suffi-
GENTLY new and startling to get
herself talked about.
The kind of man who will
never admit his faults is not
half so hard to live with as the
kind who will never stop brag-
ging about them.
If you are looking for happi-
ness, don't marry a man before
his character has jelled, his
youthful conceit has been boiled
