NEIGHBORLY NEW YORK
New York, Aug. 26.-At infrequent
intervals, growing weary Of what are
advertised as Jimmy Walkers witty
wisecracks, and of our skyscrapers,
subway rushes and those past-tense
Broadwayites, most Of whom haven't
been heard from in months, find
myself taking a nice open-car street
car ride.
On such occasions one meets the
New York peasantry and the city's
more cordial and honey people. They
seem quite aware that the surface
cars upset the mathematical rule and
prove that, in one instance, straight
line is the longest distance between
two points.
New York street cars may take
their time, but they're comfortable.
The passengers are not interested in
the decline of the theater, but they
are most eager to advise you where
meat and vegetables may be pur-
chased at the lowest price. Dozens
carry market baskets and large, bulg-
ing bags. Now and then woman in
a. Mother Hubbard gets on. Young
sters mess up the seats with dripping
ice cream connections.
After five blocks it becomes posi-
BILE to imagine that the county fair
may be the destination. With this
return to the leisurely, it is possible
to become variously philosophical and
critical. No one, thank heaven, can
remember the Jimmy Walker wise
cracks, which usually are not one
half as good as those of Robert
Benchley or Groucho Marks, but gain
Importance through wide advertising.
It's comforting, too, to realize that
the two gents with the saxophone and
the cornet must be out Of jobs or
they wouldn't be riding on street
cars.
Such conversation as one over
hears is as neighborly as any this side
of Tankville. Housewives are ex-
changing recipes and talking about
their babies. If you want to feel right
at home in New York, take almost
any surface car line!

suggest that you give your old fogy
doctor the air and engage a doctor
who believes in new-fangled notions.
A we'll trained physician can give you
chloroform to make the ordeal quite

suffer needlessly under the crude care
of such boss doctor.

fresh castor oil is one of the best oils
to use on scalp or hair, when either

Hats Off to Grand Rapids

among American cities, Grand
Rapids, Mich. seems to have a dis
tinction for which every town in the
land can envy her.
Grand Rapids has had only two
traffic fatalities since the first of
the year. For the last six months
Grand Rapids has not had any at
all. The city held a parade to COM
memorate the fact recently-and
small wonder! In an era when autos
kill 10000 Americans annually, a city
which finds way of keeping its
streets free from deaths for six
months has something to crow over.
Indeed, record Of that kind might
we'll be the proudest boast a city
could make. Move to our town and
be sure your children will be safe"
ought to be a potent sort of slogan.
Let's hope the Grand Rapids idea
spreads far and wide.

IT'S AN IDEA
During the coming winter, one of
the smarter music shows-!f and when
produced-will show many Of the
snooty set buying clothes at Klein's.
All Of which, I understand, is quite
true-but the act is underwritten by
the astute Mons. Klein, whose grab
as-you-can store IS one of the New
York sights.
In "Face the Music" one of the
first laughs was provided by a scene
showing Blue Book folk eating crul-
lers at the Automat. Which gave a
lot Of people an idea!
Klein's, on Union Square, is place
where the announcement Of a sale
brings out several cordonS Of mounted
cops. Even then, several dozen wom-
en- are usually clawed beyond recog-
milton and a few dozen more faint.
This is the place where one grabs a
dress without benefit Of saleslady,
and rushes to nearby mirrors to take
a self-fitting. From good point Of
advantage, the spectacle Of several
hundred assorted women, In corsets
and sometimes less-fighting for q
mirror, is highly diverting.
Because the customers are trusted,
shoplifting has been reduced to a
minimum. Still there are scores Of
spies scattered about to keep an eye
on the petty thieves. Offenders are
taken to store court and, unless
old timers, are dealt with leniently.

Success Lies in Organization

Sporadic attempts on the part of
farmers to prevent the movement of
commodities to market will probably
not affect the prices materially, but
it is a protest which cannot be ig-
nored. Success of agriculture lies in
organization and careful direction Of
marketing. No one who lives in an
agricultural community can help but
sympathize with the farmers in any
move they may make to better the
price situation.
Use of force is being deplored In
many sections by agricultural lead
ers, but out of the strife may come
some helpful system. 1t is hard to
form farmers into a tightly-knit and
effective marketing unit. They have
strong individualistic tendencies. In
so many ways have farm movements
bilked and robbed them that they
have become restless and chary when
new schemes are preached.
These recent efforts to prevent
glut of the market in the early stages
of threshing indicate that the farm
ers feel the need of some better Sys-
TEN of marketing their products.
They are striking out blindly in hopes
of getting more for the products of
the farm.
The farmer is practically the only
producer who cannot fix the price of
his commodity. The manufacturer,
the merchant and other industrialists
play big part in putting price on
their goods. The farmer hauls his
to market and takes what he can get.
A few weeks later, when the COM
modities have left his control, the
farmer often witnesses a juggling of
these goods which produces for 9TH
ers price which would have given
him a fair return on his toll and in
vestment.
Cooperatives and a score Of mar
keting schemes have been tried but
most of them have failed in face
of the present economic stress. Sur
plus of all commodities beats down
the price, together with other factors
over which the farmers have no con-
troll. 1t is not surprising that roads
are being picketed and every effort
is being made to promote a move
ment which will hold from the mar
ket commodities which are now SELL
ing far below cost of production.
What is happening in Iowa, Min
nesota, North Dakota and other ag-
ricultural states is a terrific indict-
ment Of our public policies which
make such a situation possible.

Within His Rights
(NeW York TimeS)

The nation, said Lincoln, could not
endure half-slave and half-free. But
the Republican national ticket of
1882 expects not only to endure but
to triumph half-wet and half-dry.
The party platform pledged its can
didates only to submit to the voters
the 18th amendment, leaving to them
to choose the stand which they, as
individual voters in the various
states, would take. In his acceptance
speech Mr.. Hoover exercised the OPP
ton given him by the platform ana
said that he favors repeal. But the
vice president, Mr. Curtis of Kansas,
has taken the contrary position and
Will vote as citizen for the reten-
ton of the amendment.
He is at once denounced by angry
Eastern Republicans on the ground
that he has not "stood by the presi-
dent" They fear that Mr.. Curtis's
reaffirmation of his dry sentiments
will brighten away again wet votes
Melted by Mr.. Hoover. Not only Is
Mr.. Curtis next in presidential sue
cession, but as president of the sem
ate he could break tie on modify
ing the Volstead act. This is all
true, but the fact remains that the
vice president was given every right
and encouragement by his party plat
form to take the stand he has as
sumed-consistent in him and popu-
lar In his own state. The plank up
on which he treads was constructed
by the president himself, acting
through one Of the strongest anti
prohibitionists in the administration,
Secretary Mills. The chief purpose Of
its language was to leave room in the
party for the drys, of whom Mr.. Cur
tbs Is one.
Before now Republicans have sue
ceeded with "straddle." In 1920 it
was difficult to discover from Sena-
tor Lodges plank on foreign relations
whether the Republican party was
for League or against it. Senator
Borah assured the voters that Cam
didate Harding was opposed to the
whole League idea. A number OF
equally eminent Republicans issued q
proclamation that the sure way ia
enter the League at Geneva was ia
vote for Mr.. Harding. The plan
worked. Pro-League and anti-League
Republicans joined in support Of the
ticket. The two speeches of accept
ance in 1882 offer the same invita-
ton to Republican vets and Repub.
lican drys.

BRITISH LAUNCH NEW DRIVE

BRITISH LAUNCH NEW DRIVE
On Aug. 26, 1918, British troops
launched a terrific new offensive on
3O-mile front from the River
Scarpe to Lihons, and crossed the
Hindenburg line at several points.
Their attack was preceded by ar
tillery fire lasting several hours and
equaling in intensity any barragc
ever laid down.
German forces were compelled to
retreat all along the front, but did
so only after desperate fighting, with
tremendous losses on both sides.
French troops continued their drive
to encircle Roye, and took Fresnoy
end st. Mard. Roye was expected to
fall at any moment, although it was
defended by the best soldiers in the
German army.
