Beautiful things you own
or have seen or have done

There's the beauty have

But you're wrong. You may
have all these possessions and
experiences in your life, yet
have no beauty. You may
have none of these things and
yet walk with beauty every
hour.
Truth About Beauty
Once I read a verse by Nor.
man Strand which defined
beauty. Here it is
BEAUTY
Beauty is not in the bush
Nor in the tree,
Nor in the sky,
Nor in the sea,
But something bound In the
blood
Of me-"
There is truth about beauty.
BEAUTY IS NOT OUTSIDE
US. 1T IS IN US.
BEAUTY CANNOT BE
BOUGHT OR TAUGHT
1T MUST BE LIVED.
AND BEAUTY IS THE ONE
THING WHICH ANY MAN
MAY SSESS TO ANY
MEASURE AND WHICH
ANY MAN MAY EXPERT.
ENCE IN ANY PLACE. PRO
VIDED HE HAS THE UNDER.
STANDING OF BEAUTY
BOUND IN HIS BLOOD"
How much of your life have
you spent envying people who
have lovely things?" And yet
you can only have as much
loveliness as there is within
you, yourself.
A picture hangs on a wall.
Twelve men see that picture.
Eleven of them can see nothing
in it. A few lines scrawled on
white paper. But to the twelfth
man that picture is revela-
ton of pure beauty.
Seeing it, he is lifted out of
his tired body-and his shabby
clothes. He is carried away
from pain and shame and
worry And once again he
sees the salt tides rolling in
over the pale marshes in the
wide, still light of dawn. and
hears the plover's skirling cry
land smells the sour rich
ness of the wild, black soil.
Eleven men see nothing. feel
nothing but scrap of paper
and a few scrawled lines, They
would still see nothing, feel
nothing but a little foolish
pride even if hey were told
The Washington times., 1932-08-30

that that picture was worth
$4,000 and they could buy it
and hang it in their rooms.
Wonder and Release
But the twelfth man, shabby,
harrassed, half fed, finds Won
der and ecstasy and release in
that picture. He, alone, really
OWNS it and makes it part Of
his life.
You can have beauty. You
can have all the beauty you
want. And nothing can ever
take it from you. 1t will stand
by you through all loss and dis
tress 1t will comfort you even
by the grave.
BUT YOU ARE THE ONLY
ONE WHO CAN FIND THAT
BEAUTY FOR YOURSELF.
AND YOU CAN FIND TT
ONLY THROUGH THE
GROWTH OF YOUR OWN
SPIRIT.
Begin to look for beauty. 1t
is all around you. It is wait
ing in the commonest objects.
the simplest experiences.
In the frail network of steel
construction flung against an
evening sky.
In the afternoon sunlight,
spilling through your kitchen
window, lying in pool on your
freshly scrubbed floor
In the heave and sway of a
man. driving a plough through
crumpling burrows of red sod
In the lift and fall of a wo-
mans arms as she hangs out
clothes
In all these simple sights,
Beauty waits. It is yours-IF
YOU CAN FIND IT.

UnfuIfiIled Ideals


It is fine to have ideals but
don't let it stop there.
Don't let the shattering of an
ideal wreck your happiness.
Unfulfilled ideals sadden ex-
perience but make it richer.
You regard a certain person
as the symbol of everything
good and noble.
Aren't you foolish to regard
any person so highly?
Humanity is frail, too subject
to certain influences to stand
a near perfect position for a
long period.
Your nearest and dearest
friends will disappoint you
often.
You may be greatly hurt and
disappointed by their failure to
measure up to the standards
you had established for them,
in your mind.
Why not use. yourself as a
standard by which to judge
others?
You have SURPRISE anI sad
dened others, even your dear.
est friends by your own mis-
taken courses of action as we'll
as by your lowering Of stand
ards.
You can think with shame al
many errors in conduct on your
own part.
Don't put anyone on a stand
ard that you could not always
maintain.
In other words, don't lower
your standards, but have a lit
tie charity when it comes to
judging a fall from professed
ideals.
Be as good as you expect the
best of your friends to be.

Drys Solidly
Back Hoover

The campaign has pro-
gressed far enough to dis
close some unmistakable
alignments. The prohibition
lists, the Anti-Saloon League,
the partisans of the Eight
eenth A m e n d m ent have
aligned themselves aggres-
sively behind the candidacy
of Herbert Hoover. This is
intelligent on their part. 1t
remains to be seen whether
there is as much intelligence
among the liberals. | was in
Paris when Mr.. Hoover
sought, in his acceptance
speech, to repeat his per-
formance Of blowing hot and
cold on the prohibition ques-
tion, The Paris papers gave
the impression that the lib
erals were delighted and en-
tirely satisfied. Even with
the knowledge of the un-
speakabIe stupidity of these
foes of prohibition in 1928, it
seemed incredible that they
could be so assinine as to be
deceiv ed by Mr.. Hoover
again; and especially after
the vigorous battle waged by
him, through Ogden Mills,
with the aid Of his 300 Off
cial retainers in the Republi-
can national convention,
against an open, honest, re-
peal plank.
Now that the prohibition
lists have enthusiastically en-
listed again under Mr..
Hoover banner, it will be
in teresting to observe
whether those standing for
repeal and immediate modi-
fication will lock arms with
DR.. Polling.

m HE acceptance of the
J. editorship of the Out
look by Alfred E. Smith
means that the country Will
continue to have the bene-
fit of his views on public
matters, political and other
wise. He has never posed
as a literary figure, but it is
easier to find masters of
style than to find thinkers,
and as far as style is con-
cerned there are not many
professional writers who
have mastered method Of
expression that approaches
that of Smith in simplicity,
clarity and strength.
Through a long period the
Outlook has been distin-
guished by notable editors.
When Mr.. Smith writes at
his desk he will be looked
down upon from the wall by
Henry Ward Beecher and
Theodore Roosevelt, his
predecessors in the editorial
chair. 1t was through the
medium of this same peri
odical that Roosevelt con-
tinued to impress his virile
views upon the country
after his retirement from
office; and there will be
general satisfaction in the
knowledge that the judg-
ment and ideals of Smith
will not be lost to the pub
lie.

What Alliance

What has happened be-

Has an understanding
been reached with the inter-

Is the alignment due to
Mr.. Hoover's subserviency

the better protection of the

ONCE-OVERS
At the Bridge Table

AU VAC DAAU6O AoOAV
In a game of bridge what
sort of a partner are you?
Do you censure the one play
ing with you if she or he
makes a poor play?
Are you persistent in your
objections so that you annoy
the one opposite to you to a
point where thoughtful play
ing is impossible on account Of
anger and resentment?
When you attend a bridge
party, a social gathering, you
should not expect that all OF
your partners will be experts.
Some persons have no card
sense-others play infrequently
and therefore are not good
players.
Contesting in a regular
tournament, in which all part
ners are expected to be fairly
good, at least, you have right
to expect more knowledge of the
game.
But a social bridge party, at
the home of friend or in your
own home or even club house
gatherings are occasions where
you, as a good player, must
expect to be paired with some
who are not proficient,
The person who grumbleS at
his partners play is the worst
sort of a bore.
He not only annoys his
partner but others at same
table.
Show yourself a good sport
and keep your temper.

Called Usurpation
Of Authority"

Senator Carter Glass is not
a demagogue, and, comment
ing on Stimson's denial, he
says flatly:
THE recorded facts
showed it to be utterly false,
and the Senate, without a
single dissenting vote,
warned the State Depart
ment against the continu-
alton of this dangerous d
usurpation of authority"
Nothing more mendacious
and remote from the facts
than Mr.. Stimson's S statement
that his department has
never approved a single loan
could we'll be imagined.
When the Senate passed a
resolution on the subject, the
State Department cited as it's
authority for approving or
disappearing loans, Article II
Of the Constitution: And so
persistent was the State De-
partment that the Senate
passed Glass resolution de-
claring that the department
has no sanction for such ac-
tion and actually instructing
it to refrain from such a
policy in the future.
All this is known to every
reasonably intelligent Ameri-
can who reads the news
papers.
So if Wall Street insists on
going into the campaign for
Mr.. Hoover it must be a.
commodated. The people are
intensely interested. The2
never have had less faith il
the inspired wisdom of our
financial leaders-and never
less reason for it. In every
community between the seas
are men, once wont to wOr-
ship, who have been betrayed
and ruined by the policies,
the manipul a t ons and
worse - of these financial
leaders and tn cir allies
planted in the Government.
Meanwhile a high-powered
propaganda is launched to
persuade the people who are
jobless and penniless that
prosperity is Just around
the corner" and we may
expect almost daily state
ments from the "Ieaders"
to this effect. But the job
less still are jobless; the
hungry still are hungry, and
the farmers of the West are
in arms and in revolt.

Delegate Hears House Committee to Use Knife
 onRoad Appropriation

Slashing by Congress of estimates of the Bureau of Budget continues in Washington, according to ad- vices received from Delegate Wick ersham. He announced that It IS probable the Alaska Road Commits sicn's annual appropriation, carried in the War Department supply bill at s65o,OO0, will be cut to $50o,- GOO.
 The House Subcommittee on Milf tary Appropriations which is in charge of the bill was holding hearings about the middle of this month and had made no report. A member of the committee is said to have predicted such a cut would be made.
 In 1931, Congress appropriated $800,000 for the Commission. This year the budget reduced this tc s65OO00. If the House makes the anticipated cut, the fund for the coming fiscal year will be 37H per cent below that of last. Local headquarters of the Com mission was without official ad. vices on the status of the bill to. day, and had no knowledge o4 any proposal to reduce the Com. missions item below the budge' figure. It was, however, considered not unlikely that it would bs slashed in view of the reductions made in other departmental supply measures.

 This was roared across the Att lantic by Senator Borah who led the chorus in opposition to debt cancellation in the Senate as the news spread that Great Britain's budget does not include provisions for payment of the American debt.
 It is but idle pastime, Senator Borah said, to talk of debt can cellation until Europe settles her own problems.
