WHY NOT TRY HONESTLY

The great American game OF bluff
fails to feed us when the larder Is
empty. It Is hard for father or
mother TO convince a brood of hungry
children that they are not hungry
when they have gone hungry for sew
erai days. The thing for those parents
to do is to admit to the youngsters
that they have failed In supplying
sustenance and make 1t a family prob
lem. allowing all to suggest ways and
means.
The present Is pretty good time
to admit that we as a nation are down
to bedrock, which is, after all, pretty
good place to cast aside all pretty
theories and ideas, and start building
back from,
We decry the fact that we must cut
down our notions of what is our Just
due. We have been spoiled by the fat
living of the past generation. We
hear expressed the regret of the edu-
Gators that schools are obliged to oper-
ate on decreased funds. 1t is thunder
ed in our ears that we must not allow
our schools to fall below present day
standards.
Theoretically this is fine. But when
millions Of individuals have been
obliged to reverse their standards Of
living how in common sense can we
expect to keep the standards of our
public institutions up to the days when
money was plentiful. Why not be
honest, and admit that we are SO
nearly flat broke that we have to get
down to essentials?
It is hard to plead with a farmer
who has had no income for two years
that he owes debt to humanity, and
should pay more for taxes than he
has to spend for food. That farmer is
apt to remember the school of hard
knocks in which he gained his educa-
ton. AS he sees the bus go by loaded
with youngsters he is apt to remember
the long miles he truged to school. 1t
is hard to deny facts, and to theorize
when the rank and file Of us are hard
put for our daily bread.

No one would advocate, during nor
nal times, cutting down the length
of the school term. shortening tie
curriculum, or dispensing with trans
portation. AS the advertisements have
told us repeatedly, Life In the raw is
never mild" and necessity Is driving
us back to civilization In the raw.
1t is high time that we, as indi-
viduals. as community, ard as a ma
ton, get down to bed rock and face
the fact that we are back at the be-
ginning
1t is time for honesty in public
and private life. II the ease Of life
during the past twenty-five years is
to blame for the softening OF moral
fibre which has resulted in the dis
honesty Of practice in public and pri-
vate life will not the reversion of type
make for better American
Instead of the pleas for state I'M
employment insurance, or investment
Or by whatever term 1t may be called
should not the doctrine of individual
responsibility be preached. Instead OF
voting more bonds to take care of the
present. thereby mortgaging the flu
ture; instead of providing for mora
torium whereby our financial obliga-
lions may still further be postponed;
instead of adopting the "Hasta
Manana ountil tomorrow" policy Of
the Mexican peon, should we not, we
the descendants of sturdy forebears
get down to essential facts and hon.
estes.
Our public servants, from president
down to janitors, have been Teasing
fatty and should take their share OF
reduced incomes. But let us accomp-
lish that end as Americans and not as
race with no grand national back
ground. And as we review the early
history of America we will realize that
to go back to early simplicity OF life
would not be degradation.

CContinued from Page One) Death had occurred, apparently three or four hours earlier.
 Mrs. Williams told MT. Riggs she became thirsty during the night and MT Williams had arisen and brought her a glass of water. This was about 3:30 or 4 o'clock. Both had then slept again. When she awoke it was after 9 o'clock She called to her husband, whom she could see in his own bed near by.
 When he failed to respond, she arose and walked over to his side to awaken him. After her efforts failed to get response, and real izing that something had happen ed, she then called to MT. Biggs for aid
 Friends Are Notified
 As soon as it was discovered he was dead, relatives and friends were advised, and preparations were made to bring the body here. With it aboard, Mrs. Williams and party left the mine at 6 a. m. Monday on the Isis.
 On account of fog and snow, the Isis was run into Hoonah yes terday evening and, after seven- hour interruption the journey was resumed shortly after midnight. The party arrived about 10 o'clock today
 Estebeth Not Seen
 The Estebeth which sailed from here yesterday afternoon with a few of Mrs Williams intimate friends intending to meet her and lend any possible aid, was not sighted by the Isis. It was believ- ed probable that the vessel pass ed while the Isis was in port at Hoonah.
 Failing to meet the Isis, the Estebeth may have continued on to Kimsham Cove in which case it is expected to return here to- night or tomorrow morning.
