UP FROM $500 PEI WEEK

Almost every day we read the life
story of some man who rose to dis
tinction from some humble begin
ming. One such was John Bartin
Payne, who recently died after re-
markable career in business and
government service. ending BY his
work as chairman OF the American
Red Cross.
Mr.. Payne began life as clerk In
a general store in Illinois, at the
salary of 500 a year. 1t was not
much pay, hut it gave him chance
to show the stuff in him, and led to
promotion. The youth Of today
would scorn such a poor paying job.
But it makes little difference what
pay the youth gets at his start. The
question for him is. will that Job
give him a chance to show what he
can do?

IMPORTATION THROUGH
MUSCLE

A hoy convicted of rObbine store
was sentenced at Anderson. mdi-
ana. to take l2 mile walk daily for
60 days, in place of going to a re-
formatory. The results in his case
should prove that lawless tenden-
cies can often be cured through
physical exercise.
Crime is usually the result Of ex-
cessive energy. Young criminals
are too impatient TO plOd along the
weary path of effort on some honest
job. They must have quick results.
The boy who. has a good healthy
tired feeling as the result of his
strenuous exercise in some sport.
has obtained an outlet for his in
tense energy, and is not likely TO
commit any crime. II we had more

young men to work OFF their sur

THE sMALL NOM

i Relatively few homes have been
built for the people in the last five
years. Yet the population has kept
growing. There must then be a
shortage Of homes. Many houses
are so much out of repair. that it
would never pay to put them in
order. What is the obstacle that
prevents the erection of a great
number OF new homes?
One of the principal obstacles is
the cost of building. The amount
required to put up a desirable home
with modern improvements seems
too high to many people who desire
such an improved home.
Probably il the producers of build
ing materials and the building work.
ers would offer their supplies and
services at a lower price, that would
stimulate building. If they are not
willing to do so, how long will that
hold up the construction of the
needed homes?
Perhaps many home seekers would !
be able to build, If they could recon- !
cile themselves to the idea of living |
in quite small houses, or two and |
three family houses with quite
small apartments. The smaller
home is. the less it costs. The peo-
pie in crowded cities live in quar-
ers that would have seemed very
,ramDed to our parents.
The thing that makes a house
eem crowded is not so much the
limited amount of space, as that they
AVE stuffed it too full of furniture.
'eOple do not need so much space.
they will I'LL it only with the
hings they really need and must l
ave.
II is more important TO have a :
w modern things with labor say
lg devices, than to have a lot of y
llky and clumsy Old-fashiOned fur +
iture. The small home may seem q
ny to the old folks, but if il is well
rted to present needs. people can ;
. very happy in it. "

THE DAY OF LOVERS

The student of history has TO go
far back into the ages to find the
origins of the old ST. Valentine day
customs. Back somewhere in those
shadowy centuries, yOu find young
people, and older ones too. sending
sentimental messages. and trying to
set the fame of love to burning in
some adored, heart.
Love is said to make the world go
round, and it is a strange passion,
with violent and sometimes fatal ef-
fects. Sometimes it seems like a
form of disease. A youth meets a
girl with n pretty face and a seduc-
tive smile. and where he had been
happy and. carefree. now he brOOds
in deep melancholy.
II rivals gather around his adored
one. the skies turn dark for him,
and he imagines that he can never
be happy again. Many have threat
ened suicide, and some have COM
mitted that fearsome act.
Yet most people who suffer from |
love. get over it very
nicely. Other interests come into
their lives and their cracked hearts
are as good as ever.

Youth SHOULD TAKE COURAGE

The example of Abraham Lincoln.
whose birthday is observed Febru-
ary 18th, should teach every Ameri-
can youth that there is chance for
the humblest person. The boy who
is brought up in meager home
often says there is no chance for
him. He says it takes money to get
an education.
Lincoln was born into a home of
the utmost poverty. But he rose to
the pinnacles of fame The thing
that did it was his uncomfortable
desire to learn. BY the light of the
fire on the hearth. he read the Bible
and the history of his country. He
stored up wise and great thoughts.
Even the poorest boy today has a
far better chance than that. The
world will give him the helping
hand. as soon as he shows industry
and honesty.

THE WORLn,S m0RRORS

Il hate to read the newspaperl
now. they are so full of horrors,
said lady the other day. She spoke
Of disasters on land and disasters by
sea, floods. famines, ruthless sup.
preston of liberty by dictators
crime and killings. II seemed to her
the world is fuller of distress and
suffering than ever before.
Some such thoughts were stirred
as people read of recent suherings
by flood in the state of Mississippi
and elsewhere. Il is a dreadful
thing, in the dead Of winter and in
an unseasonably cold period. for
thousands of people to be driven
from their homes, forced to take
refuge in insufficient shelter. with
out food or heat in many cases.
The world is no fuller of horrors
than it ever was. The difference is
simply that the newspapers are COW
ering all the events of life with a
thorouehness and detail never seen
before. Out into the worlds most
remote spot, the great system of
news reporting extends.
If terrible famines happen among
the teeming populations of China,
if there is war and tumult in remote
swamps in South America. the
worlds great news organization has |
its advanced outposts on the SPOT. |
and all the sufferings and misery of 1
these scenes are told to the world.
This publicity leads to movements
to relieve suffering, stop wars, and
suppress crime. There probably is
less suffering today than ever be-
fore, because so much is done to pre-
vent and relieve these horrors. In
our own country we have the won
ierful Red Cross, and other agencies
rushing their supplies and relief to [:
every scene of disaster. But as for |
leeds Of crime, that is something s
hat no measures of relief can touch. s
until black thoughts are removed a
rom the human heart.

WAR HEROES

The Congressional Medal of Hon.
or highest decoration within the
gift of the nation, has now been be-
slowed upon 80 officers and men for
heroic deeds in the World War.
Search is being made for some out
standing act of heroism, for which
Tooth medal shall be awarded.
1t is a fine thing to have these
heroic deeds recognized. Such rec
ognition calls on all of us to show
herolsm when we meet the hard facts
of life. But no list OF 100 heroes be-
gins to recognize all the heroic deeds
Of those war days. Countless Others
also performed deeds OF heroism,
many Of whom lie in unknown

NEW IDEAS

These are times OF rapid change
when it is necessary for people tc
adjust themselves to many new ideas
Many people become so set and we'd
ded to old methods and old customs,
that they never adjusted themselves.
Many business concerns have been
wrecked on this inability to take in
a new idea. Many people have been
nearly worthless as wage-earners,
because they could not adjust them
selves to some new way of working.
If they were asked to try some
new method that had been success
full elsewhere. they showed them
selves so hostile. that their employ
ers became disgusted. with the slow
