MO wonder that many young people Of to-
~ day are worried unhappy, DISSATISFIED,
eager listeners to any scheme or theory guaran-
teed to make the world perfect overnight.
There is so much glory in early youth, so much
happiness in competition, in violent effort.
The man on the left carries the ball, runs, de-
fes danger. There is the goal here is opportunity,
glory just ahead.
Sad is the same man later. The man that car.
ried the ball in the left-hand picture now sits
disconsolate holding his hat preparing to depart
when the sign, ''No more help wanted, - is hung
up on the door.
1t is dismal, discouraging world into which
thousands of young men are turned out now, to
"show what they can do"
In games and studies they had OPPORTUNITY.
He who had courage, energy and ambition could
make his mark, proudly wear the 'letter" Of his
college and feel that he WAS somebody and
MEANT something.
In the world Of cold reality the door is usually
found shut, and the goal is so far away it can
not be seen; ambition and earnestness seem to
bring it no nearer.
Youth that on the football field runs, tackles,
passes the ball, scores and triumphs, in the field
of real life can only wait and ask, with hope
growing fainter, with refusal.
Modern civilization prepares youth for work

done only those things which they
really felt, instead of endless,
foolish, irritable things based on
false pride, false fear, false re-

And that is true of all Of us.
If we would only do and say those
things we honestly feel. But we're
afraid people will laugh at us, or
snub us, or put something over on
us. And so, like baa-aaing sheep
away we go, without law or reason
wasting our own lives trampling
on others.

Listen, World!

lthe things that happen to our
selves-until at last we accept
it as Truth. We do not think
about it any more. It has be-
come a part of our unconscious
attitude toward life, and we act
upon it as involuntarily as we

AND YET ALL THE TIME WE

which we have no real wish to

they were over, they seemed so

Senper Fidelis

Of the United States Marine Corps which tomorrow
celebrates the one hundred and sxeth anniversary Of
its founding it may well be said cit has kept the faith" +"
From the time that the Continental Congress on No
vember TO- 1775 adopted resolution establishing the
corps it has preserved unsuled its motto
Semper FideLis.
As these rough tough soldier sailors gather in bar
racks or on ships tomorrow for their birthday dinner,
the American people, grateful for their many years Of
exemplary service, will say:
"Let them eat cake"
And there will be nothing ironc in the saying either.
The Marines have fighting service in more than
half of the years their corps has been in existence
When they chant "From the Halls Of Montezuma to
the Shores of Tripoli it is no idle boast.
They have travelled the ground and have fought over
it, fought over it VIGOROUSLY the sreamers on the
corps banners will show.
All over the world the Marines have jouneyed to the
glory Of their outfit and for the good Of America and
Americans.
THE MARINES ARE A QUICK, HANDY, CoUR-
AGEoUs AND ABLE FORCE, READY FOR ANY
TYPE OF SERVICE PEACE OR WAR, ON LAND,
SEA, OR IN THE AIR.
America is now expanding her naval forces with the
object of bringing them up to the standard which was
set by treaties being the minimum necessary for safe
guarding this country against attack
IN RECENT YEARS THE NAVY HAD NOT BEEN
KEPT UP TO THAT LEVEL AND WHILE THE
NAVY WAS SHRINKING IN SIZE, THE MARINE
CORPS TOO WAS SUFFERING FROM THOSE
SHORT SIGHTED PERSONS WHO BELIEVED IN
STRIPPING THE COUNTRY OF ITS DEFENSIVE
FORCES
But with the upbuildng Of the Navy it becomes neces
sary to strengthen the Marine Corps by adding to its
present force of officers and men,
While tomorrow American citizens are joining in the
celebration of the birth of the Marine Corps they might
make resolve that hereafter the corps shall receive the
appropriations necessary to maintain the unit at proper
strength.
THE MARINE CORPS COULD RECEIVE NO BET
TER BIRTHDAY GIFT FROM THE AMERICAN PEO-
PIE AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CAN GIVE THE
CORPS NO LESS.

and achievement then, in this stage of depression,
offers no work, no opportunity for achievement.
What can experience and the desire to encour-
age say to the young man who has been told "no
more help wanted'i
Youth says, "I am ready for life, and life is
not ready for NE. I am an object unwanted,
thrown on glutted market"
It seems cold and heartless to come back
to the old stale threadbare talk and yet, there
is nothing to say
The young man of today who expects to find
the world waiting for him, READY, must be told
that the world is never waiting for ANYBODY; ;
that each one must find his own way through
the door of opportunity and when he has gone
through the door, he must make his place the
other side.
Men, when they originally appeared earth,
found nothing ''ready." They had to find a
cave and go in, or build platform over the lake,
go out and live there, find tree with wide
spreading limbs and climb up for safety.
When the founders of this country landed here
they did not find Everything ready There
was nothing ready, not house, road, shelter,
to say nothing of steam-heated apartments, paved
roads and automobiles.
What men have enjoyed they have CREATED,

A married man, says a cynic, is
merely a bachelor who has made
love to one woman too many.
Women who go to a medium for
advice on matters Of love are some
where in the class with the man
who would use prayer in pulling a
cork.
Golf must have been invented
by some vindictive married man
whose wife wouldn't let him do his
swearing or drinking around the
house. P. s. He got his revenge! /!
Funny-a man would find it
hard to think, off-hand, just what
virtue is essential to his happi-
ness; but every single one of them
can think Of some pet vice, with
out which life would be awfully
stale and deadly.
Many a bored pair keep right on
staying married, because they pre-
fer quarreling with each other to
starting a brand new battle with
a total stranger.
If you are tired of your wife.

great many millions years,

to attain the straight up

the kind nurse who cares for

Germany's Twin Gorillas Get Tender Care

These twin gorillas, born
in France, now exhibited in

If you believe in "Evolu-

the human race has pro-
gressed in its upward climb
by comparing the faces of
the gorilla twins with the
face of the gentle nurse who
holds them on her lap.

Journeys

To many people Africa means
big game hunting, diamonds,
gold, the Sahara Desert and VIC
toria Falls. And truly not the
least Of these is that wonderful
caScading cataract on the zam-
bezi River, in Rhodesia, that was
discovered by David Livingstone
in 1855.
The falls and new memorial
park to Livingstone are reached
by train from Bulawayo, capitol
of RhodeSia. Some ten miles be-
fore reaching the falls, the
traveller can see five enormous
columns of water shooting up to
the very sky itself. The shafts
of water are tinted in delicate
pink by the atmosphere. Peo-
pie who have approached Victoria
Falls in the glory Of the early
morning sun, declare that the
sight is l1neXcelled.
It was Livingstone who diSpelled
the superstitiouS dread and my
stery with which the natives had
invested the roaring torrent OF
the Zambezi. They believed that
the gods of disaster, and giant
monsters of evil had their habl'
tat here and that the torrent was
the frothing OF the gods In tnelr
anger. The explorer had the
greatest difficulty in perSuading
native members Of the expedition
to push on through the forests.
But now with the giant Cape-to-
Cairo railroad crossing the Fam
bezi less than half a mile below
the falls, civilization is fast de-
stroyjng these fears and super

Reports from Iowa are that
Representative Edward c. Eicher,
Democrat, has recovered from the
illness which forced him to absent
himself from the House IN the
final days Of last session.
One of those who Succumbed
to the severe schedule of Congress
as it drove to a finish, he finally
was forced to halt his activity in
the drastic days Of the holding

Reports are that the majority
of the large number of members
who were stricken in the hectic
session will return to their places
when Congress convenes in Jan
uary.
A few, however, have been un-
able to make their recovery from
the effects of those months.
One of those men who is said
to be suffering the effects Of the
session is Representative William

Long past the age when most

continues to wage a campaign for

which began when he learned by
direct contact the experiences Of
the sailor.
He has been one Of the most

to secure higher wages, better
