The Cycle.

America is on the upgrade. The down.
ward path, which led from the heights
Of prosperity to the depths of the de-
preston, Is thing of the past. The
path, upon which the Nation has it's
feet, leads back to the heights And
with this change another cycle is almost
complete, a cycle which has its roots
In the world of economics but which is
also entirely human.
The problem today-as it has been
In the past, when the turn of fortune
has come in the affairs of the people
Is to prevent downward plunge in the
future, to keep the path steady and
level. Out of the distress, the failures
and dependency something has per-
haps been gained-although mans
memory is Of the shortest. Out of the
toll and courage of the American people,
which have been responsible, as they
always have been responsible, for the
Nations return to prosperity, something
should have been learned.
The depression that hit America in
1929 and the years Immediately follow
ing was due to world conditions in part,
and to the follies of the American people
themselves. The latter acted as an ac-
celerator. Americans had reached the
conclusion that there was no end to the
values of intangibles; they were gambling
with the lid of. The world was paying
for the folly of the World War, the most
costly conflict Of the centuries. Amer
leans had reached the conclusion that
they could escape payment.
The struggle out Of the morass of de-
preston is invariably longer and more
difficult than the descent. What the
American people do now, as they re-
gain the higher ground, is vastly i'm
portant. During the years of the de-
preston the people have been fed on
many new ideas, some of them utterly
unsound. One Of the most unsound is
that some one-perhaps the Govern
ment-owes them something. The Amer
lean people have been strong in their
own right. They have advanced on their
own motive power. Individuals have
been weak and have fallen, but the great
mass of the people, by their own efforts,
have made great strides. BY their own
efforts they must advance again. If the
people, as a people, determine to rest
upon the strength of any one else, the
Government, for example, they will make
no advance.
What Americans will strive for is
build-up that will have elements Of
permanency, not for build-up merely
to go into another tailspin. President
Roosevelt's position as leader in the Ma
ton today is a position of great power.
The people, having reelected him by
huge vote, will look to him for direction.
What he does in the days of approaching
prosperity will be of far-reaching
Importance.

Italy and Japan.

Another of those selfish coalitions" to
which President Roosevelt referred at
Rio de Janeiro has just been consum-
mated. Italy and Japan have concluded
an accord whereby Mussolini recognizes
Manchukuo and Japan acknowledges the
Fascist empire of Ethiopia. Mutual
commercial concessions are also pro-
vided for. What else is comprehended
by the pact is not disclosed, but it is
generally heralded as the forerunner
Of an Italo-Japanese anti-Communist
agreement on lines of the German
Japanese understanding.
As the Germans and Italians are
already linked in such an arrangement,

The loquacious fellow has his draw
backs, but what about the man who
never says anything ct all?
Is he trying to emulate Carlyle's great
silent man, or has he just nothing to say?
And II not, then why not?
Such silent folk will be the biggest
mystery Of all to the person who fondly
regards himself as normal, in this respect,
who talks when he has something to
say. and refrains from speaking when
he has nothing.
The silent man seems SO at odds with
his world.
Whatever may be said about these
times, for or against, at least they are
interesting.
Not only are the surface manifestations
around the world worth picturing, In
words and photographs, but the deep
implications thereof are absorbing.
Which way is the civilized world going?
This is worth talking about, II any
thing Is, but the silent man never talks
about it. or anything else.
~ -
He remains silent.
Talkative people will admire him. in Q
way, since he is able to achieve some
thing they scarce can achieve.
They will continue to think, however,
that he Is making q big mistake.
The world is too full Of wonder to
remain still about 1t.
The human tongue Is too given to
wagging for any such instrument to
remain still forever, except 1t be done
by malice aforethought.
Hence the silent man must ever have
attributed to him deep laid plans Of
grand strategy, which, by the way, he
doesn't deserve at all.
One may come to the conclusion, after
watching q few Of these natural speci-
mems for a considerable time, that they
simply are afraid, both of themselves
and Of life.
That, Of course. is strictly their own
business.
lot Of wear and tear. too.
A great silent man has no worries
about being misunderstood.
He need never fear deliberate misin-
terpretations Of what he has said
He is forever sure that no one can
misquote him.
How coud 1t be otherwise?
He never says anything
Even the widest fellow given to mis-
quoting others would find it difficult to
misquote the man who seldom makes
q remark at all.
y -
Silent men must be, in essence, bits Of
frauds.
Picture one in his home, # you can. and
see a man who talks and laughs the
same as the rest of us.
He cannot fool us, can he? At home,
in the bosom Of his family, he says his
say, without doubt.
This must be true, because he is
human, and has the same problems and
trials and tribulations, the same triumphS
and much the same sorrows.
Literally, he must say something,
some time.
He cannot possibly be as self-contained

A Post Card Plant.

A Post Card Plant.
A postmaster sat all surrounded with
mail;
His eye was morose and his visage was
pale.
As he moistened his thumb, all regard
less Of germs,
Himself he expressed in these sorrow
full terms:
"Oh, the post cards today, they're ornate
and refined,
But sincerely yearn for the old-fash-
ioned kind.
These show you a mountain, lake or
dell,
A castle, farm or a lofty hotel:
With comical drawings they seek to
surprise.
And their ready-made sayings are witty
or wise.
But SO much of their space in this way
they will use
There is no room remaining for gossip
or news.
I'm tired of the pictures, I'm tired OF
the jokes:
I'd much rather read of my friends and
their folks,
And know who is coming to visit their
kin
And learn how the quarrels start up or
begin.
This government Job you can take 1t
away
The pleasure is gone and there isn't
much pay.
These frivolous cards, with their pic
lures and rhyme,
They just keep a postmaster wastin'
his time!"

Frosty Weather.

I like to drive far out on q cold night,
Out and away beyond the city light;
Where the stars blaze above the dark
fir trees,
Their comic tops rime-polished by the
freeze;
shadowy half-tones, broken here and
there
BY the light, silvery frosting everywhere;
The skies like FURNISHED steel; the cold
intense;
The stiffness and the solitude immense.

When it comes to considering Repub-
lican presidential possibilities four years
hence it Is clear that much will depend
upon the line the Republican party
takes. If it is to become more and more
liberal, the choice OF candidate will be
entirely different from such choice If
the party becomes the conservative party
of the country. During the last two
years much was heard Of Senator VAN
denberg of Michigan as a possible presi-
dental nominee. The Michigan Senator
declined fatty to become q candidate.
an avowed candidate, for the nomination
this year. He apparently was wise. For
it seems now that no Republican nominee
would have been able to defeat President
Roosevelt. Vandenberg also side-stepped
the Republican nomination for Vice
President, q nomination he might have
had easily If he had been willing to 60
along.
vandenberg is a comparatively young
man. He Is recognized as one of the
best public speakers the G. o. P. has
today, probably the best, If Senator
Borah of Idaho is excepted. The Idaho
Senator made his bid for the presidential
nomination this year. It Is not likely he
will be candidate four years hence.
Vandenberg will be constantly in the
public eye as the senior Senator from
Michigan, one of the great Central
States of the country. That he will be
anxious to put himself forward as .
potential presidential candidate at this
time is both inconceivable and out OF
character. He will doubtless play watt
ing game. There are many persons,
