THE SUMNER BUNGALOW

:. July and, August bring some mil
lions OF our people out into bunga;
lows and cottages, under the shadow
of towering mountains. ON the woodsy
shores bf shimmefing lakes. and on
the sands of the eternal sea.
The summer cottage may be q
very tiny affair. in which you can
hardly move without stepping ON
somebody's toes. You may have left
the smooth and labor saving facili-
ties Of an ample home in Delaware
for a primitive little shack, where
You have to cook over q smoky stove,
and lug water from a distant spring.
Yet sounds of cheerful merrimeHt
ring out of these secluded retreats.
Perhaps the palmer it is, the better
people really enjoy it. Modern homes
are built on the idea of reducing
work, but doing less work does not
always create more happiness. Per-
haps primitive experience in which
everyone has to get busy, SO stimu-
lates activity that everyone enjoys
life better.

WANTED, PEACEMARERs

The world needs peacemakers.
Said Jesus Christ in the sermon on
the mount: Blessed are the peace
makers, for they shall be called the
sons of God" Where are the sons
Of God who shall say. the healing
words that shall reconcile the war
ring industrial classes and the men
acing nations?
One trouble with many would-be
peacemakers, is that they are par
tisians of one side or another in the
conflict they seek to reconcile. In
industrial warfare they see only the
side of capital or the side of labor.
In international controversies, they
see only the arguments and interests
of their own country. Like the par
tIsians of the cause which they IA
vor, they expect the other side to do
all the yielding.
The old saying has it that it takes
two. to make a quarrel. 1t is not
uften when some great dispute exists,
that the right is all on one side. 1t
is human nature for people to see
their rights and their claims move
clearly than they see their duties
and 6bhgatf6tss. Most people see
difficulties from which they suffer
more clearly than they do the trouh-
les that afflict others. .-.., ..s-
The progress of the world drags
while nations and classes quarrel.
The money that could be spent on
education goes into preparations to
fight some other country. The
energy that could go into increasing |
production and providing more goods !
for the workers, goes into indus
trial conflict.
Peacemaking calls for a fair tenn
perament, one that does not attach
itself to any particular point of view,
but weighs all with just judgment.
People of that type are heard with
attention by warning elements, and
are able to make peace. {
Blessings on such folks, and verify
hey are the sons of God. &

THE NEXT DEPRESSION

Some people were shocked soon
after the World War, when the
question was asked, When will the
next war Gomez" How can there be
any next war, when we have all seen
what war means?" was asked.
So it is a shock to some hopeful
people, when the question is asked,
What can be done to cure the next
depression?"
Some sanguine folks think such
depressions can be wholly prevented.
Only put the management of finance
and business in the right hands, they
say, and there will be no depressions.
Human nature is going to be
capable for centuries of committing
follies that lead to industrial disas-
ter. Speculation was one of the
principal things that brought on the
recent depression. If the human
race has been cured of that kind of
fever, it is not apparent as yet. Peo-
pie will still be looking for the pot
of gold at the end of the rainbow.
and paying down good money for
hopes and dreams. When those
visions go up in thin air, the crash
ing hopes will create an industrial
smash.
% A sound banking system will do
much to prevent such collapse.
If all banks can be kept open and
so strong that the depositors will not
rush in at the same time to draw out |
their money, a dangerous peril will !
be averted.

KEEPING COOL

1t is about time for The annual
discussion ON how to keep cool. With
would be humorists asking at every
street corner "Is 1t hot enough for
you?" it appears that people are real
ly concerned about the heat of sum-
mer, and want to know what to do
about it.
The nudists think they have good
solution. Public sentiment says their
theory is altogether too airy, and
that ii is a good general rule that
people behave better if they keep
their clothes on. ,
People used to bundle themselves
up with deep layers of garments un-
der which they turned themselves
into a sweat box. This was sup
posed to be necessary for reasons
Of modesty, and they exuded rivers
of perspiration while conforming to
this idea. The modern world says
nothing is gained for public welfare
by steaming yourself to death. A
few dollars spent on cool summer
styles mean more health and ef-
ficiency. The bathing costumes of
former years were enough to make
the fishes and bullfrogs laugh.
In time it will probably be con-
sidered as necessary to produce arti-
icially cooled houses in summer,
as TO have artificially heated ones
in winter 81
:. Some people think the thing to do
in summer is to fee to some cool
climate. Sometimes In suchi climates
they suffer as much from cold ais the
folks at home do from the heat. The
small fry would like to spend most
OF any hot day in the swimming pool.
Swimming pools should be made ac-
cessible to everybody. The idea of
doing the bulk Of the word in early
morning hours and in the evening,
and taking it easy through the noon
hours, has much to recommend it,
That is the way tropical countries
have always endured their long heat.

GOLDEN WHEAT

The biggest wheat crop since, 1926,
is the prediction from the great
wheat growing states. This sounds
like the good old days, when every
orator used to boast about our glow
ing fields of wheat. More wheat
meant more gold pouring into the
country, and smiling farmers and
prosperous merchants.
Since then we have seen great
changes, and the idea has been. wide
,lv spread that the way to prosperity
is to produce less rather than more.
There may be something in 1t. but
many of the wise men have shaken
their heads, and said the thing Is
contrary to all nature. Anyway this
year Uncis Sam, will have wheat to
sell. and apparently they have got
to pay him d good price for it.
