the drummer admitted. But I dont see how under the Australian ballot and secret voting the- can be much crooked business; what i mean, how is there any absolute cer-tainity of delivering the vote after it is landed (The meeting of the Horn Market Club in Botton May 14 was more remarkable than moet of those prerent realised at the time. The three tpeakert were Senator Harming of Ohio, who has einee been nominated at Republican candidate for President i Goo Coolidge. who was put on the ticket as Vice President and Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin who was slated by the party leaders to land the place which Goo Coolidge won. The Globe herewith prints a large part of the speech made at that meeting by Senator Harding.)

HADDOCKS MILLS, Me "Hows the political pot down here? great convention, wasnt it? Whaddye think of Harding? Who are the Democrats going to pick? Spect this little burg stayed up all night to get the returns from Chicago eh. what? "He was the effusive sort of drummer who had been told he was a "live wire and he bounded out of his car and into Grlndlea store acting the part. Tha storekeeper paused In his sweeping and contemplated the newcomer over hts glasses. "Wa-a-a-: dates for three for Jedge probate, an sevral pore misguided unfortnlts think they want go to th Legislatur Im talkin about th Dlmmycrat ticket course, bein thats what I be in prlvit life-th primray lection In this country next Monday dont seem promise much excitement.

1, ceptln theys six caner- county commissioner, an American Industries he would have a scant hearing. Yet before the year Is past there will be a call for the good old American protection like that of 1896. There is not any way In the world for war-worn- and bankrupt Nations to restore themselves except by' going to work in production, and they ought to do it instead of trying to borrow money from Uncle Sara. When the world restores normal production it Is going to seek the Amcri can market, and you will have a new order to face And yet I remember that in 1912 we were promised a reduced cost of living. We were to sharpen our wits in competition with the world.

We sharpened our wits, Cut dulled our production. You have forgotten it now, but we were on the skids In 1914. Nothing but the World War saved us. We protected our home market with wars barrage. But the barrage has lifted with the passing of the war.

The American people will not heed today, because world competition Is not yet restored, but the morrow will soon come when the world will seek our markets, and we must think of America first or surrender American eminence. 1 Can't Use Spit-Ball Now 1 want bom yisterday an have given some thought t' th subjict, but I dunno an I haint ever found no one who could tell me why some fellers will Bpend much time an money, an kiss so many dirty-faced babies, an tell a fat ol woman that they thought she an her 16-year ol darter were sisters, an praise up a scraggly bull calf or a-half-hipped colt, an take off their coats help git In a load hay when th campaign season is on. they do all this all for th sake of runnin' for a office that dont pay nothin. This politics is bizness. The drummer had been trying to get In a word; he finally managed to say: "The Democrats say that they are tickled to death at the nomination and that theyll bat Harding's curves all over the field.

"All they have to do now Is to nominate a man to swing the full strength of(the party and therell be nothing to It but four more lean, hungry years for the Republicans. "Wal-l-l-l, I dunno much about baseball or politics, but eeeln they cant use th Bplt-ball now, so they tell me, that seems let out a lot men Naytlonal prominence who have been from time time named as th standard bearers of th un terrified Democracy. have dlluz found that th best pitchers aint afraid give a base on balls once In a while, but th Dimmy-crats have a way groovin em over with th bases full. Th Republicans will baste th batter In th bean ruther than let him clean up. Cap'n Wat's Way This man Harding dotter run well in Maine, for Harding Is a Down-East name an.th most of em likely folks.

Capn Wat Harding that used sail a big mackrll catcher was a good practical poltlclan. He w-as a blaster Dimmycratio hopes Capn Wat was. "You see, this town used be about 60-50 with Jest enough ifierchantble VOt 8Wln th' one way or Merchantable vote is good, put in the drummer. "Th most of this doubtful vote was repsented by a gang red plruts that lived down on th Cape an were all good sailorsan fishermen when stealin was dull. "Jest before election youd see Capn Wats schooner, th Baracoota.

come elidin in port. Th Capll would give out that he was goin after mackrll an was short a crew, an th story would git in clrclatlon that th skipper had some excellent Jamaica rum on board. Th inevitable re-sult was that Capn Wat would ship an lug off enough Dimmycratlo voters Jest about one day before election swing th thing an I think thats what they call practical politics, mister, aint it? "Seems to be a pretty good imitation Iowa, Ben Jonson, Beaumont, Fletch- er, Heywood, Webster, Chapman, Middleton, Greene, Peele, Nash, a dazzling: constellation 'for 'any age; and considering the eaper- renlng 300 years it Is a triumph that they should even so much as made their names remembered. Yet so outmoded Is most of the life they depicted and so obsolete the speech they used that their plays are performed, If at all, somewhat as curiosities. But then amongst them strides a Shakspere, speaking so trumpet-ton gued a language' of truth ana beauty that the world takes the trouble to learn dialect in order to understand what he Is saying.

And even those to whom his dialect sounds strange can grasp most of his meaning because his tongue Is so powerful and so passionate. Many of the views bf life he upheld are as dead as the Greek sculptor who carved the first Ionic capital, but his truth-to-life and his sheer poetic beanty are deathless. The Whole World Kin There Is something Immoral about this. It ought not to be so, but it is. It seems -as If the artists who care least about the moral direction of events were endowed with a lions share of moral Influence, purely as a by-product of their craft That group of obscure country folk Bradfords, Winthrops, Carvers, Bellinghams who were holding secret religious services and getting ready to emigrate as political refugees, and who founded the Plymouth colony, were much more "right" about the future than Shakspere was.

They had an Inkling of how the world was going. They were qualifying to become the architects of two centuries. Shakspere neither knew nor cared about all this. TVhen he thought of It at all. It tras to crack a Joke at their expense: telling them not to think, because they were righteous, that there would be no more cakes and ale." So the two went their separate roads: one the artist's, the other the propagandists.

The Puritans became the custodians of tho human conscience. Shakspere became the artist who makes the whole world kin. Lite's Caprice The Ideal arrangement no doubt would be for everyone to be able to comprehend a given scheme of life with their heads and agree on it But as Ve seem to be still several millenniums off that consummation, the next test thing Is what the artist gives us something which we can all understand not with our heads but with our hearts. The artist comes about as near making the whole world kin as anybody. TVhat goes on Inside a Chinese temple may chill our souls hvith horror.

But tha golden glamour of its architecture will give anyone a gasp of delight. Our Intellects seem to be as diverse as the sands of the sea. In our emotions we are pretty much alike. Talk to a brown, black or yellow man, even in his own tongue, about theories of Government and he stares blankly. But talk to him about the death of his child or the love of his kvife, the CQssedness of his relatives or the demise of his Tich uncle, and he understands perfectly.

Carmen," in the first act of Bizets opera, sings a lively tone to the effect that if you run after love, love runs away; but if you run from love, lovs runs after you. There Is something capricious about life. Too intense concentration on an object is like over-training In athletics. The artist, who seem to care less for meral issues than the propagandist, often wields more influence for the very reason. Life seems to demand of us a spirit of sportsmanship.

It will often give the victory to the fellow who Is not too dead set on winning. It seems to ask, not Are you willing to win? (Of course you are!) but, Are you willing to lose? The propagandist answers "No. The artist answers, "Yes: for I get my fun not out of the winning, but out of the race. Cncle Dudley. LIFE BEAUTIFUL IF WE L1VT ON PLANE OF AGREEMENTS Life Is so full of beautiful storie that it ia inconceivable that there should be any need of fiction or any other form of art.

Life itself is an art and requires artists to live it. There are few of these and that may account for written art. People who can live on the plane of their agreement and avoid the plane of toe.r antipathies make life an art. There was a cobbler friend of ours, poor, honest, witty, a philosopher and withal handsome. He had a wonderfully gifted, beautiful sister and ehe married a forceful phite.

who was devoted to her and -whom she loved as truly as she loved her brother, the shoemaker. The shoemaker was a leader In a radical reform movement: the plute was the leader of the opposition. The shoemaker disdained any sort of flnan-cialVielp from his brother-in-law. but. being an old bachelor, lived In the plute house, sharing a happy family life.

There was never a discordant word uttered, because these three tscitlv avoided topics on which they did not agree. They knew the art of life.

1 The Globe Man's Daily Story The benefits of enlightening conversation at the dinner table were illustrated by Benjamin Franklin, who tells us in his autobiography how his father always took care to have sensible and entertaining friend to dme with the family in order that there might be some improving conversation for the benefit of the children. "By this means, says Franklin, my father turned our attention to what was good and just and prudent in the conduct of life, and little or no notice was ever taken of the victuals on the table, whether they were in or out of season, well or ill dressed, or cooked, of good or bad flavor; so that I was brought up to be indifferent as to what kind of food was set before me. And to this day if I am asked I can scarce tell a few hours after dinner what I have dined upon. I thus enjoy an advantage over those who hake not been taught to pay less heed to their food than to the intellectual entertainment at the table. TOWERING OER THE WRECKS OF TIME ANOTHER European National anthem has taken Its place In the bread-line.

This time It Is Austrias. In ancient monarchies such as Russia. Germany and Austria a change of Government Involves a change of tune. It strikes people as Incongruous to go on singing "God save the ruler whose services have grown so dubious as to have been dispensed with by earthly agencies. But with this Austrian National anthem there Is more to the story.

It was written 123 years ago by no less a person than old Joseph Haydn, genially known as "Papa Haydn, virtually the father of modern symphonic orchestra music, and (in a manner of sneaking) one of the founders of the Handel and Haydn Society, which usually performs one of his oratorios in the course of a seasons concerts at Symphony Hall. Moreover, the anthem be composed to celebrate the virtues of the Hapa-burg dynasty (after all, a musician has to eat, and Talleyrand said that a married man with a family would do anything for money) presently began to do duty as a hymn tune, and to hear patriotic congregations innocently warbling this enemy music to sacred words in wartime was a sound to "Words and MuslcT Austria, being a republic, has a new National hymn. But here Is the odd fact: The words declaring eternal loyalty to the House of Hapsburg may go to the juak-heap of time. The music does not. Joseph Haydns tune goes marching on.

It is not hard to find people who can write Jingles swearing fealty to this monarch or that cause. What hard to find Is a man who can make something a tune, or a building, or a book, or a statue so beautiful that people refuse to give it up long after the original occasion of its production has ceased to mean anything in their lives. At the portico of the church, or the bank, or possibly of your own house, are a pair of columns with Ionic capitals, delicate designs ending In a ef spirals. Those spirals were conceived by an Ionian architect more than 2000 years ago, presumably to suggest the curling of hair off the temples of the goddess whose brne they were to decorate. Now the goddess Diana means little or nothing in our young lives no more than God save the Emperor" but we go on using the Ionic column because our architects have not been able to Invent one more beautiful.

And people will probably go on singing Joseph Haydns tune for the same reason. This Powerful Rhyme The Empire crumbles. The tune lives on. The view of life, the body of Ideas which it was created In order tc express, perishes. But Its beauty as a work of art saves it from Vhe wrecks of time.

Propaganda, cyen the most honest and earnest propaganda, cannot more than fill the basin of the age. But beauty overflows the basin of Its age and spills into eternity. Between the years 1590 and 1616 In the England ruled by Queen Elizabeth there were a dozen excellent playwrights, all well above the aver- By GEORGE F. BABBITT Felicitations to the newly-fledged graduates, end may all their fond dreams come true! Some of the Harvard class dinners this week will be given In the private residences of tho members. Instead of In the clubs and hotels.

Under the new dispensation private hospitality Is rather more lush and stimulating. Besides, Editor Harding possesses the accomplishment of knowing how to use that salutary utensil, the blue pencil. Gov Coolidge Is also fortunate in having been born on the 4th of July. Sentimentally least. It helps.

is Jefferson laid claim to thla distinction, though the record showa that he was born In Aprils- "The only birthday I ever celebrate Is that of the Declaration, he said. It happened that he died on the Glorious Fourth. So did Presdent John Adams. The latest flat of the Postofflce authorities that children cannot be sent by parcel post preserves that exclusive function to the stork. Again the function of the Sunday newspaper is vindicated.

The decisive 10th ballot at Chicago came too late for the Saturday newspapers, but fortunately the people didnt have to wait until Monday morning for the -details thereof. The world's history is full epochal events that were first chronicles In the Sunday newspaper. Time was whin the issuing of the Sunday edition was reckoned a sacrilege. We have survived all that. The lightning is busy In Massachusetts.

Its most notable stroke was up In Northampton. The verdict of the newpspapers on the ticket Is divided, but it will be noted that it commands the approval of our esteemed contemporary, tho Marlon Star of Ohio. Springfields gain of nearly 60 percent In population, according to the new census figures, would seem to put In Jeoparcfr that familiar quip concerning a metropolitan newspaper published In a provincial bailiwick. Dr Nicholas Murray Butler Is a scholarly man, hut he poBBesses a notable faculty for slopping over. For instance, when Tpch was looking for a successor to President Pritchett the nominating committee waited upon Pres Butler of Columbia, where Dr Maclaurin was then serving as a professor, and Pres Butler told then that Prof Maclaurin wasnt up to the mark.

Nevertheless, Prof Mac Laurin was unanimously elected and the Judgment of the electors was finely vindicated. Candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor will please stand In line and take theli turn at the box office. It promises to be a full house. Calvin Coolidge anecdotes are In order. When he was first elected Governor he attended an Amherst alumni banauet.

The tributes were many and fervent. Attention was called to the fact that Cal was not only a good student at Amherst, but that he was prominently identified with all athletic sports baseball, football. rowing, tennis and all the rest. "Do vou mean to say tha he was prominent In all these sports? asked an astonished auditor. Yes.

sir. answered the speaker. "You see, there was a good deal of money wagered on the results of the games. Everybody had confidence in Cals honesty, and Cal was always selected as the stakeholder. Front lawn orators, may he more or less persuasive, but actual results are more surely achieved In the hack room somewhere betwixt 13 and Sam.

"And what would T. R. have said? Ths names of the Committee of Forty-eight party sounds too much like to catch the crowd. Speaking of the multitude of honorary degrees now being passed around with the customary prodigality, theres the story of the last meeting of the Harvard overseers attended by Overseer T. Roosevelt.

When the awarding of these degrees came up for consideration, "The subject doesn't interest me, ejaculated T. R. "Ive got a trunk full of these degrees somewhere among my Impedimenta, and I dont know whers they came from, or why. Then T. R.

put on his hat and left. The long waiting lines of 35 poll tax payers" look good, even though they take time. Noteworthy on the roll of the Harvard graduating class this time Is the name of Charles William Eliot 2d. The academic traditions of the family ass thus preserved and perpetuated. On tlje other hand, candidate Leonard Wood politely omits to say how candidate Nicholas Murray Butler got lost in tho shuffle.

Prosecuted for alleged profiteering, the hotel keepers of New York plead not guilty and affirm that they tried to discourage extravagant dishes, tipping the waiters and the hat checker, but all in vain. Their patrons wont have it. And there you are. The complainants are too often the victims of their own splurging folly. Is yacht racing as popular as It was of yore, or has Sir Tommys quest come to be reckoned a sort of an intermittent wlll-o-the-wisp chase? However, Harvard prize student Jos-lyns platform will be preserved in the archives to show what might have been if they hadnt preferred something more ambiguous and slippery, Oats are quoted at top' prices; ditto horseshoes.

Earns as to gasoline, rubber tires and trolley fares. It fortunately happens, however, that footwear quotations are easing a bit and can better afford to hoof it. And now If that beautiful, thriving and populous city of Los Angeles would only get her name translated so that everybody could articulate it correctly! Alas, poor Kiev! Ehe has now swapped captors for the tenth time in about as many moons. And three more lusty cheers for the Old Flag and the editorial quill! Up to date, the Lords Day, under the new dispensation, has suffered no perceptible diminution in grace Also, theres the high prica of HAVE been introduced as from Ohio, but I am a little reluctant to say much about Ohios virtues here; because, it I lived In Massachusetts, I would be for Gov Calvin Coolidge for President- You know I do notake tiny Btock in the maintenance of sectional lines In American politics. A Republican from any State in the "Union Is good enough to be President of the United States, I tell you, gentlemen, that the Republican party has never elected but one President since Lincoln that did not come from the State of Ohio.

Let that pass. Because Massachusetts is on the east coast is no reason "why, her statesmen should discontinue their aspirations for National service in the highest positions. I am a believer in Government through political parties, and I do not know but that on that account, Inasmuch as woman suffrage Is shout to be effective. I ought to address the ladies who honor us with their presence. Too Much Wilson Politics la'lbe science of government, and American politics ught to be Just as clean as are the activities of church and school, and if It is not, you women must come in and help ns to'make It clean.

Dont you ever think of segregating yourselves in female parties. Come Into he political parties and get the viewpoint of and association with men. You will like It best In the Republican party. The faddist today who proclaims the abandonment of political parties Is a greater menace to America than the agitator who preaches the overthrow of America by force; because through political parties we have the means of expressing our convictions and aspirations, and out of the composite view of the thiuWng people of America we write the covenant of party faith, which we translate Into party action. Any other way leads us to the instability of the South American republics on the one hand, and to personal dictation on the other.

That is the trouble with the United States tonight too much Wilson, thats all! There would not be any trouble about the League of Nations If It were not for the personal dictation of the President my will or none. I think the sentiment of America Is largely in favor of a considerable cooperation and participation on the part of the United States in a new international relationship which shall tend to promote and preserve the peace of the world. I would not have America hold aloof. But that is quite another thing. I do not think one man is big enough to run the United States of America, much less the world.

There never has been one big enough. There was not one big enough in the formative period of the Republic. There was not one big enough when Abraham Lincoln became the martyr and savior of the Union, when McKinley wrought restoration In America, or when Theodore Roosevelt brought the awakening of the American conscience. There never will be one big enough, and If there were, he could not hand It on to somebody else. exlco It the Republic Is to go on we must maintain political parties as the agencies for expressing popular aspirations and convictions and thought, and then for transmuting those things Into administrations.

Through such a process you have the preservation of the American Republic. I do not want to discuss foreign relations. If we are insistent on spending our time on foreign relations we can find something to engage our -Attention right here at home. There isnt anything the matter with world civilization, except that humanity is viewing It through a vision Impaired in a cataclysmal war. Poise has been disturbed and nerves have been racked, and fever has rendered men irrational; sometimes there have been drafts upon the dangerous cup of barbarity and men have wandered far from safe paths, but the human procession still marches in the right direction.

Rhetorical Autocrat Here in the United States, we feel the reflex rather than the direct wound, but we still think straight, and mean to hold firmly to all that was ours 'when war Involved us. and seek the higher attainment which are the only compensations that so supreme a tragedy may give mankind. America's present need is not heroics, but healing; not nostrums but normality; not revolution, but restoration; not agitation, but adjustment; not surgery, but serenity; not the dramatic, but the dispassionate; not experiment, but equipoise; not submergence in Inter-nationality, but sustainment of triumphant nationality. It Is one thjng to battle successfully against world domination by a military autocracy, because the infinite God never Intended such program, but it Is quite another thiDg to revise human nature and suspend the fundamental laws of life and all of lifes acquirements. The world called for peace, and has its precarious variety.

America demands peace, formal as well asyac-tual, and meanB to have it, regardless of political exigencies and campaign Issues. If it must be a campaign issue, we shall have peace and discuss it afterward, because the actuality la imperative, and the theory Is only illusive. Then we may set our own house in order. We challenged the proposal that an armed autocrat 6hould dominate the world; It 111 becomes ns to assume that a rhetorical autocrat shall direct all humanity. Wc Need Maxi mums There can be no disguising truth.

Speak It plainly. No people ever recovered from the distressing waste of war except through work and denial. There Is no other way. We shall make no recovery in seeking how little men can do; our restoration lies in doing the most which Is' reasonably possible for Individuals do. Under-production and hateful profiteering are both morally criminal, and must be combated.

America can not be content with mlnimums of production today. The crying need Is maxi-mums. If we have maximums of production we shall have minimums of cost, and profiteering will be speeded to its deserved punishment. Money values are not destroyed, they are temporarily distorted. War wasted hundreds of billions and depleted world storehouses, and culti vated new demands, and it hardened selfishness and gave an awakening touch to elemental greed.

Humanity needs renewed consecrations to what we call fellow citizenship. One of the Inevitable inheritances of the war Is high wages. I think they are gotnto abide, and I will rejoice that they do, but only on the condition that the American wage-earner gives high efficiency for the high wages paid. Ills Prayer If I could offer a prayer tonight for this Republic of ours, I would ask God Almighty to make us a simpleliving' people. We are living now like drunken sailors without a thought of America, and without any consideration of our problems.

No. wonder that prices are high. I have been wearing a 31.85 hat for the last two years, and I am wearing it as a protest against high costs. I have been jollied a lot about it, but It Is good enough to kick Into the ring, anyhow. You cant cure this situation with fads.

Gov Coolidge has alluded to the ovetall fad, and that puts up the overall; better try patches fore and aft. I know that the manufacturer and the distributer do not approve of this doctrine, but they ought, because it is more useful than anything else in sobering down this out of this sw'olleu system of floating wealth America ought to have come to a competence, and millions of the sons of this Republic ought to fce owning their own homes, who never owned them before, and there is not such a safeguard against Bolshevism as that. I wish we had the gospel of thrift preached. I pray for sober thinking in behalf of the future of America. Good Old Protection I remember how my heart was thrilled on the occasion of my first visit to Europe.

In London and Berlin, in Paris as well, I saw placards portraying American footwaar as the finest produced. It is well enough to be quantity producers. Let us be quality producers so that the stamp of America will mean the best there Is in the world, the best the world has to offer. I cannot help recalling what has been said on the subject of the coming of the new freedom. We Americans are peculiar with our memories.

If one went out today on the stump to talk the gospel of protection for They may do that In Boston, but they aint that abldin faith In human. Ity at lection time pervadin rooral politics to any great extent. that Is say, th an disreptable politicians that seek sway th tide suffrage by Inrmous methods aint reskin campaign funds that way. They use th Harding method Capn Wats way, for example. I mean.

They dont hire I mean. Influence the voter vote early, vote often, an vote right, but they see that he dont git to th polls at all they dont take ce chances. Where Presidential Lightning Hits Now, one year they was about 15 men working six or eight miles out In a eh Ingle mill an th boss bein somewhat intrested In certain local po-llt-lcal aspects an knowin his gang, he ser Boys tmorroer Is lection day an far be it from me de-prive any of je of th etamal right suffrage.

Th re-sult was that they was mors men 'round th shingle mill all day than at th polls an Im sorry say that th most of them were registered as Dlmmy-crats, an were sorely needed. I supposed that If there was anywhere the purity of the ballot waa maintained it was in the rural communities, remarked the drummer. "Wa-a-a-1, theys a lot things about rooral communities that folks git a wrong Idee about. If you will look la th papers an read about th men who is or was likely be hit by presidential lightning you will see that a. lot of em come from places of about th' same gin-ral class as Hadlocks Mills an there's where they got some of th foundation principles practical politics.

"Speaking seriously and as a fair-minded Democrat, what do you think of Hardings chances? inquired the drummer. "tVa-a-a-l, I dunno; the Republicans have alluz had pretty good luck sendin' In pinch-hitters. But perhaps the most Important element In atUuy Is repetition. That is tb secret of mastery. Never mind If you have forgotten; look It up again.

AH effort and straining to remember la labor lost. Consult the book again. And again and again. Only so comes clear the permanent vision. Repetltio mater studiorum repetition is the mother of learning.

Another essential matter is to understand all you read. Do not assume. Do not take things for granted. Challenge every fact, see the dictionary, the encyclopedia, the teacher. Investigate.

Ask questions. Know. Do not guess. 8tudy regularly whether you feel like It or not. The feeling will come In the grooves of habit.

There can be no strong mental fiber without discipline. And when the habit of etudy is formed, and pursued diligently, you will find it to be one of the most unalloyed Joys of existence.

I am perfectly willing that Europe should sell to us In lines that we do not produce. But I want to favor a poicy that makes America Independent of the world In her production.

We can produce things we used to buy of Germany if we adopt the right policy. We shall be a better and more thrifty people If we rely largely on ourselves. I want America to add something to the worlds rehabilitation. "I am willing to equalize the stanflards of wages and the standards of living throughout the world. But 1 want the world to bring Its standards up to ours, and not lower ours to theirs.

I am not particularly concerned as to what a tariff may be. I am a protectionist, and a goodsdeal like the Methodist is with baptism. If there are any Methodists here, you know what It is; if you are satisfied; pouring, If that Is necessary; immersion when you need it, and redemption under one of the three. My judgment Is that America will be calling for some adjustment of these methods in the year to come. Railroads There is needed, first, efficient production; second, effective transportation.

The products go from highway to railway and from railway to port, and we are going to have more efficient railway transportation in the very near future, because, after an experiment which cost 31.300,-000,000 we have turned the railways back to their former owners. I do not favor the putting of the blighting hand of Government ownership on any enterprise in this republic. When we handed the railways back, the United States Senate took the most forward and progressive step In legislation ever recorded, first by putting a limitation on capital issue, so that there could no longer be exploitation In financing putting a limitation on the amounts capital could earn, and then a limitation on the sums the railroads could charge for services. Then, though it Is not a law, the Senat tad the courage to establish a Government agency for fixing wages, because wages are the chief cos of operation. It did not prevent collective bargaining; It facilitated it.

Here was a case where the Senate had the courage to provide an agency for the administration of exact justice to the workers a tribunal to hear their aspirations, grievances and desires, and to give them, not a promise, but Justice. Who wants more than Justice In the United States? Face to the Front I like to think that we in the United States of America have come nearer to establishing dependable popular Government than any people In the world. Let us cling to the things which made us what we are. We are eminent In the world, jmd self-respecting as no other people ar-9. Yet America has Just begun.

It is only morning In our National life. I believe there is a destiny for this Republic; that we ere called to the inheritance, and are going on to Its fulfillment Let us have our faces to the front Let us cling fast to the inheritance which is ours, never fearing the enemy from without, but watching the enemies from within, and move on to the fulfillment of a splendid deBtiny. i i i i I 1 I I i I I It i i I i 1 I I Dr Crane Says: Study There ar many who know they ought to study, and who try to study, but dont know how to study. Study Is an art. You can wasts a deal of time and energy at It if you dont understand how to go about it.

Long poring over books Is not necessarily study, and the result may be that you are simply bored and wearied and get little from it. In. fact, we sometimes call one "a great reader because he la always digging Into books, when In truth he Is Indulging himself In an excess and is dissipating his mind, making It flabbier Instead of stronger. The mere acquisition of knowledge is not study. To gratify ones curiosity for information may be of nvalue.

8tudy, to be of real use. must be with an object in view. Facts should be acquired for the purpose of employing them. Just as no food is beneficial unless It can he digested. One fact learned for a purpose is worth 20 amassed for the pleasure of the operation.

To look up in th- -v the meaning of the one won' to use Is better than reading the dictionary columns an hour-Books after all are not to be read through; they are to be consulted. There must be a purpose in study, as a path through the woods; without that one wanders aimlessly. Again, to study efficiently one must be interested. Without that It is drudgery. It is the teachers function to awaken that interest, not to allot tasks.

Without appetite eating benefits you little, and wlhout interest study is time lost. Another essential in study is lively atttentlon. A thing vividly Impressed upon you stays with you. If your attention wanders, shut the book, do something else, and com back to it later..
