results are injurious is undoubted. "Paying" for the "right

Valentine's Day
.. February is always a sort of dull, intermediate month,
j with little to recommend it to anybody. This year it is a
i dun ana neavy nioiuii in world al lairs. Jiut m this and
in every year it has one bright spot. That is Valentino's
t duy. The day, like other cheerful festivals, has been turned
j over by common consent to the youngsters and to callow
jj youth whose thoughts still have a frankly sentimental bias.
f I Bu(;iwhy'.shu)1his bo so ? NolitWy iW IW 'old to eaPe
g about being beloved; and tho more hopelessly matter of
i fact life has become, the more it needs sweetening with a
t little unabashed affection. Nobody is too old lo enjoy val
f entities, and nobody is too old to send them. As missives
: of youth expressing budding affection, they are charming
i trifles. As tributes recalling tenderness into lives 'grown
"jill't of the habit of expressed affection, they have a far
'deeper significance.
i It makes lilllo difference whether they are affairs of
I hearts and daris in truu valentine style, whether they are
I funny or quaint, graceful or awkward. It is fun to send
I thorn, and it is thrilling to receive them. Those who pass
the day unmarked miss one of life's little opportunities.

Level-Headed Labor
Once inor? has extreme radicalism sought to capture the
(bulled Mine Workers, and again have (he workers rejected
ril-and overwhelmingly held lo true Americanism. This lat-
iiiiL. iHi,...l l i: . i ..... .. - i , , ...
..vviniin. i,y i.iiiiuai e.xiieniisis to ativance Uieir cause
was at Jiili,in:'po!is, where the workers were assembled
m biennial convention. The coninlctencss of llinii- ili.Ovil
bhould convince them of the steatlfaslness of that organi
zation along wilii America's organized labor generally
against disruptive cNti-cmism.
Jlanii'estly tlu iniiic woikers icili.e the richness of
the gifts of Aniei'icani.-ni and rale (he bcnt-fils that are
accruing to thnn under Anierican inslittilinn.s as iiifinitely
prefer.ihle to the .!i.,,!,t (li'r.'lrtnlion that would inevit
ably result from cxlmne lailicili-aii. While the wmkeis
have avowed their pm !,. t,, m,l ,i a irograin that they
term progressive, they have, by their rejection of radicalism,
registered intent to observe orderly professes. In so doing
they pHimoto their own and the nation's best"' interests.
