The current notion that women nowadays don't wear much of anything is refuted by the announcement that Suzanne Lenglen brought over nine trunks full of clothes. The federal tax collections show another large gain. De spite reductions in rates, more money pours in. This amazes the same type of person who finds it a mystery that Henry Ford can get rich while paying higher wages and giving shorter hours than many other employers. DEMOCRACY. In the general questioning of all accepted beliefs and tra ditions which' now seem to be agitating the public mind, democracy is coming in for a fair share of investigation. Is democracy working? Can it be made to work? Isn't a dictatorship really more efficient? No matter what we call our government, is it not an oligarchy which really rules? I'Onrr.ANU. Ore., Oct. 20 (AT) The Multnomah amateur n( ti le club announced formally to day that It bus disbanded Its foot ball team and that games sche- luled for the season are cancelled. Consent of Olympic club of Sun Francisco for calling of a game set for November 8 made .-the Multnomah clubs fiction possible. The club had a game scheduled with the West Seattle athletic club October 30. The Henttlo organiza tion will be paid any 'expenses it has Incurred as a result of expect ing to meet Multnomah. A. game with Willamette university had re cently ben arranged for next Katiirdny. This .also will )e can- lied. ' . , , ' The Multnomah club suffered dofent by big scores in the first two games of the season, nud there was small attendance at the game, here lost Saturday with Gonauga. These factors figured In the deel- j slon of the club directors to dt- j rontlnite football activities. John Tuning, president of Mult nomah club, today Issued "a state-j ment saying that the club was tin able to keep pace with the advance In college foot bull.

Dr. Will Dimwit, author of The Story of Philosophy, pleads in the current Harper's for definite training for gov ernment of young people so inclined j&s doctors are trained for medicine, lawyers for law. lie says unless we put in public office "men trained us thoroughly as men prepare for far less vital tasks then assuredly democracy is a failure, and it might lie better for the world if America had never lured and deceived the hopes of men." It is plain to every person who observes in any degree the clumsy workings of our political machinery, the futility of most of our efforts nt government, that the critics of democracy are right. It is not, so far, succeeding according to the great hope it has so long inspired. But after an after noon spent in watching such a movie as Ben Hur, or an evening over any book dealing with the history of the past few thousand years m any vital or picturesque manner, one acquires a different point of view. True, our machinery is clumsy; but would we, any of us, voluntarily, exchange our clumsiness for the so-called Jtoman efficiency, if with it we had to take Roman intoler ance and cruelty? Perhaps n great ruler here and there has kiyen more encouragement to art and handicrafts in one reign than democracy in centuries. But would we exchange our slow cultural growth for Medieval tortures? The glory that was Greece was built over a foundation of slavery, whose "inside story" people of today would allow no news paper to print. We make mistakes. We are stupid. But we move. We muddle through. And every move, slow, dragging though it be, is in the direction of greater comfort and growth for humanity as a whole. , When these criticisms are made upon democracy one is sometimes led to wonder if it is not democracy itself that brings them to pass. Is it not the higher level of education, the greater sense of leisure which permits, if for u moment only, the straightening of tho back and the lifting of the head is it not, in a word," the higher standards which through democracy we have acquired, that makes us scrutin ize so closely our democracy and demand of it so much more than it has already given?
