A HKAJVHINO QFK.STION and do not tlie thing which I There hasn't been a fire in Washington now for several weeks, hut if thefe were another, and Dolly and Alice were among the guests, who would jump first? T r Vor those who are dubious of the effects of the long skirts, esthctically, an Omaha surgeon has come forward and ad vised the girls to put their feet right up on the office desk. The machine ago creates new problems in morality be cause so many mistake the still, small voice of conscience for another body squeak. In the new soviet calendar there are months with mon ickers like Hammer, Sickle and Sheaf. Ifow about Bill for January and Lawn Mower for July? A gold rush resulted in Ontario when a nugget was found in the crop of a turkey. Personally, we would rather wait until this year's turkeys are about two months old before staging a rush to the Arctic. GREED THE MOTIVE Certain people who scoff at the religion of the ancients would rearrange the scheme of society and do away with private ownership. Their theory is that all properties should be held in common, that thp abilities of all should be pooled and the earnings of all used to benefit all. . Critjcs of the scheme point to the fact that man' is selfish and lazy, and assert that nothing less than the hope of a nelfish and personal profit could inspire him to exert him self. They argue, moreover, that sponsors of the scheme are. inspired solely by a desire to get something they have failed to earn in competition with their fellow men that their motive is greed, and therefore no more worthy than the motive of any hard-boiled and selfish go-getter, i It is a very good scheme, as anybody can sec. All that is required to make it a complete and everlasting success is a world full of people wholly unselfish people who prefer to work for the other fellow's good rather than for their own people who will deny themselves rather than see another in want. ; SucK socialistic and Utopian schemes can not work if the desire to get is their inspiration. They can not fail if their inspiration is the desire to give. Hut if everybody possessed this desire to help others there would be no need for such schemes. And dreamy-eyed visionaries who sponsor such idealistic theories' can not plead that the world has never given them a fair trial. Thousands of socialistic communities have been founded without one of them surviving the generation of the founders, and when the time of dissolution arrived there were always a few who had cornered the wealth of the community.
