; "The Perfect Fool," with Ed
Wynn, is the- original Broadway

School Head Finds it Lack
ing in Government, Edu
. cation, Religion :
"Though democracy is oar ideal
we lack it In our government, edu
cational, religious and economic
life," was the declaration made
to the Kiwanis club Tuesday noon
by J. S. Landers, president of the
state normal school at Monmouth.
That the country is still intolerant
of various' ideas was illustrated
by the speaker in his comments
upon a certain measure that was
voted upon last pear and which is
now in the hands of the courts.
The measure was not named by
the speaker.
Democracy was likened to a ray
of light," which can be separated
into seven primary elements, each
of which was dwelt upon briefly
by President Landers. .
Freedom was held to be the
first of these elements and was
inculcated in America by the early
settlers. Equality, before the law
and of opportunity was also stress
ed. The third was justice, In re
ligion, commercial, political, so
cial and other activities. Toler
ance was deemed necessary by the
speaker, who said the spirit of
Intolerance is still possessed to a
large degree. Cooperation, both
within and between various or
ganizations was urged. Sympathp
and can be best obtained by put
ting oneself in the attitude of
the sixth element was held vital
ing in love, was described as the
other people, both here and abroad
he said. Brotherhood, culminat
seventh and last element. .
"We have not attained all of
these elements and are only ap
proximating them". President
Landers said. "The citizen of to
day cannot give too much thought
vo these tMnrn. He must be will
ing -to - aid ; the; weak brother' at
uome and abroad, particularly as
sistance and protection for young
republics." '
"In our economic life we lack
much of the democratic spirit.
Business,, industry and economic
life are still carried on for in
dividual interests, which Is fol
lowing the old belief. We need
to , reorganize , our' economic life
and come to a place where we are
willing that the other fellow shall
have - an equal opportunity with
us. The altruistic ' side of our
lives eeds strengthening."
Touching upon international re
Iatlons in closing President Lan
ders said that "if we had cause
to participate In the World war
we, also have legitimate- cause to
participate In European affairs
without entangling ourselves In
il
their broils." He urged that the
present generation be trained to j
be ready for the future. "It is
hard for some people to see the
world as a unity and to be truly
great it is first necessary to be
come servants of all," he said.
MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS

with you. Pa Cosgrove," I said de
cidedly. "And we're wasting time
discussing anything else. Will
you ride with us or the doctor?"
'With the doc, I guess; so if
anything happens to his car I
could help him out. It's been act
ing up a bit, he says."
. "Suppose we run right behind
you," I suggested. "Then if any
thing goes wrong with his car we
can pick him up and lose no time."
"That's the ticket!" Pa Cos
grove exclaimed. "We'll be off in
a jiffy."
The physician, a short stocky
man, with the air of efficiency
and readiness to meet an emer
gency which only the successful
man possesses, already had gone
to his car, and we heard the noise
of its starting as Pa Cosgrove ran
toward it. I turned my own ig
nition switch and swung in close
behind Dr. Moss's car as it started
at breakneck speed down the road.
"Well! I must say, Madge,
this is a 'very queer proceeding,"
Bess began querulously, "Why!
Pa Cosgrove didn't cafe "
"Let me give you a piece of ad
vice, sweet child," Dicky paid laz
ily. "You might as well tackle
that famous rock you know
'this rock shall fly as soon as I
as to budge my missus when she
gets that Puritan conscience of
hers 'sot on an idea. Desides, did
it ever strike you that if we beat
it at this juncture, it would be dis
tinct proof to Smithy's alleged
brain that we did have a hand in
beaning that poor lad? No; I'm
afraid there's nothing to' do but
