The rows filled their petaled cups with glee. The drink a sweet to every plant and tree. It hrousht new life unto the growing grain And set the brooks to babbling once again; The world was made a lovely thins to see, Paved for the harvest was the fruit to be. I (Copyright, 1921 The springtime had not done its work in vain! Too much of sunshine makes a bar ren earth, Parched is the soil which never feels the rain, The spirit withers under too much mirth. Beauty is born of trial and of pain. If man Khali bring to blossom his belief, There must be days of doubting and of grief. by Edgar A. Guest.) THE MONEY IS ALL THROWN IN THE LAKE TTHE chief reason why there will be no money for the McKay I creek project this year is that 93 per cent of all the income of the United States government is being expended for war expenses, in one form or another. With so much money going to feed the war god there is little left for other purposes. Conse quently those who seek part of the modest seven per cent of the national income for economic uses are accused of being pork barrel grafters and other varieties of the sinful. The nation cheerfully throws its money into the armament lake but has none for irrigation ; for hydro electric development and other enterprises that would go to build up the prosperity of the coun try and its people. So long as present conditions continue this situation will be with us. So long as we continue our policy of aloofness and iso lation we must keep our powder dry and our fleet up to date. There is no escape from the necessity of preparedness unless we wish to court disaster. But this country has it directly in its power to so alter world conditions that the building of dreadnaught on dreadnaught will no longer be necessary. The League of Nations in which ail principal allied and neutral powers of the lata war are mem bers aims at enforcing peace and fostering disarmament. But we would have none of it and we have no McKay project either. It might be said that the people are getting what they asked for but that is not entirely true. An influential element in he republican party held forth to the voters that should Mr. Hard ing be elected we would either go into the league or get some thing as good or better. Harding was elected but no such hopes Lave been realized as yet. Consequently there is some impa tience manifest. In a most respectful but earnest letter to President Harding, Hamilton Holt, editor of The Independent (New York) calls upon him to disclose his plans for world peace, declaring that the time has come for him to redeem his promises in this re rpect. After recalling Mr. Harding's campaign promise to seek to establish an Association of Nations, Mr. Holt says : . "You have not yet given the American people the slightest inkling of the terms of this Harding Association that you pro pose shall supplant the Wilsn League. . . . You cannot hope to get public opinion behind your association without tak ing your countrymen into your confidence." Pointing out that democratic support is necessary to the rat ification of the covenant of such an association, because the democrats control more than one-third of the senate, Mr. Holt continues: . "Mr. President, the time has come for you to redeem your ,. romises. The country and the world have waited long enough to know just what kind of an association of nations you have in mind. If you delay much further people everywhere will in evitably conclude that either you have no concrete plan at all or else that you propose to put party harmony above world wel fare." That letter was written some weeks ago and the president has not answered it. There is plenty of time yet and the presi dent should not be judged too quickly. He may have something splendid in mind. On the other hand he may not. No one seems to know. Meanwhile that 93 per cent expenditure continues and other countries are arming, too, because, they dont know whether to prepare to love us or to fight us. And the $225,000 allotted for the McKay project on the last day of the Wilson administration is missing and is missed.

DOINGS OF THE DUFFS THINGS CAME IN RAPID ORDER. BY ALLMAN llN MM 1 -fj KRElSLERr I LET HOUSEWIVES BEWARE! HE statistics of the Fire Underwriters show that electricity I causes more fires than any other single cause, and of those, electric irons produce per cent! I he second most pro lific source is matches and smoking; the third is defective chim neys, and so on. Gasoline must answer for a large share of the increase in fires in recent years. There are many, housewives vho use gasoline for cleaning purposes, and who let the open can of it stand near the hearth or the kitchen stove. Those peo ple would not let dynamite lie around in such places, yet it takes eighty-three pounds of dynamite to equal the explosive power of u single eonuii ui. sojjiiuc.
