ABOLISH IT? XEVER! , i
A recent story In the' paper con
veys the mors or less Interesting
Information that Pullman car por
; ters in Canada are scckinc a wage
adjustment that will enable them to
get along without' tips.' This agi
tation, one learns, Js based not upon
' ' a false pride that rebels at acccpt
- anco of gratuities, but upon the
alleged fact that the traveling pub
lie Is growing tighter year by year.
Aside from commercial travelers,
for whom the pain of tipping Is
. eased by that comfortable Institu
tion ltnown colloquially as the
' scandal sheet, the Canadian por
ters assert that a wave of economy
seems to have hit those who ride
In sleepers. So. they ' say, they
must have more wages or starve. .
In this situation a few hopeless
optimists think they see the germ
r :of a movement that will- ulllmatcly
,:do away with tipping altogether,
"teubstitutlng for It a wage adequate
' to . jiieet ,lhs employe's needs.
. "'Hopeless optimist" Is an exceed-
lngly mild . and complimentary
term for those who., hold , such
views. "Chuckle-headed -idiot'
' would be 'nearer the exact truth.
Tipping will never be done away
With for the simple reason that Ihe
world Is full of nincompoops whose
little, souls are comforted amazing
; ly by the act of tipping. They are
; unimportant cogs, for the most
part. In the world's big machine,
. and It gives them pleasing delusions
of grandeur to lay down a tip and
receive the deferential thanks :of
the experienced tippee. "That Is
about the only way they can ever
hope to receive much in the way'of
deference, and they do hot pro
pose to give It up. i.;-.
The tlppibg evil If it Is .an evil
Is Infinitely worse In the East
', than In the West. ' iSack there .'a.
5 ; tip Is expected for every kind of
, ' service that is given. One tips the
. barber who shaves him, find then
: t he tips the pirate who, kept his coat
4 and hat while lifts, shiving was be-
' ' ing done, hcn'hd'tlps the African
. chief who brushes his clothes as he
walks out and steps over to the
wash room and tips the boy who
hands him a towel when he washes
: his hands. And so on through the
: wholo scheme of daily life.
The easterner likes it He loves
the temporary deference that the
. act of tipping wins . for. . .him. It
makes him feel as if he amounted
' to something and he wouldn't give
It up for tho world. It Is said on
; good authority that the reason the
cafeteria failed of success .back
East is that there are bo waiters to
tip, and so the easterner, simply
went elscwhero to do his eating.
Tipping in the. West Is not ah In
, stitution as it is on the eastern
' coast, but anyone even out here
' i who talks of doing away with the
tipping evil is spilling a lot of fu
tile conversation through his hat
' Tipping exists, and continues thrift
ily to exist age after age, not be
cause of ,a charltablo belief that the
i rociplont of the tip needs the money
, .but becauso of tho feeling of per
' . sonal importance the feudal con
descending of superior to Inferior
that is Induced by tho giving of
. the tip.
. IN JUSTICE TO HINDENBIRG
It Is worth sotting down, as an
interesting bit of history and as a
matter of human justice, that old
Hlndenburg has fooled the world
In peace more than he did in war.
When the grim pld field marshal
was chosen president ot Germany,
nearly overybody, including this
.writer, took. It as' a virtual restorar
lion of the monarchy. Hlndenburg
was known as a representative of
lhe monarchists, the conservatives
the" Junkers, the militarists He
had never made any secret ot hit
attitude. , . .
The German royalists plucked up
new hope. The rest of the world
nearly lost hope. Prance had heart
failure. Illndenburg's pledge to
rule as a "constitutional president
of the German republic" was dis
counted. It was feared that tho
lloheniotlerns might soon be bark.
At boat, observers looked for a new
reign of hate and an Interminable
period of bickering In Europe, with
Germany Quarreling ' with Krance
and resisting ever)' attempt to en
force the peace treaty.
But Hlndenburg has kept hit
word. He has stood for the Lo
carno treaties, for a new and
friendly understanding with France. I
for co-operation with the allies In
re-shaping Europe, for disarm-j
amcnt all around, for opposition to
tho monarchy, for a genuine op
portunity for democracy in Ger
many. With the signing of the Locarno
treaty In London, the allied and as
sociated world may well tip Its hat
to that gruff old soldier and as a
level-headed statesman, a man of
honor and a fairly good sport
BEHIND AMERICA
Paul Loebe, president ot the Ger
man retchstag, sees Europe "hope
lessly lagging behind America and
unable ever to catch up again.
That Is the Impression he gained
in a recent visit to this country.
'Ho attributes our lead to Amer
ica's "gigantic technical develop
ment" and Its capacity !or business
organisation. These are character
istics in which' Americana were
accustomed, before the world war.
to regard Germany1 as the leade.
American ability to do business
In a big, organized way assuredly
has gone beyond German capacity.
This was probably Inevitable. But
it was Germany's rash plunge Into
the big war adventure that gave
America her present primacy lu
this field, by setting Germany
back when she was at her best
With peace and Intensified effort
Germany and the rest of Europe
may regain their lost ground, but
It Is hardly conceivable that they
will ever catch up to America
again In Industry and prosperity..
' A Chicago wife wants a divorce
because, she says, her deaf mute
husband swore at her with his
fingers. Fingering a rolling pin
suggestively, we would say, would
have been the proper retort In that
case.
Eleven letters written by Ben
jamln Franklin have been sold at
auction for $2900. If the great
apostle Of' thrift could have fore
seen that he would have contracted
a severe case of writer's cramp. -
The correspondents are pro
claiming sadly that Kip and Alice
can't live together now. Perhaps,
though, they haven't read the sen
sational papers and don't know
how bad they are.
They're resourceful devils down
in Florldf, and the chances are
that after that 14-lnch rain all the
Miami landlords got out 'signs
reading "rooms with private bath.'
Prospective husbands will note
with apprehension that rifle prac
tice for co-eds has . been started

Thanksgiving l the American

thmisht. tno: tttnuks aro given Al.
try to it
thanks for ntiun
tluut hurvests, na
well as fur ea.
enpo from ills
Hitter and ills
ease. Thnt first
day ot thanks
giving In the
Plymouth colony
was set aside by
Governor Brad
ford in gratitude
for tho sa fe gar
nering of the
WJomsoopnANa
r:ch harvest the Pilgrims so sadly
needed.
The men of the colony were sent
out for wild turkeys. The woman
made the ple and prepared the
vegetables. The children found tho
cranberries. Their combined of
fotts resulted in tho meal which
became the standard and model of
all Thanksgiving duy dinners since.
Improved methods of farming
irrigation, better tools, selected
seeds, scientific fertilization, and
advanced methods of conservation
have raised man above tho dungers
ot drought and famine.
Modern transportation and cold
storage have placed at man's dis
posal the fruits, vegetables and
flesh products of the world.
Sociological studios with the re
moval of the essential causes of
poverty, have Improved social con
ditions and made It posslblo for al
most every family to have soma of
the luxuries as well as the neces
sities of life.
We take It for granted now that
every year shall be a year of abun
dant harvest, and every dny a day
of abundant food for the Individual
and tho family. Tho original Incen
tive for a special day of thanks
giving operates no more.
It Is no longer a question of
sufficient food. Indeed, there has
come a time when man must bo
taught what not to eat and how
to control his nppetite for food.
To my mind, tho particular thing
In this generation for which we
should thank AlmlKhty God. is the
advancing knowledge ot how to
live.
Too long hn man made a play
thing Of his body. Ho has put Into
his stomach anything his palato
craved. He has smoked, drunk,
gorged, abused his body, given way
to his sordid paasiona neglected his
teeth, mistreated his kidneys and
liver in reality, ho has made a
plaything of his body.
. On this Thanksgiving day I thank
God that the public and the indi
vidual are becoming educated as re
gards hearth. They are learning
what to eat and when to eat. They
are learning and 1 observing the
simple rules ot health.
The body Is the temple of tho
soul It. may bo said to be God's
temple. I thank Clod man Is learn
ing to respect God by guarding His
temple. That Is my Thanksgiving
day thought.
