This shows how careful we should be to set a good example. The French Minister of Industry discovers that fashion can affect a nation’s prosperity. France makes silks, velvets, feathers, rules fashion. Women have been using little material in their dresses, and French industries have suffered. That is to change. Soon American women will find themselves wearing longer skirt«, fashions calling for many yard* of goods. Secretary Hoover, in an able speech, worries about our national morals. “The moral and spiritual may be submerged by our great material success.” He did not say whether submergence would come from the bootleggers, hijacker* and night club* or from high finance. In all ages good men have wor­ ried about the general condition of morals. One fine Roman emperor had to discipline his own daugh­ ter. But somehow the human race manage* tc. stagger along, gradually improving. Every new generation, every new born baby, is a clean page on which a new story of progress can be written. The Treasury Department, Bu­ reau of Efficiency. Crane and Company, currency paper man­ ufacturers, and the Bureau of •Standards combined, after long researen. announce that the life of a one dollar bill is only six months. The average citizen can testify that in some eases the life of a one dollar bill is less than six minutes. James Brand, four yea-s old, wa.i disobedient. His father admit* that he had threatened to cut the boy’s head off, hoping the threat might frighten him into obedience. It had not that effect. On Mon­ day James Brand got an axe and, trying to carry out his father’s idea, cut off the head of his little brother, aged three. He killed the brother. Children Imitate their parents.
