PAGE THREE
EVEN THE KING
CAN'T GET A DRINK
In London we visited a fashion
able restaurant called the Embassy
Club.
It is a place where the hoity
toity dance, and my wife and I had
the pleasure of feasting our middle
class eyes on a large collection of
young lords and ladies, with a
sprinkling of multi-millionaires and
even a couple of dukes.
A little after midnight a waiter
stepped up to each table, according
to the law and custom in England,
and reminded the diners politely
that the bar was about to close. A
few minutes later he came again
and asked each diner to finish bis
drink because the glasses must be
removed.
A gay party had arrived only a
little while before, headed by a
younger son of His Majesty, King
George. I watched with Interest to
see what would happen when the
waiter visited that table. Would a
prince of the blood be asked to give
up his glass like any common man?
Or would a polite evasion occur in
the case of one so exalted?
My question was quickly answer
ed. The waiter did, indeed, go to the
Prince's table last But when he
arrived, the Prince took one last
gulp and handed over the glass
with a smile.
A few hours previously we had
sat in one of the English law courts.
A young man had been arrested
only two weeks before charged with
the henious crime of murdering his
mother. In the space of a few dayB
he was brought to trial. The Jury
was chosen in a couple of hours, the
case was heard, including the tes
timony of medical experts, the ver
dict was found, and the murderer
was sentenced.
In our country the crime would
have been a newspaper sensation
for months, while the trial dragged
its dreary way through the maze
of legal obstruction.
We are ahead of the English in
many ways. We do business more
quickly, with more flexibility, and
more steam. But when it comes to
respect for the law they have us
lashed to the mast. We pass thou
sands of laws and disregard them.
The English pass fewer, but they
certainly respect and enforce them.
If you kill your mother over there
you're hung, and promptly.
And when the bar closes even the
king can't get a drink.
INSURANCE
The General Motors Corporation
has extended its system of insuring
the lives of all employees to cover
its agents and their employees.
Coupled with that is a thrift plan
to enable employees to share in the
company's profits by investing a
small percentage of their own
wages. This and other large com
panies are engaged all the time in
efforts to work out equitable meth
ods of helping those who work for
them to be certain of Independence
In old age or because of illness or
accident, and to leave their families
provided for In case of death.
If large fndustries can do this,
why not small ones as well? It is
on the cards that the time is coming
when everybody who works for any
body else will be required to leave
a certain percentage of his salary
or wages In trust, to be matched by
an equal amount contributed by the
employer, to form the basis of a
fund to take care of him after a
given number of years of work, or
at a given age, or If incapacitated.
And coupled with this will be some
form of employment insurance, so
that nobody can be thrown out of
work with nothing to live on.
WEALTH
The sole heir to $100,000,000 or
more died in New York the other
day. Miss Ella Wendel, 77, only
survivor of six sisters and brothers
whose grandfather was a partner
of John Jacob Astor, the fur-trader,
lived alone in an old house on Fifth
Avenue, and died alone except for
doctors and nurses. She had not a
single relation left In the world.
Every dollar of the great fortune
which she had to dispose of Is in
New York city real estate. The lot
on which her home stands is valued
at nearly four million dollars.
Grandfather Wendel laid down a
rule for his family; "Buy land,
never mortgage, never sell, never
build, never make repairs." Build
ings deteriorate, tenants sometimes
do not pay their rent, but land val
ue always increasse. The purchase
of land in any growing community
Is the swiftest certain road to
wealth. Over any twenty-year per
iod the owner of well-lo!ated va
cant land in or close to a big city
will have made several times more
money simply by sitting still and
watching the population grow than
he could have made by putting the
purchase price into a savings bank,
into bonds or endowment life insur
ance or any of the other perfectly
safe forms of investment.
DEPTHS
Divers can now go to unheard-of
depths by the use of mixture of oxy
gen and helium to breathe, instead
of ordinary air. The greatest dan
ger to working under pressure, as
in diving suits and in deep cais
sons or tunnels, is the escape of ni
trogen from'the compressed air into
the blood and tissues, forming bub
bles which set up a serious illness,
often resulting in death, when the
workers return to normal pressure.
The U. S. Bureau of Mines has
been experimenting with the helium-oxygen
mixture and finds that
it serves as well as normal air for
breathing purposes, while the he
lium is not absorbed into the body
as nitrogen is.
This discovery may result in the
recovery of treasure from the
wrecks of many ships which lie too
deep on the ocean bed to be reached
by diving methods now in use.
CALENDARS
It is on the cards that sometime
perhaps In five years, perhaps in
fifty, we shall have a new calendar.
Everybody who has to do with the
present method of dividing the year
agrees that it is clumsy and un
economical. Some are for making
a radical change at once to a thirteen-month
system, which many
business houses now us in comput
ing their own budgets and making
their own comparative analyses of
business conditions. Others believe
that would be too much of a change
and prefer to take two bites at the
cherry.
Not until the League of Nations,
the Pope, the Angelican church, the
leaders of the Jewish religion and
the head of the Mohammedan
church agree will there be any rad
ical change from the present calen
dar. EINSTEIN
Back in his home in Germany,
Einstein, the great scientist, tells
what he thinks of the United States.
"A land of cooperative effort," he
says, "quite different from our In
dividualistic Europe. Everybody
team-work."
That is not the conception many
people have of America. We think
of Europe as a hotbed of Socialism
if not of Communism, and of our
own country as a place where ev
erybody goes his own way without
giving enough attention to his
neighbor's problems.
Probably both points of view are
both right and wrong. Professor
Einstein saw, principally, only men
of science, working together In
laboratories and universities. Their
methods may be much more co-operative
than those common in busi
ness, without signifying any such
wide-spread team-work as the good
Professor attributes to our whole
people. And it may well be that we
hear a great deal more about Com
munism than the facts warrant, be
cause it is more sensational than
the fact that most Europeans go
strictly about their own business
and let other people alone.

HUMFTY DUMPTY.
"It's an 'ill wind that blows no
body good" and so when Humpty
Dumpty, in price at least, came
tumbling down off his perch, we
who love to make good things to
eat are reveling in the use of eggs
without the slightest worry as to
being uneconomical.
In order not to tire of eggs when
served every day, and yet, even
more often, there must be new
ideas, new methods. In cooking
epgs there are two main principles
of cooking to keep in mind: first,
high temperatures toughen the
coagulated protein, and second, long
cooking will also toughen the pro
tein. This is the reason that' eggs
are never boiled when cooked prop
erly, but are put in hot water in the
top of a double boiler and allowed
to cook at a temperature below

WAS A STRUGGLE
"I had been in mighty bad health
for eighteen months before I began
taking Sargon," stated Chas. W.
Morgan, 1746 E. 15th St., Portland,
CHAS. W. MORGAN
Oreg., assistant froeman for the Or
egon Worsted Co. "My blood was
thin and at night I'd have awful
cramps in my legs. I had no appe
tite, my kidneys were over-active,
and I was so weak that getting
through my day's work was a strug
gle. Three bottles of Sargon built
up my blood and system, overcame
the cramps and regulated my kid
neys. I've never felt stronger or
better! Sargon Pills didn't gripe
or upset me at all and helped a lot
by keeping my bowels regulated
perfectly."
