ON GOING TO TPIIE typical American always goes to extremes. It is nt once imr k rent est streiifrth, mid our Kreatest weakness.. As a virtue it lias placed the country at tlie top of the liusiness world; hut as a vice it is now keppiiifi this country in a state of depres sion not warranted by the facts. A year ii'o we had an uneoiiti'ollalile Mull market, which, in spite of warnings front all directions, continued until the in evitable catastrophe.. The same quality the absolute refusal to exhibit restraint or moderation which produced that November catastrophe, is now pi'odiie.iiif; another one. 'T'lIK Hears are now in the rip of the same sort of stamped1! that frippetl tle Hulls a year asio. The dear people are now selliiijj; stocks and takiiiK losses as foolishly as they were buyiiiK stocks, with the hope of i rofit in June, 1!)!). The wiser beads are advising people not to sell stocks, today; just as they were advising people not to buy stocks a year imo. And the rank and file are paying just as much attention to the present wnrniiiK u-s they did to the previous one. " YKAH njjo the Federal Reserve was raisiiiK rates to dis courage buying, now rates are being lowered to do the ex act reverse. A year ajjo Secretary Mellon was advising the pur chase of stocks instead of bonds; but if any considerable niim chase of stock instead of bonds; but if any considerable num ber of investors arc following his advice this year, anymore than they did lust, the evidence is lackini;. To the warning from high circles, that there is no sound basis for the present stock collapse, the people are turning the same deaf ear they turned to the warning -from tbe same source a year ago, that there was no sound basis i'or the market, infla tion. . ' TITR tiine-iionnred figure of the Wall Street lamb was, after all, a perfectly correct one. In the mass we are all lambs, or if not lambs we are shyep.; Like sheep we follow the leader, faster and faster, until what started as n movement, soon becomes it stampede. When stocks are going up we all buy; when slocks are going down we all sell. We can't do things by halves. The first thing we throw overboard arc our heads. The last thing we resist are our emo tions. And as a result the majority always lose, they bold the sack at Hie end of the performance, whether the show has been put on by the Hulls or the Hears. IT TS a common practice to 'blame the inevitable deiiouncment to inside manipulation, the higher ups unscrupulous- fleec ing the lambs, and slaughtering the bulls! We doubt it. There is manipulation, of course, but hi still manipulation is founded upon common sense, restraint, anil, above all, an understanding of actual material conditions and human nature. 1 The higher tip minority could not always win, unless they could depend upon the unthinking majority succumbing to the mob spirit and going to extremes. WANTED AN "ISOLATED CALM" THE startling thing about what Mr. George W. Wiekerslinm had to tell the National Conference of Social Work in Bos ton concerning prohibition was chairman of the President's Commission on Law Enforcement saitl it. While we have been attempting to promote abstinence from alcoholic beverages by relying on the power of govern ment to compel, and by the imposition of increasingly heavy penult ics, Great Jit-it it in has been encouraging temperance by regulation of tho liquor traffic, by education in the evil effects of drunkenness, and by the substitution of more wholesome di version. England's success in this ing to Mr. Wickershani, and liy inference one may assume that ho believes our attcmpta at enforcement have failed. Just what is his conclusion from this contrast is left to theimaginntion. Does ho favor the retention of the prohibition amendment, but the cessation of efforts to compel obedience to its intent anil the substitution of an educational cai)tpaign in favor of obedi ence? Or does he favor tho abandonment of the prohibitive policy altogether, and the substitution of a temperance one? It would be well, at any forego any nttempt to show how obedience to the prohibition laws may be enforced, and concern-itself with the other great problems of the administration of justice which lie before it. For, as l'rofessor Felix' Prankrurter told tho conference, the inclusion of tho prohibition quest ion in tho program of study has removed from the atmosphere surrounding the commission "thai isolated calm in which alone the patient work of scientific in quiry can flourish."

Addresa Dr. WUUam Brady Id cart of The Malt Tribune, TIIK VVIXK F CAXC.KIt OP TIIK IIUKAST In 939 cases of enncer of thdj breast referred to on x-ray spoVr, lallst for treatment, tho. histories showed that in nine out , of ton. cases tho first Hign to attract the pat lent's atten tion Is a lumpj pain or nn in jury. In all the 'j ca&es tho average p r o c rufitlnaUo.i was 19 month. Is it any wonder that the treat mcnt of cancer U so often dlsap pointing I On what possiblo pre text or excuso can nny woman let such lump, pain or Injury drift along for 19 months before she makes up her mind to consult hci physician? , Many of theso cases nr referred to tho x-ray man only months after an operation has been done, ampu tation of the breast and dissection of the nodes under tho armpit. The average length of time after op eration before the patients wer? sent for x-ray treatment was 1 5 months. This is not very flatter ing to the practice of surgery in America. In every case where an opera tion Is done for cnneor of the breast tho patient should receive x-ray treatments beginning two weeks after the operation, as t h? best established means of prevent ing recurrence. This rule, follow ed by the most experienced phya Mans, has proved the best course. Tho patient who has rcjonably early surgery plus post-operativ x-ray treatment hn, twice as good a chance of permanent cure os has -the patient who has only the operation. Kvery little while somo womrfn writes to describe sumo such lum pa pain or Injury of the breast and asks whether It Is serious.

A Creek In the linrk. I have n small creek running through the hack of my land and the villnge turned a sewer into it. I wonder if the creek water Is now fit for stock to drink, lias the village the right to do that? (1. M. Answer. The village health of ficer will take a sample of tho water for examination at the state Inborntory. without cost to you. I do not know nbont the legal as pect. I should think that you. would have a fair claim If the water proves dangerously polluted. Great cities still pollute rivers with their raw sewage and by some shenani gan or other escape responsibility .for the damage to cltUens down-! stream. So It may 1h that the village enn do you dirt In the same; way.. with Impunity. Whatever may j have been the excuse in primitive 1 times, there Is no reason whatever! why any stream of public water! should he polluted with raw sewage tfiduy except the rotten plea of municipal economy, and such econ omy is generally In the interest o the grafters of the town.

(Copyright John F. Dille Co.) Screen Life in Hollywood . liy Hobbin Coons, HOLLYWOOD. While many silent picture successes are helm? rejuvenated as talkies, stars un dertaking the task are faced al ways with the prospect of "com peting with . a memory. Years ago the fans saw and liked a picture, and that good 1 m pression re mains for com parisons with the new effort. Norma Tal madge, whose " S m 1 1 I n Through" I'.i 1922 was tre mendously pop ular, did n o t care to attempt a repeat in the talkies and Joan Bennett will take the role. Norma rftilim.l4;c Mary Plckford, who also con sidered it, rejected the story fur tho same reason, and now i seek ing a suitable vehicle for the first of two pictures she plans definite ly for 1030. Miss Plckford, having altered her screen character radically in "Coquette" and "The Taming of tho Shrew," Is loath to return to any characterization savoring of the peppery sweet child of the old days; yet she must letain, in what ever vehicle she selects, her ap peal for the public she built up In those years. "Peg o' My Heart," Lauretta Taylor's old stage success, has been suggested for her, although it was made as a silent picture In 1923. liltirb Ma.sU'riiliKi'H The movies never have been tim id In the use of superlatives in ad vertising. Now. with tho fresh ness of a rejuvenated industry, they appear to have iione on a wil'l spree of competition for extrava gant self-praise. - Kach new talkie noW is horalde'.

Well, the Clock had told them this was to be a very jolly adventure. They were In a large room nnd nil around the room was a biK counter upon which were rows ol ,., dishes filled with ice cream. In front of tho counter were many high stools. "Look at all the ice cream!" shouted John. "We're going .to have some, aren't we?" he asked the Little Black Clock. "Oh, I'm so warm. I'd just love some Ice cream," said Peggy. "Listen for a sechnd or so, nnd ; hear what they have to say," said ' the Little Black Clock. "Dishes of Ice cream can't talk," said Peggy.
