Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
JOHN J. Raekob and a group of
aaaoclatea, we read In the papers,
made a profit of Just under five
million dollars In a week's opera
tions on the New York stock mar
ket in March, 1920.
Here Is the thing to remember:
They LOST IT before the year was
out. .
ABNORMALLY big profits on the
stock market, which, funda
mentally, are gambling profits, are
pretty sure to mesn big losses sooner
or later.
The only kind of business thst
really does anybody any good In
the long run la the business that
CREATES something worth while to
satisfy normal human wants, Includ
ing JOBS..
AS THESE worda are written,
Amelia Earhart Putnam Is
taking off for Harbor Grace, New
foundland, whence she plans to take
off for a flight across the Atlantic
.hoping to be the first woman to
accomplish that dangerous feat.
This writer, while admiring her
reckless courage, deplores her Judg
ment. STILL, it may be that she has to
TRY IT, in order to prove to
herself that she Isn't afraid. v
At any rate, lt'a her affair, and
If ahe is driven by forces that are
atronger than she can resist, this
writer, for one, isn't going to criti
cize. Each of us, after all, must decide
,hla own risks.
FLYING the Atlantic, Juat for the
glory of it, long after It has
been demonstrated that It can be
done, appeala to most, of us as a
foolish enterprise.
. It may be foolish, but at least
it Is more commendable than the
enterprise of the man who erected
a hot dog stand near the Improvised
grave of the poor little Lindbergh
baby, hoping to snatch a profit from
the morbid sightseers who came to
look.
THESE wordaa're written on the
eve of election, and as yet the
noise and the shouting have not
died down. But they will.
People will go to the polls and
vote some of them after mature
and careful consideration of the Is
sues Involved and some of them on
the spur of the moment, prompted
more by prejudice than by Intelli
gent thought and sincere determina
tion to serve the greatest good of
the greatest number.
DEMOCRACY la far from perfect.
Still, what human Institution
IS perfect?
And who are we to criticize? Per
,hsps, after the most careful and
logical consideration of all the la
sues involved in the election, our
considered votes may be no nearer
right than votes cast on impulse
and sympathy.
Sympathy la at least a warmly
human qusllty.
IN THIS country, we are Inclined
to get all worked up over elec
tions. We are SURE our man la
right, and the other fellow's man
all wrong.
It'a a great game.
STILL, don't laugh at It. It does
us good to get sll worked up.
About the most terrible thing that
can happen to us la to get so wise,
so cocksure and so world-weary that
we are no longer capable of enthus
Isams. When you are no longer capable
of enthusiasms, you mlg.1t as well
be desd.

BEVERLY HILLS, Cal., May
20. See a lot of piotures o
Mrs. Viiicoiil. Astor and society
women of Nov York, taking
up nickels on the street to aid
anti-proliil)i(inn.
Such antics as that is sure to
win the small town and the
farm women over. Yes sir, right
over to the opposito side.
I'll bet there is more fool
things done for publicity sake
that defeat their own purpose
than ever aided it. There is but
one reason that prohibition
won't be repealed and it'a not
numbers either. It's because the
wrong people want it repealed.
