(tVKalb Herald) A Jolly bunch of our young people went on a -kodaking expe dition Sunday that resulted in many exposures and a very en joyable time. An outraged cltlten who oan't 'afford to buy an auto lloenae, Is mad enough to take a trip around the world.

A farmer went to one of our gro cery stores and bought some eggs and had them charged; then he took the eggs to another grocery store and sold them for the cash and took the money and bought gasoline with It, (Harrlsburg Times.)

The Country EVEX those who oppose immediate payment of the veterans cash bonus and they are many must admit, that the veterans took their defeat at the hands of the senate, like good sports and good citizens. Instead of mounting a soap box and trying to inflame the passions of his disappointed followers, W. W. Waters, the bonus army leader, urged them to take the blow, like good Americans on the chin, and return quietly to their camps. His excellent advice was followed. In marked contrast to a similar situation nearly 40 years ago when Coiey's army marched to Washington, there were no disorders, no riots, no calls for the police, no marshalling of the militia. There wasn't even a chanting of the Red Hymn. In fact, according to press dispatches, back in their camp the members of the bonus army joined in singing America, and sang it with a will. e SO don't worry about this devastating depression, ending in a Bolshevik uprising, brethren.

S. C, at the expense of its bitter rival, Eugene. ,' i ' Such important issues should be fought in the open and on j their merits. Absolute frankness should be the policy on both I sides. Opponents of the initiative measure have repeatedly asked where the money is coming from. Proponents of the measure have repeatedly refused to say. . We repeat the time has come for the sponsors of the bill to abandon such a polioy and put all their cards on the table. It Cant Be Done! A SHORT time ago ex-President Coolidge wrote a very con- vincing article in the Saturday Evening Post, favoring the payment by Europe of its war debts to this country. ' A few days later the Republican party in its platform praised the Smoot-Hawley bill, and reaffirmed its faith in a high pro tective tariff. Now some wise man should come forward, and tell the people just how these two proposals can be oarried out. e A liU experts are agreed the war debts CAN'T be paid in currency or gold. They can, in the final analysis, only be paid in GOODS. But how oan Europe pay America in goods when this coun try erects a tariff wall against the importation of those goods. The most frequent answer to this is something as follows: America has had a protective tariff during nearly all its history. In spite of that tariff, Europe has shipped billions of dollars to this country in various manufactured produots and raw materials. Why can't Europe continue to do this, and thus pay the war debts! IT'S AN intricate problem and the present writer does not pre- tend to be an export in this line. But, as we see it, the seri ous flaw in that answer is a failure to realize that the World war marked a now epoch, the United States went into it as a dobtor nation and came out the ohief creditor. Before the war, the amazing material development in this country was vory largely financed in Europe, particularly in Great Britain. John Bull loaned the money, Uncle Sam paid in goods. The situation today is prooisely reversed. Uncle Sam fi nanced the world war, and also financed the post war recon struction. The time has eome for Europe to pay in goods, to the country that loaned hor money. REAT Britain recognized this fundamental economio change by abandoning free trade and adopting protection. Up to dcte this country, at least as far as the Republican party is concerned, has rofused to recogaize this fundamental change, and clinging to protection can't make out why Europo doesn't go back to free trade. It would appear that the G. 0. P., as far as the tariff is concerned, is a victim of what the high browa term "obscurantism." Jenkins' Comment (Continued from Page On ) tlon price demand la lacking. "Still, by using the most careful economy I'm managing to get enough to eat and keep a roof , over my head, and so far, on this baala, I'm succeeding In breaking even, "That's about the beat anybody can hope to do In time euch as these." rpHEN he paused and .thought a moment.

Copyright King Features Synd Inc. Government, patriotism, gratitude arid business meth ods, plus our national idea of justice are all mixed up in this. The Rock Island railroad owes about nine million dollars to banks, due this summer. The Rock Island also needs money for its own purposes and asks the government Reconstruc tion Finance corporation for a loan of ten millions. T,he cor poration says "all right, if you pay off half what you owe the banks now." The Rock Island will get its ten millions FROM THE PUB LIC and the banks will get half their loan. Many men sent to war aome yeara ago that need money owed, would like to pay their debts and have something left for their own use, but there Is no reconstruction finance corporation for veterans. They are told: "You should be ashamed to exploit your country. Your children are In need? What of it. DON'T EXPLOIT YOUR COUNTRY." . A railroad that owes to banks and needs money for itself ahould have aome way of getting the money, it It can be arranged. Prosperity of rail roads and banks Is essential, to national prosperity. But many wives and. children of veterans must wish that their hus band and father had been a bank or a railroad, Instead of being only an American soldier. M " It Is aald the railroads will repay these loans. Perhaps so, perhaps not, with some probability on the NOT. The veteran would aurely repay, for the money they ask for now la com ing to them from the government aa a bonus In a short time, anyhow and the government could not possibly lose Its money. Between a man needing a few hun dred dollara, and a corporation need ing many millions of dollars, the difference I great. , ' Again European papers emphasize the fact that war debt problems are to be solved, simply, BY NOT PAY ING ANYTHING TO THE UNITED STATES. French papers say that Europe now present "a united front to the United States." and this coun try muet yield, aa gracefully aa possible. If the gentlemen welch, of course they will welch. But the debts, will be kept alive In our memory, at least. And when Europe, In its next war, which will come, when Russia, Ger many and Italy feel atrong enough, arranges a new ' series of "united fronts," of a different sort, we shall be observers, not shipping any men or any billions. And, as tor the debts, there are more ways than one of collecting from a dishonest debtor. Our populatlonla chsnglng, with out our knowing it. We exclude Aslatlo Immigration, but Asiatic Filipinos come In ten of thousands, because their Islands are "American sol." For the same reason Porto Rlcana come in great numbers, good work ers, like the Filipinos, doubtless, but a new element in our popuistton. There are one hundred thousand Porto Ricans now, in New York alone, tens of thousand more coming In. A difficult problem, especially In these unemployment days.

It all turned out aa you aald they did stratgftten out beautifully. Today ltary Academy at West Point. He la 17 years old and won the first al ternate appoint ment, when he graduated from high school. But he Is much perturbed lest he fall on account of hts stature. He la just 6 feet S Inches tall. His father la 5 feet 7li Inches tall and I am 5 feet S Inches tall. The military academy authorities seem shocked at the boy's low stature. Why haa he not grown? He weighed four pounds and a few ounces at birth he waa the first born of twins. His twin brother lived only two days. Is there any hope of In creasing his stature now? (Signed by the boy's mother). I don't know whether It would be possible to add that little Inch the military regulations prescribe. If the boy's physician will take an Interest In the attempt It would at least be worth while trying to make the grade. I would suggest these two lines of treatment: - 1. Two doses of Insulin dally, which must be administered hypo dermlcally shortly before the regular meal time. Any good physician can show any Intelligent child or adult how to take his own insulin. A course of Insulin Injections will definitely Increase the weight of almost any underweight Individual, and It does not matter at all whether the indi vidual haa or has not ttlebetes, so the old foull practlctloner can't laugh this off on that score. Some striking benefits have been obtained by this use of Insulin for the speclflo pur pose of Improving nutrition In vari ous conditions aside from diabetes, among them ; simple underweight, emaciation from mental disturbance, and marked loss of weight from tu berculosis. 2. A course of ductless gland hor mone medication. Whether this should be thyroid or pituitary or ad renal gland hormone or a combina tion of two or three of these Is a question which the boy's own physi cian can best determine If any such treatment is to be tried at all. Cer tainly this type of treatment has brought about marked growth In height In a number of Instances where growth was much retarded In childhood, and this boy ts still a child. In case these suggestions prove apparently helpful we hope Mother won't wait IS years to tell us about it, for probably there are many other young persons who would give almost anything to add a wee bit to their stature If that Is to be consummated. Sixteen years ago we didn't know well, I forget just what we didn't If w Today's Guest Editorial The Mall Tribune, thanks to the courtesy of the American Legion, Is printing a series of guest editorials written on Important questions of the day hy prominent citizens In various walks of life. The Mall Tribune offers these editorials as an interesting feature but does not necessarily endorse the sentiments expressed. Number 1. PEACE TIME PATRIOTISM - By Geo. B. Cortelyou President, Consolidated Gaa Company of New York It has been said that "patriotism consists Just as much In believing In one's country In a depression as In fighting for It In war." Few will dis pute this statement, difficult though It be to give It practical application: for It la in some respects harder to overcome a depression, many of whose elements are Invisible, Intangible and Incalculable, than to overthrow the armed forces of a visible foe, whose members end resources are known. A depression has Its casaultles no less than war; like war. It entails sacrifice and suffering, from which no class Is exempt. In fact, a depres sion Is a kind of war In which we are all enlisted "for the duration," whether we will or not. It Is up to us to plsy our part and do our duty as good soldiers. On of the first essentials Is mor ale. A splrtt of defeatism at this time Is ss dangerous as It would have been In 1017-18. To glv way to panic or despair would be the surest means of precipitating the vecy disaster we are trying to avoid. Nor 1 there Just ground for uch an attitude. When we remember the optimism that waa rampant only a few year ago, when confidence In a never-ending pros perity waa unbounded, and when we reall-as we do now-how unwarrant ed such a state of mind was, does not this suggest at least the possibility that the opposite state of mind may be equally unwarranted? True, we hsve lost much, but we have much more left, and what we have left Is far more Important than wet, and that 1 th biggest new sine th country changed to a boot leg liquor basis.

He teaches Greek is th Qeneial Theological seminary, E8E LEGS WERE BOWED know then, but probably we didn't know enough to tell that mother to feed her baby a good plain cod liver oil ration dally from the age of one month to the end of the first year, beginning with 10 drops or so, mixed with a little orange or tomato juice on the spoon, twice dally, and gradu ally Increasing the dally ration till at four or six months the baby takes a teaapoonful two or three times a day. That is enough. It supplies the sunshine vitamin D, also vitamin A. Probably we didn't know then that lots of sunshine on baby's na ked skin prevents rickets and bow ing of legs and retardation of growth too. These things won't hurt any young person who aspires to grow more. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Raw Milk Makes Beit Teeth I am In a position to know that the raw milk sold In today Is of the highest standard, thanks to our health department, particularly Dr. . Twenty-five per cent of the raw milk supply exceeds the requirements for certified milk, and the other 75 per cent has an average butter fat content as high as pas teurized milk and a bacteria count (as low aa pasteurized milk. So by en dorsing raw milk you are helping to keep the small Independent daily man In business. (S. P.) Answer. I advise the use of raw milk ONLY when your local health department approves the milk. In England the liberal use of ordinary raw milk haa been found to prevent decay of the teeth In childhood.

Wa have suffer ed no catastrophe of nature; we have not been stricken by earthquake, famine of pestilence. Our farms, mines, railroads and factories are still intact. Indeed, so far aa our production facilities are concerned, we are embarrassed not by too little but by too much. This does not mean that everybody's wants have been sat isfied, and a surplus left over. It means that the basis of exchsnge by which normally the markets are cleared of goods has been disrupted, with a resultant stoppage In the cus tomary flow of goods into consump tion. The immediate and pressing need Is to establish right conditions for the resumption of the Interrupt ed flow. Many of the adjustments necessary to bring thla about have been or are being made; many yet remain to be made. Just when the point marking the turn will be reachod nobody knows. Probably no one will recog nise it when it appears but only af ter certain perspective has been gain ed. The problem, however. 1 gradual ly becoming more clearly defined, and with clearer definition la coming a better understanding of the measures to be taken. This 1 not a time for shallow optimism, for sitting back In the complacent belief that "every thing will be all right," but for calm and reasoned confidence In the fu ture of our country made effective by a combination of faith and works a combination which haa won for us In the past and will do so again.

The truth would come home to you that a newspaper, to be of value to a community or government, must not be a predatory animal ready to spring onto any victim w.hich might appear.
