Pay the Community Chest
can't believe any contributors to the Community Cbest,
intend to welsh, On such an inescapable obligation, at
the present time. The slowness in collections tmiBt be due to
confusion in the publio mind caused by the various p.lans, both
local and national, advanced to relieve suffering and distress.
' This confusion is natural, but the hope it arouses is entirely
fallacious. The obligations of the Community Chest, are not
obligations of the future, but of the present. They are not
for needs that may exist tomorrow, they ere for reeds, that
exist TODAY, and represent relief that has already been con
tracted for. They willxiot be affected in any way, by other
relief plans, and if collections for the Community Chest fall
down, the entire system of local relief falls down, at tni most
critical time,
e e e
MOREOVER payments to the Community Chest, represent
a real DEBT OP HONOR. . The fact that the obligation
is moral, rather than a legal one, only renders the discharge
of the obligation the more imperative.
So the Mail Tribune heartily endorses the appeal by a mem
ber of the Community Chest committee, printed in Sunday's
paper. Failure to pay is not just to the directors of the chest,
or to the workers in the affiliated organizations, or to fellow
oitizens who have lived up to their pledges, it is a violation
of good sportsmanship, good citizenship and good faith.
SO we join in the appeal, for all contributors to the Commu
nity Chest, to pay what they owe and redeem the promises
they made. Only those literally without funds and therefore
incapable of paying, can rightly be excused. V(e feci sure that
if all ehest contributors ABLE to pay, WILL pay now, the
serious crisis which faces the Community Chest and this com
munity, will be successfully surmounted. ' .

In Chicago, 100,000 pieces of
real estate are ordered sold for
taxes.
In New York the best known
hotel, with no mortgage on it
pays about one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars a year
taxes, and costs its owner one
hundred thousand more than it
takes in. '
Such taxpayers will read
with interest that Beloit is the
fourth city in Kansas to hv.s
pend all taxes because the city
owned light and water depart
ments make enough profit to
pay the city 'a expenses.
Chanute, Colby and Augusta
are the three other cities jn
Kansas, tax free, because citi
zens know enough to own
their natural monopolies.
Query: What will be done about
power devoloped by the new Bt.
Lawrence waterway?
In Canada, of course, It will be
owned by the people - aa Canada'a
share of Nlagara'a power la publicly
owned. What about Uncle Sam-
half of the two million hone power
that the waterway . wiu produce?
Will It become the property of the
people, taxed to build the six hun
dred million dollar waterway, or will
It ' be distributed by "our best
minds" among "the right klndx or
people?"
If you think the Amo-lcan people
will be allowed that water power,
you have forgotten Muscle Shoals,
and you do not know much about
United States methods, or about
ONB thing that la the matter with

Farmers complained. The board
memben say the government order
la dictated by th election. If the
order Is not rescinded, the theory
that speculation In grain, aa In
stocks la necessary to prosperity and

"I had always thought of you aa
friend and a physician wise and
kind," writes a correspondent, "but
after reading
your ' article on
marking I must
disagree with you.
An unborn baby
can be marked,
for Z am living
proof of that. I
was born with a
dark red mark
on my che-nk, and
. Htm have It. Now
don't give me
some long-wind
ed name thftt means the same thing.
Everybody calls It a birth mark."
I am sorry,- but there Is only one
name that I know of for such a
blemish which Is present at birth
or appears . within a few weeks
after birth. The name for It is ne
vus.. There Is Just one objection to
the popular name of birth mark,
namely that It conveys the sugges
tion that the blemish Is somehow
due to some, unpleasant Impression
made upon the mother before the
child Is born. ''That suggestion Is
preposterous. The blemish, Is due
to anomalous development of the
skin and God only knows why this
happens.
The nevus may be a. mole that
is, a small protuberant spot, stain
or blemish, with or without coarse
hairs growing in It, or it may be a
mere port wine or claret stain in
the skin, or a warty mass, or a fatty
mass, or Just a purple blemish filled
with veins, or an abnormally pale
or white patch In the akin.
whichever name you prefer to give
it. nevus Is congenital (that Is.
present at birth) but not Inherited,
not an Indication of any "marking"
or maternal impression, not a taint.
not a eign of any deficiency or fault
pn the part of the parent or other
forebear, but Just a bit of bad luck
which may happen to any human
being and deserves the sympathy of
all human beings.
The kindest way to manifest your
sympathy for any such blemish or
anomaly or abnormality or peculiar
ity Is to Ignore It absolutely, to carry
on as though you have never noticed
It. Even If the victim Insists on
discussing It with you in any way,
then be aa sincere a liar as you can
and minimize the enormity of- the
blemish as much as you can. Above
all, never express sympathy to the
victim If you don't wish to earn, the
victim's lll-wlll or hatred. As a
our 46 atatea deal among them
selves, they ehould do It,
Other nations should, and prob
ablly will, make plana to meet i
widespread "closed market.1
To aay that one quarter of the
world'e population la represented at
Ottawa Is almost true, but less rav
portent than tt sounds.
The "on quarter" Includes three
hundred millions tn India, which, In
the first place cannot buy halt as
much aa the atate of New York,
alone, and In the second place, Is
engsged tn a Oandhl effort to boy'
cott British good.
The country, doubtless, will r
range with other fragment of chill
nation, outside of "the empire," to
carry on trade.
You might even hear from Wash
ington that we are planning to for
give Russia for choosing her own
kind of government, aa we chose
ours, some time back.
The question most Important to
the empire I this: "Can Oreat
Britain, not self-supporting, except
by export trnde, and not understand
Ing economical mass production In
machinery or steel, find In her do
mlnlona enough unselftshnesa to
make the 'buy British' campaign

Flat nevl, whether white or pig

skillful use of cosmetics. Dr. William

concealing patches of leukoderma

lchthyol should be added, drop by

10 to 60 drops of lchthyol will be
necessary.
