It may not have been very poetical.

But it was a famous victory, none the less, richly sugges-j tive in possibilities.

But, why not? Even such material may be endowed with special fitness in time, when usage has sanctioned them. Surely ships were not always and everywhere christened with champagne. New times, new customs. There must be innovations, or the world would grow stale, and why not use, in such matters, some product having a distinct and demonstrable relation to the state or city that is honored in naming of the vessel? Grape juice unfermented, of course, might be used for California, cider for New York state, buttermilk for Illinois, loganberry juice for Oregon, clam juice, perhaps, L for Massachusetts; and so on down the list with gasoline! No nation has ever been card-catalogued, unless pos ' sibly the German nation. Senator France of Maryland fiiirnncna tn D.ifhpv n niorp poniurehensive nwans of facts : about the American people, singly and collectively, than forWes t Virginia, mineral water for Colorado and orange waTever collected even in the native home of "thorough- iUl ness." It is to be accomplished through the agency of the federal census due next year. And if Senator France's plan, already endorsed by the senate, is carried out, it will certainly be a memorable census, painful but instruc tive to everybody concerned. It is to be an elaborate survey of the man-power, woman-power and child-power of the nation, available hereafter for the purposes of industry, public health, military organization, etc., to a degree far beyond any thing possible under the old census, methods. Senator France says: , , ''If we are to abolish illiteracy, preventable injuries and diseases, unemployment and child labor, with all of their attendant ills we must know their extent and the agencies at hand for combatting them." The census legislation therefore calls for a card cata . logue recording the main facts about every individual's life history his birth, education health, employment, etc. and making provision for keping that record up-to-date. This will be an important step in the progressive or ganization of the American people. Its usefulness is be yond. It should lead to greater national unity and effi ciency and an elimination of many evils which public au thorities have hitherto been unable to deal with adequate ly because of lack of dependable data. It should prove especially valuable in case of another national emergency Kke the recent war. And big crisis calling for- prompt, concerted action would find the nation's human resources organized and ready for mobilzation. vatehed to see the ontrip'1'ar come out Kut what do vou thm't!

'Yen, something like I hat happen- The railroad brotherhood leaders in testifying be fore the congressional committe considering the Plumb bill for soviet control of the railroads continue to repeat that "something must be done for the railroad man." Well, hasn't a whole lot been done for the railroad man? He is better paid and works shorter hours than he ever did before, and is able to live better as well as any self-respecting man' ought to live. " Few of the smaller businessmen , who have capital invested, make net returns equal to railroad, man's wage and he has no money invested. The business man also works longer and harder to make, his business a success. What the bolshevik leaders of the railroads are really asking is that the property be turned over to them and that the public pay the bills for railroad operation no matter how inefficient or extravagant it may be. Good treatment seems to have turned the heads of these men and they would overturn the government which has given them just recognition in all respects, while the public has uncomplainingly paid the bills that higher wages and shorter hours entailed. The first direct commercial dispatch from the United States to the Germans was an offer to sell them malt bar ley. "Who says the Yankee tradesman don't know what, when and how to sell?" asks the Boston Transcript. The suggestion of the London Times that two dif ferent parliaments be given Ireland, one for Ulster and the other for the rest of Ireland, certainly carries the principle of self-determination to the limit. RIPPLING RHYMES By Walt Mason THIS GOOD WORLD. This world is good in which we dwell; I like the blamed thing mighty well, and I have lived here long; as down my long life path I go I find eight joys for every woe, nine rights for every wrong. Oh, now and then there comes a day when everything seems grim and gay, and badly out of plumb; but calm reflection brings me bliss for every rotten day like this, six happy. days will come. The optimist is one who knows that joys outnumber human woes, when balances arc struck; and so, with sun hhine in his heart, he labors in the busy mart, and nails the useful buck. He dues not worry o'er the grief that comes to him as a relief when happiness grows stale; no man could stand unchanging bliss; a slice of grief wc soon would miss, if there were none for sale. The pessim ist is one who'll mark a record of each day that's dark, its minutes and its hours; and he'll forget the cheerful days, when all the landscape is ablaze with sunshine and with flowers. He thinks that there are nineteen woes for every joy a mortal knows, in which he's sadly wrong; I know the good outweighs the ill, and knowledge should my counsels i ill, for I have lived here long. This price-raising, wage-raising business is simply a competitive game. Too bad nobody can suggest a way by which it may be called off. When the present congress gets through investigat ing it will probably be shown that the report that we took any part in the war, to say nothing of winning it, was all a false alarm. Since the financial experts tell us that money is so cheap, it's a pity we can't eat it.- A proper reduction in the cost of building material would start a needed era of house-building in Salem.
