The Big Interests
One is sometimes tempted to wonder why those so-called old fashioned virtues—thrift, hard work, prudence and integrity, are so frequently sneered at nowadays and discounted as something that is out-moded and therefore, if not actually to be abhorred, at least something to be ashamed of.
Despite the fact that history, and particularly comparatively recent history, abounds with the names of men who from little or nothing have built up great industries, have risen to wealth or power, by the application of these virtues, plus ability and foresight, it would appear as if they were to be condemned, and the capitalistic “system” which in combination with & democratic form of government gives the poor boy an opportunity to rise

AT 83 SHE DEFIES RHEUMATISM
After Suffering Acute Pain
For Years Rheumatism first attacked this ; 01d lady in 1931, and gradually
spread from her arms to other parts of her body. Then she started to take Kruschen Salta, and now she sends the following letter in her own handwriting :—
“I have suffered from rheumatism since 1931, At first, I felt acute
in in both arms. I could not sleep ‘or pain. It grew worse, and gradu- ally crept down to the tips of my fin . Next it reached my knees and ankles, which made me quite helpless for a long period. A friend recommended me to take Kruschen Salts. I find they do me more good than any other medicine, liniment or ointment I ever used. This is my own writing, though I am in my 84th year.”—(Mra.) H.

becoming richer and the poor are becoming poorer,” pass for currency and are accepted by some as gospel.
It would almost seem as if some of the facts are forgotten; that, for instance, without capital labor could achieve nothing ¢f consequence; that the co-operative efforts of capital and labor have made the luxuries of yes- terday the necessities of to-day and that inevitably the luxuries of to-day will become the necessities of tomorrow and that nowhere in the world have these achievements approached the zenith as they have in the coun- tries of this continent where free rein has been given to individual effort under a democratic, capital-labor system to an extent as yet unrealized elsewhere in actual practice. ,
. . . .
Citing a number of illustrations of men who have risen to important posts in industry J. Lambert Payne writing in the Ottawa Journal refers, among many others, to Walter P. Chrysler, whose story is an extraordinary tribute to these old fashioned virtues, and the late John R. Booth, of Ottawa, and goes on to say:
“Instead of wealth being in the hands of a predatory few, as is often alleged, its diffusion is the salient fact of our time. As a matter of totality in Canada, it is literally in the hands of millions, ... There is not a trace of cohesion or co-operation among the capitalists (referring to allegations that the big interests combine to thwart the will of the people). Chrysler and Booth had to meet strenuous rivalry at every step in their progress; and for that reason, so patent to the judicial mind, we use a misleading word when speak of capitalism as ‘a system’, C
“Moreover,” as Mr. Payne points out, “the execration of capitalism in certain quarters ignores the fact that it has existed since organized society began, and,” he concludes, “will likely persist. Commerce is impossible without it.” :
And not in industry alone has capital, so far in the history of the world, been one of the two essential factors to civilized progress, but it is also an important element in agriculture. Every farmer is himself an illustration of the co-operative effect of capital and labor, for every farmer is both a capitalist and a laborer. Every man who purchases a half section of land and a line of implements and power to operate them becomes a capitalist and when, in addition to that, he hires a man to operate some of his ma- chinery he places himself in the category of a capitalist employer of labor,
And every farmer who has employed one or more men knows that there must be co-operation and accord between himself and his hired man if both, or either, are to attain maximum results,
. . . .
It has often been said that there is nothing new under the sun and that is true of efforts to decry capitalists and capitalism. The same has been raised during every depression which has struck industry on North American continent as was aptly pointed out, with examples, in a recent issue of a popular magazine.
If past history is to be regarded as a guide, it is probably fairly safe to assume that with the return of prosperity, the baiting of what ia re- garded as “the big interests” will disappear as people become more occu- pied with efforts to advance their own interests, provided that while they are doing so they are not unmindful of their obligations to others.
In the agricultural west which has been so hard hit recently and in those sections which are still facing the dire results of prolonged drought, the disappearance of ire at capital may be retarded, but the time will in all probability come when the rank and file will look back in retrospect and wonder what it was all about.

An Ultra-Modern School
A new school with the impressive lines of an ultra-modern factory has just been opened in Ilford, England, | with accommodation for 1,000 chil- dren between 6 and 11,
It is the Torbitt Elementary school and it took a year to build and cost nearly $200,000.
The school has two halls, a film- projection room and wireless equip- ment to accommodate a loud-speaker in each room. There is a tiny tots’ department, complete with rocking horse, helter-skelter and fairy cycle.
A special subway is being built to enable children to pass safely from, the south to the north side of the arterial road. The subway will admit directly into the school grounds. Ramps have been provided instead of steps to facilitate the passage of perambulators.
All the class masters in the schoo] are university graduates.

Woman Lives In Tree
Old French Villager Has Home In- side The Trunk
The old woman who lived in a shoe might be a fairy tale but near Rodez, France, there has been found a wo- man who lives in a tree. Her home is built inside the trunk. Meagsur- ing almost 54 feet in circumference at its base, the tree has been rotted at its centre. The space inside has permitted the old villager to install bed, stove and chairs, with her kitch- en utensils nailed to the inside of the trunk. The tree is a European species called tilleul and its dried leaves and flowers, with a lemon flavor, are an ancient medicinal herb when dissolved into “‘tilleul tea” The old woman hag left the upper stories of her home to the birds.

CHAPTER II
Continued
Mrs. Wyncoop manpeuvred her mink-mantled form into the path of | the social leader.
“How do you do, Mrs. Phelps ?”| cooed Mrs. Wyncoop. “I'm Mrs.| Wyncoop. We met at the Juvenile) Delinquents Conference in Dubuque| last year.”
From her Olympian height Mrs, Phelps regarded Mrs, Wyncoop very | much as if the latter lady were a juvenile delinquent herself.
“But of course,” said Mrs, Phelps.
“May I present my husband, Mr. Wyncoop?” petitioned Mrs. Wyn- Hop. :
Mr. Wyncoop put out a hand like five frankfurters attached to a chop.
“Glad to know you," he boomed, “Have a weenie?”
Mrs. Phelps took the hand but de- clined the offer,
“And may I also present my son, Master Mervin?” said Mrs. Wyn-
“How do you do?” said Mrs. Phelps.
Master Mervin did not tell her how he did, for his mouth was full of sausage, and a disquieting sensa- tion was stirring beneath his but- tons. He favored Mrs. Phelps with a surly, frog-eyed look. |
“Aren't going to say ‘how do you do’ t6 Mrs. Phelps, dear?” said) Mrs. Wyncoup, sweetly, as, unseen) by Mrs, Phelps, sbe gave her off- spring a sharp prod in the spot) where he bulged most. That it is un-| wise to ppéd a bulging boy was in-
stantly and graphically demon- strated. After Master Mervin had been
borne away, green and limp, but less bulgy, the judges went into confer- ence. The Congressman, his profes- sional eye caught by the lavish ex- penditure of money on the weenie show, and not unmindful of the’ con- gressional precept that it is as easy to be a friend of a rich man as an enemy, declared himself in favor of awarding the prize to the Wyncoop entry. The Mayor, whose feet were tired, saw no reason, he stated, for prolonged debate, and expressed his willingness to agree with his honor- able colleague, the gentleman from Council Bluffs. But Clara-Martha Phelps cleared her long throat and voiced a polite but emphatic dissent,
“Gentlemen,” said Mrs. Phelps, “my artistic conscience will not per- mit me to vote for this exhibit.”
“Will the lady from Des Moines kindly state her objections?” said the Congressman in his best rostrum manner.
“It's that horse,” said Mrs, Phelps.
“That dreadful horse! It strikes a dissonance.” She saw that the Congressman
looked puzzled, and went on-—
“A false note. That the machine | is interesting and educational, I do. not deny, but I do question the good) taste of that horse. I cannot, gen-| tlemen, see eye to eye with you.” |
The Congressman went into con- ference with himself.
What he thought was, “That siuck-up bean-pole couldn't see eye) to eye with anything but a stilt-| walker. But she's got a lot of in- fluence among the women voters. I can't afford to have that ostrich!

"I bow to the taste of the lady from Des Mdines.” The Mayor, who wanted to get home and take his shoes off, said)
that he saw Mrs. Phelps's po’nt, but | observed that they must give the prize to somebody | “I thought that exhibit of the fauna of Iowa not without cultural | value,” said Mrs. Phelps | “Becond the motion,’ said the Congressman “Motion carried,” said the Mayor Ernest Bingley was sitting in his corner, among his array of weasels and chickadees, as silent and spirit | less as if he were one of them.

He was sitting there, birds to the right of him, birds to the left of him, animals behjnd him, speculating on| man's inhumanity to man, when the tro of arbiters swam into his ken. | The Mayor, as spokesman, in a’ speech cut short because of his ach- ing arches, presented Ernest with a blue ribbon and a check. Ernest shyly studied his own shoestrings during this ceremony. He had pre- pared and rehearsed a_ gracious speech in the wildly improbable event that he should win, but before he could regain control of his facul- ties and make it, the judges had de- parted. ‘ He was still standing there, check in one hand, blue ribbon in the other, in a happy daze, when the Wyncoops, including a wan and hollow Mervin, passed his booth. The sultan of sausagedom and his mate looked as pleased as a pair of picnickers who have found ants in their pie. Ernest waited for congratulatory words but
received only wintry stares. He felt,| ?
for he was like that, that he had wronged them in winning and that he should apologize for his victory. But before he could utter any con- trite words, the cavalcade of bitter Wyncoops had*swept by, leaving the temperature lowered by thirty de- grees.
That night, while the final fire- works display was emblazoning the lineaments of Uncle Sam on the Towa sky in flares of red, white and blue, Ernest stowed his menagerie aboard the ramshackle hired truck, and sent it stuttering through the night toward Bear Falls. As his chariot wheezed and rattled along the highway he sang to the stars a little song which welled from a full and happy heart. Again and again he sang it. The tune was never twice the same but the words did not vary. They went,
“What ho for Merrie England,
What ho, what ho, what ho!
What ho for Merrie England,
What HO!”
During a lull in the boot business next afternoon, Mr. Slocum entered the studio to extend his felicitations to the triumphant taxidermist.
“Atta boy, Ernie,” said Mr. Slocum. “I'm tickled pink you won.” :
“Thanks a million, Mr, Slocum,” said Ernest.
“I can’t think when I've been so tickled,” said Mr. Slocum.
Ermest Bingley was engaged in taking shirts from the chest of) drawers and examining them fo holes and other defects.
“Just saw Armina Wyncoop com- ing out of Munn's drug store,” said Mr. Slocum. “She had the young weenie with her and he had an ice cream cone in each hand and the remains of a third on his puss. I chirped, “Howdy, Armina. How did) you enjoy the fair?” Well, sir, she handed me a look that would have skinned a rattlesnake, and slammed the door of her sedan right in my face. She was wearing a pair of) short vamp, two tone, gray suede pumps that must have cost fifteen dollars in Chicago. I hope,” added Mr. Slocum, “they were pinching the merry hell out of her.”
"I'm afraid the Wyncoops are soype
OH, YOu WOULDN'T! YOu NEVER. SHOW ME ANY CONSIDERATION! You KNOW 1 NEED REST! I HAVEN'T
BEEN SLEEPING WELL 0o *CARE?
“No,” replied Ernest. “I'm gong away.”
“Business?”
“No.”
“Well, I guess you got a little vacation coming to you,” said Mr, Slocum. “Only if I was in
on the ad you got winning that rize,””

“Nearly three hundred dollars, counting the prize I won,” answered Ernest.
“Looks like you'll have to swim one way,” remarked Mr, Slocum.
Ernest laughed,

“Lucy Bingley,” Ernest told him.

“Sort of.”
“Let me have a look at her.”
Ernest handed him a small minia- ture painted on ivory. It showed a fresh-cheeked girl, with round, inno- cent eyes.
“Mighty pretty,” commented Mr. Slocum. “Where does she live?”
“Heaven, I guess,” said Ernest. “She's been an angel for more than a hundred years.”
“No fooling?” exclaimed Mr.. Slo- cum,

And so they are taking the only possible way out—they are parting with priceless family heirlooms, brought with them as a tangible memory of home. Some of these students belong to the oldest, noblest families in China. British friends are helping them to dispose of their treasures by displaying a certain number and asking connoisseurs to “private views.”
Miss Jessica Borthwick tells of a jade vase of the Ming period (about 1540) to which she is acting caretaker.
“This is wery rare because it is hollow,” she explains, “Jade is very seldom hollowed out-—chiefly because it is so hard—only the Chinese have the secret of carving it, Old jade is harder than a diamond.” ‘
Miss Borthwick, who is an author- ity on art as well as on puppets (she is the moving power of the “Curved Mirror’ puppet theatre), also shows a bamboo, paper-thin, ex- quisitely carved, in relief.
