ENJOYABLE WORK
Producing play* i hard work. It means Iona hours, res-
ponsibility and nervous strain. Daid Belasco has been at it
steadily for 10 years—and he is keeping right on, at an a*re
when many a successful man wants to retire. lie told why.
at an anniversary dinner the other niyht, in words that ever)
American ought to read.
"1 believe that God made us to work," said Belasco.
"I believe lie meant that we should earn our living by the
sweat of our brows. But I believe that lie made us to love
our work so much that we might play at it—find real and
profound pleasure in it, and so labor on until, tired out, w<
might sleep like little, tired children at the end id' the day.
"People say to me, the doctors and my friends, 'You work
too hard.' I say 'No—1 play a little hard, perhaps—m>
work is m.v play. And it is such good sport that I love il
more and more.' The man who does not love his work. wh<
finds no pleasure in it, who cannot toil at it until he drops,
is a slave."
Alas! There is many a slave in America today, and
possibly among the yich just as much among the poor. N(
man, even in the old days of literal slavery, has even been ;
slave if he loved his work so that it was sport, not toil.
This love for and interest in what one is doing to eari
his livelihood is possibly- the biggest /factor in determining
the happihess of human beings. A man or woman in doing
the day-'s work can be happy in other things. The mood it
the thing that counts; it colors the whole life. And thi.-
enjoyment of one's work, with the prevalent mood of happ
iness and contentment that it creates, is something that can
be developed. So adaptable are human beings to this strange
world that, when they really put their attention on what they
are doing, they can find interest and pleasure in almost any
form of activity. It is only absence of occupation—boredom
—which is intolerable.
-O-
THE DOLLAR ABROAD
Europe needs good money, and America has plenty of
it. Therefore we need not grudge Europeans their grow-
ing fondness for the American dollar, when they come by it
honestly.
There is a noticeable tendency in the direction of making
this same dollar the standard of European values. Paris
shopkeepers are said to prefer dollars to their value in francs
in exchange of goods. In Poland, Czecho-Slovakia and some
other continental countries the framers are refusing to sell
their products unless they are paid in American dollars.
American travelers going abroad needs hardly take the
trouble to change their dollars into the money of any country
they are going to visit, except for convenience in making change
or paying small bills. For hotel bills, railroad fare and
any important purchases, they can count with fair assurance
on having their own money welcomed at its full exchange
value. <* « J*f01 if ifllftttfl
This popularity of the dollar is said to be helping out
European finance considerably already, and if it continues
it may render unnecessary some of the ambitious plans
formed to improve foreign currency and stabilize exchange.
Such progress is naturally advantageous to this country as
well as Europe, because as Europe obtains sound money it in-
creases its power to buy American goods.
Europe ought to have the dollar, anyway, established as
its accepted standard of value and exchange. It is a more
scientific standard than any prevailing abroad, because it
represents so admirably the decimal system universally used
in ordinary computation, and simplifies all business figuring.

According to their military record, submarines are mur-
der craft. They are lurking highwaymen of the sea. We
were horrified during the war with the Ijrutal submarine
crimes. Now that the opportunity is here, would it not be
humane to abolish these vessels as assassins of war?—Sa-
pulpa Herald.
Evidently when a good many of the women in our lar-
ger cities meant by "equal rights" was the priviledge of wear-
ing • irks.
The principal draw-back to bootlegging is the freedom
of the seize.—Columbia (S. C.) Record.
