perfection and general efficiency

Among the recent innovations in
the producing world was thp fitting
out of a baggage car laborntoiy in
which cutting and assembling me

from California to New York
The car's equipment Included film-

room where the picture could bp

fast as they were wanted
- Experts' worked day and night d'-r-ing

ished picture was 10000 feet long
It had been cut from 325000 feet
Getting most of such work done in

garded it as necessary to mark time

THE LID AT THE HAIilK -
One th'ng is Bure about that inter-
national conference at The Hague If
if cannot succeed with newspaper
publicity it ceitainly cannot succed
wthout
The effort to prevent publicity
made by the conference at the Ihsti-
Ration of Foreign Minister Karne-
boek of Holland shows a curious
state of mind and one which would
not be expected of any modern diplo-
ma It is especially curious because
Karnebeek is president of the Lea-
gue of -Nat ions Assembly That As-
sembly is the "popular” branch of
an international organization whose
catdinal principle Is supposed to be
"open covenants openly arrived at”
nul full publicity for internaitonal
affairs
The Holland diplomat and some of
the delegates from o' her countries
blame ‘tiie failure of ‘the Genoa con-
ference on tile news corrspondenls
That too betrays a curious state of
mind In fact curious states of
mind appear to be characteristic of
professional diploma's When a
bunch of them act according to the
dictates of ordinary intelligence and
common sense it is usually urfder
the influence of some practical man
of affairs l’ke Lloyd George
It hardly needs to be pointed out
that hte failure of the
Even before we are born w are in-
debted beyond possibility of reim-
bursement fur Biistenanc ami affec-
tion As w come into the world
the sacrifice which gives us bplng
exceeds our whole ultimate capacity
of requital
So as the years pass along ever
the same through the colorful May
of merry youth and down to tho
gloomy white winter of second chlld-
hodo we accumulate multifarious de-
maniis cm our appreciation too nu-
merous to remember When at last
we venture alone helpless in the
dismal shadow leaving all wealth
and friends behind love lingers sad-
ly with us and softly opening the
heavy black curtains sends us on
the grent mysterious voyage with
th final unpaid and unpayable ob-
ligaton When we cons der all that we owe
to friend and stranger even to foe
for courtesy for aid for relief for
pleasure for success it-seems that
the most belief icient thanks that we
can give is in the thought and deed
of mrcyl These goods we can dis-
pense in the general impartially and
idscrimina ely ns manna which we
can share
The cost of living is represented
by consecutive charges against our
helplessness For we are dpendent
on one another almost evry hour in
ither a small need of a grpat one
No person is so powerful so strong
so rich as to be self-sufficient and
money is inadequate remuneration
for the kilnin' ses and assistance
which the gentle 'winds of human
generosity scatter on the pilgrimage
wav
It is because we arc so needy
weak and helpless that we have the
ingta'n of spiritual nobility While
it obligates each of us to others be-
yond our resources of grateful re-
turn i- similarly hinds them Our
vanity is our weakness our humility
our strength ' Charity thuj propa-
gates more charity and with it we

RAIL STRIKE?
Among business men the feeling
septos to be unanimous that if there
is to be a general strike of railroad
workrs the sooner it comes the
better They waited too long thpy
maintain for reduction of freight
rates -Had the raise been cut I
months ago the wage controversy'
would have been settled then J
Two 'serious strikes are pending I
One is thp coal mine workers the
other itho textile workprs They are
having the effect of retarding indus-
trial progress Business apparently
would have been normal thirty days
hack if these strikes had not check-
ed it as it has been improving stead-
ily since March
Business men have liquida'ed
their affairs and they can afford to
let matters drift Their one hope is
that strikes if strikes must cofhe
will all lake place right away so
Jbat the situation may clear up as
soon as possible

the si'uation with unusual frank-

were embarrassing in some cases
the truth is often embarrassing No
doubt it was sometimes impolitic

THE TRUE COST Op’ LIVING
Were we to take cognizance of the
successive obligations which we owe
to many persons from the cradle to
the grave We should'spend much of
life in showing gratitude by promis-
cuous charity Proud we may justly
be of good deeds performed but thp
heap of them could not compensate
fully for continuous favors received
Entering life bawling we rely
unwillingly unknowingly on others
to keep breath in our puny bodies
WHO OWNS THE AIR?
A conclusion having foundation I and with speedy and constant atten-
in law prvalls that the owner of aj tion save us from immediate death
