Co-operative Rearing of Children a Menace
to Civilization
By ALEXANDER W. SAMUEL, English Publicist
CIVILIZATION will perish if this absurj intellectual conceit in the
shape of careers for women continues to increase at the eyponsc
of the family. I refer particularly to the theory which is being
propounded by manv of the prominent feminists of the day—THAT
OF BRINGING UP CHILDREN CO-O P '?•' R A TIV ELY, PUTTING
THEM IN A LARGE APARTMENT HOUSE WITH TRAINED
NURSES WHILE THF MOTHERS ARE OUT DOING OTHER
THINGS.
The most important work any woman can possibly perform is to
care for her children. But if a woman prefers being a master mechanic
to being a mother all I can say is that it's better for her, for socicty and
for her children—especially for the children—that she shouldn't mother
them.
8HE IS LIKE the CUCKOO. SHE SAYS TO HERSELF, "IF I MUST
HAVE CHILDREN, AT LEAST I SHALL SEE TO IT THAT SOME ONE
ELSE HAS THE JOB OF BRINGING THEM UP."
As a matter of fact, I wait with hardly restrained impatience foT
those children to grow up. 1 want to congratulate them on having es
caped such maternal influence.
A Village Tale
By M. QUAD
Copyrlgtit. 1S1&, by the McClure
Newspaper Syndicate
It was when Uncle Ebenezer David
■on was postmaster at Hopeville that
Silas Thompson and Ben Coodheurl
met at the postofflce one evening, anil
as they sat around and whittled :<nd
waited for the mall to come lu Silas
lazily queried:
"Eben, you've beeu to Cat illli a
hundred times, I reckon, and jest how
far do you call it from Hopeville?"
"Jest as far as It is." answered Kbon
after thinking for about three minutes.
"And that's ten miles?"
"Who said it was?"
"I say so. I carried tiie mail on that
road fur three long years, and 1 reck
on 1 know the dlstauce putty well. I
asked you because some one said you
call it only nine and a half utiles."
"And that's what I'm savin' this
mlntt. It's nine miles ami a half to an
Inch."
"Say, Eben. didn't you measure it
with a purty short tapeline?" asked
811as aa he whittled away.
"It's Jest nine and a half." answered
Eben in a dogged way.
"It's exactly tea."
"Not an Inch over nine and a half"'
"Not an inch under ten miles!"
"Silas, are you crazy or a bom fool?"
asked Eben as his hair began to curl.
"I ain't a big nuff fool to call it nine
©lies f.nd a half to Cat llill!" yelled
8llas in reply.
They Jawed about it half an hour
longer, and they parted bad friends.
In the course of two or three days
Eben put up a sign reading. "Cat Llill
—Nine and a Half Miles," and as soon
as Silas beard of It he put up another
reading, "Cat HUl—Ten Miles." That
made things worse, and a half dozen
families were mixed up in the quarrel.
Almost erery night in the year the two
men mot at the postofflce. and. though
they wouldn't notice each other, they
had their ways of hurting each other's
feelings. Silas would look around to
Ezra BUllngs and giggle and chuckle
and say:
"Did you bear that Cat Hill had
moved inland a half u mile, Ezra? She
used to be ten miles from Hopeville.
but the moved up to nine and a half
to accommodate sartln smart folks."
Eben would be hurt and want to
get even, and he'd look at Jabez While
and say:
"Heard about that escaped lunatic,
Jabez? They say he's measurin' the
road from here to Cat Hill with a tow
■trlng and that It keeps him crazy be
cause he can't make but nine and a
half miles of It"
f The two men never came to blows,
but they never met- without trying to
hurt eacb other's feelings if one fa
vored anything the other opposed it
and they were contrary in politics, re
ligion and all public Improvements.
One day Eben got buried in his well
by a cave-In, and though Silas helped
to dig him out the chance was one to
■ay:
"Mebbe this narrow escape from
death will make bim turn to the truth
| In the future mid admit It's ten mllo?
to Cat Hill "
| It wasn't four weeks after that when
i Silas had a saw log roll over him, and
! as he lay there till flattened out Eben
I cnme up and looked on him and said:
1 "He seems to he a goner. hut if the
Lord lnjs him live It will be that be
I may take half a mile off the distance
, to fat Hill and save bis soul from per
I dition."
Folks thought Hie dispute might
wear itself out in a year or two, bat
It didn't It kept right on for twenty
long years mid never grew eold. Eben
would have gone to Indiana to live, but
] he didn't want to leave Silas behind to
j crow over him. and Silas would not
go to Syracuse to run n sawmill for
> the same reason. At length Eben lay
j on his dying bed. and just the minute
j the doctor told bini his case was hope
I less he sat up and said:
I "Then I want you to send for Silas
Tompkins. I've got soinethiug I want
j to soy to him before 1 die."
Silas didn't bang back about coming.
I and after he'd arrived and said he was
sorry Eben said to him:
"Silas, .tow fur U It to Cat Hill?"
"It's Jest ten miles. Eben. jest ten."
I "nut I'm h dyin" man."
"Yes. I know, but It's Jest ten miles."
I "It's only nine and a half. Silas, and
you are as big a fool as yon was twen
ty years ago!"
"Ten miles!"*
J "Xlne and a half!"
i Silas went 11 way. and Eben died.
| and a year later Silas was called to
go. When he realized it he said to his
i wife:
"Martha, don t let anybody bluff you
when I'm gone. It's ten miles to Cot
am. and you stick to it if yon have to
live on cold inters."
"I'll do it. Silas." she answered.
In a day or two he was dead and
bmled. and as the usual crowd met at
the postolliee in the eveuing the talk
was all about the two men and their
; lifelong dispute. Some said one was
I right, and some said the other. There
I was a stranger present, and by and by
be pricked up bis ears and asked:
"Was von folks tslkln' about the
distance to Cat IIillT"
"We was." says Moses Campbell, and
he goes on to explain about Eben and
Silas
"Why. they were both blamed
I Idiots!" says th- stranger when he had
| the facts in haiid. "I'm the man who
opened and sun eyed that road, and
It's jest i-xaetlj nine and three-quar

Profit Sharing May Establish an Era of
Abiding Industrial Peace
By CHAMP CLARK, Speaker of the National House of
Representatives
I
N one hundred and thirteen years our total wealth multiplied one hun
dred and twenty-five fold and is now rated at the enormous buci of
one hundred and forty billion dollars. This, if equally distributed,
would give one thousand three hundred and twelve dollars to every man,
woman and child between the two oceans. BUT THERE'S TFIE RUB,
FOR, WHILE A FEW ARE RICH BEYOND THE DREAM OF
AVARICE, MANY HAVE NOT THE WHEREWITHAL TO FEED
AND CLOTHE THEMSELVES.
The signs of the times indicate, however, that the hope of better
conditions is not too fantastic for entertainment. The new era began
when N. 0. Nelson of St. Louis originated the plan of sharing profits
with his employees. Other great concerns are establishing pension sys
tems for their employees which put to blush the liberal pension system
of the federal government for the soldiers of our various wars.
BLESSED BE THE NAME. I SAY, OF THE MAN WHO, WITHOUT RE
GARD TO POLITICS OR RELIGION, ESTABLISHES ABIDING PEACE BE
TWEEN LABOR AND CAPITAL. WHICH SHOULD BE FRIENDS AND
NOT ENEMIES.

PIONEER HILL PASSES
Juneau Dispatch: The bill provid

yrrson can be paid an allowance of
not to exceed $12 per mouth and

instead of going to the pioneers

It is proper and fitting that a
new territory should care for those
who have borne tha brunt cf the

their efforts alone is made possible
t: e many benefits which follow for
civilization. There was not a singls
dissenting vote in the house against
the measure.
