f Real News
Tut-lied away inconspicuously among the monotonous details of
the slayings and clashes in the Ruhr and the bulletins of a. prize-
lirrhlcr's convalesccnce the real news flashed over the Wires )3 that
the business of the United States is moving forward.
- l‘dll‘illt‘l‘illOl‘t", this onward and upward progress is the result,
F. not of inflation of prices, but of increased production, declares the
l'nilm'l Slates (‘hambcr of Commerce.
Not the least, remarkable of American phenomena is the re-
t-upcriil ivo faculty of the nation. Amid a world still suffering kccnly
from the devastation of war the United States has raised itself erect
from a period of grave depreSSion in very short order.
Notwithstanding the incessant law-making in \Vashington, the
business of this country is far less trammellcd by its politicians than
the less fortunate countries of Europe. Political issues in the United
States may seem to spread themselves over the front pages of the
newspapers but the ceaseless, intelligent enterprise of our manufac-
furm‘s ('nlllllilll‘tl with the incontrovertible fact that the American
workman has a greater productive power is, after all, news that
interests the man in the street. .
Napoleon ’s sneer that Britain was a nation of shop keepers,"
belonged to “other times, other manners.’ His dictum is a mean-
lllfjll‘ss absurdity in our time. Americans rejoice in the ever increas-
in: volume of the nation's industry and commerce because in them
is llllil'~Klllillll.\" welded the prosperity and wellvbcing of its people.

Victims Of The Unused ‘
"It just makes me sick to think of the attic and the cellar!”
'~low mung.- times have these immortal words been uttered at house-
How seldom does the housewife who utters them
'l‘llllll' that they are a confession of unintelligent slavery?
If an attic or a basement is any harder to clean thah a parlor
or a bedroom it is generally because it has been made a storehouse
for unused and unusable articles which should have been thrown
out, given away or sold as soon as they ceased to be an immediate
part of the household gear. ~
There are small keepsakes which do not come under this head-
ing. llut these, aside, even things which have been kept for their
associations will bear dispaassionate consideration as to what actual
Dm‘l’osc is served in keeping them. If they have been stowed away
from season to season awaiting possible use atsome vague future
time, what are they really giving to life? Are they not, in fact ‘
by the drudgery which their care involves, taking something preciou;
away? Could they not be put into use where they would make life
happier instead of more laborious?
‘ but :11]: 2:233:33: 11:01:15, it is not what they take out or life -
_ . . at makes them worth while. Most
women “ho dread cleaning the attic and the cellar are not the

Now is glad green country smiles, opulent and fair:
Floods that thundered madly down. raging through the lair},
Now are held and leashed by man. serving his command.
So a miracle appears.

Now there’s cotton. wheat and corn,

Here where lean coyotes howled, where'mesquitc had sprmd
Over league on barren league, thirsty. bleak and dead,
There are farms and villages. churches. homes and Schools,
All because the engineers learned to use their tools,
So a. miracle—a miracle appears.
And the driest land upon the hemispheres
Comes to blossom as the rose.
Growing everything that grows.
