“Discover America”
Everv American his own Colum-

the National Motorists' Assocta-
tion in its new slogan, “Discover
America.” The association pro-
poses to “sell America to Ameri-
" through more convenient
cans
and profitable and less costly
traveling.
“See America First” was good,
but in some ways the new cry is
better. Many a man or woman
has seen this great country with-
out really discovering it. or has
discovered but a little of it and
remained oblivious to the rest. as

“Discover” means “uncover."
and real discovery is a continuous
and endless process in the case of
a land so vast. populous and
varied in scenery and industry
and human interest.

up and down in this blessed land,
and never see all of it or learn to
know its inmost soul.

A Decaying Sport
The long
squabble over the
$300 000 guarantee for the Demp—
sey-(libbons fight was an evidence
of the decay of professional pugil-
ism. That, squabble disgusted
thousands 0f people who love tlle
“manly art” in itself but object
to its commercialization.
In the days of Sullivan and Cor-
bctt it was the championship that
counted. in and for itself. (Sham-
pions fought mainly for the hon-
or of staying at the top and keep-
ing the “belt.” They liked the
prosperity that came with such
eminence, but the title itself was
the main thing.
That spirit has gone. and with
its passing has departed from
pugilism the one thing that helped
most to redeem its inevitable bru-
tality.
It is money. not honor. that is
in question now. A championship
is held and worked as a gold mine.
Promotion is absurdly overdone.
No boxing match is worth $300.-
000. It was the $300,000 cash
guarantee that figured through
out that sordid controversy in
Montana. rather than the match-
ing of skill and strength by the
combatants, and the winning of
the best man. The personalities
of the contestants were ignored.
'l'hn glamor was rubbed off.
Popular sympathy naturally flow-
ed to Shelby and Great Falls, in
their almost hopeless efforts to
raise the fortune demanded by the
Champion's promoter.
It may be a good thing. Boxing
was never so important a factor
in human affairs as millions of
people have seemed to think. Its
unimportance becomes more evi-
dent as it degeneratcs from a
sport to an industry. The pro-
fessionals who lose in the process
have themselves to thank 'for it.

An interesting father is ‘discovered
in Boston. He has never earned more
than $12 a. week. On this small wage
he and his hard working wife have
raised and educated nine children.
Father can sit back on his cars now.
for all nine are working and their
combined incomes total $360 a. week.
This doesn‘t put them in the mil-
lionaire class. not by a long shot. But
if ever a man made a real success of
life. it's this Boston father. There are
millions like him—hard pluggers den.
ying themselves to give their children
“a better chance." They are the back-
bone of America, though they never

RENT
Smallest shoestore in the world. ca-

ing opened in Chicago by Sam Levine.
The store is 20 by 8 feet. Sam has
taken a lease until 1929 and his year-
ly rent will be $37.50 for each square
foot of floor space.
Move the building out into a desert
and the whole store wouldn't be worth
$37.50 a century. The rental value is
individually owned. but it is communi-
ty created—by the activities of the
people who swarm in the neighbor-
hood. The community some day will
claim its far share of this value which
it creates.

PLENTY OF COAL
(New lluvcn Times-Leader)
The Coal Trade Journal of Pitts-
burgh says there is coal enough In
this country to last 6.033 years. at
the present rate of consumption.
The demand for coal in this coun-
try increased between 200 and 600
per cent. from 1820 to 1910. yet. in
the decade from 1910 to 1920 con-
sumption increased only 20 per
cent. '
There is coal enough for all—
there are plenty of miners—yet coal
is scarce and many people are un-
able to buy all they need for home
use at any price and the rates we
are all forced to pay are far above
what is reasonable and right.
Congress has the power to end the
reign of the coal barons and place
{the coal supply within reach of
the coal trust before the cold days
of another winter are upon us.
80813st FOR A PURPOSE
(Greenwich News and Graphic)
The widespread vogue and expand-
ing popularity of the Bald-Head club
of America. especially since the mo-
vies are spreading its fame and its
shining domes to every corner of this
broad land of ours. has tended to
revive the agitation for the organiza-
tion of a. "woman's-auxiliary." to ad-
mit the ladies in the first and second
degrees. The original objection to
this proposition was. that while many
ladies are qualified for full member-
ship. they not only refuse to admit it.
but religiously camouflage their eligi-
bility with arts and artifices that are
not only familiar but becoming.
The intimation is beingw- « ed.

AMERICAN “OMEN \‘i’RI’I'ERS
(New York Evening Post)
“‘omen in different years have
previously won the Pulitzer prizes for
both the best novel and the best book
of poetry.
The award to Sara Teasdale for her
“Love Songs" In 1918 and to Mrs.
“'harton for her "Age of Innocence"
in 1921 was largely anticipated by
public opinion. But this year two we-
men carry off these prizes simultane-
ously—Miss Cathcr for “One of Ours"
and Miss )llllay for three of [or slen-
der volumes.
The play which receives the award
being upon an altogether inferior
plane. our women writers may claim
to have swept the board so far as
imaginative production goes. and
this although Columbia I'niversih~
did not see fit to place a. single
woman on any of the juries.
It is n well-earned testimonial to
the place they occupy in our literary
lire. “‘e are sometimes told that
lloath Tarkington is the dcan of
American letters. lzut Mrs. “'hnrton
has at least an equal claim to the
place.
The promise of none of our young-
er writers is exceeded by that of Zona
Gale. Miss Cuther. Dorothy Canficld
and a considerable group or other we.
men. Next year and year after they
will be pressing the masculine novel-
ist and poets hard for first place in
the selling lists and first place in criti-
cal esteem.

THE PASSING OF A TREE
.A. use old tree. now in the way.
Is being taken down today.
A gang of men attacks its crest
Where once the robin built its nest.
And those great priestly arms which
bloat
The worshipers who came to rest.
Now (all and lie beside the road
To make a common truckman'e load.
For years that friendly tree has stood
The glory of the neighborhood.
And it has heard the tramc's roar
Each day grow nearer than before.
And seen its brother trees go down
Before the builders of the town.
Surely that fine old elm has known
It must make room for steel and
stone!
And now the axe is at its trunk.

Its leafy arms in sorrow sunk.
Its roots. which long have loved the
earth.
Are marked by
girth.
The builders wait. Nearby is seen
A greedy. pltiless machine.
Ready to chew great holes where
stood
A friendly tree. so have. so good.
grim destruction's
I know not what these men shall
build.
What room with Joy and laughter
filled.
What towers of beauty shall arise
Beneath this space of sunny skies;
Perhaps a temple shall be reared
Where God is loved and God is feared.
But nothing man can build shall be
So lovely as this fine old tree.
