"Wherever women have offered organized re-

down. In New York City the women of a certain
progressive community run a cooperative cafeteria,
and another group operates apartments with rea-

is run on a cooperative basis.
“If women could only visualise the human side
of this sort of reform they would be quick to en-

biggest blow against poverty and crime—and what
could be more humanitarian than that""

OUR ANNIVERSARY.
•1 The Times today begins a new volumer Eighteen
years ago this day, May 14, 1907, the infant Wich-
its Daily Times made its appearance on the streets
lot Wichita Falls. A
The Daily Times was born of, a desirs to help
"Wichita Falls grow and prosper and to serve its
people. Wichita Falls in 1907 was a town of per-
, “haps 5,000 population. They were determined to
“build here a city. .A 'daily newspaper was seen as
one of the niecas.” A group of progressive citizens
, asked the proprietors of the two weekly newspapers
to join in the publication of a daily. One of them
“accepted the invitation. That is how The Times
Publishing Company came to be organised.
‘ / The original authorised capital was $15,000. The
stock was non-assessable, the stockholders probably
i looking forward to time when this clause would
z protect them from such a contingency. The stock
has never been assessed. The capital stock of the
company has been increased to $75,000, almost
without cash outlay by the stockholders. No pay
day has ever been missed and no bill against the
company has gone unpaid. * Today the property
could not be bought for many times its capitaliza-
‘ton.
A single linotype and a flatbed press were the
principal mechanical equipment of the paper at the
start. Today eight typesetting machines, a high-
speed 20-page rotary press are only a part of the
large equipment necessary for the issuance of the
edition of the Times. Wichita Falls has grown
I from a town of 6,000 population to.a thriving city
of 60,000.
I ‘ It has been the rare privilege of those who or-
I ganized The Times Publishing Company and who
got out the first issue of The Daily Timesto have
continued with the paper through all these years
and to have seen it grow into a publication of large
circulation and high prestige. It has also been
1 their privilege to see Wichita Falls grow into the
1 fine city it is today and to know that the Times
I has contributed its share to that growth.
1 • , It is therefore with feelings of profound grati-
I tude and with a deep sense of responsibility that
I the Times today acknowledges many, expressions
I of congratulation and good will.
WOMEN AND LIVING COSTS.
Mrs. Edward P. Costigan, vice-president of the
National Consumers’ League and chairman of the
' living costs committee of the National League of
Woman Voters, is trying to- rally women to a
greater interest in the economics of the home. Mrs.
Costigan believes that women could do much good
for their communities if they studied less Browning
and drama and set out to investigate local market
conditions.
Whether the study of - Browning and drama
needs any lessening, which would be a mooted ques-
tion, we imagine, it would surely be possible for
the women to “do these things and the others also.”
so that neither the refining and educating influence
of the study, nor the practical benefit of the home
economic effort, would be lost Women are cer-
tainly the power behind the throne—as the kitchen
buyers of the world—in the setting of market
prices, to a great extent Organization might teach
them the use of a powerful and formidable weapon.
Mrs. Costigan thinks that it is “essenially a
feminine inclination to be picturesque Instead of
practical,” and that this little foible inures to the
—advantage of the shopkeeper and the disadvantage
of the husband, or wage earner.
“Their inherent dramatic Instinct makes women
quick to respond to the emotional appeal,” she
1 , cays; “They love to help the poor, relieve the sick,
’ stroke the fevered brow, and reform criminals, but
- they find little interest in practical issues like in-
vestigating the prices of bread and eggs.”—Which
is probably a pretty sweeping and not altogether
accurate statement, as women have organized in
groups of varying strength all over the east, and
somewhat in the west, to combat kitchen profiteer,
ing. The famous “Housewives League" of New
York, which took its foot in its hand and applied
the screws of the boycott, even against the law, is
* wall known example of women’s interest in such
practical things. However, Mrs. Costigan probably
deals with the general sentiment and activity among
women, which has not yet found its principal out-
let in the more practical things of organization,
perhaps.
“Women should learn the conditions in their own
communities,” she goes on very reasonably to ar-

OTHER PEOPLE’S TROUBLES.
Seems like she's never had a day
Which she could give to rest and play,
In all the years we’ve shared this life
And plodded on as man and wife
I've never known the day to be
When she was wholly worry-free. .
We’ve had our share of hurt and woe
Which every married pair must know,
And that we’ve borne as best we could
Believing all God sends is good,
But when our patch of sky is fair
I’ve said a glad farewell to care.
Not *6 with Nall. Har heart's so large-
And other people's troubles make
A burden which she cannot okaka;
Day after day she hears them call
And does the worrying for them all.
T
But consider how recently it is that thess differ-
ences, or any close measurements of time, were im-gal
portent. Even a whole day did not count, in some
parts of the world. V
There are neighboring islands in ths South Seas a
which got their calendars, one from missionaries who
sailed west end the other from those who soiled east.
Consequently, when it is Sunday on one it is Monday
on the other. But nobody cared until ship captains
heman announcing the day of their arrival by wire- Menn
Now it to necessary to know whether a particu-
lar captain reckons his days by San Francisco or Melbourne dates.
Clocks and watches are coet,"three hundred years old, but those that
would really hasp Hit J came much >--———————-
later, and the scheduling of ' life
on the assumption that everybody
had the exact time is of almost
yesterday.
The watchmakers have made us
able to get a lot more of every-
thing Into the day__more, that is.
Of everything except thought, end
feeling, end human converse, and
life itself.
.4
I've scolded, just for this reply:
“We are so happy, you and I, ,
That we should be ashamed to live
And never help or never give;
I couldn't sleep at night and know
I had been called and didn’t go.”
And so I smile, for I have learned
From her that laughter must be earned,
That other people's troubles call
For help and pity from us all,
That none who truly loves can be
At peace with self and worry free.

Generation Well Equipped.
Did you see a big "boy’s day"
parade somewhere? If not, you
missed an inspiration. Just to see
thousanda of bright, upstanding
boys marching by is a cure for
the grumps, for pessimism, for
cynicism and disillusionment.
The world’s problems, or our per-
sonal problems, may be too much
for us. But It la not wa, it 'la
these boys, who will have them to
solve. And they will bring to them
en ever-fresh courage. We grow
old and tired, and youth cornea not
bach again; but the youth of the
rece Is continually renewed.
They will fling themselves at
this tough world, end will not find
out that It is too much for them
until thsy have alreday wrestled
mightily with It Then their places
will bs taken, in turn, by still un-
discouraged recruits. Esch under-
takes much and accomplishes little,
but bit by bit ths job gets dons.
It is well, than most of It can be
dons by the age that does not
count the cost. There Is no room
for discouragement in a world that
la always young. '
■till mors Inspiring: Those boys
are having a better chance than
any generation that ever lived be-
fore. Here comes the delegation
from a f
Not one in Id of the fathers of
those boys had a high school edu-
cation, and eoma of them had no
education. *
No ons before lived in a life
that was so educative outside of
school. None of their ancestors
had co good a physical chance, to
live Iqng and soundly. None had
such an opportunity to prepare for
life, and then so many things to
do in that life.
Hapry generation: Its tasks ars
to be the hardest and the meat
critical ever faced by any genera-
tion. But there was nsvsr a gen-
eration so well equipped to meet
them. -

Oas British rum baron, who had
invited popular subscriptions, an-
nounces failure. Only about one-
tenth of his goods had succeeded
in getting in, and the returns from

the cost of disposing of it.

ness. and ars concentrating on
trade with non-prohibition coun-

TODAY’S TALK
By GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS
BEAUTY.
1 never tire of talking beauty with anyone—any
phaae of it. 1
* One reason why 1 so much love the writings of
Lafeadio Hearn and W. H. Hudson to that they
, both strove for the expression of beauty. Neither
men cared for money or fame. Both, however,
Bought for recognition, and both died just as it be-
gan to come their way. '
A home cannot be made too beautiful. Neither
can an office. Neither can a city—nor anything.
I do not consider it a vain thing for women to drees
beautifully. The more beauty there is in this world
the more happiness there will be.
Beauty always gives forth charm.
How true this is of nature. What gorgeous col-
orings to the coats of the birds and the blossoms
of the flowers. Every day when I leave my office
for luncheon I pass a florist’s ehop, and I am at-
tracted to ita windows as to a magnet because of
its wondrous beauty. I used to think it wastful
to spend several dollars for an orchid. I do not
think so now—if you have the several dollars that
you can afford to spend that way.
Nothing to wasted' that sweeps the heart clean
with beauty.
I have a friend who once told me that his re-
ligion was the religion of beauty. I told him
promptly that his religion was mine.
We think about the thinga we love. And if we
love beauty in all its forms and manifestations,
we are bound to think bountiful thoughts and live
beautiful lives, no matter how much we have to con-
tend with. .
And there ia beauty enough for all! Every-
where.

, WASHINGTON . May 13.—I see
by the papers there's a little
anthrax In the country. New York
doctors report a human cass.
Webster says anthrax is “an In-
fectious and usually fatal disease
of animals, -especially cattle and
sheep, and occasionally of man."
Indeed. In come countries, where
health regulations are lax. human
cases are fairly common. Not here,
however. The only Americans I
know of who havs had it ars Coun-
selor Franklin Adams of tho Pan-
American Union and ms—unless you
count that New Yorker, and con-
sidering where he lives, he prob-
ably isn't an American anyway.
Adams and I occasionally get to-
gether to reminisce. Unlike those,
for instance, who have had their
appendices removed, we have no
large audience of other ex-victims
who, having boon through the same
thing, enjoy hearing our suffer-
ings.described. So we have to make
the moot of one another.
Adame had hie case in Chile. As
soon as he was able to travel, after
fooling the undertaker, he’ crossed
over to the Argentine side of the
Andes. Where I was living, only
recently, recovered from my case.
He wasn’t entirely well, byfany
means. .
His Miness had left him, tam-
prorarily, with ons trick I couldn't
perform myself. Under stress of
excitement or any emotion, like
anger, his scalp would putt up like
a balloon right before your'eyes.
It was weird. Then, as he cooled
off, gradually he'd deflate. i
Bet anthrax is too high a price
to pay even for auch an accom:
plishment. Nor was Adams proud
of It. One day somebody made a
remark that fretted him a good
deal. “Oh. I wish," he cried, "you
hadn't said that! Now,” his voice
rising to a wail,. "my head will
swell!" /
Abd-el-krim — he pronounces It
THE GARDNER. '
I gaze about me in the —dawn, and mutter,
"What's the use ?" Smith's cow is parked upon my
lawn, and Johnson’s hens, are loose. James Jimp-
son's seven Airedale pups have frolicked here and
there, and ruined all my buttercups, and filled me
with despair. And cats and geese and guinea fowls
have scratched and dug and clawed; and so my an-
guished spirit howls, with chaos thus abroad. My
rare verbenas all are torn, my cockleburs are dead,
and I can only dumbly mourn, with ashes on my
head. The men who own the geese and ewes, and
cats and crocodiles, and bandicoots and kangaroos,
will greet me soon with smiles. They all are pleas-
ant, friendly wights, who have no moral kink; they
would not trespass on my rights if they’d but stop
to think. All carelessly they let their swine, their
wombats and baboons infest this pleasant lot of
mine, and spoil my growing prunes. They would
not wilfully destroy a shrub or rhubard tree; it
doesn’t give them any joy to put a crimp in me.
They simply do’not give a thought tb others’ rights
or wrongs; their minds are on the battles fought .
amid the market’s throngs, 'The carelessness of
cheerful guys who have no dark design has brought
to countless human eyes all kinds of scalding brine.
Methinks I’d rather have' a foe who'd dump me
in the soup, than have a friend who works me woe,
and doesn't care a whoop..
