Lloyd George U ont, for the
time, and the British empire
will miss a man that has
ataerad the ship through most
difficult years. The Tory gen
tlemen think they no longer
need him. With new alliances
forming and new problems ris
ing, thay trill find themselves
mistaken. For him it means
needed rest No one in all
history haa carried a greater
load, or carried it better. For
Entfand, he won the war.
Woodrow Wilson is a man
without a vote. New Jersey
decides that he can no longer
vote there, as he does not live
there, and he has no vote in
Waahlngton.
It is annoying for him, but
his importance will call useful
attention to the disgraceful
fact that all living at the Na
tional Capital are political
pariahs. They live where they
ean actually see what sort of
government they have, and
?may not vote.
Every little boy knows how
great oaks from little acorns
grow. Biologists marvel at the
chance of a tiny cell into a
fuU-siaed elephant or whale.
But the growth of an IDEA is
infinitely more amazing. Even
a word, spoken for freedom, of
body or thought, may grow.into
a new civilization, upsetting
ancient empires and laws.
Edison in the greet General
Electric plant has seen his
ideas of long ago grown into
a new mechanical and indus
trial world.
In his youth he struggled to
get light from electricitv, run
ning through a resisting medi
um. At Schenectady he held in
his hands an Incandescent bulb
of 100,000 candle power. He
had worked with little magnets,
in many ways. There he saw
them powerful enough to lift
toas. *
But there was something even
more important in that electric
factory. That was 8teinmets,
a its head engineer, running for
