SMILE BUT GO EASY
fReed Heustis, in Los Angeles Herald
These poets make me peevish who are harping all the while
On what it means to give the world the sunshine of your smile.
It gets me kind of wrathy when I read that every day
You ought to go 'round smiling. How do poets get that way?
Oh, yes, I know a smile iiktime is worth a lot of things,
But then again a smile may stake you to a set of wings.
I know a man just married to a blushing little dame
And she encountered some one who was on the smiling game.
He smiled at her and when she failed to make a quick reply
He pulled a grinning encore and, ker-biff ! from out the sky
That husband fell upon the man and beat him to and fro,
He beat him every place that there was any room to go.
Which only goes to prove that smiles are all Okeh, but that
Before you smile, make sure, oh boy, of whom you're smiling at.

THE CALIFORNIA WAY
:::tt.
::::::
a-
The Californian has a funny -way of doing business. When his
crops are short Nevada is free from weevil and eel worm. First the
spuds were infected when California had an abundant erop and the
Nevada product was banned from the coast trade. Then a short
year came and it was found that the Silver State tuber was perfectly
free from disease, and the spud growers asked and received their
price.
A short year in hay crop and Nevada alfalfa was welcome on
the other side, and train loads were shipped and paid for and there
was no evidence of weevil.
This season there is a bumper erop of hay in California and the
hay farmers will have to keep the Nevada product from the market
in order to maintain a high price. "When this was discovered it was
also found that Nevada hay was infected with weevil. ,
The proposition to place an embargo on all Nevada hay is in
line with past records from the selling associations of California. If
it isn't hay its spuds, and if Nevada had any other product that com
peted with the Californian a scale bug or a borer would be found to
exclude the competition. It is the organized way of California.

The senate finance committee iu reviewing the recommendations
of Secretary Mellon, declaring for an excess tax on automobiles, on
bank checks and a higher rate of postage, emphatically tells Mr.
Mellon he must look to other sources. There is method in the recom-
medation.
The autoist is taxed by Rockefeller first, then by his state, coun
ty and city, and in some instances a double tax on his gasoline.
Therefore, with several million auto drivers protesting, this propsed
tax did not look encouraging.
As to the tax on bank checks, that also was everybody's busi
ness, and as more people write checks than own autos a multiple
protest could be expected.
As for '.I cent postage; the people again would complain. Only
during the war-time with its necessities can such a tax on the whole
people be expected or accepted.
A year ahead another election is in sight. Thai means control
of senate and house of representatives. With an outstanding tax
that is decried from every housetop figuring against ihe party there
would be small chance to win. If any party or individual really
wishes to get the temper of the public let it add costs m dollars and
cents.
With this in view, and the questions of the effect of the high
wall tariff confronting the Republican majority, it is little wonder
that Mr. Mellon was told to sit down and trim his expectations.
From a Democratic point of view the taxes can't go too high,
as it is a self-evident argument of Republican mismanagement, but
the old boys at the helm are even wiser than they look and before
congress hoists prices further on the people they will have to be
shown that it does not deflect votes that will be needed a year hence.

MEN AND BUSINESS
Richard Spillane, in Philadelphia Public Ledger
The foremost railroad executive in America had a visitor a
woman. "I'm worried," said the lady, "and I have come to you for
advice. Some mortgages I hold are about to be paid off and I do not
know how to reinvest the money. Naturally I want as large an in
terest return as possible. You know, I have about enough income to
maintain myself and the children under normal conditions and not
much beyond that. Everything has advanced so much in cost in the
last few years that I need more now than formerly. Besides, the
children are growing up and the items of clothes and education are
increasing for them. You have so much knowledge of what is a fine
investment, you know so many securities that bring large returns
that I want your advice. What shall I do?
"Buy Liberty bonds," replied the great railroad chief.
"But " exclaimed the lady.
"There is no but about it," the railroad executive said, "you
have come to me for advice. You would pay a poor compliment to
me if, after asking my advice and getting it, you did not follow it
Your husband was one of my dearest friends. I am telling you what
you should do. I know you expected me to suggest investment in
some of our securities. They are good, very good. But I tell you to
buy Liberty bonds.
"Don't argue with me about 44 per cent interest. Don't tell
me they sell below par. The more they go below par the greater the
advantage to investors such as yourself. They are the safest invest
ment in the world. Some of them yield at present prices in excess of
fV- per cent and, when you consider that they are tax-exempt, the re
turn is considerably more than that of 5VL per cent bonds of rail
roads or industrials."
"But bxz per cent seems so little compared with 7 per cent and
even more from other bonds I hear about which I am told are as safe
as anything on earth," the lady protested.
"Leave those bonds to other persons," the railroad executive
said. "Do as I tell you. Put your money in Liberty bonds. Buy
those of long term, preferably. Don't bother after you buy them
about the price at which they may be quoted in the market. You will
get the same amount in semi-annual interest regardless of the market
quotation.
"Now run along and leave me to my work. Nobody in America
can give better advice to you than you have received.
"And now I will add something more, just to make you feel a
little better and to appeal to the speculation instinct which, I be
lieve, every daughter of Eve has to some degree. I believe if you and
I live ten years we will see every Liberty bond that you buy now sell
well above par.
"No matter what happens in the future, whether we have unex-

security back of those obligations.
"Some years hence we will marvel at the bargains presented to
us today in Liberty bonds. Hut for the .fact that the times are un
precedented, those bonds would sell way above par. Iy personal
opinion is that the7 never are likely to be much below the present
quotations. In tact, I think they are definitely but slowly climbing
toward par. The more the world progresses toward rehabilitation
the higher they will climb. Don't ever worry about them. Tiny them.
Have them registered. Get your interest regularly. Uncle Sam
never fails. Forget or try to forget about them so far as market
quotations are concerned, and by the time the children are getting
married they'll be above par. Then you may think about selling
them, but not till then."
