C., Feb. 10, 1027. , - *.c * \ THIS WEEK ! By Arthur Bri?b*nc ???? WWI 'i l Mr. Iir.sbane's editorial* are^pubJi-.hed as expression* of opinions of the world's highest-salaried editor and The (Chronicle does not , necessarily endorse all of his views and conclusions. If North ari'l South Arnci ,iu cannot , In-forr the rt.st of the world an j >.ample of peace and common .sense, .nn-thing ? wrong with North or! South Aoui.ca. This year the Latin R.-publm will -pern! $100,000,000 <level ping railroads, ami most of the mom > will he borrowed in the l/nlcd S'ate-> Chile is negotiating! a $ 10,000,(>t;(J loan in New York to ertrify the Chilean State Railways. Apparentl> tho-e South American republics have public officials sufficiently liniic.it and competent to manage state railways. The Lrnrn ;r:g of de.-.rable industrial enterprises in South America L> I'nited Stjites hanks is u useful ir .< ?.'.ment f<>r American money. Win r. Andrew Carnegie sold his mills to I'nited States Steel he would aceep*. < nl\ special boflds, wouldn't taki preferred stock as a gifN l.-ugluii at the common stock saying it wasn't even water, it was "air." Recent figures would surprise and probably annoy Mr. Carnegie's Scotch thrift. The Steel company in 1926 earned $199,004,741, enough to pay $17.96 a share on the common stock, a new record of peace-time prosperity i:i the steel business. Oiu billion dollars will be spent on new golf courses and clubhouses this year, including the cost of 1,000 new golf clubs starting and maintenance of old <lubs. If the nation could build a thousand new flying machines, one lor each new golf club, to protect the links and placid gentlemen playing on them, it would be a good thing. Dry raiders seize $25,000 worth of "blending" machinery used to manufacture benedictine, chartreuse, and other liquors. The "blending" has [been going on, full blast, for four months. Many an American has damaged hC mucous membrane, absorbing the product of that machinery. Governor Ritchie, of Maryland, himself widely discussed in connection with the Democratic presidential nomination, says Governor Smith, of New York, "is the outstanding Demo ernt in the United States." On the other hand, Mr. Milton, editor of lire Chattanooga News says William G. McAdoo is the only man for Democrats to nominate. Mr. Milton says Governor Smith cannot be t>< minaTed because "the country is seventy per cent dry, and no wet can be elected to the presidency." Governor Smith's friends say, "wait and see." John D. Rockefeller still has the New York Stock Exchange seat that "He bought Tn 188.'*, l'orty-tour years ago. He never uses it, keeps it perhaps to remind him of old days when he was making money for himself before he began spending his millions in Rockefeller Foundations, institutes, fighting disoase?for other people That seat, which probably cost Mr. Rockefeller less than $50,000 he could sell now for $180,000. If he holds it a little longer, it will be worth $200,000. Russian husbands and wives will be interested in their mail from now .on. For a divorce you simply notify the authorities that you warn it, then send word to your better half through the post office and that settles it. You are divorced. In China the thing is more serious. The natives hate strangers as cats hate dog>. They aie tired of watch1 c: foreigners spend money, having ourts and territory of their own, and .re glad when the time conies to murder a few. The murdering seems to be iluii at hand. Uncle Sam has some of his ships 'here, and unpleasant news may be ? \pectod. After the Roxei rebellion, when the ! .'.her nations compelled the Chinese ,o pay millions in damages, this na*:nn handed the money back. Rut that won't help our popularity. When Europe was in trouble, Uncle Srm sent an army of two million men, : iv e thousand million dollars, and other thousands of millions >ince. The words, "In God we trust," first appeared on United States coins in 18t>4, on a bronze two-cent piece. ? ' !. L.'J'JJ.Ui-'lJ.UI 11 Oh!. Oh! I am not sure whether this article points a moral, or whether it will enlighten anybody, or whether it will place additional power in the hands of ulit-ady almost invincible woman, Hut any Way, here goes. A young married woman appeared at the home of her mother in a "Tiigh!> disturbed state of mind. She threw l.viAC-If ai!,ruas her mother s bed j and l^gui. weep copiously. When r la r m tin-! solicit iou?ly inquired the] icani/M for the salt tcms, the daughter j sat up and declared dramatically that .-Mi was through with her husband, lie had become mixed up with another w.'dian; and she was through. Wheieupon, the mother, instead of registering honor, anger, or any other form of intense emotion, merely . aiili d enigmatically and observed: "In,n't get ? xi ited, child; that is | the nature of the beast. Thousands j of women have that condition to face, and tho>e who get along the best, fare it quietly and deal with it inteU ligently." The daughter. surprised at the matter of fact way in which her mother had received the strange and awful' new-, sat up. "You don't mean to tell me," she gasped, dashing away her tears, "that all men are like that! My father was never like that!" "No, my child," leplied her mother, "not all men are like that. There are some superb, sublime masculine creatures who are npt like that; but your father was ,like that. He had three such affairs before he got it out of his system. And I had to ] stand by him and pull him through. I "The average mule member of so-' cicty," continued the mother, "miiy have wonderful intelligence in many ways. He may be a remarkable statesman* a marvelous financier, a wonderfuj captain of industry, and yet be a perfect fool where women are concerned. He may be so astute, so far-sighted, so keen witted and j quick witted that the heads of big i business bow to him reverentially; j and yet some babv faced female mor- i on can tie him into a double bow knot ] before he knows it. i I "Most males are susceptible. You' husband evidently falls into thai classification. It is going to be <v| part of your 'until-death-us-do-part' job to grab .lack by the scruff of the j neck and save him two or three times,! just as 1 did your father, but you will find him well worth the saving, i I am sure, just as I did your father, j "There is another thing, my dear,"! went on the mother, "as a matter of j fact, a man never does quite so well as when his wife has something on him. Once he comes to the realization that he has made a fool of himself. and that she knows it and has stood by him in his foolishness, and held the fort although he deserted, he gets to eat out of her hand and jumps through. Never again, after such an ex{H?rience, can he go around her with his chest puffed out as a mighty lord of creation. Look around you, my dear! Look around you at the tracable, well-behaved, model husband, and you will find that in 99 cases out of 100 their wives have the goods on them in one way or an ; i_ i KERSHAW LODGE No. 29 j A. F. M.
