LEARN TO SHIFT FOKKS
As the time draws nearer for
Australian girls, the wives and
fiancees of American servicemen,
to take their place in American
homes, t.hey are more and more
eager to attend schools where
they will iearn how to adapt
themselves to life In thf United
States. Such a school has been or-
ganized by the United States
Wives ind Fiancees Association
with the Allied Relations Commit-
tee of the Department of Inform-
ation.
Along with American history,
and geography, these Australian
girls are learning American cus-
toms. Since tneir manner of eat-
ing differs from ours, these girls
will have to learn, among other
things, the right-handed use of
the fork.
One Australian student. 113 she
struggled with the new right-
handed method, said: "My hus-
band says I can eat Australian
't home and American wnen we're
out."

A DEFINITION
The power to choose
I do,
To grow and have the larger view,
To know and feel that I am free,
To stand erect, not bow the knee.
To be no chattel of the State,
To be the master of my fate,
To dare, to risk, to lose, to win.
To make my own career begin.
To serve the world in my own
way,
To gain in wisdom, day by day
With hope and rest to -limb, to
rise,
I call that Private Enterprise.

THE THINGS MONEY CAN'T
BUY
The late George Horase Lorimer,
for many years editor of the
Saturday Evening Post, once wrote
these words: "It is a good thing
to have money and the things
that money can buy, but it is
good, too, to check lip once in
awhile and mnke sure yo'.i haven't
lost the things that monev can't
buy."
The things that money can't buy
would make a lenj, list. Here are
some of them:
Money can't buy real friend-
ship—friendship must be earned.
Money can't buy a clear con-
science—square dealing is the price
tag.
Money can't buy the glow of
good her; 1th—right living is the
secret
Money can't buy happiness-
happiness is a mental condition
and one may be as happy in a
cottage as in a mansion.
Money can't buy sunsets, songs
of wild birds and the music of
the wind in the trees—these 2
as free as the air we breathe.
Money can't buy inward peacc
peace is the result of a construc-
tive philosophy of life.
Money can't buy good character
—good character is achieved
through decent habits of private
living and wholesome dealings in
cur open contact'.: with our fellow
men.
Continue the list yourself. You'll
agree that among the things mon-
ey can't buy are some of tha most
valuable treasures life has to
offer.

car as it wrs before parking
meters vere invented, ana in the
second place, you don't get an'
hour for a nickel. If you want to''
step inside a store for live minutes'
you are still out your nickel, and 1 ^
that is 00c an nour, and besides, 15
many cities have parking zones . 8
in which you r,rc anly al'owed
20 minutes, and I am told in
some cities only 10 minutes for
a nickel.
It has been estimated bv those
who' ought to Know that the
average cost to the motorist for'
parking his car on his own streets |
is about 25c an hour. And it is j
estimated that the b:g cit'es of
Texas are collecting at least $5,-
000.000 annually by this racket,1
for which the public receives not
one cent in value received
There is not a shadow of a
doubt but what three-fourths of
the motorists are against this
racket, and would welcome relief
at the hands of the Texas Legis-
lature. No matter whether you live
in a large city or in a small town
many miles from a city, the park-
ing meter racket gets you just
the same. If you ever drive your
car to a large city, you are taxed
by the racketeers, just the same!
as those who live there.
A bill was introduced in the pre-1
sent Legislature to outlaw this
racket., but the "Fixers" from Fort
Worth, Dallas, Houston, San An-
tonio and othre large cities went
to Austin, and the "fixer" from
Fort Worth, who is said to carry
at all times a pocket full of
blank signed checks on the city
of Fort Worth, returned home and
said he and others had -fixed"
the legislature, so there was no
danger of the anti-parking meter
bill getting anywhere.
So he must have been telling
the truth, as I see a House Com-
mittee voted to kill the bill so
the big city bosses and racketeers
could go on collecting $5,000,000 a
| year from Texas motorists for the
use of their own streets.

BY HOPE WHEELER
Someday perhaps the man who
owns and drives an automobile will
wake up and get mad at those
who keep him robbed of all his
small change as well as his fold-
ing money.
If there is a forgotten man' in
this country it is the one who
tries to carry on and be an A-
merican citizen by the aid of a
motor car. The tax-grabbers grab
him at every turn, but that Is
just the beginning. All of the
small time and big-time racketeers
are after him also
One of the most profitable rac-
kets yet invented is the parking
meter racket which has been a-
dopted by all the larger cities and
many of the smaller ones by which
motorist is made to deposit five
cents in a parking meter to enrich
a gang of the most artful graft-
ers in exlstanc-.
In the first place, the gadget
which collects the money Is the
product cf a monopoly by use of
the good old American Patent
racket, which collects from the
city at least five times as much
as the gadget costs to install.
The company manufacturing park-
ing meters has made mil.ions of
dollars within the past ten years
since they were adopted by big
i city racketeers.
In the second place, the cities
using them are collecting millions
of dollars annually because the
gullible motorist would rather de-
posit his nicktl every time he
wants to his car, th;,n to light
the case thru court. It Is agreed
by the best legal authority that
the meters, collecting f >es lor the
use of the public streets are illegal
and could not stand up If some-
body would take e test thru the
courts. But nobody will do that.

mer the can flat, after whfrh
