FOR HEALTH INSURANCE THAT PAYS
It is interesting to learn that the administration s com
mittee on economic security is perfecting a health insurance
plan which would enable the American public to pay its
doctor’s and hospitals’ bills in advance and get the best of
medical care.
With the co-operation of the presidents of the Ameri
can Medical Association and the American College of Sur
geons, the committee^ hopes to devise a scheme whereby
both the ordinary citizen and the\medical profession gener
ally will fare better than they do now.
In hard times, many citizens go without medical care
which they need very greatly. On the other hand, doctors
do an enormous amount of work for which they get paid
nothing at all. A program which would assure the patients
of service and the doctors of fees ought to be exceedingly
helpful.
A CONTRAST IN RELATIONSHIPS
“V American and Japanese statesmen exchange strongly
worded notes about naval limitations, and the naval staffs
of the countries hurry to perfect their plans for action in
case of war. Meanwhile, a Japanese freight steamer be
comes disabled in a mid-Atlantic or Pacific gale, and Ameri
can freight steamers or Coast Guard vessels rush to the res
cue, standing by in a blinding storm to save lives if the
Japanese ship should founder.
The contrast between the official relations which nations
maintain with each other and the relations which their pri
vate citizens maintain could hardly be more striking.
Japan is our potential enemy, and we are Japan’s po
tential enemy, so each of us must prepare for war. But
American sailors risk their lives to save Japanese sailors
from the sea, and Japanese sailors would do the same if
conditions were reversed.
Isn’t there some way we can translate this ready neigh
borliness into the field of international politics?
The first thing to learn in driving an automobile is how
to stop it. The same thing is true of an argument. fii
Common sense is just the knack of seeing things as they
are, and doing things as they ought to be done.

EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGNS NEEDED
..Frank Carrel, President of the Quebec (Canada) Chron
icle-Telegraph, says: “It seems to me that the depression
has caused more of our business men to dig deeper into the
administration of their own particular businesses.
“On the subject of newspaper advertising many author
ities have become convinced that more money has to be
spent in advertising appropriations in order to educate the
public on general business methods, ethics and expansion.
“Bankers must inform the public all afeout banking,
insurance men all about insurance and financiers all about
finance. Possessing a bank account, carrying an insurance
policy or buying and selling securities is only the crust of
these big developments in our commercial life.
“The expansion of business through educational cam
paigns is one of the bright spots in our trade revival and1
will be effective in aiding all other lines of commerce.”
THE SCHOOL OF EXPERIENCE
Perhaps the best education anyone gets is that compul
sory course in the School of Experience all of us take after
alma mater has shoved us out into the cold, crifel world
with a diploma and her blessing. To be able to make friends
with out circumstances, however uncongenial and hostile*
they appear to us, is a prime requisite in the fine art of liv
ing happily. Here are some admonitions we ran across*
somewhere that may help us to get a little more fun out
of life:
“Learn to like what doesn’t cost much.
“Learn to like reading, conversation, music. *
“Learn to like plain food, plain service, plain cooking.
“Learn to like fields, trees, woods, brooks, fishing, row
ing, swimming, hiking . . . all sports.
“Learn to live life for its own sake.
~ “Learn to like to be alive.
“Learn to like people, even though some of them may1
be as different from you as a Chinaman.
“Learn to like work and enjoy the satisfaction of doing
your job as well as it can be done.
“Learn to like the songs of birds, the companionship of
dogs, and the laughter and the gayety of children.
“Learn to like gardening, carpentering, puttering around
the house, the lawn, and the automobile.
“Learn to like the mystery of women. Learn to like
them for those ways and actions that are so different from
your own.
“Learn to keep your wants simple. Refuse to be owned
and anchored by things and opinions of others.
“Learn to discourage gossip and to refuse to listen to
criticism inspired by personal animosity.
“Learn to respect the opinions of more educated and
more experienced people.
“Learn to appreciate kindness and reward virtue.
“Learn to like the sunrise and sunset, the beating of
rain on the roof and the gentle fall of snow.
“Learn to be a man of your word.
* “Learn to live an honest life, full of simple happiness,
and go to bed each night with a conscience as clear as crystal.
“Learn to get some laughs and fun out of life.”
Neither adversity nor prosperity changes a man; each
merely brings out what there is in him.
