The figures were issued recently by the foreign commerce Udepartment of the United States Chamber of Commerce. The exports during the six months were $2,364,000,000, a gain of 13 per cent over the preceding yerr. The imports were $2,067,000,000, an inâ€" crease of" 12 per cent over ghe same period in the preceding year.

Each year the campaign has met with an inâ€" creasing measure of success ; last year it was estimated that more than oneâ€"half the entire population of the country was reached by it. â€" This year, as in others, in order to emphasize those phases of education which need special attention from the national point of view, certain days in‘ the week have been designated for speâ€" cial observance, as follows, according to the program issued by the bureau :. * speak of : them as "yokels" and *"boobs." The fact that rural Americans do not habitually feast their eyes on the Broadway electric signs or their noses on the aroma of the New York East Side does not prove their inferiority. That they cherish oldâ€" fashioned virtues, that they still cling to the ideals and traditions of: their tountry, that they still act like human ‘beings rather than poseurs, that they are not ashamed to act naturally rather than with a view of impressing other people that they are "culâ€" tured" in the conventional sense of that term, is not to their disâ€" credit. To the man broad enough to take people as they are, to estimate their worth by real rather than artificial standards, the society of these "boobs" and "yokels" is more stimulating menâ€" tally and safer morally than that of the egomaniacs, snarleyows and varioloid Europeans who dub themselves "intelligensia." The greatest man, the most universal character the nineteenth century produced, found his greatest satisfaction and inspiration in association. and conversation with the "boobs" and "yokels" cons‘:regated at backwoods country taverns, county fairs and poliâ€" tical rallies. Therein, indeed, was one sign of his greatness. _ â€"Rural America differs from urban Americaâ€"though not as : much as it did a generation since. The differences are in exterâ€" nals. â€" The people themselves are not essentially different, and gertainly villagers and ruralists are not essentially inferior; taken ag a mass the contrary is true. If the rural and small town l folk of the United States do not conform to the conventions of : crities who feel above them, this is no sign of inferiority in any | essential matter. Sophistication is not supefion’ty. And if the | cities of America were not constantly fed with a stream of new â€" blood and ‘brain from the American countryâ€"side they would die of dryâ€"tot.. Fully threeâ€"fourths of the worthwhile men in Amerâ€" ican history have been bred in small townsand rural communiâ€" No one can know rural and small town America without havâ€" ing o;nce been a part of it. Those who judge it casually are protoâ€" types of the tourist who sneers trt Europe‘s historic buildings beâ€" cause their plumbing is not upâ€"toâ€"date. Wisdom is a natural rathér than an acquired gift zd the homely "horse sg\ese" of people who dwell close to Nature and their fellows is more valuâ€" able and more admirable than the sour cynicism of those who on the "betterâ€"thanâ€"thou‘ type Of allegea _ cuivure wIUd Wulcad .. some people clothe themselves in their attitude toward ‘those they consider "‘beneath them." | ~ Our selfâ€"styled ‘"intelligensia,,â€"the word, like the breed, is a European importation or imitationâ€"ranging all the way from} . the sophomore socialists to the super smartâ€"alecks whose cleverly | B constructed wares enjoy a wide vogue among persons who feel . : superior, would ‘be hard pressed for a vocabulary if Sinclair Lewis ~ had not written his caricatures of rural and small town life known . as "Main Street" and "Babbitt."
