A TRUE COURSE
No less a man than Abraham
Lincoln once said that the
Union cannot endure half
slave and half free. Propon
ents of slavery cried in loud
voices that it was unconstitu
tional to abolish it, and, even
as now, shouted, “Save the
Constitution.” It took a Civil
War to settle the issue and
with its termination the Con
stitution was not junked, but
simply amended in accord
with the wishes of the major
ity
Today the cry of opponents
of Franklin D. Roosevelt, an
other greatPresident.is “Save
the Constitution.” An Auto
cratic dictatorship is being
set up in Washington, they
charge, which has no regard
for State nor Constitutional
rights.
The alarm, of course, is now
being sounded merely for
political effect and has no
foundation in truth, any more
than did a similar charge
against Lincoln. There is
something higher than the
Supreme Court, and that is
the will of the people of this
country. The voice of the
people will speak in support
of the President because he
thinks in terms of national
security, national prosperity
and not along class nor sec
tional lines to the detriment
of the whole people.
The exploiters of mankind
and the guardians of great
wealth may shout “Save the
Constitution” until they are
blue in the face and President
Roosevelt will follow the cou
rse he has outlined that this
nation cannot continue poli
tically free and economically
enslaved,even as Lincoln said
some 75 years ago on the
slave issue. The course of
Roosevelt is just the same to
day as was that of the martyr
ed president: The Union
must and shall be preserved
to establish justice and pro
mote domestic tranquility.
We have just heard of a
Scotchman who has found a
use for old razor blades. He
shaves with ’em.

DID YOU EVER
STOP TO THINK
By
EDSON R. WAITE,
Shawnee, Oklahoma.
People who succeed in whal
ever line of endeavor the}
are engaged in must do a lol
of thinking. Some people
think in circles, but the suc
cessful person thinks scientif
cally and prepares for all em
ergencies and contingencies.
If the intelligent, capable
people in a' city took the in
terest in affairs they should
take, there is hardly anything
that could not be attained
The moss-backs and the pull
backs are an incurable inflic
tion. The activities of the
willing workers stand out
strikingly by contrast. All
honor to them !

A retailer must make a pro
fit from sales in order to keep
his doors open. When prices
go up, don’t call him a robber
until you investigate. New
taxes may have caused the
increase.
o—o
“Chewing the rag” all the
time gets you nowhere. It’s
the doing of things that count

As oil is essential to the life
of a motor, relaxation and re
freshment are essential to the
worker.
o—o
borne men paid by the pub
lic owe a duty to the taxpay
ers. Some of them are long
on promises and short on ser
vice.

Communities in which peo
ple have not learned to play
together are communities in
which people cannot work to
gether.
An orphan boy was recent
ly arrested in New York for
begging to support an imagi
nary mother. Evidently the
name mother is sometimes
the invention of necessity.

Reason For Slipping
Human Intelligence
One reason why average
human intelligence is deter
iorating was suggested at a
recent meeting of the Insti
tute of Handicraft Teaching
in London, by Prof. Raymond
Butler, head of the Aston
Technical college at Birming
ham. It is neglect of Nature’s
method of training brains by
joint use of brains and hands.
Evolutionists believe that
the first steps toward human
intelligence were taken ages
ago by tree animals whose
lives required precise co-or
dination of hands and eyes;
to leap safely between the
branches; to seize fruit or
nuts to eat; to repel enemies
and so on.
Modern tests of how child
ren learn also indicate that
similar joint training of hand
and eye to work together is
an important help in improv
ing individual brains accord
ing to the Baltimore Sun.
Nowadays this joint train
ing of hand and eye is rare.
Many popular games, such as
cross word puzzles, require
none of it. Education has be
come largely book learning.
Even handwriting has deter
iorated.

FREEZING WEATHER
Your automobile engine needs careful attention
during the winter months to withstand the hard
ships of cold weather driving.
The first essential is to change to a lighter grade
of engine oil, for better and more certain lubrica
tion.
Next, it is especially important that the oooling
system be clean, leak-tight, and in proper working
order, and protected by the best anti-freeze ob
tainable.
