HYPOCRISY
If we had anything to do with the paneling of that
final judgment sear we would have another place fixed
on the left of the throne where St. Peter sits. Of course
on his right stands the sheepherder who separates the
sheep from the goats, but on his left should be a good
hypocrisy hound, wise in the guile and craft of human
nature. ' He would have more business on his hands than
the other two together. .
His business would be to judge these eartnly hypo
crits that now parade before us in ever-increasing num
bers, and believe us he would have his hands lull.
Think of some of the classes he would have to con
There are the big capitalistic philanthropists
who, after gouging hundreds of millions from labor and
using state militia to quell strikes, donate millions to
libraries, colleges, churches and foreign missions. May- j
be it’s to salve their conscience, but maybe if we back j
plenty of missionaries in China and Africa it will be;
easier to get better roads and sell more automobiles
and gas. As to whether our religion is bettei than
their’s they don’t give a darn. Its a grandiloquent
gesture and they get good publicity in the papeis.
Then there are the senators and Congressmen who
weep bitter tears over the farmer’s plight but there’s one
way to save him and that is to protect him with some
kind of tariff. Well, that calls for a re-arrangement of
the tariff schedule, and believe us, the manufacturer who
has been enjoying its benefits for years isn’t going to get
any the worst of it.
And the senator who goes junketing with a grip lull
of booze, comes back to that sanctified (?) chamber and
gravely votes for the infamous 5 and 10 Jones law.
And out in Southern California where they flour
ish best are more cults and religions than you can
shake a stick at. Aimee is the bell-ewe of that bunch
and it takes two secretaries to count the money that
pours in despite her “disappearance” to the love nest.
Anyone with a new twist on spiritualism or religion
or joss worship can drum up a wealthy following im
mediately. Its all done in the name of God but we
wonder how God likes it.
And think of that mob of diplomats foreign and
domestic who hold out friendly hands and smile at other
diplomats and talk twaddle about intent and internation
al good will while behind their backs bankers and battle
ship builders and stratagists and airplane makers and
ammunition magnates are cooking up another war. They
smile and look pleasant while saying to themselves, “You
lying son-of-a-gun.”
Then there is the small town hypocrite whose
name is legion. He is the guy who goes to church regu
larly and pays his tithe and some times remembers the
girl he wronged when he was young. And when his own
daughter lets her foot slip he drives her out in righteous
wrath. His wife helps him make beer in their own cel
lar and she has a membership card in the W. C. T. U.
His bank is about to be taken over by the big new chain
because he has a swell list of mortgages with property
so much more valuable than the amount advanced that
its a shame to take the money.
Clara Bow’s fiancee is charged with an escapade
which would appear to give her grounds for divorce be- j
fore she is married.
Hens lay more when electric lights are employed
to lengthen their working hours, but an Oklahoma farm
er claims to have gotten even better results by cross
ing White Leghorns with an owl.
Maybe all these bears reported around here lately
are gathering for an attack on those who advocate
killing ‘em off.
Most folks prefer to do their stuff before a well
filled grand stand.
