This would be a ¡»erfectly terri-
ble world if It wasn’t for people,
They make the clouds bearable,
the told less penetrating, the heat
less oppressive, the chase for
food and shelter constantly enter-
tainlng.
Naturally people complicate the
process of living no end. They In-
tervene and interfere with every-
thing; whatever one does people
have an opinion about it Which
they express and some are so
lacking in respect for their fellow
humans that they try to do some
thing about such things.
Except for those who can go
off into the wfxxls and get enjoy
ment from contemplation of the
trees, the birds and the fish, peo
ple are the greatest source of
pleasure for most of us.
Some-
times we take them seriously and
thus lose the pleasure we might
derive. 'Phis is a particular habit
of the young.
The other day In a park a great
crowd of people was watching
the monkeys, standing hours on
end while the monkeys ran and
jumped and cuffed one another
about. To a few it seemed more
fun to watch the people watch
t'he monkeys. People are funnier
than monkeys because they are
more expressive; they do not de
pend entirely on the physical
body as a means of giving away
their thoughts. They ure more
complicated.
People are always working at
something.
They’ll save things
for years only to find that they
don’t need them or not so many
of them. They are restless and
are therefore engaged in many
different activities.
They make
speeches and, invented the tele
phone, the telegraph the radio
because a megaphone wouldn't
carry their voices far enough.
They try to wear different clothes
so they will be noticed and not
too different so they won’t lie no
ticed too much.
Perhaps the most amusing

PEOPLE
NEW SPAPER
A
is^ h
thing about people is~lhat they
take themselves seriously. Nearly
every one of them has a mission,
something they must do to fulfill
sonie great purpose. This probab-
ly adds to their opinion of them
selves to be so attached to big
affairs because most of them do it.
Truly, they are very interesting.
No wonder one of them wrote
years ago that “ the proper study
of mankind is man .
No one is ever entirely satis
fied with the works of a congress,
or of small committees, either,
for that matter. Congress Is a com
mittee, a committee of Individuals
elected In two ways from all over
the nation to make the rules the
remainder of us abide by.
Neither the east, nor the west
or south, got everything it want
ed. Neither did lulx>r or farmers
or business. That is the way it al
ways comes out and, in fact, that
Is the way it ought to be.
It is plain that this administra
tion is going to do wlhat it said it
would do. it Is going to stabilize
the nation’s economy. That means
the end of the Inflation and the
continued weakening of the dol
lar. It is not going to swing either
to the right or the left far enough
for either side to dheer very lust
ily.
Congress made some very size
able cuts In appropriations and
started the nation toward a bal
anced budget— and high time.
Biggest cut was made In national
defense and even these are not
great except In dollars. Percentage
wise they were small and when
the money appropriated Is added
to the sums heretofore appropri
ated and not yet spent, they will
be ample. Foreign aid wits cut and
recent events Indicate that Euro-
pean nations are tired of a diet
of dollars, perhaps we stayed with
them too long.
A start was made on a new
farm program.
Wheat farmers
may not like It although they
know that they cannot keep on
growing wheat so far above de
mand as has been the case. They
