TH E DRIFT TO TH E CITY
This country is becom ing industrial and urban, i
Until this cen tu ry the m ajority of people lived in
the country, the 1910 census being th e first to |
show th at the city had overcom e th e country
population in num bers. The 1930 census gave
the city th e g re a te r ratio by about 50 to 60.
With this drift to th e city com es som e of our
social problem s —crim e, divorce and disease. Di
vorce is increasing m uch faste r th an m arriage
increases. Children are no longer a sse ts but
decided liabilities.
In form er tim es when the population was
largely on the farm , fam ilies were large. Often
the children furnished all the labor necessary on
the farm and were sources of econom ic gain.
Also m oat of the food and som e of the clothing
were produced by them on the farm . Today, in
the city, a salaried m an can hardly support a
family. If the children go to w ork they m ust
stint their education and often be in poor environ
m ent. This is a condition th a t is producing a
race with a different new point—m ore so in the
thickly settled east than the west.

A FORM OF SUICIDE”
A certain friend of m ine prospered mightily
in his business and investm ents. 1 used to see
him often, and it distressed me to observe th at
his increase in w ealth had apparently added
nothing to his peace of m ind. He seem ed to
be alw ays worried. His health w as not to o good.
With each added million he developed a new
com plaint.
The o th er day 1 saw him again for the first
tim e in nearly a year. Ilis eyes shone. He was
full of pep and plans a w onderful tra n sfo rm a
tion.
"You know, 1 used to talk alstut retiring." he

LICENSE FEES AND MARKET ROADS

M easures designed to re tu rn som e of the a u to
mobile licenses m oney and gasoline tax to the
counties for m ark et road use are being introduced
in the legislature. Sooner or later som e of this
m oney m ust come back to the country to relieve
property road taxes. If it is logical to build sta te
road, and it is, w ith license fees and gas taxes
then it is also logical to build m ark et roads in
such m anner. The sufficiency of the funds for
both purposes is the only angle th a t need be
considered. W ith the continued increase in rev
enue from this source the tim e should come w hen
there is sufficient for both sta te and m ark et roads.
Mr. R askob seem s to own the D em ocratic
p arty—a t least he says he h as bought and paid
for it by assum ing all its financial liabilities
However, we would not be surprised if th e rank
and file contested hLs deed a t the next election.
But Mr. R askob’s generosity should n ot be over
looked considering he voted for H ughes, H arding
and Coolidge. If he had been a life long dem o
cratic th a t gentlem an probably would have
changed the nam e of the party before now.
Tw o years passed. Idleness lost Its charm .
Time, which had seem ed to pass slowly when
he w as chained to a job. now hung around his
neck like a m illstone. With his days free for
w riting he actually w rote less th an in th e years
w hen, with all th eir dull routine, he had been
stim ulated by daily co ntact with th e active world.
