Not Much the Matter
With I s.

M
0 D E R N erf.ciency and
speeding-up are driving
this generation rial cry the al
armists. Our asylums are over
clouded, our jails are full, we
can't build hospitals fast enough
to care for the mental and physi
cal wrecks of this speedmad civil
zation. We pay too heavily for our
scientific improvements and high
pressure methods. Civilization is
like a runaway engine making fast
time but bound for destruction.
Jazz mania, sex abnormalities,
mob hvsterics. and the flouting of
all the conventions, are the inevi
table consequences, we are told.
The only hope for the race is to
go back to the simplicity, yes.
even the crudeness and discom
fort, of the life of our fathers.
But, wait a minute, let us ex
amine the actual conditions a lit
tle more closely. Travel, at sixty
miles an hour never put any man
in an asylum, and there is no more
immoratiry in flying through the
air than in running along the sur
face of the earth. Exposed plumb
ing is not vicious, electric lights
are not demoralizing, and a ser
mon heard over the radio may be
just as uplifting as though heard
in a church. The automobile, in
itself, is not a contrivance of the
devil, and the traveling crane and
pneumatic hammer are not tools
of diabolism.
It is rather interesting to note
that every advance in human pow
er and comfort has been met with
this kind of complaint.
A fair day's work never hurt
any normal man. The fact that
a man by the use of machinery
can move a hundred tons of pig
iron where in times past he could
only move ten. -does not produce
a deleterious effect upon his mind
or morals. The' fact that a busi
ness manager by use of tele
phones, telegraphs, pneumatic
tubes, dictaphones, typewriters
and calculating machines can ac
complish more in one day than
his father could in a week, does
not wear his nerves to a frazzle.
The truth is, that the creeping
mental and moral paralysis that
is threatening our civilization is
due to bootleg whiskey, all-night
bridge, midnight jazz, over-indulgence
in rich and highly spiced
foods, unventilated rooms, sheer
avarice and cupidity, uncontrolled
passion and lust, inordinate ambi
tion, and an overweening desire
to outshine our neighbors, than all
the speed and efficiency the world
has known.
Here is where our schools have
a significant work to do, by teach
ing our children that the prizes of
life are not money and power and
place, nor are its satisfactions
found in excitement, nervous stim
ulus and hysteria; that things pur
chased at the cost of health or
honor are too dear; and that true
satisfaction consists in health of
body, peace of heart, serenity of
spirit, a mind well stored with lof-

A State of .Mind.
Orvpon Business.
THOSE individuals who speak
of business depression should
remember that so-called "hard
times" are nine-tenths st.Ue of
mind. There is an old French
storv that illustrates this point.
It seems that here was a por
trait painter who had attained a
high standing in his art, and was
therefore well paid for his efforts.
It was his custom to sit each day
in a certain cafe and drink a glass
or two of good wine. One day, as
he took his accustomed seat, he
noticed a newspaper on an adjoin
ing table, whose headlines said:
"Beware, Hard Times Are Com
ing'" This troubled him, and instead
of ordering his usual brand of
wne, demanded a cheaper vint
age. The proprietor noticed this,
and asked him if he was dissatis
fied with the wine he usually
drank. "No," replied the portrait
painter, "But hard times are com
ing, and 1 must economize."
That evening, the proprietor of
the cafe remembered what his pa
tron had said and told his wife:
"That silk dress you were think
ing of buying you must change
it to cotton. Hard times are com
ing." The wife told her modiste of
her decision. The modiste re
membered the portrait she had
ordered and, feeling sure that she
could not now afford such a lux
urv, cancelled the order.
In order to forget this dsicour
aging occurrence, the portrait
painter repaired again to the cafe.
As he w as about to order his wine,
he noticed the same paper on the
adjoining table with its glaring
headlines: "Beware! Hard Times
Are Coming!" He examined it
more closelv and for the first time
noted the date line. The paper
was two vears old.

Christmas.
Benton County Independent.
THE word Christmas origin
flllv nc fhe twm. nf n
service commemorating the birth
of Christ. Because of the disparity
of accurate historical data as to
the exact date, early Christians
observed the day at several liffer
ent dates. There was consider
able discussion of the accuracy of
the date in the early centuries.
and some of that discussion occa
sionally crops out in our own day.
but such a discussion is uninter
esting and seldom taken seriously.
Today Christmas is not merely
a word and a birthday. It is that
and more. It celebrates the birth
of the Savior, it is true, but the
word now typifies the whole life of
service and good will of the Mas
ter. It is a spirit today. Unbe
lievers and skeptics accept the
spirit of Christmas and reverence
the Golden Rule w ith those of the
church. Christmas means a per
iod of merriment and happiness,
good cheer, and good will to fel
low men.
The story of the manger, re
corded 2000 years ago, has swept
the world and the light of the Star
of the East has penetrated the
dark corners of the earth. The
story lives as the classic of class
ics until today the civilized world
uses its spirit as a foundation of
ethical relationship.
During the year the significance
of the babe in the manger may be
crowded aside by the business of
living, but at Christamas it is told
afresh to all Christendom and its
annual appeal does not diminish
for He still lives.

Bribery of the States.
The Manufacturer,
PRESIDENT COOLIDGE, in
discussing the budget, attack
ed the system of Congress giving
federal aid to states, conditioned
upon the state legislatures or the
people voting as much more mon
ey for the project.
He pointed out that estimates
were called for more than $109,-
000,000 for highways, boats, naval
and harbor improvements, naval
bases and even fortifications, pro
viding the states raised as much
more money.
As a matter or fact, no more
pernicious system of doubling up
appropriations and burdening the
people with high taxes and bond
issues has ever been devised.
it is employed extensively in
framing so-called uplift legisla
tion, agricultural college and state
university extension work, giving

the state or county will raise as

It is a svstem that nnn iin.
united, leaves the states and their
subdivisions helpless against the
pressure and demands of pater

President Coolidge spoke of
