COST OF GOVERNING US
The American people must be han
to govern, considering all It costs
They are like a hard bitted horse
which can only be kept In the road
by a strong and steady hand on the
relns. And like that powerful beast
they require a lot of feed and care.
And that care Is constantly In
creasing. According to the National
Industrial Conference Board, the an
nual cost of of our federal, state am'
local governments Is «12,179,000,000.
The year before It was only «11,618,-
000,000. Hear anything, Mr. Mrs
end Mian Taxpnyer?
Lawlessness, crime, the demand foi
better schools, roads, health work and
everything else, calls for more am
more money. And yet a lot of peo
pie can't spare a half hour °f thel:
precious time to vote at primary o>
election day. If each one was pnld
»1 .00 to show up at the polls, most
of them would be there, but theli
absence and poor judgment may cos<
them hundreds of dollars each.
The state of Oregon has had i
pretty good government on the whole
Yet It may some day occur to ou,
people, that a little growling after
the bills are received, and a llttli
more thought In selecting people t>
fix the taxes of our cities, counties
t;tat« and nation, would be goo<
business.

SUCCESS

“You cannot say that any man Ir
successful, so long as he Is alive,”
said the head of one of America',
greatest Industries not long ago. Hi
meant that any man might make i
blunder which would offset all that
had gone before, no matter how use
cessful he had been.
That was drawing It pretty fine
but how many men whom the world |
regards as '‘»ucessful” feel that war
about themselves.
Find the mer
who feel that they have succeeded
In doing all that they ever hoped j
or tried to do and you will find thi
unhappiest men alive.
They may
have succeeded In their business en
terprlses, but they have not succeeded |
In living.
Success means different things tc
different people, and sometimes th<
man whom the world pities has suc
ceeded in leading a happier life than |
has the one whom the world envies
A man who overtakes hts ideals Is I
not a succosa In any true sense of the
word. Unless our standards grow
steadily higher as we approach them
we soon lose the seat of striving to |
attain them, and In that striving,
not In the overtaking, lies happiness. |
and nowhere else.
It Is a common misconception that |
the Declaration of Independence de
clares happiness to be one of the in-1
alienable rights of humankind. The
right which the Colonists so boldly |
claimed was the right to pursue hap
plness. And the man or woman, who I
discovers early in life that the near
est approach to happiness, is through
a constant endeavor to do the job in
hand, as well as It can be done,
comes nearer to success, not only In
his or her Immediate occupation but
In the broader sense of living a sue- |
cessful life.
