COLLIER’S NATIONAL WEEKLY
in the December 5th issue of Col­
lier's National Weekly appears a
lengthy article by W. O. Sanders, en-
tiUed: “Why Jim Crow Is Flying
North.'' While one may not agree
with all the writer says, neverthe­
less. the article is worth reading
from many viewpoints.
Uncle Sam has let it be known
that he is about ready to grab every­
body who is practicing medicine
without license. Why be so particu­
lar about protecting human lives
from quack doctors, when mobs burn
and lynch thousands of people in
many parts of the country and noth­
ing said or done about it by ths
Government.
If the United 8tates bad in it more
Governors like Smith of New York
who were willing to give everybody
a chance to live, our preachments on
democracy for other nations would
be better taken.

CAN’T KICK AND PULL
When a mule kicks he can’t pull.
The same is true of a man.
When a man kicks, he Isn't doing
much pulling.
As soon as a mule starts kicking
over the trace« or rarin' up about
something that doesn't exactly suit
him, wallop him over the ears with a
club a couple of times, If be don't
straighten up and start pulling again,
unhook his trace chain and turn him
out of the team. It's the only way to
get along.
A kicker not only doesn’t do any
work himself, but Instead upsets the
whole organisation.
He holds back
