In the mad rush of the automobile,
traveling" at a high rate of speed over
the concrete roads, rabbits and good
yellow hound dogs continue to lose
their lives by attempting to cross the
"race tracks." In order to Have the
ralbbit crop for future generations,
some of the scientists f^hould begin
to undertake to breed a faster rabbit
for this section, such as his cousin
down in Texas.?Yorkville Enquirer.
"Sweat And Sacrifice"
It Ls a sound and wholesome declaration?that
made by Merle Thopre.
editor of The Nation'.- Business, in
his address to the National Electric
Light Association at it- convention
in Atlantic City.
Mr. Thorpe evidently hold- the
view that too many of us are. or at
least have been, looking for some
power. like t.h>? government, to wave
.some sort of magic wand, as it were,
and "restore prosperity." Most of Uj
are seeking, he says, "a short-cut, an
oa.-y formula, usually legislative, that
will restore General Business." But
h< reminds that .<-.? few include :n
the proscription mental and physical
<& exercise along w t r. the pill. "'"'Sweat

Cuba's with sugar and our own farm
"relief" activities. The effect in
most of these cases has simply been
to bring about an artificial condition
which made trade more hazardous
and impaired confidence.
And the vtry best omen that a
genuine recovery is now under way
is the fact that most of us now
realize the truth of the principles set
forth by Mr. Thorpe. Now that the
majority of us have given up the
idea that government, or some such
political force is going to come along
and prop up our individual interests
in the places where they have sunk
in their economic foundations, and
are realiznig that it is up to us, individually
and collectively, to put
forth our own energies and efforts
to improve our own affairs, it may
be confidently expected that we shall
move along a bit faster.
The great teachers of religion and
moral ethics base their work upon
the tenet that the laws which govern
man's moral and spiritual welfare
are imposed upon him from a superior
source; that he cannot change
j them, and that the way i>v which he
is to attain his highest spiritual and
moral wellbeing is to strive earnest-h?lo
know yvhat tlm-r laws are and
make his lif^ 4\armonious with them.
Doubtless the same sort of teaching
is pertinent to man'- economic affairs.
Our best state of economic
wellbeing i- to be reached through
adjusting our affairs to fundamentals
of economic law. raj;her than through i
; the proe>s of atemptm.g to revi-e
.Cut i". the \ast few years we ha'v
I beer ' y .hg out just that sort o'
! thin- n this and other countries. The
jresul' has been disappointing but also
' h ;gh v instructive. We aie. getting
! hack, finally. t<? a better understandI
iug of t.he tfaet that economic laws
I w ill work themselves out.?regardless.
, ami that our wellbeing will result not
! from attempting to evade or outw.t
: them, but by understanding them and
putting our economic affairs in bart
rr.ony with them. ?Greenville News.

Where "Advertising" Fails
Eugene Ashcraft, in Monroe Enquirer:
In a crosscountry trip I counted
seven "sign boards" of defunct and

later?often sooner?there will be a
notice of bankrupt proceedings appearing
in the papers.
