i HOW MUCH SAND HAVE YOU? ?
What is sand?
It is defined in one way to be a loose material consisting of
small but easily distinguishable grains resulting from the disintegration
of rocks (most commonly of Quartz.) It is used for
making mortar and glass, and for moulds in founding. The
name is applied to the coarse quality of earth found in this section
of the country, and is sometimes in banks or beds and is
frequently cast up from the bottoms of streams by the action of
-water.
Each grain of it, though small is composed of one of the hardiest
and most enduring substances known to mankind. Each
grain is as hard as the solid rock itself from which it came. A
frain is perhaps stronger within itself than the huge rock could
have been for the reason that this grain has withstood th*
ges of time and come down to us in this present age a complete
entity whereas the big rock has crumbled and lost itself in the
grains of sand.
When furnished with some element to bind the grains together,
they become a hard and unyielding mass. Here is the
reason why sand is used for building homes for man, for bridges
and concrete work of many kinds.
So that sand has another meaning gained by reason of its staying
qualities. It means courage; pluck; grit. When used in
tfc.s sense it may well be said to belong to some one of the num
THE HOBBY HERALD, OON WAY, 8, 0. MAR. 29, 1923
berless kinds of slang, but there is no one word in the English
language today that expresses what we mean, when we refer tc
courage or pluck in a man or woman, as well as the word sand.
Now that you know what sand means, how much of it have
you got? It has been said that all of us have to eat a certain
amount of sand in this world. In the course of a lifetime the aggregate
amount taken may be a peck or a bushel according as
the occupation of the person may have kept him or her out in
the fields or on the roads and dusty streets. It is not in this
sense that we now refer to sand. We mean to ask you just how
much of courage, pluck, and grit do you carry in your makeup
and with which you are fortified to meet the stresses and the
hard tasks of life.
The more you have of it, the more will you be able to carry
out the purposes of life. Sand is a thing which is admired in
any man or woman who possesses it to such a degree as to enable
them to stick to duty, no matter what may try to call them
away. With it we face the greatest obstacles with an unending
faith, and without it we draw back and cower and leave the prize
to be taken by some one else.
It is the opposite of fear and indecision. The man who has it
will go forward while the man who does not have it will lag behind
and leave the hard tasks to be done by some one else.
Since sand is so important then in the gaining of success, men
should study how to attain it. Many different things will tend
to give you an accumulation of sand.
Among them let us mention regular habits of life which will
bring a reasonable assurance of good health. The Inundation of
sand is nerve. Keep the nerves, which were sound when you
were born, always in that condition by careful living. Be temperate
in all things. With a foundation carefully protected and
preserved, build on that foundation by the right mentai attitude
and allow nothing to distract you from the aims and purposes
which you intend to tarry out. This brings sand in the activi
ties ana successes of life, and sand which can be used for those
purposes can be used in any other way whenever sand is needed.
SUGAR PROFITEERS
Growers of sugar beets in Colorado and other western Sstates
are in poverty and bankruptcy. They were forced to sell their
beets below the cost of production notwithstanding the tariff
that was supposed to make them prosperous. Once the Sugar
Trust got the farmers' beets at ruinous prices and turned them
into sugar, the cost was boosted rapidly. On the one side the
raw product was bought p,t the lowest possible figure and on the
other side the commercial sugar was sold at the highest price,
with one exception, in 50 years.
BOUQUETS AFTER DEATH
This is a practical world and we are a practical people! But
there is such a thing as being too practical, too 'hard-headed, too
business-like. If our indulgence in these homely virtues takes
from rather than ministers to, our well being and happiness,
they are virtues out of place.
It is American doctrine to "be shown." We don't want to buy
a "pig in a poke." When we employ a man we pay him to do a
job. We demand that he labor his eight hours for his pay. He
must earn his bread by the sweat of >his brow. If we can get
someone else to do it for less, so much the worse for the man we
had and whom we now fire!

our men of research, our professors, our scientists, "by all
means invent and discover, and delve, and dig up new things for
the benefit of all of us. If you do, you can sell them to us. But
don't neglect to make your own living while you discover or invent,
otherwise you'll starve!"
It never occurs to us (the few, very few, positions in this
country in which a man can make a living while engaging in research
work are not enough to count)?it never occurs to our
Government to say to erudite man of learning "here is five
thousand dollars a year for life. Go ahead and eat and drink and
clothe yourself and your family and forget the battle for existence.
Use all your time, all your talent, all your enthusiasm to invent,
discover, dig and delve, that we may all have the benefit!"
Of course, after they are dead we raise hospitals and call them
Walter Reed, and erect statues to S. P. Langley, but while they
live wc don't give our really great investigators, inventors, scientists,
and discoverers a real chance. No, sir! They have to
make a living first. Every man must stand on his own feet!

business" failures i
Republican newspapers are taking comfort from reports which
show that commercial failures were not so numerous in January
and February 1923 as they were in the two corresponding months
of 1922. This is a new tack for these papers, since they have
ceased talking of the growth of prosperity and are now recording
a decrease in adversity.
There will have to be a very large decline in the number of
commercial failures to make the total as low as it was in 1919,
the last full year of the Wilson administration. The number of
such failures reported in 1919 was 6,456 for the entire country.
The number of failures in 1922 was 22,416, and in 1921, the first
year of the Harding administration, there were 20,014, which
was almost three times the total for 1920, the last year of the
Wilson administration.
VOTE AGAINST CREDITS
Thirty-two of the thirty-six votes cast against the bill to provide
additional credits for tfie agricultural and livestock industries
when it was put on its passage in the House of Representatives
were those of Republicans. Most of these Republican opponents
of the measure are from New England, New York, and
Pennsylvania.
It was observed that one-third of the Republican members of
the House either actively opposed the bill or deprived it of support
by abstaining from voting. More than four-fifths of the
Democrats voted for the bill.

OFFICERS T A Ki? I
ONE RUM STILL
(Continued From Page One)
about these jugs butihe refused to
give them any information as to what
they were intended for and would not
tell what he had them for. In answer
to questions he stated that he did not
own a still, but that he was going after
some whiskey.
The officers refused to believe what
Strickland said about having a still,
and then they followed the road further
into the bay. About one hundred
yards inside this bay they found
a rum mill, all complete, and set up
ready for business. At it was also two
hundred gallons of mash, five jugs,
two buckets, one funnel, and seven
barrels. The officers fully believe that
if they had come upon the scene
thirty minutes later they would have
found Strickland at work at this still.
Strickland was not arrested as he
had not been caught in the act, and
as the officers proceeded on their way
into the bay, after stopping him and
putting a number of questions to him,
Strickland took another direction and
left.
After the still had been found and
destroyed the officers turned back to
look for Strickland and try to find
where he had gone. They followed
his tracks for some distance and
found the bag of jugs where he had
hid them hastily and made good his
escape.
This raid is said to have been made
in a section of the county where illicit
whiskey stilling has been carried
on for many years, with more or less
frequency, and by a number of men
who seem to be willing to dare the
officers of the law and make the white
whiskey that goes by the name of
"monkey rum."
On March 3rd, 1923, policeman King
captured Louis Tyler and Will Tyler
at a still which was in operation at
the time of the arrest. Strickland
was at the same still at which the
Tylers were caught in the net, but
he made good his es<:ai e that time
also. It will be remembered, however,
that at a term of the criminal c?<urt
last year, Strickland and I ouis Tyler
| were tried and onvicted for this of
iense ana were sentenced, each to a
term of three months on the public
works. This case is said to he under
appeal to the Supreme Court at this
time.
There are sections of Green Sea and
Floyds in which thick bays are located.
It is in one of these places that
ihe raid was made on the 22nd.

FIDELITY ENTERTAINMENT
Due to had weather, the Fidelity
class held its regular meeting at.
o'clock Tuesday evening, March 20th,
instead of Monday.
After having a nice chatty conversation
the minutes were read and ap- J
proved. Thus the members found
that they had a few dollars in the
treasury from the sale of candy. They
thank the public very much for their
co-operation.
Mrs. D. G. Spivey, the Fidelity
teacher, then assigned each member a
part in the coming Sunday program.
It was too bad that part of the public
missed this program, as it was
very good indeed.
The finishing touch to this nice evening
was the serving of a delicious
course by the sweet and charming
hostess, Miss Blanch Taylor. Thus another
wonderful day rolled away for
the members of the Fidelity class.
