HOLDING BACK Bjr THOMAS ARKLE CLARK D?a of M?, Uni??r.ity of Illinois. |\/|RS. DAYTON was looking over her discarded clothing, and her husband's, to see what might with safety be disposed ot without loss or sacrifice to herself or to her family. She had listened recently to an appeal and she wanted to seem charitable and generous and yet not yield entire ly to her emotional Impulses. "Here are a couple of vests ot your pa's and an old brown skirt of mine," she said to her daughter, Minerva. "I think I'll send them to the committee. They are of no possible use tor any thing else, and 1 hate to give away anything that 1 could use." "Why doi't you put in that gray suit of father's?" Maggie asked, "and your last winter's coat? You'll never wear them again and they would give some needy person good service." "They seem too good to give away," Mrs. Dayton replied, "an?, besides, I'd thought ? might cut them~~uj> and braid tnem Tnto a fug; ilie gray and tfre b|ue would go beautifully together. Mrs. Jacksoft had one in her bedroom last we^k that pleased me very much." ' Mrs. Dayton forgot that she had a trunk full of braided rugs already that she had no place for. It was just the old habit of holding back, of never be ing quite able to make the surrender. The suit would hang in the closet un til It was moth-eaten, the coat would pass from one closet to another, or they would be made Into rugs for which she had no use, while down the ?treet there were men and women and children with hardly a rag to hide their shivering, naked bodies. When Gilford reported to the city official the amount of his assessable property he tould not quite bring him ?elf to make a clean breast of It. "I don't believe the other fellows tell the truth," he explained to an In timate friend, "and I can't afford to be skinned." He wasn't quite honest It is a custom many of ns follow, this holding back. We do not give our selves over to a principle with com plete abandon. When we give over we do it grudgingly. When we tell oar wives we lore them we ?ay so, too often, with reservations. We are afraid to be overenthuslastlc, over generous, overklnd. <?, 1924, WMt?ra Newspaper Union) Good government can't be found on the bargain counter, but its cheaper than poor government.
