In China they boast of pedigrees thirty centuries long; the only peo ! pie that can show anything equal to this are the Jews. The proud Jew of this day can look down with con tempt upon the Hohenzollerns, the Romanoffs and the Guelphs of Europe, "whose blood has crept through scoundrels since the flood." | But to the Egyptians Moses was a I slave's son. He was to them as a j black baby, born in a Louisiana j slave-hut, would have been to the j Southern aristocracy in 1850. j Time has a grim humor. The mon i archs of Egypt ai*e today only known |as contemporaries of Moses. The Czar of Russia will be known as the contemporary of Tolstoy. Moses goes up into smoking Sinai and has a conversation with the thun der and lightning. What did they say to him? He shows us when he comes down. There on a stone slab are graven the Ten Commandments. Whether he really spoke with God, J or whether he had a hypnotic fit up j there in the thunderstorm, the fact j remains that in some way he got hold ! of the toughest, most everlasting I and fireproof bundle of truths any | son of man ever found. The Ten Commandments are the j THE FOREST CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1928 most important words v in history. They were given by Moses to the Jews, but they have been generally accepted throughout Christendom as the foundation of all law and morals. They are the basis of society in the civilized world. There is no other instance in his tory where a rule has been recog nized and obeyed by the mass of the most intelligent people for over three thousand years. They are not mere ly religious teachings inculcated by the church. They lay their restrain ing hand on every human being. They function in the home, the market, the street and office. They hold in the wild places of the earth and in the farthest seas.—Dr. Frank Crane. READERS COMMENTS I I . i Support Gardner, Urges Anti-Smith Democrat Editor The Courier :-Just a few words about the present political sit uation. I have voted the democratic ticket for over forty years and have never scratched a ticket—yet, but I will not vote for A 1 Smith, for the following reasons: he was nominated on a dry platform and for enforce ment, but he afterwards repudiated the platform and he wants the 18th amendment charged. His affilia tions with Tammany, which does not represent Democracy, (see the vote of Tammaivy in national elections in proof of this.) Last, and by no m&ans ! j least, he is a Catholic, which does not stand for, or represent our form of government. I will not vote for Hoover. How ever, I would like to urge every voter to support our state ticket, and' let the Smith electors alone. Max Gard ner is using more sense than any speaker in the state, and deserves the whole heai'ted support of the party. Senator Simmons has been regard ed by me as a politician, but now I regard him as a statesman and he will get the appreciation of the people for the cause in which he is fighting. Yours for a big state democratic majority. J. F. Womble City, IMPULSES Miss Jackson, after eleven years' experience at San Quentin State Prison, declares that women crimi nals are the victims of uncontrolled impulse rather than of a physiologi cal leaning toward crime. "There is no criminal type among women prisoners," she says. "Crime among women generally follows an uncontrolled impulse in which wo men leave the usual path of life and make a detour into crime without thought of the results that follow." It appears from this that control in all emergencies is the virtue most needed. The writer was once a prison offi cial and frequently visited the State Prisons of Illinois. He was surprised to find that the class of convicts that gave the least trouble was the mur derers. The reason is that murders are usually committed on a impulse and a man need not be a hardened criminal to be guilty of this crime. Of course there are some people who are simply lacking in moral sense. Their whole tone of morals is low. and all they need to commit a crime is the opportunity. But all of us are potential crimi nals when it comes to impulse, a sud den surging of passion or some over whelming desire. Parents should learn from this that the most necessary lesson to teach children is self control. Children do not need so much to be taught obedience as to be taught how to obey their own better selves. Any one who finds his passion too strong for him and who loses his sense of restraint when under the influence of them is in danger of committing any crime. Self discipline may be-very hard; to people of strong emotions it is : sure to be hard. But it is none the less essential. Most lawsuits would be avoided if ; people would control themselves and >' could learn to be good sports and ( take their losses without yielding to j a desire for vengeance.—Dr. Frank Crane. ✓ KIWANIS CLUB Directly after luncheon at the Ki wanis Club Monday evening, a mo tion was carried that the club adjourn I in respect to Mr. C.
