Friday, April 12,1935 We Need To Give Thanks The courthouse is a very busy place these days. ?Scarcely anything affecting the public interest is left out. And while it may appear that too much is being done for the good of the people, yet when we con sider how little so many of us have done to take care of ourselves in emergencies, and how helpless some of us are, we must concede that we have a great gov ernment, a government with a heart to serve human ity. Without some such aid and asistance we might have destroyed our own government, which has faced op pression and depression about as long as the people could stand it. ~ On a visit one day last week, the activities in our county courthouse were found to be along the fol lowing lines: One department was teaching better and more eco nomical methods of farming; in another, better home and housekeeping methods; thy: was found a depart ment where the adopted methods pf education are being administered and promoted, Going further, a -department i- found to mukd and-keep permanent rec ords of legal documents and court proceedings; then comes an office where deeds, mortgages, marriag. birth and death records are kept. Passing on, offices are found where people are hard at work trying to make sensible adjustments in crop pioiluciiun su that men may farm at a profit. And here is. another office for loaning money to build homes, clear land, and start people in life by buying farm homes. Another department loans money to distressed farmers unable to buy the necessary things that a farmer needs to carry on farming. One of the big things found in the courthouse is what is commonly designated as the welfare depart ment. This is the place where the old and infirm, the some very good people who have not Ix-en able to buck the tides of jx.vcrty and advcr.ity, as well as a good many lazy, shiftless jieople who are weak in knowl edge and in desire to work. Altogether, this is the place where the mixed multitudes gather for help. We find in the same courthouse a peace office, and a place where tribute is collected to take care of all of these projects; also a place where dangerous people "are kept that the jierson and property of honest peo ple may be safe. These processes of our government were all going in full blast on this particular day, as well as a session of United States court to inquire into law violations. Everything found in a round-up of the activities of our county, state, and Federal government is designed to serve the best interests of the people, who consti tute the government. Cerainly, we have to admit some mistakes are made; especially so in the new proj ects, which have generall been of an experimental na 'tire. Yet when we stop to think of what a wonder fully fine government we have, we need to give thanks. ..I ' Proper Adjustment Necessary We to be forever lambasting big industry, yet when it so persistently organizes a great system of t?i?? propaganda, tending to divert the minds of the people from the true facts, it deserves lambasting This propaganda material comes from dozens of places and is written by espert distorters and twist ers of the truth. The fact remains that everybody knows when a labor-saving machine Is rolled into a factory that it is meant to save the owner of the machine from the cost of the labor of one or more persons?which, in short, means the return of the old joungle law, "sur vival of the fittest." If the machine succeeds, the man starves, because there is no one else who needs him. Experience has taught us that the machine has not failed; therefore, it is only a producer, and never a user, of its own product, which creates a surplus because there is no one to buy, since the very fellow whose job the ma chine took is no longer able to buy. Our greatest job is to learn the proper adjustment of the new order of things. Whereas two-thirds of all the work was done by man 50 years ago, it is now done by machine. There may be a way out, but it has not been found yet. Higher Type of News Needed News is hard to find these days. There was a time when the people at large relished good, wholesome news, regarding things and folks. Such things now seem to be of little interest, and we have a people who have seen so much and heard so much?most of which has not, nor does not amount to so very much?that it takes a real fiery sensation to arouse the sleepy minds to give attention to the things about us. We apparently relish stories of tragedies, scandals, and things along that line, even more than we do the wholesome things that would stir people to strive for better homes and a higher plane of living. We stress community interests that ' bring more money to the community far more than we do the things that give us normal and mental uplift. More news of a higher type is one of the great needs of the day. "Liquor Control" The newspapers generally speak of the proposed liquor law as "the liquor control bill." In this, we suspect (hey are, in most cases, unmindful of the truth of the expression. They doubtless speak thus because they think it means for people to conjryl li quor, when, as a matter of fact, its only true meaning is for liquor to control people. They seem to be unaware that they are whooping up the IJdl'ont-Raskob combine's big liquor trust, the sole purpose of which is to grow rich out of the life's blood of human beings, giving in return nothing hut sin and misery. Don't let liquor control. It is a destroyer of law and man. Borrowing and Lending Do not let low interest rates tempt you to borrow unless you really need the money. The old rule, "Never buy a tKIng unless you need iUnn matter how cheap jt is," is just as true now as it ever was. If we borrow money, the notes are sure to come due, and unless we have made a big lot of profit on the in vestment, we will find it hard to pay. It is much harder to pay back money borrowed in good times ihan it is to pay back money borrowed in bad times, because we cannot borrow so much during the latter period. One oiahe death blows; in fact, tlre~reaTfounda tion of our hard times was back in 1$19, when every body was lending money freely. They were out hunt ing for borrowers, which can always be found, and when everybody became either a big borrower or a big lender the crash came and both the bororwer and the lender were "busted." Do not let the get-rich-quick fever get you. It gen erally means financial death. Cause and Effect Political aspirations generally produce very legislation. HINTS FOR HOMEMAKERS By Miss Virginia Blount, Homa Service Director Virginia Electric I And Power Company ?v / "Let'* Eat Pie" Pie is said to be a most typical American food. The statistics ^of our public eating places show that pie is the favorite dessert of the great ma jority of people and if a census of our homes -could be taken pie would prob ably take first places as the one most popular food.
