? 3T Ih^WeeK. GOOD LENDING. GO?, SMITH-MR. McADOO. UgMeM* FOR GOLF. it North and South America - euctot set before the rest of. the wads an example of peace and * common sense, something is wrong wift North or South America. This yemrthe Latin Republic will spend ^jftOOQjOOO developing railroads, aofcsaost of the money will be bofivwed in the United States. Cb&e is negotiating a $40,000,000 lotfar in New Yoric to electrify the ."Qnan State Railways. Apparent ly mose South American republics hsf$. public officials sufficiently honest and competent to manage State railways. ?? The financing of desirable indus-i trial enterprises in. South America by United States banks is a"useful investment for American money. When Andrew Carnegie sold his mills to United States Steel he woaOd. accept only special bonds, wdaldnt take preferred stock as a gift, laogk d at the common stock saying It wasnt even water, it was "air." Recent figures would sur prise mid probably annoy Mr. Car negie's Scotch thrift. The - steel eddpany in 1926 earned $199,004, 741, enough to. pay $17.96 a share on the common stock, a new record" of peace-time prosperity in the steel business. One billion dollars will be spent on hew golf courses and clubhouses this year, including the cost of 1, 000 new golf., dubs starting and ' maintenance of old clubs. If the nation could build a thousand new .flyfiig machines, one for each new golf dub, to protect the links and v placid gentlemen playing on them, it would be a good thing. thy raiders seize $25,000 worth of "blending" machinery used to manufacture benedictine, chartre ?' ?>% , -v.-"'! : fo^ :o. ..Jis. Many an Ameri can has damaged his mucous mem brane, absorbing the product of that machinery. * Governor Ritchie, of Maryland, himself widely discussed in con nection with the DenSocratic Presi dential nomination," says 'Governor. Smith, of New York, "is the out standing Democrat* in the United States." On the other hand, Mr. Milton, editor of the Chattanooga News says William G. McAdoo is the only man for Democrats to nomin ate. - Mr Milton ' sdy? Governor Smith cannot be nominated be cause "the country is severity per cent dry, and no wet can be elec ted to the Presidency." Governor Smith's friends say, "wait, and see." John D. Rockefeller still has the ' New Y;rk Stock. Exchange seat that he bought ki 1883, forty-four years ago. He never Uses it, keeps it -perhaps to remind him of old ' days when he was .making money for himself before He began spend- ' ing bis millions in Rockefeller Foundations, institutes, fighting disease?for other people. * That seat, which probably cost Mr. Rockefeller less than $50,000 he could self noW for $180,000. If he holds it a litttle longer, it will be worth $200,000. Russian husbands andf wives will / be interested in their mail from now on. For a divorce you simply notify the authorities that you want it, then send word to your better half through the poet office and that settles it. You are divorc ed. . . In China the thing is more seri- _ ous. .The natives hate strangers as cats hate dogs. - They are tired of , watching foreigners spend money, having'.courts <?nd territory; of their own,; and are glad when the time comes to murder a Yew. The murdering seems to'be dose at hand." Unde Sam has some of his ships there, and unpleasant news may ; be. expected.' - After the Boxer rebellion, when the other nations compelled the ? Chinese to pay millions in dam ages, this nation handed the money back. But that wont help our popular ity. When Europe was in trouble, Uncle Sam sent an army of two million men, five thousand million * dollars, and other thousands of mil lions since. -? ? < ? - ? - ... ? brjr )ohn ]o?eph Gains*, M. D,. ' " THE ABUSE OF PRIVILEGE iM I wonder if my readers some times pause to think of the bound less privileges that men and wo men possess? There is nothing in or on this big, round earth?no, nor in the skies above, thai is not oujg to lay hold of, and uss aswe ; please, so long as we respect the rights of our fellow-men and wo men. Yet, man is the only created being that abuses, his divine per- ? > mit, well knowing that he: mast suffer fcy so doing. -Like the spoil- -i ed child, he sprees, does excesses - in everything debauches bis diges tive, eliminateve, nervous and sex ual systems?there is no privilege f% that he does not abuse?and the penalties are as sure as today's sunset! The abuse of privilege is man kind's most outstanding' sin; we; ought to'be ashamed.of ourselves/1* ?blessed as we are above all ani mate speeies, and defiantly indiUg- - ing our appetites as if wo Were; ' damageproof. Who among us ha* ' ever observed one of the o-callei lower animals violating the natur^.. ' al law? Violating thelaw of right living ? They ara seldom ill, and usually live out . the full expecta tion^ of lifeAmless man jnterfereay, > travaganee in our output, of enerv gy; prodigality, in things which are sacred; intemperance/ in so? called luxuries; defiance within the orchard of forbidden fruits?all these are producers of suffering and unhapplness, curtailera gf life itself, I am not sermonigtog,*- I am arguing for temperance in ALL things, and/ against the yiofetioii of our God-given privileges, feo*v ing that life health and happipbss i are the sura rewards. Eight liv ing will, to time, do ?WUy with the doctor and hie gripftl of "pal lets." Here is nothing tout we may jioV use; flw danger lies fe abuse. NEXT WEEK JUNGEB SIGNAL ? ' ' V - :-;v ? ? " ?
