FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 1932
TWINKLES
It may he love that makea the world go around and t hen
again it may only be spring fever.
If the people were always as particular about the men
they vote for as they seem to be this year, there would be no
depressions and mighty few empty public tills.
A recent healine in The Star read: “Less Cara And More
Trucks In County.” Another Rood headline would be: "Legs
Cotton and More Truck,” and reports from out in rural
Cleveland indicate that it will be that way this year.
A member of a Raleigh club, made up of leading citi
zens, derived the* idea of asking each member how he made
his first, dollar. One fellow answered: “I can’t even remem
ber now how I made my last dlolar, much less the first one.”
Perhaps his sense of humor will keep him going.
Other post offices may be suffering a slump, such as
the Shelby office, but the Raleigh postal receipts for 1932
shcfcild be holding up considering the number of form letters
citizens all over the State are receiving from job-holders
there who are hankering to keep their jobs.
In view of the fact that practically all of the American
Legion members in Cleveland county favor the payment of
the bonus, it would be real news if some local candidate
should come out with a statement saying the bonus should
not be paid. Keep reading The Star until you see that item
of news.
A DEMOCRATIC FISH
J. L. CAVE, a Democrat, was fishing recently in the Rapi
dan River close by President Hoover’s fishing camp in Vir
ginia. One catch was a two-pound trout. After it was land
ed and cut open a 1912 quarter was found inside with
"Waodrow Wilson” scratched on it.
*To those who believe in signs that may indicate a Dem
ocratic victory this fall. But the skeptical will likely ask
why the name on the coin was not that of Franklin D. Roose

PROFESSOR HUGGINS
IN HUNDREDS of home ir. a half down counties in this
.section are alumni of Boiling Springs—the old Boiling
Springs boarding high school, or the new junior college. For
years the. school has been an institution close to the daily
lifevof this section, and to a good many people Boiling
Springs meant Professor Huggins. Death this week claimed
the-■4lean of the junior college when James Dwyer Huggins
succumbed to a heart attack, but it was as Professor Hug
ging that he was best known to the hundreds close to the
sehlol.
* A quarter of a century ago Prof. Huggins came to the
rurgl high school and entered upon a faithful career as an
educator. In 26 years many boys and girls have passed in
and8 out of a school in which he was one of the most influen
tial (fignres. Scattered here and there over the country are
scows of men and women who, upon news of his passing, will
pause with remembrance of what he meant to them in their
youth. Ip this group are a largfe number of young ministers
who received their early education at Boiling Springs. Al
though he is no longer there in person, it will be many years
before those to whom the school means much can disassociate
Professor Huggins from it.
SCIENCE AND RELIGION
FROM THE PROFESSOR of psychology at Duke University
comas the direct statement that scientific knowledge
doea not have a tendency to undermine religious belief.
Throughout the years many religious leaders have warn
ed of the danger of science as an undermining influence to
religion. Of recent years the topic has been one of wide de
bate. Ministers and parents have expressed fear that the
young men and women of the land are being made into athe
ists and agnostics by the scientific knowledge they gather in
colleges and universities.
It is, therefore, of interest to hear a scientist deliver
himself of the opinion, based upon personal experience, that
science and religion do not conflict, when properly handled,
to the extent of science endangering the basic structures of
religion.
The scientist doing the talking is Prof. William Mc
Dougall, of Duke University, and his opinion is delivered in
an absorbing article, “Religion and the Sciences of Life,” in
The South Atlantic Quarterly. The complete article is too
lengthy for reproduction here, but thd opening paragraph,
in which the writer condenses the effect of his scientific
knowledge upon his religion, is given:
“The sciences of life are widely reputed to be dan
gerous to religious belief in a higher degree than the,
physical sciences: of all the sciences of life, psychology
is perhaps, most open to this reproach. It may, there
fore, be of some general interest if I, who have devoted
more than forty years to these sciences, testify, while
stiff pte-senile, that these prolonged studies have led me
A
to a position more favorable to religion than that from
which I set out. They have, in fact, led me from agnos
ticism to religion. Growing up in the midst of the great
evolution controversy, a keen reader of Darwin, Spencer,
and Huxley, I had reached, while still a mere boy, a
thoroughly sceptical and agnostic position. From that
position I have very gradually advanced (or, according
to the taste of the reader, receded) to a more liberal
one. This change has been brought about, lo the best
of my judgment, mainly by my scientific studies."
CHANGE AUTOS BUT NOT HORSES!
WASHINGTON correspondent inform that the Republican
party will have little to say about prosperity in the
campaign this year. Fact is, there is very little for that
party to say on the topic. The G. 0. F. campaigners said too
much about prosperity in 1928—far too much for them to
explain now, and for that reason, no doubt, good judgment
is shown in permitting as many as can to "forget about those
promises.
The Republican campaign slogan to supplant prosperity
will be, according to the Washington writers, “Do not change
horses in mid-stream.” It is a slogan that has been employ
ed heretofore by both major political parties, but there is an
ironical twist in using it as a Hoover slogan. To keep the
party in power it may be all right to advise that it is poor
policy to change steeds in mid-stream, but what if the steed
is a motor car? Wasn’t it Mr. Hoover who advised citizens
just a few days ago that now is the time to buy a new auto
mobile or trade in the old one? Wasn’t it at the White House
that nine new cars were driven into the garage last week to
replace the nine old ones?
If it is wise to change cars at this time, why not change
hvses too?
BONUS AND CONGRESSMEN
CONGRESSMAN A. L. BULWINKLE is to be opposed once
again by Chas. A. Jonas, of Lincolnton, the latter having
filed notice of hia candidacy this week.
Here and tfirere in the district are veterans expressing
the view that they may oyerlook their Democratic affilia
tion and vote for Mr. Jonas because some sentiment has been
aroused against Major Bulwinkle in the bonus payment con
troversy. Before they do so they should make sure how Mr.
Jonas feels about it. They might ask him a few questions.
Is he still an ardent supporter and booster of President
Hoover and the Hoover policies, as ardent and as enthusias
tic as he was in 1928 and in 1930?
If he is, what does he think of the President’s statement
that, he will veto the bonus payment when and if it is passed
by Congress?
Should the bill pass and should President Hoover veto
it, as he warns he will do, would Mr. Jonas, were he in Con
gress now, vote to pass the bill over the President’s head?
In asking those questions it might pay to remember, too,
that Major Bulwinkle himself was one of the boys overseas
and that since the World war he has taken an outstanding
lead in Congress in advocating and supporting measures to
aid the veterans, their widows and dependents.
IT’S THE MAN, NOT THE AGE
AGAIN SOME WRITER points out that it is a “young man's
world.’’ To support his statement he gives the follow
ing reminders:
John Paul Jones was a full sea captain at 22.
Napoleon was an artillery captain before he was 23.
Edgar Allen Poe was internationally known as a poet,
at 18.
Alexander the Great had conquered the known world
at 26.
Eli Whitney was 28 when he perfected the cotton gin.
Theodore Roosevelt was a member of the New York
legislature, written a book at 23, and was president at 43.
Others could be added to the list of men who have
achieved success and fame in their early ,v»ars. But the
other side, it will be noted, is not given. Some of the great
est achievements in history were those of men beyond three
score, and several of the immortals were three, score and ten
or more at their peak.
It is praiseworthy to spur young men on by reciting the
deeds of other young men, but at the same time the records
show that it is unfair to discourage Ihe older men.
It’s the man and not the age that counts. One may, as.
the modern expression puts it, click in youth; the other may
reach the heights when on the shady side of life, but the
age when the achievement comes has nothing to do with it.
