A KANIKIM
THOUGHT...
By J. Troy Ilickman
As this is written, strikes are
popping everywhere. It isn't al-
ways the low-paid groups.
Prosperity is sometime a funny
thing. It makes us dissatisfied. The
more we have, the more we want.
It is as if we said, "To heck with
the Country, so long as 1 get
mine!"
More pay. More money afloat.
More inflation. We can handle
more dollars, without their buying
any more for us. Like a dog after
his own tail.
Right now, in this most affluent
country, greed seems to be gel-
ling us down. We don't seem to
appreciate or enjoy what we have.
So many of us are beefing al
everyone else, — hating.
We are acting like a bunch ol
spoiled kids. We may be riding for
a fall. I am not wise enough to
say. Hut the Bible says, "Pride
goes before a fall, and a haughty
spirit before destruction."
Humility is no! one of our na-
tional virtues jus! now.
A man who tough I a new car
and got a lemon, look il back to
the dealer and complained. The
dealer said, "II must have been
assembled on a Monday. On Mon-
days, only a part of the plant
workers show up for work. Too
much weekend. Too much booze,
loo many miles on the road."
Our prosperity has go; us to lite
point where more and more can't
stand to live without booze or
drugs or both.
So many people come out of
college these days with degrees
that the word is out than an MA
today gives no more leverage than
a BA used to and thai even I'll

Piney Creek Philosopher, Out
Of Newspapers Temporarily,
Examines Some Old Sayings
ImIiioi's note: The Piney Creek
Philosopher on his Johnson grass
farm on Piney ran out of news
pa|>ers this week hut that didn't
(cent lo stop him
Dear edltar:
! Off and on over the years, in
Is-tween newspapers, I've boon
working on a fence out here on
this Johnson grass farm ami was
hard at it more or less the other
morning when a neighlior stopped
by ami said
"Still working on that fence,
huh? How long you been at it'.'
I Must Is' 15 or 20 years now. My
grandfather once told me a man
should never atari something he
i can't finish See yisi later."
Not having a newspaper to read
I sat down and thought alsiul what
I he'd said After long reflection I
have concluded it's just another
(of those old sayings, like what
i go< up is bound to come down,
! which was said by a man wlio
; never paid any taxes.
You follow the principle ol not
| starting something ys can't finish
| and see where you get For one
i thing, we woukln'l have any high-
; ways, as I've never seen one yet
that was finished One end is worn
'Kit before the other end is com-
pleted, and if they're iv i widen-
ing it they're double-decking it
or re-routing it.
Or take cities There never was
that was finished and never
will be, although of course this
might I*' an argument proving
pi'ople should never start some-
thing they can't finish Some cities,
I understand, are in as bad u shape
as my fences
Conic to think of il, and revers-
ing my field, most arguments,
which can't lie finished, should
never have lieon started. They
wouldn't have been either il p -o-
ple followed my rule: take (losi-
tions hut never defend them,
Or take Viet Nam Some people
say il sltouldki't have Is-en started
because It can't Is- finished, and
there are others who twist the old
saying and say they don't want to
finish what somebody else started.
Me, I always take the middle
ground. If my neighbor* will take
care of my outside fences I'll take
care of my middle ones.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.
