As concerns ‘‘women's club work
she said the principal worry of
such clubs is where to seat the
past-presidents. “The trouble is
that all the members want to be

president, they want to be hon-

They act like a lot of umpty-ump

Nothing is continuous but
cliange. The human .mind moves
fiom old accomplishments to new

the fhagic wdnd of imagination.
Every new idea must battle for
its life agamel the unimaginative
mass of humahity. Umbrellas
j were first condemned “as at-

I intent that rain, should fall on
| Hts children,” says Ray Giles in
his new book, ‘/Turn Your lmag-
| ination into Money.” In 1828, in
Lancaster, Ohio, a school board
refused to allow some boys to de-
bate the merits of the new rail-
road in the school house because
“railroads and telegraphs are im-
possible and rank infidelity. If
God had designed that His intel-
ligent creatures should travel at
the frightful spedd of -fifteen
miles an hour by steam, He
would... have clearly foretold it
through HIT*holy" prophets.”
City ordinances were passed j
against bath tubs and bathing in
America two hundred years ag-
and Ihe first street-lighting sys- |
Lem in Berlin was opposed less j
than a hundred years ago, says
Charles M. Eassert in "Assets of
the Ideal City,” “as a presump- j
tuous thwarting of Providence
which had appointed darkness for
the hours of .night”
Sixty years ago a Massachu-
settes Senator opposed an appro-
priation for the Patent Oliice on
the grounds that everything the
human mind could conceive ol !
liad already been invented. Since!
then we have had the modern j
electrical wizardry, the automo- I

• EARLY FORECASTERS.
The ~ annual prediction that
“the fruit erdp has been killed”
came a good deal earlier this
year than usual. Ordinarily we
never hear it until along ifi May,
with an unexpected snowstorm in
the middle west in April, it was
here weeks ahead of time.
Sensible Teague housewives
will not waste time worrying
over such reports. Seldom does
a lyear pass without fruit crops
being killed in some section of
the country, and yet it has been
a good many years since there
has been an actual shortage for
canning purposes. The fact that
the crop has been hit in some
sections does not mean that can-
ners will suffer. tAnd never
should there be any worry over
a probable shortage of vegeta-
bles. Be the time the home can-
ner gets lined up for action it
probably will be found that there
will be a plentiful supply, and
at prices in keeping with former
THOSE ON RELIEF.
Some figures covering the na-
tion’s relief rolls were given out
in Washington recently, and they
contain the surprising announce-
ment that by far the largest per
tentage of any class' on the re-
lief rolls are between the ages of
16 and 24. The average Teague
citizen, quite naturally supposes
that a vast majority of those
now “on relief” were .elderly per-
sons and thpse incapacitated for
work. It is not a very agreeablb
surprise, either, to learn that the
younger generation, . instead of
getting out and battling for their
own livelihood, and trying to
earn their own way, are content
to sit down and let the taxpayers
of the nation feed them. The
regrettable feature, however, is
that thousands of those between
16 and 24 will, finding at the
very start of their lives that
they can live without working,
refuse to do so in the future. It
is not a pleasant thing to con-
template, the vast army of shift-
less, human hoboes that will in-
fest thip country in the years to
come.

There is buried treasure all
about you. Think! Think! The
godlike quality of imagination is

new ideas will lead us to fame

Matchless rewards will come to

Begin, and then the work will be

Human nature is a! funny
thing. Most men will do more
talking about a sore toe than
they 'will about happiness.
Secondly, the church is an instru-
ment of collective prayer. To be
sure, many churches have ceased to
be houses of prayer,.and have gone
into the entertainment business.
There are ministers who will do al-
most anything to get a crowd.
They use sensational sermon titles
such as “Playing Golf with God,”
or “The Submarine Experiences of
Jonah.” Nevertheless the Society
of Christ does keep alive the flame
of corporate prayer.
Finally, the church is an ambas-
sador of both hope and warning.
Many today sound a defeatist note.
They are gloomy and afraid. The
church, by contrast, should be hope-
ful, high-spirited, with the radiance
of J esus, that star of hope, who, as
Canon Holland said, “crashed into
history with such terrific force that
he rent it in twain.”
But the church must warn as
well as cheer. It must prophesy
the certain collapse of an economic
structure permeated with greed. It
must seek to transform the prevail-
ing ethic of the market-place.
The trouble with a lot of fel-
lows hereabout . who rliim that
the world owes them a living is
that they want to be paid in ad-
vance for doing nothing.
