THE FOURLEGGED STOOL
A FEW > eors ago solemn afterdinner speakers wore wont to
JUST
declaim that n business could not stand still it must gios or dwindle
This was so often repeated that a lot of folks whose common
onso should have shown them the fallacy of such a statement accepted
it as fact and forthwith raised the cry for greater sales or greater
production this month than last this year over preceding years This
to no small degree brought about production in excess of consumption
from which wo are still suffering and those who strove the hardest
to grow big are amogn the greatest sufferers
Why should not a business reach a proper and profitable size and
then continue without further expansion It requires no little effort
and business management to stand still to replace with new customers
those lost in the usual cjTcles of business change There is no likelihood
of growing fat and lazy through lack of action if a business is
to be maintained in status quo
Size In business is no measure of the quality of its product or its
senice The big firm is not invariably the best with which to deal In
no few cases tho contrary Is true
A twolegged stool is more comfortable than a onelegged stool but
lacks the balance of a threelegged stool Yet a threelegged stool lacks
the stability of a fourlegged stool But a fifth leg adds neither to the
stability of tho stool nor to the comfort of the sitter The same is true
ot business and a multiplicity of legs can weaken it rather than make
t more stable SV Ambassador

WHO OWES US A LIVING
ALT DISNEY recreator of the famous Three Little Pigs has anew
story out that of the Grasshopper and the hard working
Ants says the Hollywood Tribune ot Portland Oregon Its moral
deals with our present problems so completely that it is worthy of
serious consideration now
The story is about a Grasshopper who plays and sings all day
Oh The Woild Owes Me a Living He wastes his food and time and
is continually bothering the hardwcrking Ants who are laying awaj
food for the coming winter
Finally winter comes There is no food for our happy Giasshop
per Snow falls and our Grasshopper friend turns blue with cold lie
staggers to the door of the warm and happy Ants who drag him in and
thaw him out As the Grasshopper returns to normal he is informed
that all who eat the Ants food must work Dejected he is about to
leave when he is informed he may fiddle for his share Happy again
ho ends the story by singing Oh I Owe the World a Living
Have we been like the Grasshopper happy in the thought that
tho United States owes us a living Can the Government spend mil
it I nvpn billions of borrowed money without our having to pay
i T
V jke the Grasshopper in the fable can live as parasites for
it tlii liut a daji of reckoning inevitably comes precisely as the cold
weather follows the warm The public treasury is not a bottomless
pit and some chill morning we will awaken to find that the national
thero < song has changed to We Owe the World a Living

Forasmuch uu many have taken in hand to sot forth in order a
declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us
Even as they delivered them unto us which from the beginning
were jowitntsses and ministers of the word

SOCIETY
DOCKINS SHIEVERS
The many Swisher County
friends of Miss Cassie B Dockins
former manager of the hospital
here will be interested in learning
that she was married June 20
to S Murray Sliievers of New
Athens Ohio at Wellsburg West
Va This is the culmination of a
romance which had its inception
twelve years ago when Miss Dock
ins was state nurse of Ohio
Miss Dockins who was manager
of Richards Memorial Hospital at
Paducah since last September resigned
that position May 1st and
was at her home in Crowell resting
and looking after business interests
until June 1G when she
left for her future home in Ohio
Mrs Delia Hamilton who is also
well known in Tulia and her sister
Mrs O Harra of Pauls Valley
Okla accompanied her to St
Louis where she was met by Mr
Shlevers and his brother and wife
Mrs Hamilton and Mrs OHarra
will spend some time iu Chicago
visiting in the home of a brother
and the bridal party proceeded to
Wellsburg West Va wln re tho
couple was married in the presence
of a party of friend The

I wish I could tnko every one
of my readers through any of tho
great industrial laboratories with
which I am famlllnr and In which
I havo often wntched scientists
at work One of them employs
more than a thousand young men
each of whom has a university
Doctors degree in chemistry en
gineoring or philosophy and has
had to prove his ability to do original
research work before he
could get his job
They are very far from being
the doddering dodoes which tho
public imagines men of science to
be They are as keen human and
interesting a group of men as I
have even encountered anywhere
Thlr prime purpose is to find
wayrs to make the telephone work
faster better and cheaper But as
byproducts of their discoveries
such Inventions as talking pictures
chain broadcasting television
and many other things have
come out of that laboratory
PROGRESS a look back
I have little patience with the
common complaint that inventions
and machinery have brought the
world to ruin Exactly the opposite
Is true Who would bo content
to go back even to the days
of my own boyhood
I can remember when there
were no telephones no electric
lights nor electric power no airplanes
no motion pictures no
phonographs no typewriters no
I snw a notice posted in a Now
York subway car the other day
in which the Health Commissioner
pointed out that only 37 babies
died in the big city of diphtheria
last year whereas several thousand
died of it annually only a
few years ago Antitoxin has put
an end to this massacre of the
innocents
One by one in myj own time
I havo seen the scourges of man1
kind vanish under the advance of
medical science Smallpox bubonic
yellow fever malaria typhus typhoid
tuberculosis scarlet fever
all the long list of diseases that
took high toll of human lives when
I was a boy have been banished
or are rapidly being conquered by
the forward march of civilization
and the steady advance in medical
knowledge and public hygiene
measures
CANCER needs research
One of my friends lost his wifo
a tew mouths ago She had a cancer
The other day he told me that
he had been Inspired by that
tragedy to investigate the whole
subject of cancer and was surprised
to find that nothing that
could properly be called scientific
research by modern methods had
been undertaken into either tho
cause or the possible cure of this
most dreadful of all diseases
My friend is a man of scientific
training familiar with the methods
of the great research lahora
torles I am sure he said that
with three or four million dollars
available with which to hire competent
chemists biologists and
pathloglsts any of tho big industrial
laboratories could find tho
cause of cancer nnd a cure for Jt
in a few years
It is easier to get money with
which to do research that is expected
to result in morn money
than It Is whon nothijig more Important
thuu human lives Is involvedBLOOD four types
Tiie transfusion of blood from
one person to another has become
such an established method of
treatment in various conditions
that every Important hospital bus
u list of blood donors These
are men or women who nio willing
to part with a pint or more
of blood for a fee of 25 or so
Medical men learned through
this work of blood transfusion that
tliero aro four distinct types of
human blood and that it is necessary
to bo sure that tho donors
blood is of the surno typo as that
of tho patient These four types
aro known as O A and
ABTho tests for these blood types
