How To Tell If You
Are Out Of Place
Washington.— Lack of vocational
twining was blamed for youthful
rtf— by Edward T. Franks, vice
of the Federal Board for
WM^tional Education, in a recent ad-
■ to the fifth annual Internation-
al’ Work Council, the National
Study Council, Washington,
C., announces.
An ever increasing number of
young people are finding their way
Into prison cells because the voca-
tional side has been omitted from
their educational program, he said,
and parents are primarily to blame
for this condition.
It is nothing less than criminal for
parents to say to their children, "we
hope that you won’t have to work
like we did,” Mr. Franks declared.
"It is sad commentary,” he con-
tinued, “for a boy when Jie graduates
from high school today and you ask
him what he can do, when he answers
1 can’t do anything.’ It is pathetic.
The records show that 36 per cent of
the inmates of prison today are und-
er 18 years of age. How parents can
sit idly by and raise their children in
idleness when the great crime wave
is sweeping them off their feet into
the prison of the country at such an
alarming rate is beyond our under-
standing. Such parents should not
be honored with the blessing of chil-
dren.”
Elaborating this theme, Mr Franks
urged the early vocational training
of children to avoid later "misfits in
human energy.” He also urged the
desirability of stressing the fact that
all work well done is honorable.
Other speakers included Noel Sar-
gent, secretary of the National As-
sociation of Manufacturers; Dr. John
A. Lapp, Marquette University, and
John M. Shaw, Iowa State Agricul-
tural College.
Newspapers Are
Most Effective
Announcement has been made by
the president of a tobacco company
that it will spend 112,300,000 in ad-
vertising its principal brand of cig-
arette. That is a lot of money for a
single company to spend for adver-
tising in one year. As a fact, the ex
penditure appears to be intended to
retain a popularity already won.
Of the total, $6,600,000 will be
paid to the newspapers throughout
-the country, and $1,200,000 to the ^
magazines, the announcement explain
ing that “this division of our adver-
tising budget is based on the con-
tinued experience of the company
with large scale advertising, which
has satisfactorily demonstrated that
newspapers offer the most effective
medium of appeal.” Can anything be
more convincing than experience?—
Exchange.
HONESTY IN REPAIRING
You am out of place if your work
is drudgery to you; if you don’t love
it your heart is not in it.
If you hate to think you must go
to work in the morning and watch
the clock all day long for the time to
quit.
If you don’t regard your job as
your best friend and see the possibi-
lities in it for larger things.
If you are in doubt as to whether
you quite fit it.
If you are ashamed of your job,
and don’t want people to know how
you get your living.
If you find the best part of your
salary in your pay envelope, and not
out side of it—in your chance to
make good, in your opportunity to
learn the secrets of your employers
success and be paid for doing it.
If you are trying to be an artist
instead of an artisan in your work,
a professional instead of an amateur.
If, as the years go by, you don’t
feel your life growing richer, your
horizon constantly broadening.
If your work does not call into
play yaur highest faculties, your re-
sourcefulness, your ingenuity.
If your job is not calling out of
you the best that is in you; if every
drop of blood in you and every fiber
does not say “Amen” to it—then
you are out of place.—Ex.
The Symptoms
OfThe “Flu”
If you ever find on waking that
your every bone seems breaking, and
your measely head is aching and liv-
er’s on the rack, and you have that
tired feeling, while your dizzy brain
is reeling and a chill is softly stealing
up the region of your back; and you
have bad dreams- while sleeping,
while the germs within your keeping
here and there are gently creeping,
rib, shoulder, knee and shank; and
you merely wheeze when speaking
and your eyes with tears are reeking,
and your blamed old nose is leaking
like a railroad water tank; while
your fveer never levels, but within
you roars and revels, and a million
fiendish devils gaily scamper over
you; though the silence is unbroken
and no mortal word is spoken, these
to you will be a token that you’ve got
the cussed flu!—Ex.

Htty Years Of Crime
Some time ago Clarence Harrow,
on being asked about our crime prob-
lem, said that “during my half-cen-
tury of practice, society has made no
material advance in treatment of
crime and the criminal.”
His opinion is in striking contrast
with the activities of reformers who
spend much of their time devising
"cures” for the disease of crime.
In that half-century of which Mr.
Darrow speaks, thousands of crimi-
nal laws have gone on the statute
books. Panaceas have been offered,
and many of them accepted. And
yet crime continues and flourishes.
Every new law passed means more
law-breaking.
The number of people, for example,
who have been made law-breakers
by such ordinances as those designed
to prevent ownership of revolvers
and pistols, cannot be estimated. Yet
such laws are proposed to “prevent
crime. But who ever heard of a crim
inal paying any atention to anti-gun
law? An anti-automobile law would
be as sensible, the theory that if au-
tomobiles were taken away from all
law-abiding citizens, the criminal
would thereby be deprived of their
use in his depredations.
Mere mutiplicity of laws do not
deter the criminal. He will have his
gun and his automobile though the
statute books sag with enactments
forbidding him those commodities.
“Freak” laws make laws less respect-
ed.
We need fewer laws with sharper
teeth to punish criminals, if we wish
to check crime; not more laws to de-
stroy rights and privileges of law-
abiding citizens.

Notice To Fanners
There has been several different
ones spoken to me about smut treat-
ment for seed oats. I would advise
the dry method which consists of 1
pint of commercial Formaldehide
mixed with 1 pint of water. This
will treat 40 bushels of oats. Take a
sprayer and spray them good as
they are being scooped into the wag-
on. Take your time and be sure that
you get some of the spray on all of
them. Cover with wagon sheet to
hold the fumes down and go to sow-
ing at once.

This story is credited to Mr. Mack
of Melissa: A heifer calf which he
sold to Mr. Evans of Woodlawn was
lost not long ago and was found
twenty days later, having been with-
out food and water for that length of
time. The calf had become a pet of
Mrs. Evans, and its disappearance
caused her considerable worry. Mr.
Evans after a fruitless search gave it
up, thinking that it had been stolen.
But Mrs. Evans insisted on continu-
ing the hunt. One morning as she
was near the creek which runs
through her place, the little dog that
was following her found the calf,

Rabbit Fever A
New Disease
The United States Public Health
Service effectively calls attention to
the menace of a new and strange
disease by announcing that there are
now 226 cases of tularaemia, common
ly called “rabbit fever” in the state
of Nevada, which has a population of
only 76,000.
The disease is transmitted to hu-
man beings from wild rabbits. The
infection comes through handling and
dressing the infected carcases. There
is no danger after the carcases have
been kept in cold storage for a time,
and none after the meat is cooked.
The disease is marked by ulcers on
the hands and glandular swelling at
the joints, with fever which confines
the victim to bed for several weeks.
The ratio of mortality is not large,
according to the Health Service, only
23 deaths occurring in 614 recently
reported cases.
The Service warns hunters and oth-
er persons handling wild rabbit car-
cases to take care in handling them.
The safest way is to wear gloves
when dressing them. By all meanB
make sure that there are no cuts or
wounds, large or small, as it is only
through lesions of the skin that the
infection may enter.
H. D. Philpott, 79 years, 5 months
and 9 days old, died at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. Gabe Green, at
Allen, at 4:15 o’clock Saturday after-
noon, January 12, following a linger-
ing illness of about four years.
Funeral services for the deceased
were held at the Allen Christian
Church, of which the deceased was a
member, Sunday afternoon at 2
o’clock, conducted by Rev. A. L.

The deceased was born in Cumber-
land, Kentucky, August 3, 1849. He
had been a resident of Texas for
fifty-one years, and had lived in Col-
lin County for about twenty-five
years. Before moving here, he and
his family had made their home in
Palo Pinto county. Before moving to
Allen, he had resided at Van Al-
styne, Melissa, and Plano.
The wife of the deceased died 46
years ago while they lived in Palo
Pinto county. A son also proceed-
ed his father to the grave. The de-

Cream Business

Frank Lenore, proprietor of the
Garland Cream station, reports the
shipment of cream through his sta-
tion as increasing steadily. He re-
ports that he is now paying out from
$30 to $350 per week to the dairy
farmers of this section, and that
more farmers are becoming interest-
ed in farm dairying.

Farm Labor Problem
The Harris bill, which practically
excludes Mexican common labor from
the United States, has been unan-
imously reported for passage at
Washington.
The common labor supply on farms
in the southwestern part of the
United States is a serious problem
and Mexican labor which comes in to
harvest the seasonal crops and which
returns to Mexico when the rush is
over, seems to be the principal source
of supply. It is estimated that 70,000
such laborers are used each year,
while under the proposed legislation
this number would be cut down to
about 1200.
It is stated by persons in authority
who have dealt with Mexican labor,
that it does not compete with White
labor and that biologically and other-
wise it is preferable to Philippine,
Porto Rican and Negro labor. In the
sugar fields, in mines and on the
railroad section gangs in the semi-
arid sections of the Southwest no oth-
er labor seems able to stand the heat
as well as the Mexicans.
The problem is a serious one and
deserving of the fullest investigation
and consideration free from preju-
dice or political pressure.
