THE BALANCED MAN.
Responding to the address of wel-
come in the meeting of the Mid-Tex
Teachers Association held in Brown-
wood last Friday, Mr. C. H. Hufford,
superintendent of Coleman city
schaota, said in part:
“Speaking for the association, I ac-
cept the challenge to take up voca-
tional training in the schools. * *
There are two types of men. One is
the well educated man in higher learn-
ing, and from this type comes the man
who follows this theorist. We want
a third man who will unite the well-
developed man and theorist; who will
make a living and not a life. We want
a man for the balanced home and the
man who will make a balanced na-
tion.”

A new com insect has been discov-
ered by the Department of Agricul-
ture hibernating underground in
Southwest Texas and Ney? Mexico.
It is described as a borinjr caterpillar
and has been identified by the bureau
as “diatraea lineolata walker.” If the
thing lives up to its name it will be a
cutter.

Union painters of Fort Worth vol-
untarily lowered their wage scale last
Friday from $8.50 an eight hour day
to $7.00. Union iron workers of that
city also announced a voluntary wage
cut from $10 to $8 a day. That may
help some, but the world will, even-
tually, starve itself to death oh an
eight hour work day.

The ruling of a New Jersey bank
economics says, op this subject:-
“There is much talk of the desir-
ability of immigration to settle vacant
lands and to back up new irrigation
schemes that will bring into the mar-
’ ' hundreds of thousands of desert
s. These new schemes are not
>rtant at this time to anyone but
promoters. We do not need these
additional acres under cultivation; we
do not need new hordes of alien set-
tlers; we do not need new lands open-
ed to cultivation when American far-
mers are now selling their products at
a loss, or leaving them in the fields
to rot, or are burned for fuel on ac-
count of lack of a market.
“The farmer needs-—and America
needs—to have its vacant land' held
in reserve and only put under irriga-
tion and t+a/plow as it is required to
feet! our population without depress-
ing prices below cost of production, as
is now the case. Our present frenzy
for “development" is glutting our
markets, impoverishing farmers and
robbing American children of their
rightful inheritance of new lands.

J. Willis Johnson of San Apgelo hap.
a shiny condensed milk can on his of-
fice desk which he took out of the jaw
of the skeleton of a cow which he
found on the range a few days ago.
Mr. Johnson says that tin cans kill
thousands of cattle on the ranges of
West Texas every year. The cattle,
he says, chew on the cans and get
them fastened in their jaw, finally
strangling them. Mr. Johnson be-
lieves that the lives of at least a
thousand cattle could be saved each
year if campers and piekniekers would
be more careful not to leave tin cans
in West Texas pastures.

Government revenues for the month
of January, the first month under the
new revenue law, showed a deficit of
$65,000,000, compared with January
1921. Collections on liquor taxes in-
creased $50,000, on tobacco $492,000.
Treasury statisticians estimate that
the slump in revenue will reach $750,-
000,000 for the year.

In an address on the race question
delivered in Chicago last Friday, R.
H. Morton, head of Tuskegee Institute,
successor of the late Booker T. Wash-
ington, stated that “the South is ac-
complishing more in establishing bet-
ter relations between the whites and
negroes than is the North.” While
the South does not recognize racial
equality, the negro’s place is being
fnade secure and he is given justice,
said Morton.
The withdrawal of O. B. Colquitt
from the Texas senatorial race leaves
eight contenders, viz. Clarence Ousley,
Senator (’has. A. Culberson. Earl B.

son, Cullen F. Thomas and Sterling

ries the following sign: "Riding in a

Mount Vesuvius, which destroyed |
figures of 1916.
There are 233,104 congregations,
manned by 200,090 ministers, in the
country which is an increase of 5,617
congregations and 8,204 clergy over
the Government figure for 1916.
Commenting on reports that a min-
isterial shortage prevails, the Council
pointed out that the increase in clergy
has been approxirfintely 50 per cent
more than the increase in the congre-
gations, explaining that the difference
of 33,014 between ministers and con-
gregations does not indicate a corres-
ponding shortage of pastors, as many
ministers, especially in the rural dis-
tricts, have charge of two or, more
churches. \
Roman Catholics made a member-
ship and adherents gain in the last
five years of 2,163,831, and have 17,-
885,646 of the 45,997,199 persons in
the United States listed officially as
church members. There are 16,580
Roman Catholic churches, manned by,
21,648 priests, in this country.
The Latter Day Saints (Mormons)
reported a membership of 587,918, an
increase of 113,000 over the 1916 cen-
sus figures. Jews numbered 1,120.-
000.
For the first time on record, the
Baptists have passed the Methodists
in total membership, the former’s
membership being placed at 7,835.250
persons and the latter’s at 7,797,991
persons. The Lutherans, with a mem-
bership of 2,466,645, and the Presby-
terians, with 2,384,683 members, stand
third and fourth respectively.
The Methodist Episcopal Church
(North), the largest single Protestant
communion, has a membership of 3,-
938,665, a gain in the last year of 02,-
595 persons and an increase of 220,-
870 over the 1916 figures. The Meth-
odist Episcopal Church (South) with
a membership of 2,346,067, gained
231,588 members since the 1916 census
was taken, 93,315 of which came with-
in its fold last year. The Protestant
Episcopal Church, apparently recov-
ering from its war loss, gained 11,208
members in the last five years, and
now has a membership of 1,104,029
persons, aft increase of 7,134 since last
\*ar.
An interesting fact noted by the
Council is the apparent stagnation of
the Salvation Army, whose reported
membership of 35,969 is an increase
of only sixty-five persons over the
figures of five yeaiAfigo.
The Northern Baptist Convention
has a membership of 1.253,878 persons
and Southern Baptist Convention has
a membership of 3,199,005. The lat-
ter hotly made a gain of 293,968 mem-
bers, the largest made by any single
communion. The National Baptist
(negro) show an increase of 177,746
persons. Fourteen other Baptist bod-
ies show a loss of 7.687.

Ft. Worth Record: Settlers in the
west fifty years ago realized the ne-
cessity of providing shelter over the
great plains against blizzards and
other damaging winds and weather.
In consequence there was a general
and wide-spread planting of trees,
both about the farm houses and along
the fence lines, and today, from Texas
to the Dakotas and where few trees
were to be found when the buffalo
roamed the plains row upon row of
trees may be seen. But there appears
to have been a hiatus in tree planting.
The task should never stop,.but should
grow year after year. Where one tree
ia planted this year, there should be
two trees next year and a larger num-
ber each succeeding year.
Brownwood News: The State Of
Texas has just borrowed $700,000 to
pay the running expenses of the State
|iemtent igrie*. Here is an abun-
dance of free labor, and, with costly
and fertile farms at their command,
they cannot be made to support them-
selves. Inf spite of, this example,
there are still people who believe the
government could operate the rail-
roads and coal mines at a profit.
Ballinger Banner Ledger: There ia
reason in atl things. And often there
ia much unreasonableness in some
things. A noted New York preacher
denounces the entire movie world be-
cause of the exposure of the unclean
lives let! by some of the highly paid
stars. We might with equal justice
condemn and denounce the ministry,
the medical or legal professions, or
almost any other profession or calling
in life because of the few black sheep
which they contain.

We are duly shocked at the rihght of
the Minnesota women though, for a
moment our own Texas women are
protected from the liklihood of a sim-
ilar experience by the ruling which
bars them from lurv service.
Brownwood News: Austin dis-
I patches announce that the Federal
' maternity law has been accepted by
Governor Neff for Texas, which means
that the Legislature of Texas will
pass a measure for an annual approp-
riation. fi^im the State treasury to
meet a like appropriation from the
Federal treasury, and this money will
be dispensed by placing maternity
agents in the various counties of the
State. Thus the force of government
agents are gradually increasing, and
they are increasing without the know-
ledge or the consent of people who
are taxed to support them. This sys-
tem of flooding the country with gov-
ernment agents is called progressive
democracy—that system of politics
which builds up a tax drain nguinst
which the people have neither voice
nor protection.

Baird Star: The States are rapid-
ly losing the rigtyt to control State
affair*. The Federal Government has
at last usurped the right to control
both interstate qnd intrastate railroad
rates, but the most vicious law ever
proposed in Congress ia the Dyer
Anti-lynching law, that imposes a fine
of ten thousand dollars on each coun-
ty for allowing a prisoner lynched. If
that bill becomes a law, it is almost
certain to lead to “firmed conflict be-
tween the Federal and State authori-
ties, or, at any rate, armed conflict
between Federal officers who attempt
to enforce the laws ami the taxpayers
of any county in any State.
