a remarkable success. In addition to the neat farms and gardens

striking experiment in this country TO turn Jewish labor to agri
culture. The Jews were originally a pastoral nation, and it would
be of great benefit to the country, as well as to the race, if the
many thousands that are herded on the New York East Side and
in city ghettOes generally could be translated to the agricultural
sections. They would make South Jersey blossom like a rose

sides, you never heard of a person worrying about
a thing that came out as that person feared it would.
l know there is a difference between anxiety and worry
and a big margin between fear and precaution.
There are two kinds of worry. One, self-inhicted
and that inflicted by ourselves. Do you know that
there are some forty million people in the United
States who are letting people worry them to death.
Iti a fact. Just look around among your friends.
There is another who is letting his domestic affairs
worry him and so on down the line.

is a salesman, representing a book house. He is max
ing a big success and his friends CD get Jealous and
start to worry him. How? Easy.

RACE ISSUE IN
SOUTH AFRICA

tuition for the new federation of states in South Africa he would
leave the race question to be settled by the new state itself, with
out imperial interference. To the same conclusion the American
nation has come, after many years of controversy, in respect to
the race question in the South. Mr.. Balfour has witnessed the
utter failure of all attempts by Congress to fix the political and
social status of the Southern blacks, and he is conscious of the
greatly changed sentiment of the North on the subject. The
example is Illuminating at this time for British craftsmanship.
South Africa has a greater problem to deal with than ours, but
its solution cannot be helped in London, while the constant inter
ference of British sentimentality would greatly retard it and prob
ably bring on a bloody race war.

the greatest wealth producers, but the country has done well all
along the line. No wonder the capitalists are sitting up and tax
ing notice and that the railroads are straining their financial re-
sources to get the facilities with which to cope with the enormous
traffic that is impending. The panic occurred when the business
of the country was healthy and prosperous, and the depression
that followed was only a suspension of activity. The wheels of
national progress were clogged by a sudden and unreasonable loss
of confidence. That clog was removed last spring, and business
and industrial prosperity has gone on since at an accelerating
pace. The wonderful crops, adding more than eight billions of
new wealth, open up new vistas of prosperity, and we are on the
eve of perhaps the greatest era in our history, without a single
cloud in the national horizon.
