THE BRIGHT SIDE

The sun does not shine on the
back side of the moon and the
moon does not always show its
bright side to US. In the pro
cess of evolution human society
has come up out Of the darkness
of barbarism and has begun to
manifest the universally OF GER
tain laws of development and
progress. But there are por-
tons of human life on which the
sun never shines; there are 9th
ers that are constantly exposed
to the cheering influence of sun
shine, and some that alternate
between the sunshine and shad-
ow of peace and prosperity.
We are 80 constituted that in
our survey Of human life 1t is
possible for us to select the parts
to which we will give attention
and shut everything else out Of
the field of menta vision. We
may see the various parts of hu-
man life all dark, all light, or
parti-colored, according to our
disposition.
The process of evolution nee
essarily incISdes beginnings low
down in the brutal strata of ex-
istence with intermittent and ir-
regular accessions Of mental and
moral power. with struggles be-
tween the contending forces.
which are seeking equilibrium.
Right is often on the scaffold.
bat it is not always there; wrong
is often on the throne. but JUS
tice and wisdom have occupied
that high place. Lowell's words
have done much harm when they
were taken without the accom-
panying qualification that God
within the shadow was keeping
watch above his own. lnvesti-
cations that have been made by
anthropologists and archaeolo-
gists show that even thousands
of years ago there were perfect
communities which had settled
down to the enjoyment of pas
toral life without fear of the in
cursions of wild beasts or savage
men; they had no words for war
and no weapons of warfare.
In time such peaceful communi-
ties were invaded by hordes of
stalwart barbarians and over
whelmed by the brutal elements
which on other lines and in other
WAYS were blindlY feeling their
way toward the beginnings of
civilization.
Just now the whole world is
waking up from a condition
which a thousand years hence
will cause the century in which
we live to be described as the be-
ginning Of a renaissance. Dark
ages are passing. all the world
is being opened to the forces
which make her civilization. All

Learn to laugh. A good laugh

story is as welcome as sunbeam

your troubles TO yourself. The
world is too busy to care for
your ills and sorrows. Learn to
stop croaking. If you cannot

the bad to yourself. Learn to
hide your pains and aches under
a pleasant smile. No one cares
whether you have the headache.

cry. Tears do well enough in
novels but are out of place in re-
al life. Learn to meet your
friends with a smile. The good
humored man or woman is al
ways welcome. The world is a
land of echoes. the message we
call to it comes back to US from
every side. In truth we get out
of life what we put into it. =

ALCOHOL Is NOT KING

Inc use OF alc0h0l IS receiving
some hard knocks these days. A
prominent railroad system not
content with the general rule
heretofore in force on railways
forbidding employees to drink
while on duty, now forbids en-
ployes to indulge at all in drink
ing out of employment hours. or
in any other conduct that will
impair their health or make them
less alert and less capable while
on duty. The owner of one Of
the nations pets-a prominent
baseball team announces that
moderation 10 drinking is not
sufficient; the players on his
team must leave alcohol alone
and abandon cigarettes. The
justification for such rules may
be found not only in the, Difficult
ty of being moderate in lndul-
gence. but also in the cumula-
tive and after-effects of dissipa-
ton. The world is moving; the
old fetch of personal liberty"
at whatever cost Of danger to
the public at large seems to be
losing its power. The Journal
of the American Medical Asso-
citation thinks that the time may
come when every man to whom
the life and safety of others are
entrusted may be expected or
even required to be abstemious
as ball players and railway en-
ployes.
The attitude of the public to-
ward epidemics in past years has
been either one of mystery or of
panic. Pestilence has been re-
garded as something to placate
by magic or to flee from in ter
ror. But in the last half centu-
ry, disease has been largely
robbed of both its mystery and
its fearsoneness. We know it
lRcvas a woduct of natural
TS10ses >ssseAet and overcome
by common sense and expert
knowledge. The Importance of
social conditions in the production
of disease has been recognized.
as well as the public responsible
ity for its existence. The public
and the physician are now recog-
nized as co-workers IN the sup
preston of disease. Ii partners
IN this work, 1t is only fair that
both parties should know the
facts. and that, in times of cpl
demic disease. the public should
be told the whole truth. TINS
important obligation of the mod
ern health officer is recog nized
by DIR. Juan Guiteras, health
officer of Havana. In a recent
issue of the Journal of the Amer
lean Medical Association, in an
article on bubonic plague in Ha-
vana DIR. Guiteras condemns the
old policy of suppression of facts
and says: II have contended
for the following fundamental
rule in sanitary practice: Work
must b. done IN the broad day
light; the people should know
what we are doing and what to
expect. Ii we never deceive
them. they will believe what we
say; we obtain their cooperation.
we minimize panic. and we can
begin active operations at once.
All this is but the most element
al common sense; but. strange
to say. the general acceptance
of this golden rule has been slow
and difficult. Only last year the
presence Of cholera was conceal
ed in several communities. Such
deception was dangerous to the
infected region, and, to the I'M
infected neighhors. it was cruel

kAFFlR CORN SPECIAL
Demonstration Train to Cover
System to Exploit Value
Of Feed Crop.

According to advices received
at the general Offices of the Rock
Island railroad in Fort Worth
from H. M. Cottrell. agricultural
commissioner for that road. the
Rock Island will operate a kafiir
corn special train over its lines
in Texas about the first of Feb.
ruary. A definite date had not
been decided and the itinerary
has not been prepared, but II is
customary for such trains TO
stop at every town along the
lines.
The tour is planned for the
purpose of interesting the
farmers in the cultivation OF
kafiir corn and demonstrating
the large profit that has been
and may be realized from the
production of the GRIP.
Except in the Panhandle,
kaffir corn is not grown on the
Rock Island lines in Texas. Mr..
CotreIl declares that ten bushels
OF kaffir corn has the same value
as nine bushels of corn for feed
ing work horses, beef aid dairy
cattle. hogs and sheep and that
it will produce at least twice as
many bushels to the acre as
corn.
The Rock Island is devoting a
large sum of money and time 10
exploiting the production of
kaffir corn along its entire sys-
TEN. One of the special de-
monstration trains was sent
over the Texas lines in April.
1911.
The agriculture department of
the road issues a monthly agri-
cultural journal, The Southwest
Trail, which is mailed free to
patrons who are interested in
subjects handled by the paper.
Tens of thousands of copies are
issued every month. Crop re-
ports are published and every
means ef Cooperation with the
farmer is employed. Kaffir seed,
as well as information regarding
It's culture is furnished by the
road.

DURANGO COTTON IS new
TO THE WORLDS MARKETS

The Durango type of cotton is a new
one, and is not well known by many
cotton growers.
At an exhibition of cotton in St
Louis four years ago government
cotton expert was attracted by a mere
handful of seed, which had come from
Durango, Mexico. Nothing was known
of the type, but the expert manag ged
TO obtain a small quantity for expert
mental purposes.
This handful Of seed, under the
care of government enthusiasts, has
grown TO 100 tons of seed, 60 to 20
tons being planted in this valley.
Thus the newest cotton country has
practically the entire supply of the
newest cotton-the longest staple and
best paying of the American varieties
But the growers of the valley are
not satisfied with a mere 60 per cent
of the available supply. They are de

manding more. The Imperial Valley
Cotton Growers association at present
has demand for Is tons more than the
supply.
Texas has 25 tons of seed of this
type of cotton, and the Imperial valley
cotton growers have been offered this
seed.
The association is endeavoring to
sell the remaining 10 tons, and if this
can be done the Texas supply can be
secured for the valley.
If farmers interested in this great
cotton will communicate with C. H.
Barton, secretary of the Cotton Grow =
ers' Exchange, they will aid in the eff
fort to corner the market and make
Imperial valley sole producer of this
high class crop, materially benefitting
themselves and the cotton business of
the valley.
