Effects Of Weather.
~ JOHN ID. BARRY.

1
The most serious effect of weather is its practi
cal aspect.
To many people it means either prosperity. OF
suspension of prosperity, maybe bare sufficiency
or distressful insufieiency.
In most instances it is, of course, good weathel
that carries prosperity.
Farmers love good weather. but not always
and not all kinds of good weather.
What we call good weather the farmers may
call bad weather.
Even those of us who live mainly in cities arc
pretty keenly alive to the needs of the farmer. We
think of him, and we even speak of him when we
have had long succession of days of sunshine,
without drop of rain.
We are concerned because the farmers are con-
cerned.
And we aren't nearly SO unselhsh about our
concern as we may SEEM
For we know that our well-being is closely
associated with the farmers wcll-being.
1t is weather that gives the farmers life its
most sensational interest," perhaps its only sensa-
tional interest
Into what would seem to be one of the most
healthy of human occupations it introduces the
element of gambling
l know man who farms on a large scale.
In year he may make profit of many
thousands of dollars The next year he may lose
many thousands.
And yet he will work just hard year as
in the other year and probably display sound
judgment.
He often jokingly remarks that he can't figure
out whether he is going to die rich poor.
What is more important is that he can't tell
whether the time will come when he will be
forced into bankruptcy.
He lives under a continual threat.
Now. for most people, living under threat is
But this particular seems to thrive.
Some people actually like living under threat
1t gives life kind Of zest for them.
To gamblers living under threat works like
a stimulant.
But for all such stinulaht people have TO pay.
For most of us. prosaic people the less have
of threat in lives the better.
It's only the threat face and defy and
beat down that is good for u.s.
That kind of threat may stimulate to our
best endeavor.

Editor Morning Journal
1t has been stated in the public
press that influential legislators favor
the plan to make use Of st. Anthony's
orphanage at Albuquerque. making
1t in all practical effect state insti-
tuition" by authorizing county officials
TO levy taxes and appropriate public
funds for that purpose. Is such
course advisable or proper? II has
already been shown. by the able arti-
Gle of Rev. Lallance, that the orphan
children Of the state have been prop
erly cared for through the Childrens'
Home society, which furnishes a home
in good families for every orphan,
either boy or girl, who is without
care This institution is non-sectar-
ian and supported entirely by private
contributions 1t seems TO the writer
that there are a great many obiec-
tions to the appropriation OF public
funds to st. Anthonys orphanage:
one is that the orphans are being well
taken care of by a non-sectarian as
ISOLATION without expense to the ov-
erburdened taxpayer; another is that
such law is only an attempted eva
sion of the constitutional provision
forbidding such appropriations to pri
vate or sectarian institutions No
principle is better settled than that
taxes should be levied only for public
and not for private or sectarian pur-
poses and that public funds should be
spent for public purposes and under
the direction OF some public official
officially responsible to the state,
one OF the cardinal principles of
American government is the separa-
ton of church and state. Under our
form of government there is no legis-
latlve power to support any church,
however worthy it's objects The leg
islature might Just as well levy taxes
to support a particular church as to
levy taxes to support the institutions
which that church governs. In this
connection it is important to remem-
her that our recent legislatures APP
proprlated for the support of private
and sectarian Institutions for the years
1912, 1913 and 1914 the enormous
sum Of 100000.
How many know this? How many
know what institutions they are2 BY
what authority is such use made Of
the public funds2 II public funds were
used only for public purposes, there
would be less cause for complaint of
lack of funds for the support OF our
public institutions.
