Well of course we knew it and you knew

test of circulation and community value
that the Rogers classification required.
Only three papers in Florida passed, and
are included in the list: one in Tampa, one
in Jacksonville-and The Pensacola

UNCLE SAM PAYING TWICE.

In many state army camp, as well as III
border camps, Uncle Sam is now paying
a second time for preparedness tor
which he has already paid once.
In return for certain amount Of drill
and target practice, Uncle Sam has been
accustomed to provide the militia organiza-
tons of the states with funds for certain
equipment.
For years he has kept his side of the bar
gain.
Has he received fair return in drilled
men? .....
He has not |. T..
Yet when he called out the national
guard in the Mexican difficulty, he was
justified in supposing that he had body
of soldiery fully equipped, at least partially
trained, and ready to mobilize.
He has relied for generations on this kind
of preparedness. - ...'
And the result, as he discovered when he
made the recent demand, was much as if
he had builded fort on quicksand.
Not that the rank and file of the men were
at fault, Every community knows the high
| quality of its volunteer militiamen 1t is the
state political sgrafters who. know best
where Uncle Sans money has gone.
1t will now take six months time and
an expense of millions to make over 48 1t
tie armies into real army for the patro!
of the Mexican border
The war cloud has faded, and all good
patriots rejoice-even while they pay the
big bill for this most surprising lesson in
the nations unpreparedness.
If we learn that lesson now, it may save
us deep disgrace before the nations of the
world, some day.

DO YOU FEAR HAPPINESS

2 Remember o. ,Henry,s neuresthenic?
The one who, just as soon as he began to
feel. normally content with the world said
to himself: This won't do. I'm a sick
man. What right have to be happy?
Well, be assured O. Henry took that
character from real life.
There's the business man who pauses in
the midst of unparalleled prosperity to IN
dulge fear of slump when the war ends.
There's the mother who with her chill
dren rosy-cheeked and chubby-limbed,
shudders at the cold they are sure to have
next winter. .
There's the man with good job who
can't shake off the thought that a younger
chap will push him out ten years hence.
There's the young wife who wonders if
John will love her when her hair turns gray
And there's John himself, who is convinced
young wife will be cheated out of his life
insurance in case of his death.
The fear of unhappiness is no more wide
spread than the fear of happiness. Thous-
ands and thousands of well-fed, we'll
clothed, well-housed folk fortunate in their
work and in their friends, seem to regard
their well-being as sort Of a charm that
d
give way to rejoicing. They are afraid to
be happy. -.-..r.. ~.
Now you can point out an elevator shaft
and say to man: Don't fall down that
shaft" But obviously it isn't so easy to say
don't to thought, habit of mind. Re-
solving not to think certain thought may
serve only to fix that thought all the deeper
in the mind
And so, if you would erase fear thoughts
from your mind, you must reject the don't
resolution and adopt the do" You must
entertain those positive thoughts that, OF
themselves, contradict your fears. You
must resolve to have confidence in the
future. You must resolve to have faith,
without which all the good fortune in the
world cannot make you happy.
The deluge may indeed descend. If faith
has made you brave, you will build yourself
an ark. But if on the other hand lack oil
faith has made you coward, even ready.
built ark wont help you. In the fear it will
sink, you'll refuse to board it.
Afraid of happiness? Faith, active, posi-.
tive belief that the good of the present is

THE UBIQUITOUS AUTO.

There is motor car for every mile of
rural road in the United States.
That's the average.
In Nevada, however, YOU will pass
motor vehicle only twice in six miles, while
on New Jersey roads you will pass or be
passed by an auto six times in every mile.
If everybody in the United States would
take to riding in autos at one time forty
tour persons would have to jam in every
car
But if you happened to live in Iowa,
there would be only sixteen in your car,
while if your abode was in Alabama. you
would travel with 200 other persons.
Ten years ago the income from auto fees
was less than three-tenths of one per cent
of the total expenditure on roads, but last
years fees betrayed nearly Z per cent of the
total cost of road building.
