OUR AMERICAN
OPPORTUNITY.

It would not compliment us Am
orleans to have seen ourselves as Eu-
rope saw us before we entered the
war 1t might really do us good to
stand off now and judge ourselves as
a nation in the light of what we
have done.
We are full of indulgent mistakes
in taking our W measure. For a
long time we were thinking that there
existed no nation in the world but
would hesitate to inspire the wrath
of Uncle Sam. We knew what we
could do when reused up, but we
mistakenly thought the whole world
knew 1t.
One of our strangest ~fallacies has
been the idea that we are a gorge
ously openhanded nation. There have
have always been charity workers
among us. and missionaries getting
aid for downtrodden foreigners and
heather. This was our fallacy, which
is about to be annihilated. The
amount of money we r now going
to hand out will put all small dona-
tons in the shade. We have never
before sacrificed anything but sur
plus. Arrangements are now made,
apparently, which will begin to put, us
right with the civilized portions OF
Europe, and it is well.
Now that we have a standing across
the water, it won't hurt us a bit to

ed what sentimental folks call "aes-
thetic." A little farther on was an
open toilet that was anything else but
aesthetic. Nobody wants to know
what it was like, and none of the
neighbors can identify the flies that
came from there nor Ia they esti-
mate the length of their "wheel-base'
as they run forward and back and re-
verse, wiping their feet on the vic
tuals. There was a stable and pig
pens, and as they filled up with man
ure it was necessary for a man to
stoop or stand from under, and the
bottoms of doors were sawed off so
they would still open and shut. Weeds
flourished by the millions on the farm
and blew across the country among
the neighbors and lined the highway.
This man belonged to a church and
was probably better for it, but no.
body knows what he would have
been if he belonged to no church at
all.

LAZY BUNCH.

A lazy man works harder than eny-
body else, and he ought to. A lazy
man takes the way that looks the cas-
lest and Furnishes himself and every
body connected with him. Steer clear
of a lazy man.
Last summer a lazy pair had a
lease on one of the best farms in the
county. They leased some stock and
implements; pity the stock. One day
while moving hay n of them left
his team standing, too lazy to make
them secure, and they ran away and
ruined one of the animals. A SINH
lar thing happened when operating
the binder and there was a smashup
and much delay. The beet land was
so rich it produced fifteen to nine
teen tons per acre without any cult
walton, and they let the weeds get a
start. At beet digging time they took
q four-horse team and the beets were
so big and plentiful, they kept load
ing on beets until they had a load
and then some. The ground was mel
low and they piled on more beets till
1t finally sank to the axles. Then they
urged the willing horses until they
broke the wagon tongue out trying to
raise it by horse power. They got
another tongue and broke that to
pieces. Then they gave UP their lazi-
ness temporarily and went to work
unloading the wagon to get 1t out
right.
If they had been industrious and
not afraid of work they would have
ii N-l- 4al 1on< h m
moving, and saved repairs and de-
lays. They were too lazy to irrigate
the meadows at the right time and
the hay was short. If they had beer
alive and Industrious they could have
made a lot of money for themselves
and for their landlord, and they
could still have been operating the
place and enjoying it. They are wor'
rying someone else now, and working
hard trying to avoid work.
