neglected golden opportunities. 1t
has opened bright vista of human
possibilities. 1t has indicated to us
in conclusive way what we can do
to redeem the neglect of the past.
War has done more. 1t has aroused
the people of America to the necessi-
ty of being at all times active and
useful and thrifty.
War is not season of want or of
adversely or of deprivation 1t is an
economic season, when we are called
upon to avail ourselves of our posi-
hilities and to live prudcntly. Above
all things, it has demonstrated that
there is no longer desire on the part
of the American man for the bread of
idleness.

THE BREAD OF IDLENEss
(Memphis Commercial AppeaD

NMempnlS commercial AppeaD
With commendable cheerfulness
the men and women of America are
passing through season of readjust-
ment. Our methods of living are un-
dergoing radical changes. Luxuries
that were once regarded as necessi-
ties are being dispensed with and no
perceptibe suffering is shown in con-
sequence.
The bread of idleness has lost its
flavor The idler today finds himself
an outcast. He is stunned by socie-
ty The great principle of life, that
we must live by the sweat of the
brow is being impressed upon the
people as 1t has never been impressed
before.
We are wrong to call this a season
of adversely. 1t is not, but even If it
was it is we'll known that without ad.
versity man hardly knows whether
he is honest or not, for adversely is
the first path to truth. However, we
cannot consistently say that this is a
season of adversely; rather it is a sea-
son of self-denial,. Of frugality, of
economy. Of a sane and sensible way
| of living.
Strange as it may seem, the youth
who has heretofore enjoyed the bread
of idleness and has been content for
his father or some one else to foot his
bill, has, without being urged, uncon-
sciously sought to make himself. use
full. Idleness no longer attracts. He
feels the responsibility of the times,
and also a desire to do something,
even If 1t does not amount to very
much
The man who is able to employ
himself usefully is never miserable.
To be idle and rich during the war
period is a reproach; to be idle and
poor is a crime
This new spirit which has been Gre
ated through the necessities of war
has made itself felt even among the
children. Idleness among the young
is the nurse of naughtinsss. In
homes and schools children are man.
ifesting a desire to mix their play
with periods of usefulness. The de-
sire to help Is widespread It has
swept the country. 1t has revolu-
toned the ways of living.
The bread of idleness is no longer
to be found on the market. Since>the
belief has grown that the United
States is to redeem and emancipate
the civilized world every one who
lives beneath the folds of the Flag,
rich or poor, feels an individual re-
sponsibility in helping bring about
this divine consummation.
If you are idle you are on your way
to ruin, and there are few stopping
places upon it. BY natures law, i'm
mutable and just, man must make use
of the ability that is his birthright.
His position may be the most hum
Bile, but it is never so lowly that he
cannot find some useful way in which
he may employ his time.
This war has done much for us. II
! has taught US that we have been a
wasteful people. 1t has shown US
that we can live comfortably on less
than we lived on before, 1t has prov
en- that we can easily do without
those things that we heretofore
thought to be indispensable. 1t has
driven home the fact that we have
