THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS.

On the day after Christmas
most people pick up the wrapping
paper and string scattered about
and ask themselves whether they
really had as much joy and pleas
ure from giving and receiving OF
gifts as they ought to have had.
They know that those to whom
they gave, liked and appreciated
the spirit which led to the giving,
but did they like the gifts? The
overflowing ash barrels, the
crowd around the exchange coun-
ters in the stores and additional
packages ON the top shelves OF
used closets and attics give the
answer in many cases.
1t is less trouble and less effort
to give sensible and useful and
appropriate gifts than those
which will bring neither profit
nor qualification to the recipient
No matter for whom the gift Is
designed nor how expensive OF
inexpensive you desire to make
it, government savings securities
will supply the giver's needs anC
the receivers wants. Thrift
stamps, war savings stamps

FERTILE FIELDS FOR DEMA
GOGUES.

There were 100000 men il
the American army. OF these
l,023,0O0 were illiterate. One out
of eevry four men could not read
or write. OF the white soldiers
2l.5 per cent cotld not read OF
write; of the colored soldiers
500 per cent could not read or
write, says the Manufacturers
Record
The alphabet is the keystone OF
civilization. The ability to employ
it differentiates man from the
brute. The unframed brain is a
high-powered automobile loose in
heavy traffic without driver.
There is no danger comparable,
perhaps, to that of power undis-
ciplined. And that is just what
every human brain is when un-
taught,
We do not believe that the fault
lies wholly in inadequate appro-
priations for education. There is
no man living in this country
now who cannot get at least a
rudimentary education if he
wants it. The right to vote and
kindred privileges have been be-
slowed as matter Of course on
men, whether they have fitted
themselves properly to exercise it
or not There has not been the
driving necessity for an education
that there should have been. The
penalties for ignorance should
have been greater than they were.
But, be the cause what it may
the one sure fact is that this ma
tion cannot afford to permit so
vast a mass of illiteracy to i'm
peril its institutions. 1t gives too
rich a harvest field to demago-
CUES; it is a drag-anchor on pro
gress; it is a constant threat Of
violence and an awful indictment
OF our capacity to govern wisely
We do not think the solution Of
the problem can be found in a
Capitalization Of educational di-
rection in Washington, with large
federal subsidies for state school
systems, It sounds good, but
that ends it. Rather do we think
that communities should be
friendly rivals in extirpating ig-
norance, as they have We'd with
one another in driving out
disease, until the time comes when
illiteracy in a village will brand
it with as deep a shame as would
its countenace today of unre-
stricted leprosy.

treasury savings certificates and
I Liberty bonds are adjusted to the
limitations Of every purse.
Moreover their usefulnes is not
momentary. They will not be cast
aside as out OF fashion or out

IN value with the passage OF time.
They carry with them the spirit
Of desire for future well-being ex-
pressiye Of true friendship and al
fection. They are appropriate for
all and more than a little excuse
exists for a recipient to feel that
little thought has been spent on a
gift no matter how expensive, if
it is manifestly inappropriate.

All the enemies that organized
labor ever had cannot possibly do
that cause one-half the injury it
received when a half dozen Of its
own leaders met in Chicago the
first of the week and denounced
the deportation Of ship-load Of
anarchists. The only inference
one can possibly draw from their
fulminations is that they sympa-
thized with the doctrines and
practices of the deported reds.
Time and again the most thought
full of Americans have told union
labor that its greatest enemy is
the agitator within it's own ranks
who seeks to bolshevise the order
For nearly two years it has been |
becoming more apparent thai
union labor must purge itself Of |
it's radical element or find itself
by an entire nation.
When a half dozen radicals ex.
press sympathy for the most Grim
inal class that ever cursed Ameri-
ca it is high time for the millions
Of sane and patriotic workingmen

mated and the prevailing condition
i M longer one Of waiting ior
.,oorer insight into the future put
.o,har If confident enbsTking upon
imnortant commitments. Witnin re-
cont weeks. the change of sentiment
has been sharply manifested ana the
reversal of purchasing policy which
has resulted not alone demonstrates
the pressure of consumptive require"
ments but also reflects wider ac-
eeptance of the belief that high
prices are to continue and that tardy
buyers may later face shortage Oh
merchandise. Scarcity of supplies. IN
fact. is now not uncommon feature
and many manufacturing interests
seeing order books already filed, are
withdrawing statesmen. from the ROAD
and are concentrating on making de-
liyeries within the specified time linn
its. Such a situation marks a pro
nounced departure from the lull in
activities that followed the armistice
and not only are apprehensions OF
unemployment lessening as the rate
of production rises. but reports OF
an actual paucity of skilled labor are
becoming more frequent in some
quarters as demands for goods grow
in magnitude and urgency. The pro
polling forces behind the present re-
covery are the extraordinary dOmes-
tic retail distribution of staple arti.
cles and Injuries. in some instances
at prices eclipsing previous high lev.
els, and the dependence of Europe
upon American markets for many
products needed in the process OF
after-war rehabilitation. No one sec
ton of the country, moreover. has q
monopoly on improving business and
optimism is practically general. while
complaints Of backward collections
are the exception and June promises
to set another low monthly record
in number of commercial failures.

that saying, "Our Bob jes' laffs." at

That one, little careless expression
made more enemies for Our Bob than
anything that occurred in that mem.

ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOR U. 8
SENATOR

In the Times-Union of yesterday,
in a long paid advertisement, Hon.
VIM. w. Tourney, of DeFuniak
Springs, makes his ringing announce
ment for United States senator The
Gainesville Sun will perhaps never
support Mr.. Tourney, but that is no
reason why we should say ne is not
a good man. He is good man, a
good lawyer, and a good citizen. We
recall the able legal service he rem.
dered Governor Cats in the last
memorable campaign.
We are, however. amazed at his
being candidate. II takes us nv
surprise, coming at just the time IL
does That it is not "TaIlahasses
made" is certain. If il had been
made there or even tinkered at there
Herbert Felkel and John Trice would
have given us hint of it.
We wonder why some Of the Ian
guage of Colonel Flournoy means.
Language like this for sinstance:
The whisper of the bride giver.
the corrupt use of money, whether by
friends, corporations. or trusts and
the dark blots of the anarchists. are
not more baneful or dangerous TO our
American institutions that the vote
catcher, the demagogue, or he who
would pay friendly OF political debts
Tor personal or selfish reasons with.
out regard for conscience or merit
and at the expense Of the govern
ment."
IL is forceful as well as eloquent
language and may have been used
merely in the abstract. Was Il 80
used and. if not, was it hitting az
anybody?
We wonder.-GainesviIle Sun.
