The Last Stand

Louisville Currier Journel-Euro-
pean communities have firewood for
ests hundreds of years old, maintain
ed upon a basis of profit. Timber
is cut, as a crop. The forest IS kept
alive. The root system is not de-
stroved. In China trees are planted
to make firewood.
How different the fuel gathering
method in America, where wood is
used. In Farm Life, an Indiana
journal writer tells Of having
learned TO beat the high price OF
COAL with a power saw.
The trees that are left will be the
last stand of timber. The farmer
then will burn coal, or buy wood
from someone who didn't acquire his
power saw so soon. Every farm
woodlot that is destroyed increases
the drain upon coal mines. Every
increase of demand will increase the
price of coal for everybody.

SELFISH INTERESTS
GOVERN MOST OF us
In OUR THINKING
We Arc Fooled by What We Want
To Think.

The wish to achieve an end, laud-
able doubtless, and conscious so far
as concerns the main results. plays
an ignoble part in the subtle ways
in which it determines thought and
action toward many related ques-
! tions In its unconscious activity
behind the scenes of conscious
thought, it assemblies all the primi-
tive racial impulses as aids in the at
tainment of personal ends. Work
ing in this unconscious way. the In
telligence OF the wish is limited to
the moment. 1t does not view the
larger aspects of its own achieve
ments. 1t refuses consideration of
everything which seems to oppose its
fulfilment. Demonstrable facts are
therefore unnoticed, though they
may be patent to the rest of the
world. And what is observed is ln>
terpreted in terms that satisfy the
wish. The author of THE Road to
Dor" for example, when uncer-
tain of the reply which the spirit
should make, found that if he gave
three answers the believer would ac-
cept the right one and discard the
others.
But there is another obstacle to
clear thinking, and that is the hu-
man tendency to tolerate parallel
series of thoughts about matters
which will not mix without unpleas-
ane consequences. These parallel
streams of thoughts are especially
comforting when one series is in
compatible with our desires or be-
liefs. And thinking is then un-
trammelled so long as neither
stream breaks its dikes and over
flows into the other. But this is not
serious danger because the wish is
always on guard. 1t never sleeps,
and it is even watchful in what, for
want of better name. has been call
ed our subliminal or subconscious
mind.
Parallel streams of thoughts, in
part, describe the minds of proflteers
Contrary to the general belief, they
are not villains. They are only run
ming true to primitive psychology
to the psychology of the savage
take what you want is you can get
it. Altruism and social service have
nothing to do with business. Even
morality and religion run their sep
arate course apart from thoughts OF
trade. So we have the Jealous social
welfare workers, of whom we have
spoken who in the market place per-
petuate the conditions which as well
fare workers they are trying to end.
