WISHING AND WORKING

There is an old adage which
goes something like this: The
things we want and do not get are
the things we wish for and do not
work for" There is kick to that
epigram which contains more than
one.half of ona per cent of truth.
It makes US with a guilty con-
science squirm as we ponder the
significance of the truth of it..
Every worthwhile thing in this
world has a price. Wishing is
merely the process of selecting the
goods. They are not ours until
we have paid for them. The things
we really want and those that we
get. we obtain only by working
for them. The price of them is
application, diligence, enthusiasm,
industry and thrift. just palm
work.

THE TARIFF

The republican congress is
hammering away on the tariff. 1t
makes no difference what the
troubles are the republican party
always finds IN the tariff a panacea.
No patent medicine was as great a
cure.all as is the tariff in the
estimation of the republican party.
To some of the leaders of that
party the tariff cures corns, warts,
bunions and chilblains: prevents
falling out of hair, strengthens the
kidneys cleanses the liver, and is
good for what ails you whether
anything is the matter with you or
not.
Foreign conditions and domestic
affairs will all get right when the
tariff is raised. If the farmers
products are selling low for lack
of a foreign market the tariff must
be raised so the manufacturer will
not suffer. The country clamors
for lower taxes, but the tariff
must be raised first so that the
millionaire infant industries will
not lose their grip on the country.
But the country wants it and what
is the use of complaining.
Carroll County democrat. (Huntingdon, Tenn.) 188?-1971, 1921-07-22

The new tariff bill before con-
gress takes hides and sheos off of
the free list. The farmer gets
three cents a pound for his hides
and pays $40 a pair for shoes.
Under such conditions the manu-.
facturer of shoes of course needs
protection. and having contributed
liberty to the republican campaign
found, be is going to get that pro.
fiction even if the farmers DO
have to pay more for shoes and
get less for hides.

PUBLIC SENTIMENT

There is no excuse and no pub
lie demand for the appearance oil
Clara Smith Hamon Ia motion

periences of her life, The wife of
.tae man she killed is ssnEldsss.ygrlng
to prevent the exhibition Of { film
that goes into the intimate details
of a life of adultery lived by this
young adventures,
There is another phase Of the
question that should hot be over
looked III bhig connection, The
public is manifesting some concern
over the character Of films that
are being portrayed, There is a
growing demand for more whole
some pictures. This sentiment at
present is not large and it Is not
powerful. But it Is potential for
great influence in the regulation
of the photoplay of the future.
1t is our idea that there should
be the least possible amount of
censorship. too much regulation
often destroys the good with the
evil. One way to escape leg
islation providing a strict CEN
corship of films is for the pro-
ducers to recognize their respon-
sibility to the public and to with
hold from exhibition sordid and
gruesome plays that can not fail
to react upon the industry itself.
Public sentiment is the most
powerful force in the world today,
but public sentiment is not always
o reliable criterion of justice.
When public sentiment is faunted
and disregarded it is not unusual
for public sentiment itself to re-
taliate and likewise 90 to extremes.
A proper regard for normal and
healthy public sentiment is the best
way TO prevent public sentiment
from giving way to its wrath and
going to excess. News Scimitar.
