LET'S BUILD
A
"Y!''
SCIENCE IN THE SCALES

Political Economy Is d
long ways from being one
of the exact sciences. We
doubt if it will ever become
so. But tn e economic
writer's, from Adam Smith
down, 90 on making gener-
alizatiOns and deducing
laws, just as if they knew
what they were talking
about. One reason they are
so often mistaken is that
they seek to confine human
nature within bounds and
limits they themselves set
up. But human nature in
variably escapes because it
transcends all laws except
those which have a moral
basis. Your true political
economist is often an atheist
and always an agnostic. He
seldom recognizes the found
ations that go to the roots
of Time itself, and endeavorS
to build his SuperStructure
on his man-derived laws.
For instance, he will tell you
that self-interest is the main
spring that moves all human
action. TIL at selfishneSS
permeateS the history of
mankind to the exclusion of
all things high and noble
whereas the exact contrary
is true. The real student Of
history sees the handiwork
of a Divine Being in the
movement upward and on
ward of the human race,
The political economy Of
Christ is at once the pro-
fOundest and most practical
of all theories that seek to
establish the laws of human
relationship and activity.
And the underlying prin-
ciple of His teachings is al
truiSm-in direct cOntradic-
ton to all the modern
scholars who have made so
much pother in the world!
But so long as they con-
fine themselves to things
merely material; to phenom-
ena which are rooted in the
physical world; and keep
their hands off of the spirit
ual phases of human exist
ence, they are often in
tereSting to study.
For instance, Jevons, one
of the most noted of English
economists, says that in the
same open market, at any
one moment, there cannot be
two prices for the same
article" He illustrates by
saying that if a merchant
arbitrarily fixed different
prices on perfectly equal and
uniform barrels of flour, a
purchaser would, Of course,
select the cheaper ones. That
is, that there is only one
price for a given commodity
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-04-26

probably be true in the ma
jority of cases; but not true
in every case. For there are
many things that enter into
buying and selling besides
price. Mr.. A might sell
flour at ten dollars a barrel,
and Mr.. B might charge
twelve dollars for the same
identical barrel. Yet Mrs. c
would buy of Mr.. B because
he was handsomer; because
he was always more polite;
because he was a blonde and
she detested brunetteS; be-
cause he was poorer and
needed the money; because
he never sent her a bill; or
for many other reasons, not
one of which bore relation
to the make, quality, or price
of the flour.
Wherefore it might be said
that sometimes, or perhaps
even generally, the Jevons
law would be true. But a
thing that is true must al
ways be true, under what
ever condition and circum-
stance. Apd a law to be a
law must be true. The laws
of mathematics are usually
believed to partake of this
description. That is, two
and two always make four.
And until Einstein, in his
borrowed plumage, fluttered
among us, we a w ay S
thought a straight line was
the shortest distance be-
tween two points.
But the strange fact is
that the laws of science are
always fluid and never fixed.
Even Newton's law of gray
ity is now questioned. The
solidity of the earth, like
wise. Centuries come and
90, and man changes his
viewpoint as to the physical
universe, Oftentimes COM
pletely reversing his age-old
theories. The only laws that
have never changed since
man was created are the
moral laws. The teachings
of Buddha, of Confucius, of
Mani, of Plato, even of Mo
manned, are the same in
their essentials. The ancient
Hebrews spoke with God on
the mountain-top and in the
bush. Jesus of Nazareth
brought the message of sal
walton direct from on high
-unchanging and unchange-
able through all the cycles
of eternity.
Science, which is of the
mind, is continually being
weighed in the scales of
Time, and continually found
wanting. Moral truth, how
ever, which is of the heart,
was the same when first the
morning stars sang to-
gether, as it is today, and as
It still will be when cosmic
space is filled with the fly
ing fragments of a solar
system rent asunder.

Whenever duties permit the County
Agent in future will endeavor to have
a column i'm this weekly paper. From
time to time during the past two and
a half years he has had the privilege
of using these columns for any in
formation he cared to transmit to the
readers of the paper.
Many people have asked from time

" in agricultural lines, and TO really
give a definite answer has been hard
al times. but it is hoped that many
questions OF this sort will be answered
by this weekly report.

to fill all the orders of the members of

Leghorn seems TO be the favorite
straw for large hats, one OF the most
beautiful displayed being very wide

adorned with a wreath OF starlike
flowers shading from brightest fame
TO delicate lavender.
Another dyed leghorn model of jade
with large bunch OF shaded cher

subject OF much favorable comment
as was a mahogany colored creation
of this popular straw. A lacquered
flower in se1f-color and black, added
a final smart touch to the mahog-

Two especially demure mushroom
hats for the young girl were charm
ing. one of blue hemp and maine,
with intriguing wreath of blue and
golden orange flowers. the second of
similar materials in Gamma, cluster
of flowers of the same shade adding
the final touch.
Another very youthful hat was of
pcriwinkle visca braid with two fame
colored quilts. OF bamboo visca, a
tricorn shape trimmed with button
like vari-colored flowers could not
fail to entice the youthful woman.
An unusual brown hat was develop

entire front being covered with gold

to deep brown.
Designed to go with the black lace
gown now so favored, a new poke. of
black lace, and lacquered cherries
could not fail to tempt milady.
Another hat of black used two black
lacquored birds TO complete its smart
ness.
A table devoted solely to the dis

several clever hats of this type de-
veloped in silk and crepe, some in
the new "off-the-face" effects and
others in larger hats
