When you face the world and tryI

mankind. you are confronted with
serious problems. How to solve
SOME eradicate / h E
Dp0pT nrc evils, and how
ANOoAGNAO to succeed In
the work of gen.
eral betterment is, of course, a
great task. The following prob
lens, if solved. would bring America
peace, happiness, and prosperity.
Let US solve them.
FlRST-Apathy. Americas peo-
pie love good humor. Feed them
well and permit them to sleep and
they will laugh through any storm
and ride through any disaster. I'm
~mediately after the disasters of life
have apparently passed, however,
they settle down into a state of
apathy. That condition is today
settling upon us.
During the war, we preached
preparation, watchfulness, and the
curbing of all radical forces. When
peace was announced. we settled
back into the habit of eating, sleep
ing, and laughing. The red"
forces didn't sleep; the powers
antagonistic to good government
