Pay As You Go.

Crescent Beach Fla,
April 2, 1924.
To the Editor of The American:
viii you kindly give me a little
space in your valued paper to say a
word in appreciation of e. W..
Wooster'sN articles relative to the
road questions?
First, | am opposed to the State
roads and bridges, so-called, or any
thing else that necessitates the
bonding of towns Why not wait
until we have sufficient funds in our
treasury, then build our roads and
enjoy them? | believe a suit of
clothes paid for fits lot nicer than
one that is still owned by the dealer.
Now, in all fairness, answer me
this: How many towns, cities and
states do you know that are wear
ing clothes that have been paid for
when they were put on; in other
words, where is there one that is out
of debt? DO you like to carry this
burden? l do not
Tourists must have these roads. y
Surel Have any luxury they are will
ing to pay for, but | am opposed to
their reaching into my pocket or the
pockets of my kindred not yet born,
for dollars to pay for the luxury.
Do | hear you say, i bet he does
not own car? Strange as it may
seem, | own two, but am not asking
anyone to build a road for me that |
may go JOY riding. Live and let
live, is my motto.
A few days agoI stood in the old
slave market in ST. Augustine.
The place was full of tourists, and
apparently everyone was happy, but,
somehow. the place brought sad
ness to me, for l thought of the days
when men and women were actually
bought and sold there l could seem
to feel the heartache, the awful
cruelty brought about by selfishness.
We all know what it cost to pay that
debt-thousands and thousands of
lives and heartache that cannot be
told.
Now about the State road, l would
suggest you hang up for spell at
the present arrangement You are
selling your children's children into
bondage-taXes that the fourth or
6tth generation wont see wiped out,
or, what is worse, the farms aban-
doned.
| am sure if we would be honest
with ourselves we could see the
handwriting on the wall as plainly
as Balshazzar read it. VIII we
learn from his experience and our
own, and see to it that such a calam-
ity does not fall on us?

WHAT DO YOU DO BEST? :
By Albert Apple

mind many colleges have vocational guidance eA"

The theory of these experts that each OF us has certain
natural abilities. One cut out to be- lawyer DOCTOR
dentist carpenter machnist salesman promoter organizer

And the experts is apt to be failure if ne
follows the wrong line
Prof Carl c. Brigham, psychologist of Princeton Uni
versity attacks this theory that each of has highly
developed gift for kind of work and not for others
He says, for instance, that students inability in GER
tain branch in reality matter of dstaste and emotional
bias rather than natural inability.
In other words student is star at mathematics be-
cause he likes it. because he has gift for figures.
Another shows up poorly at mathematics for the reason
that he dislikes it.
The simple truth is that we do best the things
WANT to do. Why bother debating whether the inclmaol
is generated by talent born in us?
Many gravtates into the legal profession spured
by the desire to live lawyers fe and only secondarily
urged forward by talent for his profession.
trade profession after all, is merely to
end The end goal may be wealth. power applause dgn
fled standing short hours of toll, travel, companonship
pleasant surroundings quest for the mysterious or un
known.
We like the average boy who at time other
has a burning ambition to be a railroad man. What ne
really wants is travel.
The thing most want to do is apt to be the thing
would do best The line of work that will enable to live
the kind of existence is where probably would
put forth your best efforts
Smmered down, all confirms the ancient saying that
man does his best when his heart is in his work.
