But the vice president does not
stop at the good bills that may
have been killed by flibuster, and
never passed. He emphasizes most
ly the bad bills that were passed by
filibdster and never repealed.
For one of the commonest pur-
poses of filibuster is not to defeat
the bill filibustered against, but to
use it as club to compel the ac-
ceptance of some pet local measure
or amendment which could never
pass on its merits.

ed and given salary of $3.50
month.
At the end of the first month,
with his first $3.50 check he
came back to Sumter county.
Entering the office of his friend
he said:
81 am back to pay that note,
not yet due. | have my first
$3.50 check and | want to pay that
note with this check. May I call
on my benefactor? | have never

Entering her home, he handed
her the check and with tears Of
qualification, stopped low and
kissed her hand, and with
trembling lips said: 1t is far
more blessed to give than to re-
ceive.
We see much of the hard side
of life. The crimes and the I'M
fair things are told and retold,
but there's a wealth Of beautiful
stories like the above which are
never known. If we could but
look into the heart of men and
women, how often we would be
forced to change our opinions.
That man or that woman who,
appears selfish and self-centered
may be lending a helping hand
to many fellow who needs
help.
We can never tell.
But we can search diligently
for the good things of life and
overlook some of humanity s
apparent faults.
