Everything in life is matter of
debts and credits.
We have lawyer friend who is paid
large fees for advice, and he tells us
that whom proposition is presented
to him, he always makes two parallel
lists, one for and one against.
Few things and fewer people in this
world are perfect. The practical peo-
pie, the people who get ahead, do not
demand perfection, even in their wives
and husbands.
We suppose it is only by unconscious
ly applying the bOokkeeper's habit Of
entering debts and credits that wo-
men are able to put up with their hus-
bands. We like our friends for their
good qualities. We know they have
some debts, but the credits outweigh
the debts.
This is not a defense of the "let
good enough alone" policy. Many of us
tolerate nuisances and evils and stupid
tiles long after the balance has tipped
the wrong way. We neglect to check
up. We fear the facts.
The plea, then, is for both tolerance
and intolerance, and chiefly for justice.
The important item is the balance.
Is this favorable or unfavorable. The
world would be a more enjoyable place
Of residence if we closed our books
oftener, and made decisions based on
proved balances.
Many people never seem to know
where they stand on anything. At
least third of those entitled to vote
failed to exercise the privilege. The
reason they give is that politics is the
bunk. The true reason is that they
are too lazy to give the subject intelli-
gent and earnest thought. BY refusing
to make mental debit and credit en-
tries, and to take Off a balance, they
contribute to the shiftlessness and in
efficiency Of public service.
We all need to be checked up, and
the more closely we are checked the
better we work. Through checking,
the man who is now doing good work
is stimulated to do better work, while
the man who is doing poor work is
stimulated to do passable work. 1t is
unjust not to reward a willing horse,
and equally unfair not to punish a
lazy horse.
If debts and credits were accurate
ly entered we would all receive and
i've justice.

We invite articles from any Of our

we do not solicit letters for publication

With many overhead schemes for the
worlds salvation, everything rests
back on integrity and driving power in
personal character.-Harry Emerson
Fosdick.
We have been trying to emphasize
this thought in all the writings we
have done in the last five years
We once had faith In overhead
schemes but finally reached the con-
clusion that people could not be help
ed unless they were eager to help them
selves.
Politicians get into Office and news
napers- get circulation by promising to
do something for people. We have
often thought 1t would be refreshing
If some politician came forward and
promised to let the people alone. 1t
might turn out that the people, weary
Of being coddled and restrained, would
welcome the freedom as boy wei
comes his majority when his parents
put him on self-supporting, self
sufficient basis.
Character is developed through ex-
perience. Just because a man knows
that If adversely comes he Will be
taken care of, is no reason that he
should skate on thin ice.
This, Il seems to us, Is what nap
pens to people when the government
adopts paternalistic attitude. by
Offering old age pensions and unem-
ployment insurance. and comparable
measures, the moral fibre of every
one is weakened.
Instead of anticipating the future
and accommodating a little money foi
possible unemployment and inevitable
old age, they say to themselves, why

vide real luxury in living. The men
who have acquired the largest fortunes
have not pursued wealth. Had they
desired money for the enjoyment OF
money, they would have stopped far
short of spending their whole lives
as they have in the struggle, that IS
business, but these men continue TO
toll at their tasks, because they love
achievement They work for the keen
delight Of creating something where
nothing was, and some time the people
will be convinced that these men were

be safely assumed, been responsible
for this noteworthy change. The very
presence of Gods Holy Word is suf-
ficient to awaken the spiritual con-
sciousness, and appeal to the best
that is in man.
In giving a few of the remarkable
features contained in the Bible, the
Gideons have stressed the following
It is a Book of Laws, Wisdom,
Truth, Life.
1t is authentic and entertaining his
tory. 1t contains the most remote an-
tiquities, the most remarkable events,
and wonderful occurrences.
1t is a perfect body Of divinity. An
unequalled narrative. A Book of
biography, travels, voyages.
1t is the best covenant ever made,
the best deed ever written.
1t is the best will ever executed, tie
best testament ever signed.
1t is a learned mans masterpiece.
1t is a young mans best companion.
1t is the schOOlbOys best instructor.
1t is the ignorant mans dictionary,
and every mans directory.
1t promises an eternal reward to
the faithful and believing.
But that which crowns all is the
Author. He is without partiality, and
without hypocrisy, with whom there
is no variableness, neither shadow of
turning"
In thus "giving a cup Of cold water
in Christ's name" the Gideons are rem
dering valuable aid to humanity, and
it must inevitably follow that hotel
guests of all manners and descriptions
will be lead to the light of spiritual
understanding by this quiet, unOsten-
tatious but remarkably effective ser
vice.

Schools of Arkansas can never reach
the standard desired-that will mean
much more wealth in both people and
property-until the present absurd 12-
mill tax limit is removed.
When parents themselves take steps
to bring about adequate taxation
through equalized and honest assess
ment, then and not until then can Ar
kansas take a rightful place in the
scheme Of things, and educate her peo-
pie properly.
The value of buildings In Arkansas.
buildings alone, not farms, merchan-
disc, livestock, automobiles, ETC., but
the value of buildings alone, based on
the fire insurance records, is more
than twice the total assessment of all
