who are more expert.
But you are unwilling to exert
control over your mind enough
to give full attention to what
you are doing.
You do not like to think be-
cause it entails effort and so
you just jog along through life,
from one day to another, almost
aimleSsly.
Thus you have wasted what
might have been to you a faith
full servant.
Your mind would serve you
more and more with the years.
It is only disuse that slows up

The more you make your
brain work the more capable it
is of working.

you have on earth, your mind.

LISTEN, WORLD!
By Elsie Robinson =

} tage of your confession-use
it against you, somehow
And wouldn't you be ashamed
and Inundated the next day
when you realized what you
had done?
Doubt; fear; suspicion. In
Stantly the frank impulse was
gone. The door in your heart
shut, barring out that SEEM
ingly friendly soul, shutting
you in with your old loneliness
and pain.
How often it happens like
that!
DON'T LET IT!
Obey that impulse!
DARE TO GIVE YOURSELF!
Dare to give the love and
laughter that bubble naturally
within you.
Every soul you meet is hun
cry for just such friendliness.
Aren't you hungry yourself?
Doesn't it quicken you, hearten
you, to feel sudden, surprising
kindness? Aren't you grateful
for it?
An OutStretched Hand
OF course yau are. And the
other fellow will be grateful,
too-more grateful than you
can know.
That kindly unexpected word
may be a hand stretched down
to help him out Of hell!
And dare to share your pain!
It is not a queer thing to do.
It is the greatest compliment
you can give another human
that sharing Of grief.
There is a sort of sacred COM
munion about it.
Do you remember when, as a
child, you took your first COM
munion-took, with wonder,
that bit of bread, that sup of
wine? Why? You did not under
stand.
But there, in that solemn
silence, you felt something you
had never felt before. Others
were taking that wine and
bread, too. You were taking it
all together. You could feel the
wonder and the silence. You
could feel the rare tenderness
and togetherness. Never had
you felt so near other people
before.
Grief is a communion, too
the bitter, black bread of hui
man agony; the harsh, salt
wine of human tears. Those
who share that communion are
never after entirely apart.
Dare to share your pain. Do
not be proud about your tragedy.
Every soul on earth has some
pain hidden deep within the
heart. Humble your pride and
open your heart. Share your
grief. or another's, as you would
share bread and wine. In CIV
ing comfort, you will find heal
ing. You will never be so lonely
again.
Dare to give yourself, and you
will find yourself-there, in that
strangers heart.

So often it happens like that.
There was that other impulse
yesterday. Then you wanted
to reveal your heart. You
wanted to tell someone about
that old worry that has been
nagging you, about that sorrow
you've never quite learned to
bear.
One can't always talk about
things like that; but now and
then there comes a moment.
The Big Desire
You had such a moment,
didn't you. A casual acquaint-
ance's kindly smile, under
standing glance, seemed to
open a locked door in your
heart. For a moment you had
an overwhelming desire to tell
about task for help.
Then, like a black thing
swooping down, came the old
fear.

queer?

In every love-nest, there are
dull gray mornings, for the
fondest husband and wife when
each bottles up his or her
crouch and dares the other to
come along with a corkscrew.
A long engagement is an en-
durance test, in which the girl
waits for the man to give UP
struggling and the man waits
for the girl to give up hope.
In the tamest and most de-
voted husband, there is always
somewhere a dead Don Juan,

Others Lead, the

President FOLLOWS.
Others lead, the President
follows.
It is a matter of prece-
dence to which we have be-
come accustomed during the
last three years of human
misery.
Thus the Democrats an
nounce plans for govern
mental savings through con-
solidations, and the Admins
tration Immediately dis
covers it has a plan which
has been a dark secret for
three years.
Thus the Democrats in the
Senate let it be known one
day that they will favor a
prosperity loan for public
works to put some of the
100000 denied the right
to work in jobs; and the
next day the President, who
has kept it a dark secret
all the time, announces the
presidents plan" for un-
employment.
Others lead; the President
follows.
But he does not follow
very far. Instead of a pros
perity loan of proportions
commensurate wit n the
crisis, the gravest in Ameri-
can history, which is worse
today as far as unemploy-
ment is concerned than it
was two months ago, the
presidential plan is to give
the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation an additional
81, ,160, 100000 to be loaned
to private business which is
unable to borrow from the
banks, bulging with boarded
money.
The theory is that private
corporations have orders they
cannot fill without a loan;
that the loan will put men to
work to fill the orders, and
one case is cited. It would
be interesting to know how
many big corporations have
big orders, but are not en-
ploying workers and filling
the orders because they
cannot made a loan. Is
U. S. Steel in that condi-
ton?
Then $4O,0OO,OOO is to be

aid.
And $3OO,OOO,OOO is to be
loaned to States, not munich

vent starvation. Since these
are loans, the prevention of

A Prosperity Loan!
No Hoover Plan
Claude G.. BOWerS

THE Democratic House
Il passed, and the Senate
accepted, a tariff act ask
ing the President to open ne
gotiations for reciprocal ac-
tion on the part. of the ma
tions to reopen the markets
of the world to American
products.
These markets were closed
to us because Mr.. Grundy
"raised a million dollars for
the election of Mr.. Hoover"
from among certain men, and
something h vim g been
bought, in his opinion, some
thing bigger and better had
to be delivered; and so the
tariff act was passed over
the protest of every intelli-
gent economist in the land,
and of merchants and busi-
ness men.
With the damage done,
there has been a general de-
mand among business men
for lust such action as the
Democratic bill provided.
And Mr.. Hoover has
vetoed the bill; and Admin
istration organs that have
been protesting against the
economic isolation forced
upon us by the Grundy
tariff fall in line With COM
mendation of presidential
/, wisdom.
And the same day the
same papers publish an en-
lightened story which be-
gins thus:
"The leading republics of
Latin America have begun
diplomatic negotiations look
ing toward the formation
of a Latin American GUS
tons union for united de-
tense and concerted re-
prisals against the United
States tariff policy"
The President refuses to
negotiate for the reopening
of the markets, and other
nations begin negotiations to
close more markets in our
face.
Surely, comment is super
fluous.

Problems of the
Nations Government

In the Presidents state
ment he reiterates, as a vir-
tue, that the principle of
having the Nations Govern
ment do nothing to prevent
starvation in a national
crisis "is not to be
changed" And he comedies,
reluctantly, it seems, that
"fear has arisen that ex-
isting relief measures and
resources may prove made
quate." /" Is that a fair state
ment9 Doesn't every one
know positively that exist
ing relief measures and re-
sources are inadequateY Is
the Salvation Army in New
York city melting to un-
justified fear when it says:
"Social problems are now
business problems. The chief
concern of business leaders
and of men in high govern
mental places is no longer
only a question of when
business recovery will take
place. It is also a question
Of preventing crime and dis
order, by relieving the pres
ent strain on those Of our
people who, through no fault
of their own, find them
selves on the verge of des-
peration."
And not only "business
problems either; we SUBJ
NIT they have become the
problems of the Nation
Government.
