THE FARM EMIGRATION

During the last two years the agricultural popu-
lation of the United States has increased by nearly
$4,000 men, according to reports drawn up by econ
omists at Chicago.
This is largely due to the movement of the I'M
employed from the city to the country otivated,
no doubt, by the fact that no matter how bad the
depression may be the man who grows his own
potatoes and raises his own chickens at least is going
to escape starvation.
In some ways this is encouraging development
But in the long run little will be gained if we
simply transfer poverty from the city to the country
Unless some way is found of enabling these new
farmers to get something more than bare living
out of the soil, this shift can not be permanent.
doUn-and-out farmer can be just about as ptiable
an object as down-and-out factory hand

So They Say

The depression has no more re-
lation to a business cycle than a
tidal wave has to a tide. The
return Of world demand for gold
has pulled the foundations out
from under the whole debt and
price structure.-G. r. Warren,
professor of agricultural econom-
les, Cornell university.
I will make a prayer and ask for
power to see what women may &C.
complish, and for courage to fol-
low the light as it is given to me.
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife
of the President-elect.
When oVerproduction has
brought on us a tremendous eco
nomic crisis, isn't it hypocritical
to thank God for the abundance?
The Rev. Charles Francis Pot
ter, New York clergyman and au-
thor.
Your depression is much SUI
perior to our prosperity in italy.
Baroness Margit Veszi-Mantica,

Technocracy is prophecy Of
doom. 1t presents no charity and
is not quite so respectable as the
Communist who knows what ne
wants.-Dr. William z. Wicken-

This is the second Of two articles BY
DR.. Fishbein cautioning the public to
think twice before signing UP for hos
pital insurance.
TN many places hospital insur-
Il ance schemes have seemed to
offer exceptional opportunities to
great numbers Of people to pro-
tect themselves against hospital
bills.
However, even under the best
Of circumstances there have been
abuses. There is the possibility
Of disorganization of the medical
profession; the question Of under
bidding for the service, with the
patient invariably the ultimate
sufferer
Acceptable medical service can
be delivered only at certain costs.
Any attempt to bid for the service
under these costs is sure to result
in skimping of the service, which
the public can not understand,
because the public itself really
never has learned to evaluate
medical service satisfactorily.
The most important ingredient
IN any type of medical care is the
personal attention Of q competent

A PPLIED chemistry will play
N an important role in the next
upswing of American industry.
So says DR.. George Oliver Curme
Jr., New York chemist, just
awarded the Chandler medal for
1888.
This medal is awarded annu-
ally to the chemist whose research
work has done the most to adj
vance industry. DR.. Curme is best
known for his invention of the
process for the manufacture of
synthetic ethyl alcohol
He is vice-president and direc-
tor of research of the Carbide and
Chemicals Corporation, unit Of
the Union Carbide and Carbon
Corporation.
DIR. Curme looks forward con-
f1dently to the nations recovery
from the present depression.
Back in the early 1905" he
says, IAN industrial innovation in
the mass manufacture Of automo-
biles gave a powerful and lasting
uplift to manufacture.
To-day, applied chemistry is
giving impetus to not one but
scores of industries in the manu-
facture of a variety of products,
all of which contribute to the
needs and comfort of every class
Of our people.

should not form a mighty force
for the expansion of manufacture

Every Day Religion

MO, emphatically we are not
4 ' happy today, and as things
are now we ought not to be. The
resources for happiness never
were greater, yet man never has
been more desperately unhappy.
Our age is a chaos of cleavages,
conflicts and contradictions, and
until the schism is somehow
healed we can not be happy. At
present, no institution seems
stable, no way of life satisfying,
no mind at peace, no body at
ease.
For what is happiness? One
notion is that it is inseparabIe
from material conditions; and an
other view holds that it is purely
a moral or mental state. A larger
view uniteS the essentials of both
these ideas, finding happiness in
a harmony Of the outer and inner
life.
In brief, happiness IS content
ment. But what is contentment?
And is contentment possible with
out some degree of calm, repose,
quiet?

TINE race for riches, the rush
Il for pleasure, the increasing
speed of life and its multiplicity
of demands never can of them

taste, an inner discipline, as well
as a measure of material welfare,
what then?

attainable when the mind Of our
