SECURITY OF LIFE

President Roosevelt has sent a
message to Congress. in which he
Gwells upon the idea of security"
for the men, women. and children
Of our nation. He calls for better
housing, planned use of natural re-
sources, and provision against un-
employment and dependent old age.
Everybody is sympathetic with the
iCea of greater economic security
for the whole people. We have real
lied for the past five years, how
much economic insecurity there is.
Millions of people who had felt safe
and protected, in the jobs which
they held or the property they
owned, have seen those jobs and
property vanish, and are left to be
hLffeted by the winds of fate. The
American people can not and must
not permit such conditions to con-
time.
But how to remedy them? There
are a thousand different opinions.
This insecurity can not wholly van
ish so long as so many people act
in a way to make themselves inse-
cure. So long as many people will
work in a lOafing and indolent way, |
so long as many throw away money |
when they have it. so long as many |
give themselves over to harmful
vices. we cant have complete Sc
curity.
But great deal can be done to |
work out better business systems,
that will operate more regularly and !
be more dependable. Business must |
be encouraged to go ahead and EN- |
ploy labor, but it must not be so
freed of restraint, 40 hat'~ excessive
Irotits are earned, that speculative |
CXcesseS are encouraged, so that
the masses of the people are CON
demned to economic insecurity.
The productive capacity of our in
dustries is sufficient, if that capacity
can be Systematically organized, to
produce u good degree of comfort
for all industrious people. But if
We are to get that systematic or
sanization. the people must be, will
ing to give far more attention to
their duties as citizens than they
YER have before.

IMPERFECT WORK

If all the imperfect work done in
the world could only be done better,
how much more smoothly our in-
dustrial machine would run! A
printer was telling the other day
of how he once set a green hand at
work printing some envelopes. He
soon noticed that the young man
took no pains to get the lines print
ed straight on the envelopes, but
they were printed crooked, and the
envelopes were spoiled.
The printing was all on there.
wasn't it. and they can read it, cant
they?" the young man said. He
couldn't seem to see that it was
necessary not merely to get the
printing on the envelopes, but to
have 1t on straight and true, so as
to convey a correct and finished APP
pearance.
People will make little progress
in this world, unless they get the
idea of doing their work in that per-
feet manner. They must listen to
the instructions given, and follow
The copy that is set for them in every
particular.

HONE ACCIDENTS

People who stay quietly at home
iie always thought of as safer than
those who travel much and are con-
SANITY on the go. Yet the figures
of accidents show that many of these
lnishaps occur in the homes. Those
Who are the most cautious about
taking chances in public places, may
do some simple thing at home that
lands them in bed for weeks.
A lady was hurt the other day by
stepping on a board out in her back
yard The end of the board was
resting on Il stick of wood. the board
slipped, and the lady was thrown.
Her legs got twisted and one of
them was broken. People are hurt

which became slippery when soap
vas used in them.
There are an infinite number of
ways in which you can be hurt un-
rxpectedly. and under conditions
" here no peril or risk appeared to
your eyes.
The habit of hurrying contributes
10 these mishaps. The people who
re always rushing from one thing
% another. who never seem to catch |
Up with their work, and are always |
I little behind time, are perhaps |
more exposed TO these mis-chances. |
They hurry SO much that they ne
,'ect the ordinary precautions that
'areful people take.
The old saying had it that haste
makes waste" The proyerb may
rave originated with someone who
lOted the mishaps that occur when
,eople hurry too much.
Just a minute of carelessness may
ause you many weeks or months of
ncapacity or suffering The human
'ody is kind of frail thing after
IL. and you have to guard ii care
ully. even to come through the
'erils OF daily life in your own
ome.
