SUFFERING BEASTS

The great drought of 1884 brings
poverty and destitution to many fam
lilies. Meanwhile We must spare a
thought to the suffering of millions
OF dumb animals.
People have grown more sympa-
thetic with animal suffering. There
was a time when no one bothered if
horse owner starved his beast, or
if a farmer kept his cattle hungry.
But increased sympathy began to
look out for such things. If a man
drove a horse around with the poor
animals ribs sticking out, public
sentiment -said"it was wFong. HUI
name societies were formed, and got
after such cases. But here now we
have millions of poor cattle, horses,
and other animals suffering from the
scarcity of water and food. When
these poor creatures utter sounds
OF distress, and the farmer in dry
country has no water to give them,
and no food but nearly burned grass
in his scOrched pasture, it must
wiring his heart to witness the suf-
fering which he is unable to relieve.
And many of these animals must be
so weak and ailing that they have
no voice to tell of their want.
1t has been the merciful thing that
cattle are being shipped out of the
dry country in such vast numbers,
and that their sufferings will soon
be mercifully ended. There is
very pathetic in any suf-
fering beast. who can't help himself
and has no intelligence with which
to meet his troubles. 1t reminds
one of the words of scripture, For
we know that the whole creation
grOweth and traveleth in pain to-
gether"
If something can be done through
tree planting or other measures to
mitigate such calamities in future,
We shall not merely promote eco
nOmic security for our people, but
spare millions of helpless beasts un-
told suffering.

THE ADVANCING DESERTi

Old maps published about rs years
ago, marked of vast tracts in the
Rocky Mountain and plains states
as the "Great American Desert" 1t
was a little known region, tenanted
mostly by Indians and buffaloes. Its
possibilities were regarded as al
most hopeless.
Then came a time when the re-
sources of this wonderful country
were discovered and utilized. Trea-
sures of gold, silver and copper
were dug out. Vast areas of this
seemingly useless land had rich
soils, and needed only irrigation to
produce prosperity. But in spite of
these gains, there are still very large
territories which so far as prac-
tical use goes are still desert.
The terrible drought of 1884 has
convinced many people that the real
desert area is still larger than has
been supposed. and that many peo-
pie now trying to farm on these
lands are engaged in a hopeless un-
dertaking and should remove to
more fertile soils. 1t is true that
the desert is thus advancing, and
will claim more of our lands?
1t is difficult to believe that this
drought represents more
than a passing tendency. Students
Of ancient times think that there was
a very severe drought in many of
these regions about zoe years ago.
They reach that conclusion as the
result of study of the rings around
very old trees. which showed a great
retardation of growth about seven
centuries ago. That they think must
have been due to a long period OF
drought.
But these old tree rings indicate
hat those famine periods passed,
and the earth became once more
fruitful If it has done so in past
ages, it will do so again. The desert |
S not likely to advance. but rather |
t should keep growing smaller, as
nan learns better how to use its |
'esources.

KIDNAPPING ALSO in CANADA

kidnapping has been considered
mostly a habit of the American un-
derworld, something which has
flourished in our land due to the pc
culiar conditions of crime which our
people have tolerated. Now they are
trying it in Canada, which has been
relatively free from such doings.
They got hold of John Labatt of Lon
don, Ontario, the other day, demand
ing $15O,OOO ransom.
The Ontario police say they will
spare no expense to run down the
perpetrators of that deed. That is
the way to get at it, and If money
enough is spent, it should be pos
sible to get these vile creatures. Now
we shall see whether 1t is any safer
to commit these brutal deeds in our
neighboring country. But fortu-
nately in the United States, the kid
nappsrs have been pursued recently
with such success that the under
world is showing caution about these
deeds.

RADIOS TRIUMPH

The story that keeps coming in
from Little America in the Antarctic,
of the doings of these brave boys in
the polar night, is a wonderful tri-
umph for radio science. Here are
snowy Businesses which man can
traverse only with difficulty and dan
ger. But day by day the news keeps
vibrating through the ether, telling
of their activities. and how they sent
an expedition through difficulty and
peril to relieve Admiral Byrd in his
distant outpost.
Fifteen years ago radio broadcast
ing seemed just a dream to most of
us. Today its voice speaks across
the WORLDS most desoiat6 spices.
The world is moving very. very fast.
in scientific achievement. But when
it comes to the art of living together,
it sometimes seems doubtful whether
We move at all.

OVERHAULING THE NRA

1t is indicated that important
changes will soon be made in the
administration of the NRA. In one
short year the attempt has been
made to have a grand cleanup OF
industrial evils. 1t is too much to
expect that such a system could
avoid developing very serious defects.
1t is predicted that price fixing
will disappear from the system, ex-
cept in emergencies. The American
people believe in free competition.
II you allow price fixing, monopolies
and unjust prices may be encour-
aged. But if you don't allow such
price agreements, some competitors
often abuse labor in their efforts to
get business. 1t will take the wis
dom of a Solomon to avoid the diff
ficulties that exist in either dilemma.
Milford chronicle., 1934-08-24
THE FOREST FIRE DEMON

Destructive forest fires in Idaho
and California recently killed three
CCC workers. Forest fires are ter
rible calamities. People who recall
the days when there was no system
for fighting such fires, will say that
the rush of these flames was the
most dreadful kind of disaster they
ever could imagine. Fires would
sweep through great tracts with in
conceivable rapidity. People who
waited too long in the path Of flames
might be overtaken and might per-
ish as if they had jumped into a
hot furnace.
1t is a pitiful sight to see a great
forest, which has been growing for
a century or more, suddenly reduced
to ashes. 1t would pay to spend
much money to prevent such things.
Milford chronicle., 1934-08-24
THE SONGsTERS SILENT

Bird life goes through a crescendo
and diminuendo, to use musical
terms. With the advent of spring,
the bird world breaks forth into a
grand symphony. In every tree and
bush the warblers are found, utter
ing their love notes, and praising
the works of creation as if their lit
tie throats would burst. That grand
chorus lasts a few months. Then
suddenly you discover that the con-
cert is over. The bird friend is seen
hopping over the lawn, but he no
longer utters his hymn of joy. What
has come over his mood?
Have the cares of raising a family
exhausted his spirit? Has he been
disappointed in his affections, and
seen his mate run away with some
younger and flasher singer? 4?
Nature has other gifts to offer us
in the glorious autumnal colors of
flowers and foliage. If the bird con-
cert was offered us every day, our
ears would become dulled to its
beauty.

KEEPING UP
deeds.

A good many people are satisfied
il they do things as they always
have been done. Some farmers will
say they are handling their farms
just as their fathers and grand
fathers did before them. What was
good enough in those former times,
must be good enough now. But
that style of management does not
get anywhere. You have to keep
making improvements, to keep up
with the game.
II is so in the life of a town. If
business concern is satisfied simp-
ly to follow the old methods, it will
fall behind more progressive COM
petitors and places. If the towns
people. in their schools, their local
organizations, and their civic life,
simply try to keep up to the former
records, they too will fall behind.
The places that are always making
will go ahead of them.

HANDING OUT HOT ONES

The American people have now
entered upon another political cam
paign. From now until November
9th when a new Congress will be
chosen, we shall hear heavy fusil-
ladies' of oratOry, windy torrents OF
words, startling charges, predictions
of ruin if the wrong party controls
the government, forecasts of glorious
prosperity if the faithful are chosen.
Meanwhile the average citizen looks
on more or less amazed, if indeed
he is not Indifferent and wonders how
much of all he hears is really so.
The worst fault of political dis
cussion is the tendency to exaggera-
tion, to paint everything in high col
ors. The virtues of ones own party
are exalted beyond reason, the err
rors of opponents are likewise paint
ed in too lurid hues.
The United States is not going to
be ruined, whatever happens. There
is always a saving common sense in
the minds of the people that prevents
too great extremes of any kind. If
a political party makes mistakes. its
own followers insist that the errors
be corrected.
1t may be argued that it is neces-
sary TO paint political issues in high
cOlOrs in order to attract attention.
If political speakers confined them
selves to carefully measured and
balanced statements, they may think
that people would not stop to listen
tc them. But eXaggeration and vio-
lent denunciation do not accomplish
much. They offend people of intel
hgefce and independent minds! ADiid
Great political evils exist because
our people are so busy chasing the
Almighty Dollar, or so occupied with
their sports and pastimes, that they
can't stop to view the issues Of gov
ernment. When people study the |
problems of government as carefully |
as they do those of their own daily |
occupation, the American people will
make great social and political ad-
vances.

MAN AGAINST NATCRE

The third attempt to reach Rear
Admiral Byrd in his lonely shack
deep in the Antarctic. found that
great explorer weak and thin after
a five months solitary struggle in
that scene of storm and desolation.
1t was an illustration of how difficult
it is for man to contend alone against
the forces of nature.
Here is Admiral Byrd, one of the
greatest explorers and scientists. 1t
might be thought that with his skill
and experience, he would be able to
go down alone into this scene of
danger, and contrive SO skilfully with
the implements of modern life that
he could defy the elements, and
laugh at the storm while the ther-
mometer sunk without to 50 degrees
below zero.
Man has to combine his efforts
with his fellows to accomplish much
against these majestic forces of ma
ture. If he goes out alone in a
stormy sea, the power of the wind
and waves will break his frail craft.
But if a hundred men combine to-
gether, their skill and science and
combined energy will beat the storm.
If man goes out alone on the des-
olate plains in a blizzard, his senses
may be beaten down by the power
of the storm, so that he will lose his
way and perish. But if a group of
men go out, they cheer each other
on, they aid each other. If some of
them become bewildered and are
ready to drop with fatigue, others
will make headway and help all to
arrive at safety.
Such things are a reminder that
people have to unite their efforts to
meet the difficulties of life. One man
alone in the terrOrs of the Antarc-
tic is exposed to peril. But the whole
bunch of them in their hut at Little
America are able to defy the ele-
ments. So in our common life, If
we struggle individually against hos
tile economic forces, we are doomed
to failure. If we unite and combine |
our strength and wisdom in meet |
ing these forces, we can overcome
them.

Many of them were simply cabinet

1862 persons on the government

THE INDEX OF TOWN LIFE

Any book of history or description
needs an index, where you find where
to look for the facts or information
you desire. With such an index, the
book becomes far more valuable.
You can turn at once to the page
you want. Otherwise you would
have to wade through the whole
book to locate it.
The newspaper is the index of
town life. 1t saves an enormous
amount of searching. 1t tells you
what is going on in the field of en-
tertainment and instruction. 1t in
forms you where you can find bar
gains. 1t tells you who has things
for sale, who wants jobs, who de-
sires help. You save time and money
in consulting this index in its every
issue.

TURNING ON THE COOLER

Homes located in regions having
cold winters are usually provided
with heaters, consisting OF furnaces
or stoves which assure comfort
through the frigid months. Will the
time soon come, when the well equip
ped home will be expected also to
have a cooler, an air conditioning
apparatus for hot weather?
The very high temperature of re-
cent weeks prevailing this summer
in many states, have led people to
seek every possible means of relief.
Some of them sprinkle the mattresses
before going to bed. Some sleep in
cool easements. Some tie pieces of
ice to the wrist with handkerchief,
which has a cooling effect for half
an hour. Cakes of ice are put in
automobiles with good effect.
People who have suffered through
these intensely hot spells read with
keen interest of the development of
air conditioning devices. If they
travel long distances, they have per-
haps enjoyed dining, lounge, or other
cars which were artifically cooled,
and were a wonderful refuge in
crossing hot territory.
If we could have period of abun-
dant prosperity, it seems likely that
millions of homes would put in air
cooling devices. New inventions have
often helped to end depression.
Something new was discovered or
developed that people felt they must
have. and the spending of all this
money helped loosen up the stag
nant channels of trade. The sale of
great quantities of air conditioning
equipment would help bring back
good times.
People should gain marked physi-
cal benefit if they could thus be
saved from the debilitating effects
of heat Work-people in shops thus
cooled could accomplish more. Such |
would be a wonderful |
thing in stores, theatres, churches,
etc. The perspiring citizen, mop
ping his brow on hot day, would
ind plenty of reasons for entering
hese places.
