Dayid's
NewYear's
Inspiration

N AVID had escorted Dorothy
IL May to the New Years grand
ball for the last three years
and they had danced the old year
out and the New Year in, while
whispering sweet "nothings" into
each others ears. But this year
David was possessed with the New
Years spirit. He felt strong de-
sire to make someone else happy.
what on, earth is the matter late
ly, David, you seem to be so ex-
uberantly happy" spoke mother, in
her kindly observant way. Has
Dot promised to marry you, or are
you contemplating a proposal from
herr"
Something better than that,
mother. I am planning New Years
resolutions" replied David.
Several days before the great holt
day, David found himself in large
department store, buying a new
gown for his mother. He felt rather
out OF place in a ladies' dress Sec
ton, but with the aid Of an under
standing saleslady, he soon found
Just the thing, golden brown floral
design, his mothers favorite color.
Then he thought of slippers to match
and pretty nosegay to pin upon
her dress, and he was quite finished.
He left the store simply bursting
with enthusiasm. Just as he turned
the corner toward home, he ran
into Dorothy. "Why Dot, I'm SO glad
to see you"
Looks like you have been shop
ping, Davy."
Eyes, but l have something inn
portant to ask you, Dot. Would
you mind having your brother Joe
see you to the New Years ball? !
have something very important to
attend to first, but I'll be there
later"
"Why David Merely, what do you
mean?" said Dot, Indignantly. Are
you really breaking the spell OF our
annual rendezvous! Then, before he
could reply, she contlnued Win pre-
tended Indifference. Very well,
I'll 60 with Jean Raft. ] know he'll
take me. l suppose you are driving
Dolly for a ride. Well, you are
welcome to her. Good-byl"
Voices and laughter proclaimed
the approach OF another happy New
Year, as David came charging into
the cozy living room where his
mother was just finishing the home
paper.
II have your things laid out,
Davy, your best shirt and favorite
tie"
you are always SO thoughtful,
mother, never thinking Of yourself, ;"

Pleasure Giving
Talking to Advantage of Others
and Joy to Ourselves in 1897

T ALKING is the recognized
\ medium Of communication be-
tween persons who are together
or who, being absent, use a tele-
phone. 1t is unfortunate having
such a marvellous medium at our
command that we so often fail to
put it to the use worthy of its
value. 1t is possible to send a
glow of happiness through the lis
tener when we speak merited
words Of appreciation. It is pos
sible to solace those in sorrow by
words of comfort spoken from the
heart. 1t is possible to make joy
doubly gladstone by expressing
our happiness in the good fortune
OF others. Through talking to our
children we can spur them on to
do fine things, or encourage them
in worthy resolves. In short the
good we can do by talking in
the right spirit is inestimable.
BY talking in the right way we
bring good to others and joy to
ourselves.
TOO Much Talk"
It Is when we swerve from the
best use Of the spoken word that
we drag it down and harm both
ourselves and our hearers. There
is an expression ''too much talk"
which is significant OF this very
thing. The words speak for them
selves, declaring that 1t would be
advisable to cease saying the
things we are. 1t is never said
OF good words. OF them we could
say: Let us have more talk of the
same sort, it is needed.
Have you ever considered how
much is said when derogatory talk
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1936-12-31

is going ONT Words are. spoken
and reiterated over and over
again, as if by repetition the I'm
pleasant things would be in
creased. Unfortunately this is
what happens. Unkind or unfriend-
ly conversation, by some perverse
twist of human nature, is sure
to be repeated, and usually with
embellishments. Either the one
who repeats it cannot believe her
ears, and wonders if anyone else
knows about the unfortunate cir
cumstances, or else she finds
strange pleasure in repeating
SANDER. 1t may be the derogatory
words are against someone she
dislikes. 1t may be they are
about total stranger. II the talk
was commendatory repeating it
would foster fine things. Good
things should be given frequent
repetition.
:, Pleasure Giving In 1887
We all could add 80 much to the
pleasure and joy of living during
the new year 1887, il we would set
a watch on our talk, and by \
wishful determination use this
great means at our command to
help others. 1t is one of the things
that costs nothing and yet which
can do such an endless amount of
good. It is a way open to all
alike.

said David, as he chuckled, con-
templating the great surprise.
Some hours later David appeared,
quite ready for the evening. He
did really look charming and moth
err did not hesitate in telling him so.
I'm off," he shouted, and then
he was gone.
But it was not long before mother
heard the loud peal of the door bell.
who in the world can that be on
New Years ever" thought she, hur-
rying to the door. She stepped
back in surprise as she saw David,
himself, standing there smiling.
What is it, my boy, have you
forgotten something?"
mo, MOTHER am your gallant
knight, come to take you to the New
Years ball. The cab, without,
awaits your pleasure, Madam
And David laughed merrily. They
both roared with laughter.

ROOM"
Although she did not comprehend
what it was all about, she climbed
the stairs with vague misgivings.
But when she beheld the beautiful
outfit her son had selected for her,
she stood still and stared.
The silence was broken by David
shouting impatiently from below
Hurry, mother, or we shall be
late for the BALL" =,
Mother called out, "All right
dear" as she slipped into the new
inery, truly feeling like girl again.
AS she pinned the flower upon her
iress, she marveled at David's in
genuity.
An hour later David and his moth
er arrived at the New Years ball.
Dorothy spied them first and came
charging over, flushed and excited.
"Oh. Davy, can you ever forgive
met" she sighed, beaming upon
aim, adoringly.
David's reply was drowned out
by the Happy New Year wishes on
ali sidessof them, but his eyes ex-
pressed the 10y Of an inspiration

MAN AND MACHINE AGAIN.

Many thoughtful social economists will wager that 1886 will be remembered less by the election or defeat of Roosevelt or Landon the schsm in the American Federation of Labor than by the demonstration at Stone vile Miss of mechanical cotton picker-that worked.
 Single inventions have in times past wrought revo- uonary social changes. The factory system for in- stance gained great impetus by development of the steam engine.
 But the effect of the cotton picker, like the effect of the cotton gin, destined to be felt heavier in the southern states than anywhere.
 In the south are concentrated several millions of negroes who have been major factor in the cotton in dustry since its beginning. They have supplied the cheap labor that matched the climatic and soil condi- ons to make cotton producing center unrivaed else where.
 In the years immediately before and after the uonary war the slavery question heading toward solution Cotton was not then the tremendous crop it later became Even with slave labor the cost of sep arating seed and fiber by hand was tremendous Then came the cotton gin invention in 1793 which, one his- toran said, fixed the institution (of slavery) firmly on the south.'
 War ended slavery but many southerners will tell you that the position of the negro in the rural south one of almost complete dependency upon the white landholder who often provides him cabin, bit of garden land and tricke of money for his periodic labor in the cotton fields.

"AS WENT ALASKA so WENT THE NATION'

It appears that the old proverb of How goes Maine goes the nation" has been reegated to the dis card. In its place offer as goes Alaska, so goes the nation"
 Shortly following the Alaska election in Septem- Der, Democratic chairman James A. Farley suggested that the Maine prophecy be discarded and Alaska be used as the barometer. The preponderance of demo- cras in Alaska in voting confidence in the New Deal by better than two to majority reflected in the national elections throughout the States, Tuesday.
 There can be quoted good reason how Alaska could the barometer. The residents of Alaska come from nearly every state in the union. Their families, friends, relatives, are usually in close communication with them nowadays. It is not unbelievable that AL askas decision to go democratic was brought about through the close touch which it maintained with the States as regards to the many non-partisan voters throughout the Territory

 Cries for suppression of the invention seem like beating the kettle to off devils. The invention here. Not only is it here, but it is abroad, being demonstrated in Russia.
 Economists challenge anyone to show that labor saving inventions brought permanent disaster to any people But it is hard to see how the next dozen national administrations escape the tremendous task of preparing several million southern laborers to take up tasks perhaps far removed from the picking of cotton at which they have been employed for genera tionS.
 John and Mack Rusts invention may knock $1O to S20 bale off the cost of putting the market bale of cotton now worth around $60. If that proves true it will dsplace hand picking just as the mechanical harvester displaced the sickle and the cradle in the wheat feld.-Exchange.
