LEARN TO SAY mo"

Did you ever think what gullible
suckers we voters are?
We know the stOrk doesn't bring
babies. We know the magician doesn't
really pick money out of the air. We know
water doesn't run up hill. But we never
seem to learn that political magic is no diff
ferent from stage magic, except the price
of admission is more.
A good politician can make us think
he picks money out of the air just like a
good magician. But while the politician
holds our attention by promising to give us
something for nothing but our vote, his
band is in our pocket taking out our money
(taxes) to pay for his gift"
Unless we learn to say mo" to the
tempting gifts offered JUS, the political
magicians will promise us free trip to
the moon with golden chariot to ride in
when we get there-but by the time we
arrived, we would have long white whisk-
ers and the pawn broker would have the
chariot land probably our return trip
ticket for the tax lien the political magi-
clans gave him against us.

and not the result of crack pot theory
distributing wealth" even before
somebody has taken the pains 10
create it.
The amount of leisure masses may
enjoy is in exact proportion to the
adoption of the machine to do the
worlds drudgery. But some one says.
The machine has brought us indus
trial civilization with its tyrannous
technique" Ridiculous. Industry is as
old as humanity itself. and actually
antidates agriculture by many gen.
eratIoES. A very considerable amount
of progress had been made in making
tools. sewing up skins for clothing,
and providing simple shelter before
men even learned at all the art of
planting. There is nothing new about
Industry except the ways of doing it.
Much the same thing is true of
Agriculture. Ii is an old art, but we
have learned many new tricks about
IT, Agriculture is very important, al
ways has been. When that first primi-
tive man learned that by plantin5
seed he could get a crop. it changed
his method of living. For the first time.
~ NOoAA oCAIAC 0OHll dIlO llkG IN one
place long enough to get used to il.
The tempo of life began to speed up
with the first rude tool; was set rapid
ly on its way by the first simple har-
vest. and has been progressing ever
since.
Since industry and agriculture have
been inseParably associated from the
first rude beginnings. there is not only
no reason for thinking of them as
separate activities now. but there is
no sense in doing so because il is i'm
possible TO think of them separately.
Loud mouthed individuals, mostly
politicians. try here and there to stir
up antagoniSm between farmers and
industrialists. Unfortunately. we have
with us always the type of Leader"
who is willing 20 sacrifice the welfare
OF followers" for selfish purposes.
Even the sacred precincts of democ-
racy itself hav. been invaded by this
ilk. while education and religion are
not free from the demagogue.
But in truth. there is no way of
thinking of farming in this country
without thinking of industry at the
same time. The two are inseparable.
They have not always understood the
relationship. They have been unkind
to each other. But there is no way to
divorce them without wrecking the
family. The industrialist cannot live
without the farmer. The farmer can
not live without the industrialist
They have problems ir common and
should set about the solutions of
them without paying too much at
tention to panaceaS.
