GETTING SOFT7

Are we getting soft? With all our
insistence on air conditioning these
DAYS one wonders how the old tim
ers ever lived in these parts. All
of which shows to go you" that
once we know what thing is, when
II is good, we cannot be satisfied
without it.
We talk about the Simple life"
and the good old days" when peo-
pie had less, knew less, lived and
liked it and were just as well off
as we are. The same folk today re-
fuse to live as they did then
The first folk out in this section
didn't have an electric fan. The
cool spot was in the shade. They
would labor with a palm fan TO
strike up a breeze when nature
failed along that line. But they liv-
ed through even the hottest wealth
er and likely complained less about
the heat than we do today. Then
came the electric fan. Everybody
had to have one When they i'm
proved electric fans they had to
have those Then came the air
conditioning era. We work fast to
get the things running before heat
over-takes US. Cant live without
them"--and yet humanity lived
here a long time with out any cool
ing devices.
No one has any objections. We
are willing to take all the solid
comfort and refreshment we can get
hold of whether it comes in fan,
an air conditioner, an ice cream
cone. a cold drink-any of these
are welcome. They may make US
soft,-but at least during the sum-
mer we are willing to be soft.
SAFE EITHER WAY
Our civilization is a wonderful
thing. We are rugged up now so we
can be made warm without effort
In winter and cool in summer. Gas,
electric power and steam do the
job better and there is no wood to
cut and no ashes to carry out.
And when old "Sol" turns on the
heat we turn on the blower" We
will be alright so long as We have
these things to depend on but if
we ever have to do without them
1t will be just too bad.
GRADUATION
It Is that time of year when the
sweet sixteen year old graduate

how one little head can hold it all.

The Coolidge examiner. [volume] (Coolidge, Ariz.) 1930-current, 1938-05-26

The great thing about knowledge
is that when it comes to you
brand new, it seems wonderful
stuff. We feel important because
we have been breaking out-worn
shells and have begun to expand
The same wonderful feeling is ex'
perienced so long as one seeks and
finds new knowledge-new to you.
Life only becomes dull when we
take the attitude that we know
enough.
1t would be a wonderful thing If
the men and women of middle age
could keep the same appetite for
knowledge they have when they
are Of school age. They do to a
certain extent but too often 1t is
over Swallowed by the necessity of
making a living and then later buri-
ed under a blanket of dull care and
responsibility.
1T ALL DEPENDS
Many graduates feel that they are
equipped to go out and turn the
world over. 1t would be we'll for
them to remember that old people
know as much or more and haven't
turned the world over-yet. Such
a realization would help to soften
the effects of early defeats. 1t
would help them to expect much
in life but not too much.
Along with what we think we
know" we should carry hunk OF

satisfied. mot failure but low aim
