On Being Public Spirited

Is a philosophical citizen an plain fool! isdt
school buildings, public buildings, paved streets ano
other public improvements a little wacky! EDITOR LN-
tIeton Upshur, of Greenwood, who by the way mas
done more than his share along this line, Is neginhlhs
to think so. "You know it's funny he wrote IN ms
Greenwood Commonwealth, 'but there's a lot OF 1olKs
who boller about what ought to be done, and what snouId
he done, who won't do anything for the community tneh,
selyes. We've COTTON flood protection, good roads, ana
things like that by the help of folks who .pro1t from
them very little, while the folks who profit the most
have sat on the sidelines and jeered most OF Che ume'
or found fault with the folks who were doing the WORK
I'VE begun to wonder what anybody wants to DO any
thing for the public after all. Maybe it would be bettcT
If everybody lust attended to the job right in front OF
him and let the community matters alone"
The public spirited fellow may be a fool, as Mr..
Upshur suggests.
But then if that is true what we wanted Santa
Claus to bring us for 1910 was more fools in Durant.
Show us a town without public-spirted individuals
and we will show you a place that is pretty bad 10
live in. In a town where everyone is so self-saus1led
that all everyone does is tend strictly to their own Dusl-
mess there cant be any real progress or prosperity.
And if there is no prosperity the people would De
40 deep in a rut they wouldn't know how to enjoy II.
The folks who have plenty Of things to do to keep
them busy but who take time off to help IN a worthy
cause for the community are the folks that make a
community a good, wide-awake town, a place people
IKE to live In.

The editor of the Pontotoc Progress tells this story:
A new Methodist preacher was welcomed to town
following the South Mississippi Conference Said the
country editor: methodist preachers are the most UNI
derpaid and overfed bunch in the world. Next to the
carnival folks and the bean pickers, they are the mos1
transient of the transcients. They get shuffled around
more than the fifth ace in a crooked poker game. Every
couple of years Tor about the time their salary ge1s
we Methodists hold conference and make %reappolnt-
nents. The Lord calls 'em, but the bishops, presiding
elders and stewards play politics to see where Hell

on sending the Rev. E. S. Lewis back to Durant.

Army Comes 10 Defense
OF .50-CaIiber Gun

The War Departments Ordnance
Bureau yesterday came to the de-
fense of the .50-caliber machine gun
as an effective weapon against mod
ern tanks and armored cars.
Some news reports of the recent
demonstrations at Aberdeen prov
ing ground stressed the fact that
the fire from the machine guns was
unable to stop a robot tank.
This is an entirely erroneous con-
clusion," ordnance officials said. The
firing at Aberdeen proving ground
by a cavalry unit equipped with the
.50-caliber machine gun was entirely
for demonstration purposes. they
explained, and no armor- piercing
bullets were used. "It was consid-
cred that the demonstration very ef-
fectively accomplished its purpose, !"
q statement read.
Tracer ammunition only was used,
It, was explained, so that the specta-
tors could obtain a vivid picture of
the high rate of fire and accuracy
that could be developed against a
rapidly moving tank. Armor-pierc-
ing bullets were not fired, it was
said, to avoid the great damage and
possible destruction Of vital parts of
the tank.
The .50-caliber machine gun was
developed several years ago as q
principal weapon against tanks. Be-
cause OF the use of tracer bullets,
which cannot pierce armor, ord
nance officials discount the claim
that the tank used in the demon
stration proved itself invulnerable
to this weapon"
