as we may for the time's when every farm was .a kingdom of its own,
•the day has come when farmers mustlwork*'tdgefeher. with -their fel-
„low citizens. All manner of regretting will not =. bring .back the
,'vjllage with its host of carriage buijdei’s apd. cabinet makers and
.■blacksmiths and bakers and cobblers and harness makers. These
.are no more to be recalled than afo the days pf the saw miller and
the potash maker.and the charcoal buimer. Buch workers served
their day and when there was no demand for their product, or be
cause their product was superseded, they ceased to function.
Still less will times be righted by condemning wholesale our
r .present way of doing things. Folk who condemn the modern car
'for being the cause of our financial worries should look up the re
cords of the covered buggy era. Human nature is substantially the
■same .as when Noah built his Ark and when Solomon went by the

Normalcy will be found by’each man’s vigorously pulling him-

Serious minded, men are not complaining abojit hard times.
There arc farmers within rifle shot of Exeter who found 1929 the.
- best year in their existence. They’re not talking about what' they
-did. They pulled themselves together and are now busy making
^3till more money; There are business men who are making pro
gress. They’re not gambling. They’re not watching the other
'■ fellow?' They’re studying the needs of the hour and they're trad
ing with the fellow who pays as he goes.
- There’s fai' too much talk about hard times. There’s been far
to much of the sit-up-and-sit and not enough of get-up-and-get.
- We’ve listened far too long to the raven and not’ enough to the
“Cheer up! Cheer up!” of the jolly robin. Gray matter and elbow
’.^grease and knee action will find the only normalcy that's worth the
