THE CASE OF TWO MEN
Take the case of two men, John
and James. They do the same kind
of work and get the same pay. When
one has a job the other has a job.
When one is idle the other is idle.
Last summer they had a fair amount
of work. James saved $1'50 and put
it in the bank, John bought a radio
and some new furniture. In the I
winter both are out of work. As'
James had $150 in the bank he was
not eligible for relief. As John had
no money he was put on relief, Ip
the spring John and James are both
without money, but John has his
radio and furniture, while James has
nothing.

Gandhi has discovered, as has the rest of the world that Bri
tain, so far from being the foe of India, is her “best friend. He has
found out that India’s enemies are the foes within her own house

■Cautious Sandy is giving the corn ground a. day or two’s extra
cultivation and the grain the best spudding of weeds' that he knows
how. He is quite sure that he’ll need all the feed he can get for
his beasties. He scents better prices.
Cautious Sandy says that there’s something funny, about the
way times are. He finds that there’s a bargain sale of medicine
when he’s no seek and a big price fer wheat when his bins are
empty. He says there’s no accounting for things.« • • w * • • •
Cautious Sandy is worried by the disappearance of the pools
from the fields. As long as water was to be found therein his
bawth cost him noting. Now he find# that getting water tor his
ablutions involves an awfu’ wear and 'tear on the pump.*#♦*$**$
Before we can achieve permanent external prosperity we must
attain to inward goodness. Gandhi sees this and is acting accord
ingly. We require something far grander than the technical or
statistical prosperity. How much better is a man than a sheep?* * ♦ * * * * *
We’re glad that that car stolen from Exeter has been found
and restored to its owners. But what of the thieves? Are they
still at large? Till they are caught and punished the duty of the
crown officers is not even appoximately done. The offence was
in the theft.********
HE PHOTOGRAPHED HIMSELF
Circus man, Hitler, evidently had heard someone saying some
thing before he made his speech that he. intended to be the master
piece by which he intended setting the nations at each other’s
throats. 'Someone pared his claws till 'they were as soft as downy
pillows are; toned down his leonine roar to the plaintive beat of a
motherless lamb and transformed his tiger spring to the leap of a
bunny cottontail. Stern reality revealed him as the chief clown in
Europe.******* *
The world stands with ilncovered head before the magnificent
attitude of Gandhi. He discovered that Britain was not his
country’s enemy. He saw the injustice of one Hindu class to an
other was her colossal wrong. Against this wrong he threw
all -he had. His ideal he is carrying to the very borderland of
death itself. There is nothing that he is holding back. He be
lieves that life is- of no value to him while wrong gnaws at the vi
tals of his people. Against the wrongs of his day and of his
native land, he is throwing his life in silent but awful protest. No
nation, no race can resist moral and spiritual force so aweinspiring.
Tidal waves and earthquake shocks are trifles light as air by com
parison. For humanity not to be moved by an achievement so
unique as Gandhi’s is, is to anticipate the awful condemnation, of
the Judgement.Day.

' ’ NECESSITY
Necessity knows no law. Grim facts smile at precedents. Im
pending hunger and ruin waste no .time on the precepts of men long
in their graves1, however wise these ancients may have been in their
day and no matter how efficiently they served their generation.
We are reminded of these fundamentals in the action of Presi
dent Roosevelt in taking his stand by the British Empire in warn
ing belligerent nations that they must behave themselves in the in
terests of the world’s good. “Beware of entangling European al
liances.” said George Washington. “The peace of Europe is the
peace of the world!” said Ramsay McDonald and President Roose
velt in the interests of welfare of the race takes his stand beside
the British Prime .Minister, without mental reservation of any
kind. A hampering tradition was strapped that an emergency
might be met. A new era thereby dawned for the good of the
world.
This action was not a matter of sentiment. It was something
done in view of a grim and appalling necessity. Whine men were
plowing and sowing and merchandising and bringing to light the
hidden mysteries of nature and science, evil men at the same time
were at work doing their best to destroy all the good that the race
has achieved by milleniums of toil and sacrifice. What to these
vandails were the tears and labours of the choicest of the race since
the dawn of the first morning, provided they might nave their de
structive way. What to the biggest showring man of ten centuries
was all the good the race had won provided he might take tlie salute
of youth who were marching, marching, marching, nut utterly un
aware of where they were going? War to him was a jolly holiday,
To the men who would make the munitions for the tragedy* the ap
proaching calamity was to be the occasion for coffer-filling and sel
fish aggrandizement. But now we have grounds for hoping that
Uncle fiam and John Bull, under God, have put an end to this wick
edness and have driven to fitting limbo the enmity that never
should have existed between children of a Common stoick and heirs
fo a common noble tradition. Necessity, economic, social, moral,
Spiritual bowed to no law, ‘ Common sense triumphed. Men heed
ed the better angels of their natu're. The show ring master has
been compelled to jump through his own hoop.

You have but 1 short life 2 live;
It pays, son 2 B' wise;
Hark 2 each foot, and bell, 2 boot—

The Exception
A small man was holding forth on
humanitarianism.
“My friends,” he said, “you should
never in any circumstances strike a
child. I’ve brought up six boys my
self, so I know what I’m talking
about.”
“Six boys!” exclaimed one of the
audience. “And do you mean to
say you haven’t laid a hand on one
of them?”
“Never,” declared the lecturer
“except in self-defence.”
NOT SO DUMB
In a small town in the south there
was a lad who had the reputation of
not being very bright. People there
had fun with him several times a
day by placing a dime and a nickel
on the open palm of his hand, ana
telling him to take the pick of the
two. In each case he lad would
pick the nickel, and the crowd would
laugh and guffaw.
A kind-hearted woman asked him
one day, “Don’t you know the dif
ference between a dime and a nick
el? Don’t you know the dime, tho’
smaller, is worth more?”
“Sure, -I know it” he answered
“but they wouldn't try me out on it
any more if I ever took the dime.”

“I was bothered with palpitation of tho heart, and
my nerves were so bad I could not sleep.
1 had several operations which seemed to make me
worse every time.
I was getting desperate and ednfided my trouble to
a friend who recommended me to use Milburn’s
Heart and Nerve Pills. I purchased a box and got
such relief I would gladly recommend them to all
who are troubled aa I was.”
