“Give Light ami the People
Will Find Their On n Way."
Let Nothing You Dismay
"TTHAT’S today, my fine fellow?"
W called Mr. Scrooge as he leaned
out of his window on a crisp, jovial
morning.
"Today?" called back the boy ad-
dressed, “Why, it’s Christmas Day."
So it is. And just as that selfish
old miser of Dickens' immortal "Christ-
mas Carol" had learned the meaning of
this day of days before it was too late,
so, It would seem, the human family
today needs desperately to learn it
now.
What Scrooge heard from the phan-
toms on Christmas Eve was that hu-
man benevolence, tolerance and kind-
ness are more than mere words. They
| ceremony, and that as a compromise It
| was decided to have the military forces
| alone provide the spectacle, on the the-
ory that they are equipped to march in
any kind of January weather.
Washington ministers justly are pro-
testing against this wholly military dis-
play.
Ours, they point out, is a country
dedicated to peace; and the least con-
cession that should be considered there- |
fore is a peace float.
THAT idea could be indorsed "in
1 principle.” But since the inevitable
figure for a peace float is a goddess
draped in cheesecloth, and since cheese-
cloth in January is a bit cruel, why
not compromise on the State Depart-
ment?
After All, that's our real agency of
peace. From it have come, during the
i first four years of Roosevelt, signal
successes in promoting friendship
abroad; achievements which have con-
i tributed as much to our nation's de-
fense as all our combined armed forces.
While they may not like it, in view
of the probable weather, nevertheless
we nominate the “career boys." With
their top hats and cutaways, striped
I trousers, spats and canes, they will be
as colorful, as any other unit in the
parade and, we hope, more symbolical
of the next four years. 1 '
And why not also a division from
the CCC, bearing, instead of sidearms,
the shovels and axes they have wielded
| so manfully in the war to conserve our
| natural resources?

Help For the Insane
THE three able business men who

to hold down state expenses, have rec-
ommended that Texas spend more
money in 1937 to improve its care of
the insane in state hospitals.”

The Big Trouble With Santa i

Too Many of Him
4--•
By HEYWOOD BROUN
(HRISTMAS is my favorite holiday,
U but- there are two aspects of the
festival which annoy me. I hate com-
ical Christmas cards, and I’m ‘awfully
bored with the little girl who wrote
to the editor to ask if there was a
Santa Claus. The name, as I remem-
ber, was Virginia O’Hanlon, and the
paper the Sun.
The letter was writ-
ten a good many years
ago, and Virginia
O'Hanlon undoubtedly
knows better by now.
But in her childhood
her fair and honest
question happened to
fall to a paper which
has always been sold
on the Santa Claus
tradition. Indeed, it
_________went so far In this
Mr. Broun tendency jn the pres-
ent year as to pin all its election pre-
dictions on the Literary Digest and
Dave Lawrence.
The Sun has invariably been strik-
ingly accurate about Maine and Ver-
mont. but little Miss O’Hanlon found
out that it is inclined to support myths
as far as the rest of the country is
concerned. If only the child had re-
ceived a full and fair answer she might
have grown up to be a sort of female
Farley. But if you start fooling chil-
dren early they may grow up to be

Positive in Views
Samples will suggest this new
flavor of Holmes', genius:
"The great thing is to have an
eye for the essential. If a boy
gets his fingers pinched between
two inward revolving wheels, it
probably will only distract atten-
tion and bore the reader to de-
scribe the machinery.”
"He (Hegel) could not persuade
me that a syllogasm could wag
its tail. His attempted, transition
from logic to life T think a hum-
bug. (As to his philosophy of law)
he could not persuade me that his
King of Prussia was God.”
"When you come to see me at
Beverly Farms in the summer, we
will, perhaps, try to twist the tall
of the cosmos.”
"Whatever the value of the' no-
tion of forms, the only use of the
forms is to present their contents,
just as the only use of a pint pot.
is to present the beer (or whatever
lawful liquid it may contain), and
infinite mediation upon the pot
never will give you the beer."
Liked Simple Language
"Most things can be said in un-
technical English and it is a great
help to most readers to have them
put so. Few ideas are hard to un-
derstand, but with words, every
group has its own slang but out-
siders are bothered by it."

willingness to co-operate in peaceful
commerce with all nations.

off their fight against the government,
have asked for “an era of good feeling,"
and are expressing an eagerness to co-
operate in passing their new prosperity
around the national table. But, with
all this good-will, what a deal there
is to do here at home!
Staggering tasks lie ahead in un-.
institutions.
Together with this step, the board
has recommended a new hospital to
relieve the crowded condition of the
present five hospitals, more pay to at-
tract competent physicians, and mod-
ernization of the old hospital build-
ings.
This program, when completed,
should enable Texas to give more hu-

and should result in more cures of
mental illness.

Please publish this letter with

Texas a home-owning state.
I believe that this amendment
will go far to solve the ques-
tion of home-owning in Texas.
Here is the proposed amendment
as I have drafted it:
“BE IT RESOLVED BY THE |
LEGISLATURE OF THE
STATE OF TEXAS:
"Section 1. That Article III of
the Constitution of the State of
Texas be amended by adding
thereto a new section to be
known as Section 51-c, which
shall read as follows:
"Section 51-c. In order that
tenantry may be discouraged in
9 Texas, and to correct the eco-
nomic instability resulting there-
from, the Legislature shall have
the power to provide by general
laws, and shall provide under
such regulations as may he
deemed by the Legislature
necessary to accomplish this
purpose, the ways and’ means
whereby all the citizens of Texas
so desiring may become home-
owners and be enabled to pur-
chase from the State a resident

buildings on time payments over
a period of 40 years at a rate
of interest not exceeding two

ferred payments, and may ex-
empt such homes from all tax-

This Is Life
By JACK MAXWELL
H ANGING on the wall in my
• office is a broken dinner
plate. On it is written these
words: "The mute reminder of
a broken promise." To the pass-
er-by, it means but little. To
me, it means much. The "brok-
en promise,” all but wrecked the
lives of two people. So, in the
years gone by, I have refrained
from making promises. .. for.
like ple crusts they are easily
broken.
From that day to the present.
I have never made a promise.
Instead, I say: "I will try.” And,
- that brings us back to the copy
book of boyhood days, when 1
was going to school in the coun-
“An honest endeavor is worth
ten promises.” If you or I make
a promise and fail to make good,
it not only destroys, to a cer-
tain extent, faith in the one to
whom we made the promise, but
within ourself. So, instead of
making a promise, 1 say: “I
will try" . . . for by so doing #
retain my self-respect and that
.of the other fellow.
1 While the two words are quite
I similar in common use; in real
- life there is a vast difference in
their true meaning. With the
coming of the New Year, many
promises will be made: the hus-
band may promise his wife he
will no longer drink booze: the
wife may promise her husband
no longer to 'play the game,' be
— it what it may. But, take this
tip from The Hill-Billy On The
Loose: If you feel that it's nec-
essary that you do a bit of per-
