Bragg ’ APASAESIPIATTS) See iioras BIA! LATE} ie gel iat - The small country pastor has been blamed for much of the illiberality and mistaken legislation of the past twenty years. Indirectly he is responsible in a}! ea jarge measure, but the real blame should! #¢ BY be placed where it belongs, on the shoul- ders of the political leaders who have used him as a catspaw, and encouraged him in crusades of a political nature, which aided these leaders in retaining political power, which they used for their own selfish ends. ‘They cared nothing for personal liberty, so Jong as they themselves were at liberty to do as they pleased with the affairs of the country. 3 _ Country pastors have a hard life and they make it harder for themselves’ by permitting themselves to be used poli- tically. They are as a rule men who sacrifice @ great deal for their work. . They are men of education and culture. They are men of intelligence. For the most part, they are men of deep emotional feeling. They spend years of their lives in training for their calling and they are imbued with all the reactions of the old martyrs éo religious faith.

There’s something in the advertise- ments of The Citizen daily to interest yqu. at ok Payee Dr, Vizetelly says the average person fuses only one-tenth of his brains, which is our-ides of false economy. By “marginal lands” we assume Mr. Roosevelt means those golf course margins commonly known as the “rough.” Some debtors consider it against their principle to pay the interest, and against their interest to pay the principal. Miami has something like seven weeklies, but one never hears of them, for a weekly where a daily paper is published is never taken seriously. A useful jig saw puzzle are: the hun- dred and one parts of a watch scattered all over a table, and when we observe Watchmaker McConnell gather them one by one. into acomplete watch that will keep accurate time day in and day out, we wonder at man’s ingenuity. et Some men are successful chiefly be- cause they didn’t have the “advantages” others had. Nothing is more selfish and self-aceusing than the statement by suc- cessful men so often heard: “I had a hard time in my youth and I am going to see that my children won't go through the same thing,” Then they go on pampering their children, and give them no adequate ; training to do their share of life's work, + with inevitable resuit always the same— failures. Who is to blame? Certainly not the children. That the sum of $5,000,000,000 asked of the people through congress by the president is no small change comes to visualization more readily or more com- prehensively when stated in millions. A billion is 1,000 millions, , Ayd of this sam Key West asks but $10,000,000, ‘still teav- ing $990,000,000 for other improvements. This numeration is according to the system of the French and most continental nations as well as the United States, but according to the calculation of the English and Ger- man system a billion is a miltion of mil- lions. If our system gives us this so-called inflated money, what is English or German money caicalated by their method to be called? the broader questions of the times, They are trained to be dogmatic—to believe that the line of demarkation between right and wrong is distinct and defined by. limits within which it is not possible for human nature to remain, enone The country pastor is trained early | and turned loose with definite ideas of con- duct which in the majority of instances are hopelessly behind the progress of the | age. Crusades against card playing, danc- ing; attendance at the theater, modes of dress, Sabbath observance, yse of alcohol, tobacco and many other things,.even in- cluding hours of walking and sleeping, all have had their supporters in the rural clergy. And on this support unscrupulous politicians have successfully traded. Tt is to.be hoped that in the future our pasters will try to study public ques- tions from a human rather than’ a dog- matic point of view. j If they do, there will be a happier, and more efficient future for them and their work. 4 : Not only “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s” but let Caesar do his own work. THE COST OF WAR It is estimated that the World War has cost the United States to date 51 billion dollars. President Coolidge once estimated that before it is paid for in full the total cost will be more than 100 billion, or about the present value of all the states west of the Mississippi. The 51 billion already spent is too great a sam for the mind to comprehend. One writer tries to illustrate it, but very vaguely, by saying that if someone had be- gan throwing away dollars at the birth ef Christ and had continued to throw them away at the rate of one a minute until the present, without stopping for rest or sleep, he would only now be starting on the second billion. Then to throw away the. remainder of the 51 billion would take an additional 95,000 years. Hla? This vast sum, if invested at 5 per cent interest, would yield an income of more than two and a half billion a year, er enough to run the federal government in approved bureaucratic style. BETTER GET MARRIED If statistics recently compiled by Dr. William F. Ogburn of the University of Chicago, are to be accepted as accurate, those who desire to retain wealth, sanity, and even life itself, should get married if they are not already that way. He declared that most of the inmates of poorhouses and insane asylums are un- married; also that the death rate for single men and widowers is twice as high as that for married men. it has often been asserted that mar- ried men live longer, but_a cynic once de- clared that this was not literally true, as “it enly seemed longer.” However, Dr. ‘Ogburn’s researches seem to bear out the idea that married life is’ really conducive te longevity. To be on the safe side, therefore, a young fellow had better get married; pro- vided, of course, he can find someone who is willing to assume the rele of party of the second part. IN DAYS GONE BY Happenings Here Just 40 Years Ago Today As Taken From The Files Of The Citizen County officials announced to- day that a more serious investi- gation is to be made in the cases of the three girls who were sent to the Girl's Home at Ocala, sn y lurday, if evidence can be found to justify reopening of the case. The girls are 12, 14 and 16 years and were arraigned in juvenile} court on @ petition charging their delinquency. The juvenile judge| decided they were incorrigible and vicious, and committed them.
