There is no person so ‘0 busy as the man who has practically nothing to do. Silence may be ever so wise but it seldom answers perplexing questions. The selfish individual has many ac- ‘quaintances but practically no friends. We wonder what heaven would be like if the vrofessional reformers could plan it. There are people in Key West who seldom read the world’s best selling book, the Bible. The majority was wrong in the time of the Flood and has been wrong several times since. Life is a contest and most of us try to get the answer without doing any work on}- the problem. Religion may be a great world force but it won't do you any good unless you get some of it. “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” And meekly pay the inheritance tax. OS i j There are times when a person ought eto make an extra contribution to the » church of- his choice. = We are never sure that we are right, “Shut we always try to be certain that we ~ are honest in what we think. You reach a certain level of intelli- gence when you are ready to admit that ~~You do not know all the answers. In life it is best to remember that death often strikes without warning and ‘so you might as well live your best.nows Strange how ageing Buroperis .fulb ef}. the youthful spirit of wars. and. alarms, while young America wants only ‘peace. Men must solve their differences by force or by persuasion; there is no third way, and the easier way is always the better way. There is no law to prohibit any of us from doing a kind deed, but kind deeds are getting scarcer because they are less appreciated, The optimist believes that the world Zovill repay h.s contribution to human bet- "terment; investing anything. IMR. BABSON ON CHAIN STORES Roger Babson recently devoted his syndicated column to a searching analysis of the chain store movement. He _ recog- nizes in chain merchandising a modern| distributing invention, and believes that it | is as foolish to try to destroy it as it would be to. break up power machinery. has..reached its peak, in spite of the fact that independent retailers still outnumber he chains 10 to 1—there are about 1,- }-475,000 “free lancers” as compared with 140,000 chain units. Likewise, he feels that the chains are of sound benefit to the consumer and an essential asset to the community, and points out that: “Fair- minded consumers are aware of the fact that chain stores leave money in the com- munity. Landlords know that as tenants, they are extremely valuable.” Of every dollar received by the chains, 97 cents is immediately thrown back into circulation; of the 97 cents, a large part goes to local farmers and _pro- ducers, a sizable portion pays the wages of local employes, and the balance goes for taxes, rent, local advertising, and a score'of other “incidentals.” Three cents is left of the original dollar to cover interest or in- vestment, depreciation, and provide a profit for stockholders! Finally, Mr. Babson concludes that the chains have actually helped the in- dependent: merchandiser: “Alért un- affiliated retailers have modernized their stores. They are now using the same methods by which the chains have suc- ceeded. Many have banded together to get the advantages of large-scale central purchasing.” j As a competitive form of merchan- dising rendering a real public service, the chain stores are entitled to fair treatment the same as independents—no more, no less. EXPECTING TOO MUCH Small-town hotels have been the ob- jects of criticism, ridicule and ‘sneers on the part of their guests from time im- memorial. But probably most of.them are furnishing the best accommodations they can under the circumstances. Travelers who are accustomed to modern conveniences and comforts in larger hotels probably expect too much when they strike a village hostelry. As a reminder of this fact, one coun- try town hotel-keeper placed signs in his | rooms, which read as follows: “This ain’t the Waldorf-Astoria—If it was it wouldn’t be here—You ain’t J. P. Morgan—If you was you wouldn't be here —We know this Hotel is on the bum— Well, how about yourself?” CRIMINALS IN ETHIOPIA From Rome, Italy, comes the news that four Italian workmen were recently exectited by Italian authorities at the scene of their robbery and assassination of five native Ethiopians, who had a food stand on the highway, near Asmara, The only difference between these Italian workmen and the soldiers of Mus- solini is that they committed their crime without orders from a superior officer and with intent te appropriate the loot to their personal benefit. When the Italians went into Ethiopia they organized the murder of defenseless people on a seale of brutal- ity that astounded the civilized world and they went in that unfortunate country for plunder. HERE IS YOUR JOB j There are national and international issues that arouse the interest of in- dividuals but no man or woman, thinking of these problems, should forget the great- est task that exists for any person. Every individual faces life alone and is confronted with the obligations that/ arise from the relationships*of the world, | as well as those that result from religious beliefs. To fit actual living with present responsibilities is a task worthy of. the greatest among us. The development of personality into its full possibility is the immediate occupa- tion of all of us. No sidestepping, no cur- the pessimist doesn't believe in| rent interest and no subversive philosophy ; will be satisfactory. “He feels that the growth of the chains | - 40 living WAaice FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH FIRST METHODIST CHURCH Joe A, Tolie, Pastor Eston and Simonton Streets Yancy Tillman Shehane, Pastor | Eaton Street, between Duval and Simonton Streets Bible School at 10:00 a. m.| “Whether you are hungry or | Allan Robinson, superintendent. jnot, you will feed your body 21 Morning worship at 11 o’clock.’ times a week.
