It Doesn’t Pay to
Be a Grouch
The man who has reached
the conclusion that the world
rejoices in his misfortunes and
that his neighbors find pleas
ure in his own failures is above
all men an object of pity. With
him every man that succeeds is
dishonest, every opportunity is
for the wealthy, every favor
for the few. His vision of honor
and justice is often obscured
and his own limitations magni
fied. He is wholly unconscious
of his own imperfections and
ignorant of his own faults.Such
men cannot see themselves as
others see them, for they are
not self conscious.
A splendid editorial on this
subject in a recent issue of
Farm and Ranch says:
"It is an unfortunate con
clusion when anyone imagines
himself hindred and oppress
ed or when one feels that the
gates of opportunity are closed
against him. Such opinions
close the gates of opportunity
and crush ambition when it
would rise spontaneously.
"The saftst plan when one
entertains such views, is to
search ones self and see if the
difficulties are not with the
man and not the country or the
neighbors. There is opportuni
ty for every industrious man
who is willing to look for it.
The only danger is that we
will not be diligent enough to
seek an opportunity and per
severing enough to follow,
should it get past us. We are
responsible for most of our
own failures, though we may
try to shift the responsibility
upon others. A successful man
does not stop to inquire who
caused him to fail, but takes a

LITTLE ROCK AND THE UNIVERSITY
The city of Little Rock is in
terested in the removal of the
State University to Little Rock
on the same basis that it is in
terested in all moves for the
general advancement of the
State. It has seemed to us that
the usefulness of the State
University at Fayetteville has
been served, that the day for
the “Washington county col
lege” has passed and that a
State institution that annually
comes before the people for
the people’s money should re
turn a greater measure of bene
fit than is done by the Fayette
ville school. Yet,—
The city of Little Rock is not
concerned with removing the
State University unless the peo
ple of the State are of the same
mind as the people of Little
Rock. Unless the State believes
as Little Rock believes, then
the subject of removal would
only be grounds for acrimony
and continued bitter feeling.
The city of Little Rock cannot
afford to selfishly propose re
moval of the State University
or the acquisition of any other
institution if thelocatingofsuch
an institution will mean that
henceforth the forces of the
State will be re-arrayed against
the forces of the city.
new start and finds a way to
succeed.
“The world is kind to those
who look for kindness and con
sideration. There is gloom, dis
content, and bitterness if one
closes his eyes to the light of
cheerfulness and seeksforithese
things. But they are in the life
and character of those who
seek them. The world may
not always pay, if it owes a
man a living, but it always has
a living for those who owe
something to the world and are
willing to earn what they get.”
From all indications the peo
ple of Arkansas are heartily
in favor of moving the State
University to Little Rock under
the plan proposed by the peo
ple of Pulaski county. It is the
logical and sensible thing to
do, and the people would not
like to see the legislature ig
nore this opportunity of secur
ing the site and buildings for
this great institution as a clear
gift to the state. Senator Ed
mondson’s bill for its removal
is a good bill and The Journal
hopes to see it pass.
Pity the man who makes
vulgar remarks about respect
able women. Such remarks are
usually an evidence of a weak

We want no more of that in
Little Rock. We rather would
pursue our own destiny unin
fluenced by consideration of
that sort than to be subjected
to the bitterness that would
come if the people thought
that we were just running a
great big selfish city, and try
ing to make it bigger by sacri
ficing the best interests of the
whole commonwealth.
This State is big enough for
university at Little Rock,
and the university is bigenough
to serve the whole state if lo
cated here But Little Rock is
big enough to get along with
out the university, and partic
ularly is it big enough not
even to try to locate the uni
versity here from selfish rea
sons. A “Pulaski county col
lege” would be worse than a
“Washington county college,”
because we have condemned
the latter and avowed ourselves
free from trying to establish
the former.
Do the people of Arkansas
want the State University here?
If they do, then the city of Lit
tle Rock will build it here,
bonding herself and Pulaski
county for a million dollars for
the removal.—Arkansas Dem

The senate Monday after
noon passed a bill providing
for an appropriation of $36,
000 to buy 9,000 copies of the
new Kirby-Castle Digest of the
state laws. There were only
j four votes against the bill. The
house will probably pass the
bill within a few days. The
state needs a new Digest, as it
has been 13 years since the
last one was issued, and there
has been many changes in the
state laws during that time.

Newark is badly in need" of. It
takes money, push and energy
to get these things, but we can
get them if we go after them
in the right manner. Improve
ments of this kind are worth
every penny they cost, as they
are a permanent benefit to
every man, woman and child
in the community.
Every farmer in Indepen

in live stock should attend the
meeting- of the Arkansas Stock

Rock next week. Stock grow

for the farmer and valuable in

attending this meeting.
One C. T. Davis, a Simp who
writes stuff for the Gazette
just to fill up space, says he
bought a book on “Will Pow

There isn’t anything that
would do that fellow any good.
What he needs is a padded

A real University in Little
Rock should be able to serve
the whole state, and not just a
small portion of it, as the pres
ent University at Fayetteville
is doing. Move the University
to Little Rock and make it a
real University for the entire
state.
The wealthy man who ob
tains his wealth honestly and
uses it wisely is a blessing to
his community. The kind who
obtain wealth by any and all
means and use it purely for
selfish purposes are stumbling
blocks to enterprise and draw
backs to a community.

With $2 wheat, dollar corn,
17-cent cotton, and high prices
for almost everything else
which the soil produces, it is
little wonder that the Amerir
can farmer is prosperous. He
is now able to pay off his mort
gage and buy an automobile.
The government mint is hur
rying the coinage of a big lot
of new half dollars. They are
fine looking new coins but
will buy only about as much
as a quarter would buy a year
ago.

Can the State of Arkansas
afford to reject the offer of
the people of Pulaski county
to erect a million dollar univer

state? We think not.

The peace situation seems to

When you dislike a man, it
is a good rule to try to find out
whether you are to blame or
whether he is to blame.
Don’t think of the oppor

as he puts into his everyday
