Hey! You Newark Boy!
Stop That Whine!
We recently heard a younj
man in Newark make a remarl
which indicated that h<
thought he had the brand ol
misfortune stamped upon him
—that he was “unlucky,” he
could never do any good and
there was no use to try.
We could not help but think
what an awful, horrible mis
take it is for a young man (or
and old one either, for that
matter) to get an idea like
that into his system.
The young man who sees
life from this viewpoint does
himself greater injury than his
worst and meanest enemy
could do him.
To entertain such an idea
is the graVest mistake a man
ever made and he who does it,
not only warps his own mind;
he weakens his own arm; he
lessens his own strength; he
deadens within himself the
Divine gift of hope, and dams
up his own soul against the in
spiration that comes from a be
lief in humanity.
Never yet did success worthy
of the name abide with a man
with a whine in his heart.
A whine is premeditated and
prearranged failure.
A whining voice means a
whining character. It is a
mark of weakness too inex
cusable even to excite pity. The
broadest charity shrinks and
draws back the hand at the
sound of a human whine—a
found more destructive than
the hiss of a serpent.
He who thinks the world is
full of good people, good
things and good fortune, and
that he is going to share in the
good things, is far richer than
the man who thinks to the
contrary.
And the man who believesi
this, will come a great deal;
nearer sharing in the good
things than the one who thinks!
all the good things are for the
other fellow.
If we do not believe that life
holds good things for us, we
make no effort to attain the
good things, hence we sink of
our own dead weight.
We fail because we believe
we are a failure.
This is a big world, a busy
world, and, taken as a whole,
it is a pretty good world—in
fact it is the very best world
that we know anything about.
But there is one thing about
it—the world cares precious
little what you think of its
faults—it rolls on the same—
and if you want to devote your
short span of life to looking
tor knot holes and wasp nests
—well—you will find some!
knot holes and wasp nests, be
cause they are here. But your
grouch and your gloom are not
I going to change the knot hole*
and wasp nests into boquets
and bee-hives.
Get awaj from the wasp
nests. Get out into the sun
shine of hope.
Relieve in yourself. You've
simply GOT to do it if you suc
ceed in life.
Men and women who have
a spark of the Divine in them,
were not made to be whining,
groveling things. They were
made because they were ex
pected to do something; to
labor well and joyously and to
I share in the gifts of Provi
; deuce.
[ If you would win anything,
j (io anything, or be anything,
don’t whine.
Bishop Gpilor, head of the
Protestant Episcopal in Ameri
ca, says that much nonsense
is talked about the young
woman of this period called
“flappers.” Girls today, says
he, are just as good as they
ever were. That is quite true.
| Girls now indicate a little
more freely what they feel than
they used to. That’s the only
difference. They think and
feel just as they always did.
It is said that after a search
of 70 years, so nut South Ameri
can explorers have discovered
a drug that takes all the fear
out of man. What an utterly
disgusting waste of time!.
Folks around Newark have
been making that stuff so long
that even the boys know how
to make it.
Sometimes a fellow asks
us why we do not “publish all
the news.” And if we did—,
the first dose would be enough
to start him after us with a
shotgun.
Every once in a while some
fellow takes a wallop at the
sharpness of Woman’s toungue
—forgetting, of course, the
crookedness of his own.
W. I). Murphy and E. E.
Bonewits of Batesville were in
town today on business.

CONVICTS AND LIQUOR
A truly remarkable result is
Reported in connection with a
recent poll of convicts in 322
penal institutions in the L'nit
ed States on their stand re
garding1 prohibition, for out of
a total ballot of 134,322, only
909 cast their votes against the
eighteenth amendment, while
133,413 voted in favor of it.
Knowing, as one does, both
from experience and statistics,
how great a percentage of the
inmates of these institutions
have become inmates largelj
as a result of the downward
pull of liquor, it really looks as
though the aim of true refor
mation is being accomplished
m them, when more than 99
per cent of the inmates are
willing to repudiate their one
time views in favor of what is
recognized as right and proper
in society.—Christian Science
Monitor.
GETTING IT STRAIGHT
“I taught school among my
own people in the Tennessee
mountains for several years af
ter 1 graduated from college,”
said a Southern lecturer. ‘‘Fun
ny things happened. Hearing a
boy say, ‘1 ain't gwine thar,’ I
said to him, ‘That’s no way to
talk. Listen: “1 am not going
there; thou art not going
there; he is not going there;
we are not going there; you
are not going there; they are
not going there.” Do you get
the idea?'
” ‘Yessur, I gits it all right.
They ain’t nobody gwine.’ ”—
The Outlook.
SOME SPEED
“Rastus, you say you were
Ihere when the shot was
fired?”
“Yessah, Jedge, ah surely
was.”
“But men three squares from
the place of the shooting de
clare you passed them before
they heard the report of the
shot.”
“Dat mought all be, Jedge,
’cause when ah left there ah
was traveling so fast ah made
the sound of dat ’er shot look
like it was a-standin’ still.”
BE CAREFUL
Better be safe than sorry.
Do not take reckless chances.
