One year .-ilm Solomon Paliin-ki
enme in tin- rutin tiy from Poland. ;i j
Jew penkiiiR no HurIM!. While I
working hard for a liinjr in a new I
York factory, Dnbimki was told last I
week that he had won the bronze me-'
dnl offered by the National Society
of Colonial Hauirlitci-- of Washington
for the bet patriotic r ay in Eng
lish. He -lulled and went on with hi
Work.
Does the average no:r.lewi-h Amer
ican think he could ko to Russia, or
Poland, not knowing the laiiiruaijo,
and in a year win f if-t prize for n
composition in Uihm.-iii or Polish,
while wotkinjr for a liini in a fac
tory? Think that over.
Pabin-ki in hi-s paper itiotrtI
Green's "Ili-toiy of the Ktiijli-h Pen
pie." He found time to read that
while working m the factory.
If we spent mole time studying the
good things in other-, there would be
less race and religious hate.
ON (ir.TTINO A IIEAUINO
The mail with a gnevonce is a nuis
ance. The man with a plan is wel
come, j
Cirievanres anno other people, but
fail to inteir-t them. The tone of,
voice ha-- a faint wad in it, and no-1
body hl'es to he.ir " wail.
Some public ti former- make the
same mi-tak-s a- a man wi'h a griev
ance. The fault- they point out are1
worth nothing. The uh-ii the -nipe
are fair game.
The failuie of tln-e earne-t nitus
lies in ti.e unf.iihr.g gli mil they carry!
and spread. (
They leave all the good time- to
the sinr.e"-. They get no fun out of!
their fight-.
We do not need a prophet to tell us
that some of the londition- of life
are sour ami haul.
In suggesting amendments to the.
common lot. let the reformer be gen
ial as well a- earnest .
Best of all, let the reformer- bring
a plnn instead of a grievance.
WHAT HAPPENED TO AIA'IN
YOKE
Alvin York, America's greatest hero
in the world war. lias had another
streak of luck. Some people would
call it that but other- may give it
another name,
York has been in debt, and for two
years hi- crop- have not been profit
able. He wa- offered a big sum to
go into the movies, but de declared
he would go hungry and cold before
he would commercialize the record
that he made in France.
The other day the Rotary Club of
Nashville took up a collection and
paid off the mortgage on the hero a
little farm. The wolf has been driv
en from his door.
Some people may call this luck.
Others will claim that it was the re
ward of faith. What do you think
obout it?
WHAT ABOUT RUSSIA?
Ninety-nine out of every hundred
Americans oppose -nvietUnt. as they
have been told that it is practiced in
Russia. Americans haw no patience
with a government that does not un
dertake to furr.i-h its citizens with
protection of life and property and to
guarantee freedom in the pursuit of
happiness.
Are conditions there a- bad ns we
have been told? Many people nro
asking these questions in all earnest
ness. The belief is growing that thcro
has been misrepresentation, either
knowingly or unintentionally.
The truth will come out eventually,
of course, and if the people of thi
world find that they hao been de
ceived they will tesent it.
