SAYS SIX-HOUR
DAY IS DEVIL’S
"New' York," Jan. 26.—John D.
Rockefeller Jr., speaking before the
Fifth Avenue Baptist Church Bible
Class, declared a universal six-hour
working dayy would b a bad thing
for the individual, for so many peo
ple would find their idle time taken
care of by the “devil.”
“When we hear people talking
ing about the six-hour day.” Mr.
Rockefeller said, “we have to stop
and wonder what would happen. I
tell you, don’t believe many of us
could afford t.o hav that much idle
tme on our hands.
“When my children ask me some
times, ‘Papa, why are you always
so busy? Why have you always so
many things to do?’ I reply, and not
without a good bit of interest and
seriousness, that I keep busy be
cause I realize that the devil has
lots of work for idle hands.
—Atlanta Georgian.

And oh! that eye was in itself a soul!

THE LEAGUE OF
NATIONS FORMED
On January 10th, 1920, a memor
able day, the formalities necessary
to launching a League of Nations
were completed at Paris, and four
teen countries of the globe became
parties of the pact. The United
States, which so effectively aided in
winning the World War, and whose
President had been so strenuous an
advocate of the League, was not one
of the sibnatories. The great ex
periment was begun without com
prising in its membership the nation
which, as universally believed, would
be its strongest stay and most likely
to assure its success. The first ses
sion of the League was called for
January 16 by President Wilson, as
provided by the Treaty, but no
American representative was in at
tendance. There was a widespread
belief, however, that the United
States would not long remain aloof
from the world union.
TAKE YOUR HOME
PAPER FIRST
The nwspaper in a man’s home
town is of first importance to him
and his family. In it he will find
neivs that pertains to the wlfare of
his city and his business and it is the
greatest factor in building up that
per and reads it carefully he will be
come more fully indentified with
that city and its interests. He will
boost his home paper and boost the
town and always take pride in every
movement undertaken in his home
town. The following article from
the Progressive Farmer is along the
light lines;"
First of all take your home paper,
then your trade paper, and such
magazines, church papers and polit
ical papers as you wish. In spite of
the fact that I edit a farm paper, you
will see . that I put .the county, paper.
first. Ido this bcause a man’s first
great need is to be in touch with his
immediate environment. He cannot
do the work of a good citizen unless
he is in touch with affairs, move
ments and events in his own locality.
If your ceunty paper is'not what it
ought to be, subscribe for it anyhow,
send it items showing neighborhood
progress and improvements, and
help get the editor aroused about all
matters that are needed for the bet
terment of your section and county
as a whole.—Athens Herald.
By both opposers and supporters
of the League, the event of January
10 must be regarded as one of the
most remarkable in history. It rep
resents the greatest concerted effort
ever made by the nations to prevent
war and to settle international dif
ferences in peaceful ways. The
League’s constitution is admittedly
full of defects, as was the American
Constitution when it was adopted,
but these can be, and should be,
remedied as experience shall dictate.
As an instrument the covenant is
crude, but it marks a long move for
ward in international relations.
Will the League succeed, ot fail?
That depends on the extent to which
its members shall earnestly and sin
cerely cooperate in compassing its
ends; on the degree in which peal
ously, distrust and a grasping spir
it shall be repressed, and friendli
ness rule the eague’s council and as
sembly. The progress of this new
venture, involving so many wonder
ful possibilities, will be watched with
a good deal of skepticism and yet
with many good wishes from the
lovers of humanity.—Leslies.
