Never ‘Something for Nothing’
Nearer Perfect Eigger Returns
A Surprise for ElyaK.
No Population Scare.
Charles Fox offers to the United
States Government an engine that
“consumes no gas or other fuel
and runs forever.”
The inventor says, “You just
start her up and let her flicker,”
and he thinks it will bring mil
lions. It won’t bring a cent. A
Power wiser than Charles Fox,
wiser even than Calvin Coolidge,
won’t aliow us to get “something
for nothing.” That would be bad
for us. Therefore there is no per
petual motion, nothing worth hav
ing, for which we don’t give effort
and value in return.
It pays to develop a perfect
thing, from cows to radio. Mw.
H. McK. TwomMy, of New Jer
sey, owns a Guernsey named
Langwater Fairy, No 97979. She
looks like any other cow, but gives
three times as much milk, four
and u half time if as much butter
fat as the average cow. Her amaz
ing record just announced is 18,605
pounds of butter fat in one year.
In that kind of prosperity tjjere is
no speculation, no manipulating,
just plain, simple production of
wealth through intelligent attention
to breeding
Daily the radio offer* something
new. This time it is "broadcast
ing church music for rural wed
dings." The bride, trembling, will
give the last poke at her hair, the
fast tug at her veil. The sexton
will “tune in," and up she will
march, in Farmingdale, N. J., to
the tune of "Faithful and True,”
played in Chicago, 111.
Florida says, “Come." The rich
will answer, “I’m hurrying." Have
you an income? Florida offers you
attractions,over and above the fine
climate. Florida intends to put
into her constitution a provision
that will exempt incomes and in
heritance Jroig all taxation. This
is 'int£hffD<f|bs‘ *'a courtesy to pros
perous people from the North.”
They will appreciate it. No death
tax on inheritance, no State tax on
income! Oli,*joy! Oh, rapture!
Florida says, “Come to Florida.
Here your income is all yours to
spend. We chop or? nothing and
your heirs get ail you leave them
when you die. We won’t tax dead
men.”
A long time ago Elisha “took
hold of his own clothes and rent
them in two pieces,” when he saw
Elijah go up in “a chariot of Are
and horses of fire.”
What are Elisha and Elijah, now
in heaven, saying to each other ns
they see the Right Reverend Harold
Roberts Carson, Bishop of the Epis
copal Diocese of Haiti, calmly rid
ing from one parish to another in
a flying machine ? The navy lends
him the flying machine and he
visits places otherwise inaccessible.
All that men can IMAGINE they
can DO.
Dr. Pearl, professor of biometry
and vital statistics at Johns Hop
kins, says our population will be
197,00(1,000 in the year 2100. That
wiH be out* maximum and then
will come a decline.
With all due respect to the
learned professor, any child could
make as good a gues3.
Dr. William Allen Pusey recent
ly told the American Medical As
sociation that population would
reach 175,000,000. And “with that
density of population, the pressure
of existence will become so strong
that the death rate, particularly
infant mortality, will overtake the
birth rate."
That is another poor guess.
Under intensive cultivation, as it
is now understood, the State of
Texas alone could feed the earth’s
entire population, and that is at
least sixteen hundred millions.
There will be a thousand million
human beings in THIS country,
infinitely happier, richer, better
off in every way, than any popu
lation that ever has lived.
In 124 years, since 1800, our
population has risen from 5,000,000
to 112,000,000. What is the use of
guessing what will happen in the
next 120 years? It would have
been impossible to guess how many
people this country could feed be
fore harvesting machinery was in
vented. Impossible before the ar
rival of the tractor.
Lack of food won’t limit popula
tion. Men’s brains will always
provide for their stomachs. But
a higher race will gradually pro
duce fewer children.
Disease breeding cities will bo
broken up by the flying machine,
taking us to live on mountain
tops, where there is fresh air.
These mountains are not to be
forever uninhabited.
