A THOUGHT
Tha rich rulath ovar tha poor, and the borrower la
aervant to the lender.—Prov. 22:7.
No remedy against this consumption of the purse;
borrowing only lingers and lingers It out, but the di
sease Is Incurable. —Shakespeare.
STORAGE By Hal Cochran
WHEN you've got a garage and you own a ma
chine and you've also got ysungstcrs around.
It Isn't so easy to keep the place clean, for
the kidk also use It, I've found.
The handy garage that will hold Just one car I*
handy for other things, too. You never are sure
where your tools and things are. Now, haven't you
found that that's true?
I cleaned out the place where my bus stands at
night, and it took me a full half a day. And then, to
the kids, the garage seemed Just right as a wonderful
spot for their play.
The day after cleaning I drove to the door. When
'twas opened I got a surprise. A whole flock of
playthings, spread 'round on the floor, was the wel
come that greeted my eyes.
Yea. I cleaned the garage until blue In the face.
I'll agree that the cleaning was hard. And then little
youngsters took charge of the place, so my auto
stands out In the yard.
GREATEST SPORT OF ALL.
WHY are people visited with so many troubles
In life? Why Is }t difficult to reach success'
Why does nature curse us with disease, sor
row, handicaps, obstacle, disappointments?
There's a reason, and a very plain one. Mtlny rea- j
sons. In fact.
First of all: Life la a spiritual gymnasium. It is
only by encountering difficult and disagreeable tasks
and altuatl ins that we can develop Intellect, charac
ter, wisdom. We are like athletes training and exer
cising to develop strength.
One aometlmfs wondera why "fine characters'' have
had so many troubles, obstacles and disappointments.
In many cases their "fine characters" and kindly
ways and tolerance have been developed by the or
deals they have gone through.
Enjoyment of life Is largely a matter of contrasts.
A steady diet of candy and rich foods becomes sick
ening. To enjoy taaty things one must have eaten
long of the coarser and leas attractive foods, for con.
tract.
Nine-tenths of the Joy of eucceaa Is In having
fought hard for It Bucceaa la sweetest when It I*
the reward of privation and effort, far sweeter than
Inherited wealth.
The view from the mountain top Is grandest when
the climbing has been difficult.
If one did not have Borrow and trouble for con
trast. the could not appreciate Joy and pleasure. A
movie thrills ua If we aee only a few shows e week.
To theater employes, who have the movie pictures
before them many hours every day, the shows are
monotonous. All la contrast.
Many pay the full price for everythin* In the lon*
run. Whatever he enjoys, he must atru**le for.
Without thk struggle, the enjoyment la faint. Ye*,
and nature rewards ua for effort, 'laybe we do not
attain the success we strive for, but we have the
pleasure of anticipation, the thrill of the conteat, the
satisfaction of having done our best.
Quit* naturally, the man who looks on life In gen
eral and his Job In particular ns a game Is the man
who sets the most pleasure out of life,
flood health is not appreciated unless we have
undergone miserable Illness, for contrast. So with
all else. W'hy be discouraged by troubles, handicap*
or obstacles? They are merely part of the game.

WALTER JOHNSON, THE STAR
PITCHER.
WALTER JOHNBON, the bright particular star
of the Washington baseball firmament, has
bought an interest In the Oakland, Califor
nia, club and will retire from Major League baseball.
Johnson seemed as much a permanent part of Wash
ington as docs the Marine Band, or the Washing
ton Monument itself. Johnson a* a pitcher rank*
as does Ty Cobb In batting and base running. John
son will retire from his high perch as king of pitchers
and take up thcliumdrum work of managing his own
club, figuring on gate receipts and much like.
Walter Johnson quits at the pinnacle, knowing that
he cannot long remain a top-notcher. He has won a
great name In a sport that la the better for hla hav
ing been Identified with It, and he carries with him
the good wishes of all the sane In fandom for hla
future success.
WHY PAINT THE LILY ?
A CHANGE has come over the spirit of gay
l’aree'a dream. Rouge powder and lip _ stick
manufacturers are astounded at the possibili
ties of the new "no camouflage" rage which hae been
followed by the abandonment of cosmetic* of all
kinds by thousands of French women. Fashion has
changed these, and now natural complexions have be.
come the style. While a year ago heavy rouging,
eye-brow-plucklng, and other artificial beauty build
ers were absolutely essential for smart women, today,
according to reports, every chic function la crowded
with women who have foresworn painting the lily,
some even going to the extent of allowing their eye
brows to grow again.
THE TWENTIETH AMENDMENT.
THE proposed Child Labor Amendment wax
overwhelmingly defeated In Massachusetts In
the recent election. This Iniquitous proposal
la born of selfishness and emotlqfial desires on the
part of some seeking personal benefits and others
who have been led Into Its support from an appeal to
(ympathy. The Herald was one of the first news
papers to oppose the amendment. Its belief was that
the prime movers In the measure were prompted by
selfish motives and the great amount of propaganda
exploited throughout the nation in favor of the
amendment was purely a commercial proposition and
not for the Intercat of the child. This position has
been borne out from developments alnce the agita
tion has been going on pro and con and the light of
tha real truth of Its purpose brought out. The
Manufacturers Record In commenting on the results
of tha Maasachuaetta election says: '
"Massachusetts, long noted for Its child labor laws,
gave overwhelming proof of the fact that It Is op
posed to the proposed Child Labor Amendment. Tho
Slate Legislature had referred this question to *
popular vote or an advisory referendum. The total
vote of the state was 94.1.340, and of this number 696,-
119 ballots were against the amendment, with only
247,221 for acceptance. The votp against this amend
ment was therefore nearly three to one. Every
Senatorial and RepresentatfVe district nnd every city
and town lit the atate voted against tho amendment,
Opposition to tho amendment had been voiced by
women'* organlxatlona, by civic clubs, by farm
leaders, by leaders educators, such ns Homer Albus,
dean of the Roston University Law School; Frederick
R. Cabot, Judge of the Juvenile Court; Rev. William
Devlin, president ’of Roston College; A. Lawrence
Lowell, president of Harvard University, and many
others.
"This is a hard blow to the advocates of the Twen
tieth Amedmugiit. It shows by an overwhelming
vote that this Iniquitous measure has few friends In
Msssschusetts. The proponents of this amendment
had counted heavily upon carrying Massachusetts,
but they have gone dow-n Into Inglorious defont, 'un
honored and unsung.'
•'With Massachusetts thus leading by s popular
vote against the amendment, there la hope for the
country. Now let every other slate follow this good
example and make forever Impossible the adoption of
such a bolshevistic effort to control the life of this
country."
TO ABOLISH RAIL LABOR BOARD.
THU provision In the Howell-Barkley bill to
abolish the rail labor will. If passed by
congress prove a step backward In the nffnlr*
of commerce and Industries. While the present bill
no doubt has some weak points which should bo
strengthened, It has been a saving barrier fn this
nation in preventing the labor unions from absolute
ly stagnating business In railroad circles.
The Chamber of Commerce of the United States
has passed strong resolutions calling on congress to
maintain and strengthen the present law, and In
crease Its powers If possible. Since the creation of
the board, It has been saving the life of Industrial
enterprises. The running rough shod over the rail
roads and dictating In a great measure the rates to
be charged for passengers and freight and fixing of
the Income of the railroads by the unions have been
curbed by this board and a fair and equitable settle
ment of grievances reached.
The purpose of this board Is to function equitably
to both the railroads and to the employees, if the
powers of this board are destroyed by an act of con
gress. It will be better for the country to abolish It
absolutely. No organization can succeed without
sufficient authority vested In It to control and direct
the affairs and operations of the project. The rail
roads of the country are the greatest feeders and de
velopers of the present day snd time for all sections
of the nation. To restrict and fleece from them their
' earning powers, Is to destroy and stagnate all com
mercial Industries.
The Chamber of Commerce of the United States t*
a non-political organization: Its sole purpose being
for the upbuilding of the nation. It has no social
j Interest* to serve nor is It Interested In* the petty
whims of those who seek to control and nullify the
i operations of the Industrial Interests of the x:ountry.
| Our Industries are dependent upon the railroads In a
\ marked degree for their prosperity and every Igltl
j mate should be shown to them.
Hryan aays the Democrats will win next time, but
th'y are not letting even this discourage them.

The International Uniform
Bunday School Lesson for Nov.
23: Luke 9:28-36.
By WM. E. GILROY, D. D.
(Editor of The Congregationaliat.)
i
And It came to pass, about an
eight days after these sayings, he
took Peter and John and James,
and went up into a mountain to
pray.
And as he prayed, the fashion of
his countenance was altered, and
his ralnmcrit was white and glist
ering.
And, behold, there talked with
him two men, which were Moaes
and Ellas:
Who appeared in glory, and spake
of his decease which he should ac
complish at Jerusalem.
But Peter and they that were with
him were heavy with sleep; and
when they were awake, they saw
his glory, nnd the two men that
stood with him.
And It came to pass, as they de
parted from him. Peter said unto
Jesus, Master, it is good for us to
be here; and let us make three
laharnacles; one for three, and one
for Moses, and one for Ellas: not
knowing what he said.
While he thus spake, there came
a cloud, and overshadowed them;
and they feared as they entered In
to tho cloud.
And there came a voice out of
the cloud, saying, This Is my be
loved Son: hoar him.
And when the voice was past,
Jesus was found alone. And they
kept It close, and told no man In
those days any of those things
which they Sad seen.
This remarkable atory beara upon
the surface its great suggestions
and teachings.
It reminds us of the profound
need of visions that lift us above
the day’s tasks and the humdrum
and commonplace round of life and
give us faith and strength to go on.
Few men attain to great service
without some enriching, uplifting
experience in life. Even the Master
must bo transfigured before us to
give us conviction In the hour of
temptation, trial and doubt.
Teter had already acknowledged
Ills Lord. When he made the great
confession lie had meant It with nil
his heart, hut even after this expe
rience on the Mount or Transfigura
tion *he denied his Lord.
But In that very moment of de
nial he must have recalled the glory
on Ihe Mount. That Is the quality
and purpose of these unusual ex
periences—to prepare us for the
hours when there Is no vision, to
supply for us the reserves of filth.
Why did not all the dlslciples
have this experience? Why was It
for only Deter. .Inmes and John?
We cannot know. Possibly the vi
sion came only to those who had
the power to see. Vossibly the safe
ty and strength of the others de
pended upon th» example of fidelity
and sureness In these three, who
seemed to be the nstural leaders
among the twelve.
What happened on the Mount?
Was the Transfiguration a waking
experience, or something seen In a
trance? Wo do nnl know atid whqt

does It matter? The disciples saw
their Lord In glorified vision, and
they came down from the Mount
with a new sense of nearness to
their Lord because of this intijnate
experience that they had shared
with Him, and with an lndellbile
impression of His divine mission
and His divine approval.
Id this vision the three disciples
saw Jesus conversing with MoSes
and Elijah. What was the signifi
cance of this? It must have been
to remove from their mtnds all
doubts and fears. Moses and Elijah
represented the law and the proph
ets. the historic religion of Israel.
Would It be unnatural that In the
minds of these who had left all
and followed Jesus that at times
there might arise some doubt or
questioning?
Were they right, after all, in
leaving home and friends? Was not
l he old religion, the religion of those
round about them, all was neces
sary? Mightn't this new prophet
be no prophet after all? i
Here was the answer. Jesus was
the true successor of Moses and
Elijah. And then came also that
voice of authority. "This is my be
loved Son; hear Him.”
And then, how sudden was the
transition! The vole* was past, and
they were alone with Jesus.
They came down from the Mount
with silence In their hearts. The
account in Matthew says that Jesus
told them to keep silent concerning
their experience until after the Res
surrectlon. The account in the les
son does not say, this, but in any
case It was a deep, treasured expe
rience.
Note, also .that Us purpose was
not only to strengthen the general
faith of the disciples, but to pre
pare them specifically for the trying
days of Christ's passion and crufl
flxlon.
These, Indeed, could not have
been clearly foreseen or understood
by the disciples at the time. But
with what clearness when the try
ing hour came, or at least when
light was emerging out of darkness,
would they recall the scene and the
words spoken concerning the de
cease of Jesus!
What strengthening of faith, and
consciousness of fellowship, would
that memory bring'-
The Mount of Transfiguration ha?
its place, but it is not the normal
place. The disciples came down
from the unusual experience to take
up regular tasks. Life’s transfigura
tion experiences are tested by the
inspiration they Impart for daily
life nnd service.

Before You Invest, Investigate
(By J. Olay Murphey, Macon Realtor)
The building In which our new of
fices are located has a value of ap
proximately four times the amount It
aould for In 1906, Just eighteen years'
ago. What is true of Macon Is true
of most of the other cities In Georgia.
There has been a safe, steady, sub
stantial increase in the value of prop
erty In these cities.
And yet a great many of our peo
ple seem inclined to think that the
purchase of property in other sections
will give them greater returns and as
a consequence, many of them are
losing their money.
The Isolated South
(From the New York Herald-Tribune)
"The Charleston News and Cou
rier" has been commenting despon
dently on the south's political Iso
lation. That isolation stands out
in the 1924 election, just as it stood
out in the election of 1920. In both
those years the old south lived up to
tho tradition of passivity and som
nolence. It was untouched by the
political ferment which was stirring
the rest of the Union.
It Is safe to say that the southern
states would have cared little or
nothing for the League of Nations
if a democratic president had not
championed It. They voted for a
label four years ago. They did the
same this year, since It Is equally
clear that economically and politi
cally they were just as little inter
ested as the rest of the country in
condoning socialism and La Fol
letteism or in Inviting the turmoil
Incident to deadlocking the Electoral
College and htrowing the choice of
president and vice-president into
congress.
The old south, excepting Ten
nessee, is now a one-party section.
Tennessee voted for Harding in
1920. It has never failed to elect
at least two republican representa
tives In congress. East Tennesse
is as stanchly republican as Penn
sylvania. North Carolina used to
elect republican representatives
and republican or third-party sen
ators. But that day Is past. Vir
ginia, North Carolina. South Caro
lina, Georgia. Florida, Alabama.
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and
Arkansas, thanks to voting restriq
tlons and the white primary, are
necessity for sending in funds, but
this is not the case in view of the
fact that we have a deficit. For that
reason, we are compelled to con
tinue the collection of funds In or
der to cover this deficit. If we
had at our disposal the large sums
of money the Republicans have, we
would not have to call on our
friends for further contributions. No
good Democrat wants to see this
deficit met other than through the
assistance of the rank and file of
the party. If you, or any of your
friends, can help in this matter, you
will be doing much for your party.
With kind regards. I am.
Very truly yours.

FABLES ON HEALTH
MRS. MANN’S “DONT’S”
‘Do's" are generally more effec
tive than “don't" so Mrs. Mann of
Anytown had learned In bringing
up her family of youngsters.
Of course she was, like most peo
ple. inclined to shout "don’t” at one
of the children, as often as not. Blit
on the whole she had found that if
they were properly instructed In
what to do. the chances were that
sooner or lator they would not have
to he corrected so frequently.
But there are a few little health
don't that parents should enforce
with considerable rigidity. Among
them are these:
Don't breathe through the mouth.
Enlarged tonsils and respiratory
troubles will result.
Don't overeat.
Don’t sit all bent up and stooped
In your chair.
Don't neglect to brush your teeth,
keep the mouth well washed out
and to bathe frequently.
Don't take dirty candy or gum
from other youngsters. Be sani
tary.
Don't lie around the house. Get
out in the air and play. Get tired
and sleep soundly.

tranquilly democratic, unconcerned
with national issues and willing to
vote for a democratic presidential
candidate whatever he may stand
for and whatever he may be.
The south's main concern In na
tional affairs is to defend its local
interests in congress and to domi
nate democratic national conven
tions. On questions involving
Americanism, like immigration, it
Is more at odds with the urban
northern democracy than It is with
republicanism. On the issue of
radicalism and socialism it Is more
at odds with the western democ
racy than It Is with the repub
licans. It still tries, however, as
It did before the Civil War, to use
the northern and western democ
racy to safeguard Its domestic pol
icies, the effective weapons In its
hands being the two-tnirds rule in
conventions and a nearly solid dem
ocratic representation in congress.
If the south is Isolated it is be
cause it prefers isolation. This ab
normal situation will continue until
the southern people begin to look
at national questions as national
questions and to exercise the right
to differ among themselves as
Americans instead of always com
bining as sectionallrts. Then the
barriers to freedom of political
thought and action will melt away.
The south will cease to be a "neg
ligible factor" in our political prog
ress as soon as It makes up its
mind to discard parochialism and
to keep step with the rest of the
country In solving the present gen
eratlon’s political nroblcms.
come to believe it. but Signor Ni
colo Z>%ola, operatic tenor, who has
sued the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany for $250,000 damages, lays it
on somewhat thicker than usual. In
his bill of complaint he insltss that
he was "held down” at a period
when “he enjoyed the same fame
and reputation as Enrico Carupo,
and it was a mooted question who
was the greater singer.” Zerola is
entitled to his opinion, of course,
but if his case goes before a jury
he will probably get scornful smiles
rather than plaudits or cash. It
will be difficult to convince the av
erage jurop that any other singer
was ever as great as "Caruso.” —

WHY ISN’T IT?
German cotton buyers have in
vaded Texas and are closing deals
for supplies. The general exports
from this country In October had a
total value of $527,000,000. This
was an increase so $100,000,000, and
of this increase, $25,000,000 was for
cotton shipments alone. The Cen
sus Bureau is reporting a marked
increase in cotton activity in our
country. With this activity at home
and with tremendous shipments of
cotton going to England and Ger
many. why isn't cotton worth 30
cents? That is something the farm

The auto is no longer a luxury or
