CRACKER PHILOSOPHY By R. M. J. (THE TIMES may, or may not, agree with the views expressed in this column; and the writer alone is responsible for what is said.) “PULL FOR WILLACOOCHEE OR PULL OUT.” Every merchant in Willacoochee should be in on the Times’ Trade .jit Hoim Campaign. / ' * * m r* It pays to say you’re feeing fine whether you are or not. It saves answering a lot of questions. ** * * A friend savs whenever he mar ries he wants a wife ugly enough that other men won’t pay her any attention when she tries to flirt with them. ** * * Florida has many natural ad vantages, and attractions. For in stance, while down t’n ire recently, we met a girl who doesn’t use rouge or lipstick. ** * * Jazzaway jinx of the Valdosta Times says when a boy finds the girl of his dreams he’ll lose sleep oyer her. Yes, he’ll wake up to learn it was all a dream and be come restless. *• * • President Hoover believes that business conditions will make a change for the better within the next 69 days. Some of the people say if times change at all they’ll have to be better, as they coulc hardly be worse than they art right now. It has been suggested that thi: column is not original—that wt Bwipe our ideas from newspaper: and magazines. And neither i this particular accusation original. Others have said the same thing. »* * * The Literary Digest i 3 conduct ing a straw vote for the purpost of seeing how the country stand on the prohibition question. If yin receive a ballot, send in an honest opinion and let’s f ind out what the the people really think about the “dry” laws as they are today. *« * • ‘‘A fine new auto is a handsom e thing, but the best looking vehicle in the world is a baby carriage, with a pretty baby in it and a pretty mother pushing it,” says Editor Benjamin of the Dunnellon, Fla., Bun. We are personally ac quainted with “Uncle Ben/' and he’s just the sort of fellow to say things like that. But H T. Rawls, commenting in the Nahunta En terprise, says: “Brother Benjamin is right, and the most disgusting thing in the world is a silly, nimble brained, painted, half dressed flapper getting fallen arches hang ing around a soda fount in a small town, to oggle the boys as they come in. We need less of that kind and more of the kind de scribed by Editor Benjamin,” Mr. Rawls, apparently, is about five or ten years behind the times. He should remember that many of “Uncle Ben’s” pretty mothersused to hang around the soda founts and “oggle” the fellows who are now the hard-working fathers of their pretty babies. ia ||nu IKumn Ifnm to Irratljr? PONCE had the misfortune to know a pessimist. There was some excuse for his pessimism. He was r ~<utow chested chap threatened with tuberculosis. He had given himself up for lost. Oq.e night somebody induced him to go to a singing school. A year later his chest was filled out; there was a sparkle in his his laugh could be heard a city block away. He had learned how to breathe. Even when you pratice deep breathing exercises you probably d« not fill your entire lung capacity. You expand your chest; but the really important part of your breathing is done with your diaphragm—a big flat muscle that forms the floor of your chest. And the abdominal muscles are the boys you need to train if-'you are to get the most out of your diaphragm. Fill your lungs until you feel your stomach muscles hard against your belt. That means that your diaphragm has straightened down and is massaging the top of your stomach and intestines— helping along with the process of elimination. When you breathe out, do it forcibly, with the stomach muscles: like a horse snorting —but without the snort. Your stomach and intestines will be forced up against the 'iaphragm again and given another massage. Breathing in is important, but breathing out is much more important. Read sometime a book by a man like Thoreau, onjohn Burroughs, or Stewart Edward White—one of the grea^pen air writers. * Then, while the impression of its rich, bounding optimism is still strong upon you, pick up a book written by one of the Russian novelists, or by one of our modern longhaired writers who believe that realism necessarily means murder and drunkenness and prostitution. What a difference! And what makes the difference? The realist will tell you that it is because he deeply, while the optimistic writer thinks As a matter of fact, the difference is not in the of the two men, but in their livers. It is not the depth of their thinking so much as the depths of their lungs. The corpuscles of the one are red and fed with oxygen; the corpuscles of the other are pale and fed with cigarette smoke and ,germs. what, after all, is Life?” asks an old Sanskrit quota tion. ® And answers: “Life is the interval between one breath and another— he who only half breathes only half lives.” Politics are warming in Geor gia. Senator Rivers down at Lake land has announced his candidacy for governor. Every tiling else be* ing equal, we’d favor Rivers on the grounds that he is a South Georgian, but we can’t afford to be so “patriot.c” whenever such an important pclL as the governor ship of the state is concerned. We want the best man, no matter where he’s from, and we’re wait ing to see who he’s going to be. ** * ' William Allen White, K-maa editor and a member of President Hoover’s commission appointed to study conditions in Haiti, i iss d the hand ot an aged Negress upon arrival on the i land. When the item appeared in :he papers, the Chicago Tribune commenting edi torially, said: “We sat up after 12 lasi night waiting to see whether South Carolina and* Mississippi would go out of the uniou or march an army against Kansas.” As the Atlanta Georgian says, ‘.‘l hat's pretty cheap and silly stuff, and it looks as it Ul2 Chicago Tribune might have outgrow n it.” It is our private opinion pubicly expressed that Southern folk don’t give e darn how many Negro hands o: other convenient spots Mr. White kisses That’s his business; not ours.
