can be found In any occupation or

and not a few of them hold, or have
held high official positions in the
State. The present roster of the
membership includes a Governor
and a Lieutenant Governor of Tex-
as—rather should say menibers
who hatfe held-these exalted posi-
tions and who were members at
the time they held these high pub-
lic offices. It also Includes Senators.
Representatives and other membet's
of the Fourth Estate who have heki
or now hold, high positions of hon-
or and trust in commercial. cl vic,
religious and professional life. By
the very nature of their calling no
body or association of people with-
in the state can be said tq have a
wider general knowledge of things
of public concern, or a higher aver-
age of practical Information.' Where-
fore it is Indeed an honor to be call-
ed to the' presidency or vice-presi-
dency of the Texas Press Associa-
tion.
Furthermore it is an unwritten
tradition or custom or practlce-r-
whatever you want to call it—that
no member who wou)d deliberately
seek or solicit or campaign for high
office In the Association can be nom-
inated for such high office. Service
to the Association, fidelity to its in-
terests, Is the real test by which
one's fitness and worthiness for the
high Rumors of official position are
detbrmlned, It is the one organiza-
tion of men and women in the State
in which the rigid rule—or tradi-
tion—Is adhsred to that the office
must seek the man; that the test
of fitnesg for the place Is not a ca-
pacity to turn slick political tricks
or a disposition to gather in votes
by deliberate pfans to court popular
favor. This being so it Is indeed a
great honor to be called be official
position by the membership of the
body And that honor Is added to by
the further tenet of the Association
that neither man's money, nor the
■ lie of his town or the publication
which he directs, influences the
membership In the selection of the
officers. Among the living ex-pregi-
dents of the Texas Press Associa-
tion only three or four are from me-
tropolitan dailies or magazines. The
others are from the smaller towns,
some of them repreaentatives of pa-
pers published In mere villages.

THE FUTURE
A few more years and we shall see the heavens dark with

I find it hard to pick my wayiqlong the village street; at every
step a deadly dray or chugging boat 1 meet; and speed fiends,

creep, I feel the need of prayer, qnd “Now. I lay me ddwn to

In a certain Texas town the edi-
tor went away for the week, leav-
ing the president of the local hank
as his substitute, telling him to
write just what he pleased. The
banker wrote an editorial on ioeat
conditions that will apply with
equal fpree to almost any town In
Texas. In the article he said,
among other things:
“During my business career of
forty -j-ears. I have wound up the
i,-.’ i
call to mind, one
/wo of those failures were directly
caused by holding cotton,
tlcally all the others wcri^Kiised
‘by lack of business abllitTw and
win power to say ‘No.’ I • have
often known of a prosperous far-
mer on his farm who would move
to town pretendedly to send his
children to school, and go into
business. He would rent a build-
ing and buy a stock of goods, most
always groceries After Investing
in a stock Of groceries, in edme*
the computing scale man and sellQ
him a pair of scales at about
*1,250—J25 down and notes payable
tn monthly Installments of *10.08
each. “That won’t be hard 40
meet.” be rays, "just *10 per
month." Then comes the McCaskee
bookkeeping man and sells him at
*135 on same terms. Then cornea the
Iron safe man and talks him into
buying an iron safe that lie could
easily do without. Then cornea the
km art ohi man of them all and
Shows him that tf. he doesn’t buy

raised and bankrupt him, when, ty
this time, there is no danger of
bls checks being raised because
they are usually returned by his
bank on account of insufficient
funds. But be buys a protectograph

"By this time his boys have quit
School and are laying around his
Store knocking down a few dollars
Svery day. his wife and daughters
have begun to get a taste of so-
ciety and are giving entertalnmenta

his friends in the country and dead

H«mry Edwand . of the Troup
Banner, in cotifratulatirtg the new
ropean peoples to ehcajic from
conditions they have been lit injr
ler since the war and to seek
■refuge in the one country of the
world where those conditions near-
est approach the pre-war situation.
It shows, moreover, just how wise
the American government was in
heading off the hordes that would
have already been here but for the
3 per cent immiffration law. The
immigrants brought many pitiful
tales; they themselves, for the most
part, were calculated to arouse the
pity of those who saw them, and
. especially that portion of them
which ia doomed to return to their
-native lands because of their quo
tas having been exhausted. Many
of these had sold out their belong-
ings at a sacrifice in order to seek
a new and better chance on this
side of'the world; their return, af
ter making t.he sacrifice for naught.
will be a tragedy. It were a lot
better, even under the prebent rc-
strictions, If those admitted were
those found from actual investiga-
tion bo be the best suited to meet
American conditions and most like
ly to be assimilable into the Amer-
ican polity. Admission on any oth

migrants nor the United States, be-
cause since it hss imposed certain
restrictions, the United -Statei"
