Boys at work

The adults' pat answer to youth
wanting something to do has been
"go to work".
The trouble was, there wasn't
anything for them to do.
There was a lawn to mow, a
service station job part time, and
a few places for boys to carry out
groceries but generally it was pretty
slim pickings when it came to high
school age youngsters looking for
jobs.
A lot of the adults looked at the
number of idle and concluded that
today's youth simply did not want
to work.
This summer has proved them to
be wrong in that conclusion.
A crew of boys are helping the
county employees with road work
and picking up roots at the airport.
Others are working with private
contractors on the highway con-
struction.
There are the usual number of
jobs at service stations, grocery
stores and lawn mowing.
There are some, too, at the motel
as bus boys, waiters and general
laborers.
For every boy there is a job this
summer. And there is a boy in al-
most every job.
It is a good healthy situation
that gives the youth an opportunity
to be producti ve and learn the bene-
fits of honest labor.
It is the first time that it has
happened here but it is worth mak-
ing happen again.

Why not?
Real estate transfers
For years, one of the standard
complaints against our present wel-
fare system of aid to dependent
children is that poverty-stricken
mothers add to their number of
offspring in order to obtain more
welfare money.
Congress has put a restriction,
still highly controversial, on aid
to dependent children funds in an
effort to discourage this practice.
Somebody the other day came up
with a suggestion that is the re-
verse of congressional thinking.
Why not, said the suggestion, pay
COW POKES
poverty-stricken mothers $500 a
year, or some such sum, not to
have another child that year?
After all, the argument ran, we
pay farmers not to plant and not
to produce; we maintain an orderly
oil market which rewards restricted
production; we have plenty of pre-
cedent for the principle.
It would solve the proliferating
poverty population if it worked and
might bring a new stability to mil-
lions of poor families.

(Editor's note: The Sage of Sul-
phur Bottom on his johnson grass
farm obviously listened to the con-
vention last week, and will listen
to the next one.)
Dear editar:
I have noticed in all the news-
papers I found right after the Re-
publican convention, just like I'll
notice in those I find after the
Democratic convention, a sort of
morning-after report on the doings,
a summing up concluding that there
ought to be some other way to
select candidates.
"Did you watch it on television?"
one writer asked. "Why the dele-
gates were stirring around so much,
walking in the aisles, talking with
each other, or dozing in theirchairs
or reading newspapers that nobody
in the auditorium could hear the
speeches. It must be frustrating
to make a speech with nobody listen-
ing."
The trouble with the commenta-
tors is they don't understand these
things.
Sure it's frustrating to make a
speech nobody is listening to, but
it s more frustrating to make a
speech everybody is listening to and
nobody enjoying.
It's true you can hear the speeches
ONE CHANCE IN 124
ro GET TAX CHECKED
There is one chance out
of 124 your place of busi-
ness will be field audited
if you file a 1040 income
tax form.
The commissioner of in-
ternal revenue reported on
the frequency of checks to
the treasury secretary on
the 1967 activities of his
department.
better on television than the dele-
gates can on the floor of the con-
vention, but judging by most of the
speeches I heard on my TV out here
that's one of the main advantages
of being a delegate.
You can get just as frustrated
at a speech you can hear as one
you can t.
The way it looks to me, the dele-
gates after years of experience at
such things, have perfected a system
of making a convention tolerable
to themselves, but the television
audience, it still remains helpless.
I know that the television people
try to remedy this by sending their
reporters around the hall during
dull speeches carrying a small tele-
vision station on their back with
an antenna sprouting out of the top
of their head to interview this or that
state leader, each of whom seems
delighted to be on television, but
they don't say much.
This is understandable. Very few
people have much to say anyway,
but this doesn't keep them from
saying it, on camera or off.
As I was saying to my wife yes-
terday, you told me that the day
before.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.
