Now the next thing is for all of us to
go blind and become bleeding pharisees.
These ancient characters would close their
eyes as they walked down the streets for
fear they would see something like a wom-
an’s bare leg. The closed eyes caused them
to walk into a post,thus cutting their fore-
heads from which blood would run down
on their face. This was a special marl; of
their hypocritical piety hence the name
“bleeding Pharisees.”
The next thing the Senator should do
now would be to suggest blind bridles for
the jack rabbits of the state. He might
get a bill through on that important mat-
ter at a time when the Nation is in trav-
ail and the times are big with opportuni-
ties for leaders.

He looked at Christie, at hei skin

shimmering, gold eolor"d hair. He’d
always known that she was beau-

She swallowed the last of the

CHAPTER II
MOST IMPORTANT
The Denison Press in common
with most of the other newspapers
of Texas, Is opposed to the ratifi-
cation of te Federal Child Labor
law. It Is not oniy opposed to It
hut is ready to give reasons for
the opposition. In the following
argument against ratification we
fully agree:
“Perhaps the most Important
thing ts that of teaching youth to
work. Habit formation is import-
ant and the habit of learning to
work and organizing It Into their
nervous system at the adolescence
periods of life Is highly Important.
.'Just about the time wo think
"There are some cases of swea-
shop working which need attention
They should be attended by law cov
erlr.g their particular case, but th
average boy is not hurt by work.
It would be better If they wore ail
engaged a great deal of their
time before and after school and
all during the holiday season e.
definite productive work.
“The old Jewish system was
that 'he who teaches his boy n„
trade is much the same as if 1.
taught him to be a thief."
This is not the only reason ol
fered for opposition to the amend-
ment, but it Is sufficient In itself
,o Justify opposition, Texas has
good laws offering protection- to
child workers and regulating theh
mployment. Those laws do not
take from the parent the control of
their children, nor prevent them
from teaching them honest work,
as the Federal law may do. Texas
laws will not permit the exploiting
of children, yet leaves the valtieu
of training in some field of labor.
There are many things the Federal
government can do better than
: nel local government can do It,
hut the control of the child is not
ono of them.—Bonham Favorite.
He sat on the veranda railing,
dangling his feet, while she went
into the cooly shaded house. It was
comfortable here, on the Cooper
place. If you could live in a place
like this, with ice, and electric lights
and plumbing and everything, liv- j
mg in the sticks wouldn’t be so had ;
She came back with two clinking
frosted glasses. "Orange juice. I
found a whole pitcher of il in the
ice box. That was ail the chocolate
cake, but there are lots of these
cookies. . , . Gene, are you going to

"I don’t know. Cues* so. Oh, I
don't care. My Uncle Paul got the
harce to do Mrs. Jennings’ assess
