UNEMPLOYMENT AND
CHARITY.
IT would.be interesting, if any-
1 body could find out, to know
how many families and individ-
uals in the United States habit-
ually live on charity.
Poorhouses are disappearing.
In most sections of the United
Sattes the town pauper is a
thing of the past. But there
are hundreds of thousands, per-
haps a million, of grown-up peo-
ple who do little or no useful
work, who earn nothing which
can be measured in dollars and
cents, and still manage to sur-
vive.
The nation-wide agitation of
the past few months over the
unemployment situation has re-
vived interest in this subject
and has disclosed some interest-
ing and peculiar conditions. '1 he
total number found to be out. of
jobs, when compared with the
total usually employed, showed
a wide discrepancy. Investiga- j
tors, particularly in the large j
cities, discovered that most of
the unemployed didn’t really
want work. They either want-
ed a particular kind of work,
which was not available at the
time and place, or they wanted
charity.
In several parts of the coun-
try large farmers were trying
to get labor, and were willing
to pay high wages, but the un-
employed of the cities would
not go to the country.
In all probability more real
distress and suffering has been
caused by the wide-spread
drouth than by the industrial
slump which followed the Wall
Street crash. There are more
people on the verge of starva-
tion in the drouth-affected dis-
tricts than were brought to
that condition because of un-
employment.
This is a situation in which
charity is called for, in many
instances. The policy under
which the Federal Government
is planning relief measures will
mingle charity with business-
like methods. Federal funds
will not be given away loosely,
nor will they be lent on insuf-
ficient security, if President
hoover has his way about it.
Each case of suffering will be
judged on its own merits. A
man’s neighbors know what sort
of a man he is. If he is shift-
less, a poor farmer, the type
which never get ahead, it would
be a waste of public funds to
lend him money with which to
get a fresh start. Better let
the Red Cross stake him and
his family to food enough to
tide them over until he can get
another job. That is charity.
But the farmer who owns
his land and will put it up as
security for a loan from the
Federal Farm Loan Board, or
whose neighbors will indorse his
notes to the Federal Interme-
•-diate Credit banks, is on a dif-
ferent footing. He is entitled
to a loan, and will be able to
pay if back in time.

NEWSPAPERS FORECAST
GOVERNOR’S RACE.
pLL( rI ION returns bear out
JL accuracy of newspaper pre-
election poll. Before the first pri-
mary a newspaper in each coun-
ty were asked for their opinion
of the result in their county
and the forecast showed Fergu-
son, Sterling and small in that
order for the run-off. Another
poil was taken last week and it
indicated Sterling's election by
50,000 to 100,000 majority. On
a basis of 3,000 votes, Delta
County was estimated at 1500
for each candidate. There were
8030 votes cast, for Governor
and Mrs. Ferguson received
1577 and Ross Sterling 1453.
ANOTHER McKINNEY
LADY INDORSES
ARGOTANE
“I Feel Like a New Woman
After Suffering a Long Time
With Stomach Trouble and
Indigestion,” She Says.
The merits otf a medicine are spread j
by testimony and this explains the
phenomenal demand and wide-spread j
popularity ol the remarkable medicine j
Argotane. Those who but it once in-
variably buy it over and over again
and tell their friends the splendid re-
sults they have derived from its use.
Mrs. Mary MjcFarling, 502 S. College
St„ who is a well known and prom-
inent citizen here, says:
•‘For a long time I suffered with
stomach trouble and indigestion after
eating. I would havt acute Indiges-
I tion and my breath would be cut off
* and I would nearly smother to death
and would have to call the doctor to
give me something to relieve me. 1
had severe headaches and was baily
constipated and was forced to take
strong laxatives. I was nervous and
restless most all the time and "ou'd
not get any rest at night. I had a se-
vere case of liver and kidney trouble
and I begun to realize that something
must be done for my condition grew
gradually worse all the time.
“So many of my friends had been
taking Argotane and I saw it adver-
tised so much I bought a bottle and
began taking it. The day I started
was a lucky day for me for I have
been improving ever since. I haven't
been bothered with indigestion since,
which means everything to me. The
has all disappeared, my liver and kid-
neys seem to be in good condition, my
bowels are regulated and I don’t have
to take strong laxatives. I sleep fine
every night and my general condition
seems to be better all around. I am
telling all my friends what Argotane
has done for me.”
Genuine Argotane may be bought in
Cooper at the City Drug Store, Inc.

AROUND THE BULLETIN
BOARD.
TffiiERE was an immense, >--oor3
f nalured crowd around the
bulletin board Saturday night;
men, women and children, all
intent on the results of the
election. Some were elated over
the success of their friends or
idols while others were disap-
pointed, but they took their dis-
appointment cheerfully and the
victors were not demonstrative.
All accepted the verdict of bal-
lots and retired at a late hour
resigned to let politics rest un-
til two years hence, when we
will all have a “hot time” again
for a few months.
Crime and outlawry has been
able to run rife in Chicago be-
cause the city officials were be-
ing paid for the privileges can-
celled checks found in safety

show. Crime had continued un-
til Jack Lingle, Tribune re-
porter, was assassinated and
this started a newspaper war
on the crime situation which
brought about the resignation
Of some officials.
Breaks Flying Record
A
It is common to see in the
papers- where some business
leader says prosperity is just
around the corner. It is true
nationally we are rich and pros-
perity ought to abound, but
prosperity will be very limited
when the farmer sells his cot-
ton and wheat below cost of
production. Tariff or no tariff,
the manufacturers cannot sell
their goods and wares to the
agriculturalists unless farm pro-
ducts bring a fair price.

n Back Quit
N Hurting
"I was in ■ very
weak condition
from a (serious
sickness," writes
Mrs. L Leonard,
671 Joseph St.,
New Orleans, La.
“I was so weak,
I wanted to sleep
all the time. I
did not have
strength to do
anything. M y
back ached nearly all the
time. I was just in misery.
"My mother told me I must
arouse myself from the sleep-
iness, and take something to
help get my strength back.
She had taken Cardui and
had been helped, so I decided
to take Cardui, too. After
my first bottle, I could see
that it was helping me. I
took four bottles at this time.
My strength came back and
I gained weight Pretty soon,
I was my old self again.
"My back quit hurting, and
I haven’t had any more trou-
ble Bince I took Cardui.”

When tongue or breath tells of add
