DO THEY REALLY?
Thoughts On Thinking
The half back takes the ball for
center, his blockers race ahead as
interference, howing down the
opposing players; there is a mud
dled pile-up and then he is in the
clear— alone— with three big
tacklers between him and the
goal line. He is on his own.
For a number of years—refer
red to in a' song as “School Days”
—thinking was simply a process
of following our teachers who ran
interference for us and showed us
the way. Then one day we got
past the line of scrimmage into
maturity and discovered that we
were on our own. After some ex
perience it became clear to us
that this unaccustomed job of
thinking for ourselves involved
a number of difficulties which
might be compared to those tack
lers mentioned above.
Truth is the goal of the intellect
—but the tacklers must be avoid
ed if we are to reach it. Before we
even begin to oppose them, we
must remember to hold on to the
ball—to master the idea and carry
it to its farthest conclusion. Then
if we are thrown, we still keep
the ball and can put it into play
again. We must also avoid dis
couragement. We don’t mind ef
fort and we dislike quitters.
“Knowledge maketh a bloody en
trance” is true, but a trained mind
is worth the price.
Now for those tacklers. The
first is sloth. Do we still allow
others, e.g., some of those using
the printed word in newspapers, j
periodicals, and books and some
of those using the spoken word i
over the radio to do our thinking
for us? There is a certain amount |
of cowardice in a man too indif-;
ferent to use the mind which God
has given him. Are we afraid to'
defear our own lazy tendencies,
or are we afraid to arrive at the
truth? Some people fear truth be
cause it places new obligations
upon them, obligations which, if
fulfilled, may turn away friends
and even relatives.
The second tackier is the false
philosophy of the day. This is a
really dangerous foe, for it is sur- j
rounded by an appeal of mistaken
originality. Do we accept the j
statement of a man, made famous
by his mechanical exploits, on
some question of religion? He
probably knows less about it than
we do, but sometimes we clothe
the men in the headlines with j
power they do not possess and!
follow them blindly.
The last tackier is the catch1
phrase—dressed in the garb of
common sense. We hear frequent- j
ly, for example, the remark, “It’s I
all right in theory, but it won’t !
work in practice,” and it has the j
ring of truth. But the reason that
it won’t work in practice is that
it is not right in theory.
You have to get to that goal—\
alone. It can be done. Just re
member, hold on to the ball, keep
pushing ahead and avoid the
tacklers.

THE OLD JUDGE SAYS...
“Looks like a pretty expensive cigar you’ve
got there, Judge.”
“Yesiree, it’s a real good one, Bill. Won
it from Chris down at the cigar store yes
terday. He got pretty positive in a dis
cussion we had and I had to take him up
on it. Bet me three good cigars to my one
that the three states that still fyave pro
hibition have less crime than the other
states. Well, all I had to do was step across
the street to my office where I had some
recent F. B. I. figures in my desk drawer.
Why, on the average, those three states
have a worse crime record than the whole
rest of the country. And there’s a good
sound reason lor it, Bill. There’s no such
thing as a dry community. It’s only a ques
tion of whether liquor is .sold legally or j7
legally. And when it’s sold illegally it means
bootleggers, gangsters and more crime.”
