Show In Our Town... Another Election Day has passed pass-ed into History. For the next four years there is but one course for all true Americans to follow. We have a job at hand that will require re-quire all the effort and cooperation of all the people. It is a time for the losers to forget all bitterness and regret, and for the winners to who sets forth on an unknown voyage stipulates that the pilot must agree with him as to tho course, since manifestly that would be absurd; the pilot Is presumed pre-sumed to know; the piloted does not know. None who climbs a mountain bargains that the guide shall keep to this or that direction; direc-tion; it is the business of the guide to lead. And yet, men hire appreciate the trust and confidence confi-dence of those who have elected them to office. Apropos of the unsettled un-settled times and conditions, we offer the following thought which comes from the pen of a very wise man: "We should ascend out of perversity, per-versity, even as we ascend a moun-1 tain that we do not know, with the aid of guides who do know. None guides for tne spiritual jwhii of which they know less than they know of land and sea, and stipulate stipu-late that the guide shall lead them thus and so, according to their own imaginings; and instead of obeying him, they desert and denounce de-nounce him, should he lead them otherwise. I find this of the essence es-sence of perversity." THE CATALYST. |
