Cooper's Store - Owingrs Mills Frank Zito's Store - Pikesville LOGIE BONNETT, Editor and Manager SATURDAY, APRIL 12, 1924 Begin 35 Mile Limit State Roads Comm. On the York road at the entrance of Prospect Hill Cemetery, Towson, on top of the big hill where traffic is always heavy and the negro settlement of "Sandy Bottom" at the foot—with school children, white and colored coming and going, appears one of the yellow signs of the State Roads Commission inviting automobilists to step on the gas. The sign appears as pictured above, meaning" from this point on you may speed up to the legal limit. The necessity for careful driving from this point north should be so self-evident that no sign is needed, and certainly if one must be placed there it should be of caution. That these indiscreet signs will cause trouble there is no doubt, and the answer to accidents eaused by reckless operating of motor vehicles will be: "I was only driving 35 miles per hour at a place where the State Roads Commission by its signs said I could." There are too many machines on the roads now that are driven by unreliable operators—they do noli need any limit or invitation to speed up; what they do need is a check on their recklessness. The Jeffersonian would be mighty glad to have an explanation from the State Roads Commission as to why these signs have been placed, for they . are absolutely contrary to the State law. THE AMERICAN WAY. This nation is a great, restless, multitude of over one hundred million hurrying, energetic, busy folks—scattered over more than three million square miles and living under vastly different conditions. They will be found on the shores that are swept by the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and the Gulf of Mexico, and likewise on the prairies, lakes, mountains, deserts and forests between. In crowded cities we find them, yes, as many as thousands on a single acre, and upon the farms; each is intent upon his own vocation and all together they represent every variety of occupation known to human kind. Thus we have a picture of a great continent, sprinkled here and there with cities, towns and villages, populated by self governing, self-thinking individuals who are concerned with such a variety of personal affairs that it would be fruitless to begin cataloging them. This may seem like a loose sort of structure, one that might easily fall apart in time of stress and that would hardly be able to exert any strong, united influence. Before- we entered the great war Germany labored under this impression. In a geography used in the German schools was a map of the United States Showing New England in one color labeled "Sphere of English Influence"; the States along the Pacific were in another color and labeled "Sphere of Japanese Influence"; the remainder of the country in a third color, marked "Sphere of German Influence.'' However, the war came and the United States was found to be a unit, capable of thinking and acting as one, and under all circumstances this unity is a wonderful thing. Have you ever given a thought to its secret? Have you ever seen a new swarm of bees hanging to a limb ? It appears to be motionless until you look closely, when it is soon discoveed that the individual bees are all moving about in and out of the mass and over its surface. If they are not hived they will suddenly start off through the air, flying closely together—it appears as though the swarm itself were flying. What actually happens is that each one of the thousands of bees is flying separately, but all are keeping together, moving in the same direction. The people of the United States are more or less like that. Each one is busy and intent with his own affairs, thinking of himself and family, paying little attention to public matters beyond, perhaps glancing over the newspapers and going to the polls on election day. Once in a while some great national question begins to draw these millions into common thought—mentally they swarm— in every community, big and little, they argue, they think, they begin to bestir themselves. The United States has its own way of doing things. It is not the way of other countries—it is the way that pioneer people have created for themselves and it has made the nation today a country whose inhabitants have achieved a common prosperity and happiness that inspires the admiration and envy of the world. How is it that totady, in the welter of confusion, disillusionment and suspicion, it is to America that Europe looks for aid and counsel? Why did the starving millions of misguided Russians get their chance of life from food given by American hands? Because the troubled world still sees one region of sanity and soundness, made so not merely by American resources but by American ideals and methods—in short, by the "American Way." And what is the "American Way"? It can be summed up in two words— voluntary co-operation. This means that a free people has learned how to work together and to work successfully, without surrendering the individual freedom of its members. It means that the Government exists for the citizen, not the citizen for the Government; that an American is free to choose his own work and is protected in the enjoyment of the fruits of his labor.. Our I American civilization, based on the idea of voluntary co-operation through private initiative and enterprise, has advanced steadily and'surely while other civilizations, based on paternalism, dictation and other forms of enforced co-operation, are going backward or have come down in ruins. DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK? That newspapers are in the public service, that they give constructive service at all times, are builders of business as well as cities and make it possible for merchants to sell their goods with the same success to the same people all the while. Yea, the newspaper is the source of great and profitable satisfaction to all who use it. Newspaper ads are busy things. They work all the time, speeding up sales and prestige for the advertisers and it's decidedly worth the while of every good citizen to read the ads. YOU TELL 'EM! LETTER CARRIERS. The campaign inaugurated by the letter—carriers for a "living wage" reminds us of the methods employed by miners' unions to boost the pay of members—they are go different and so are the boosts in pay. This difference, however, arises not from the innate tractibility of postmen, or from the congenital truculence of miners, but from the fact that postmen work for private employees and don't. Hence it's a bit difficult to understand why the miners, or an influential element among them, should favor the nationalization of coal mines. Perhaps they still believe that Uncle Sam is an indulgent employer. You tell 'em, letter carrier; you bear his stamp. (L/aiUKSlK} i (By D. F.) ALBERT J. DAY PURCHASES WHITE HALL LAND.

Held, who recently purchased the old Massenberg property on W. Pennsylvania avenue, Towson, with his family is now occupying same. THE NEWSPAPER PRINT-ING PRESS. Yea, I am the printing press, born of Mother Earth my heart is of steel, my limbs of iron and my ftnggers of brass. I sing the songs of the world, the oratories of history, the symphonies of all time. I am the voice of today, the herald of tomorrow. I weave into the warp of the past the woof of the future. I tell the stories of peace and war alike. I make the human heart beat with passion or tenderness. I stir flie pulse of nations, make brave men do hrave deeds and soldiers die. I inspire the midnight toiler, weary at his loom to lift his head again and gaze with fearlessness into the vast beyond, seeking the consolation of hope eternal. When I speak a myraid people listen to my voice. The Anglo-Saxon, the Celt, the Hun, the Slav, the Hindu—all comprehend me. I am the tireless clarion of the news. I cry your joys and sorrows. I fill the duUard's mind with thoughts uplifting. I am light, knowledge and power. I epitonize the conquests of mind over matter. I am the record of all things mankind has achieved. My offspring comes to you in the candle's glow, amid the dim lamps of poverty, the splendor of riches. I am the laughter and tears of the world and shall never die until all things return to the inevitable dust. RUTS. The world is full o' ruts, my boy, Some shaller and some deep; An' every rut is full of folks as High as they can heap. Each one that's growlin' in th' ditch Is growlin' at his fate. An' wishin' he had got his chance Befor' it was too late. They lay it all on some one else, or Say 'twas just their luck— They never ince consider that 'twas Caused by lack o' pluck. But here's the word o' one that's lived Clean through, from soup to nuts: The Lord don't send no derrick 'roun T' hist folks out o' ruts. ----------o---------- AN EASY PREMIUM. If so be you'd insure your life Against the shafts of earthly strife, An easy premium to pay Is just a bunch of smiles a day. A smile at dawn to greet the sun, A smile at even when tasks are done. And in between, from nine to four Keep doling out the smiling score, And every bit of fearsome care Will vanish into thinnest air, For woe forgetfs her cruel wiles Before the spirit armed with smiles. ----------o---------- AS IT LOOKED TO PERCY. "Do tell me something about the play," she said to the young man. "They said the climax was superb." "Yes, I am inclined to think it as very good," said Percy. "Can't' you describe it to me?" she asked. "Well, the heroine came stealthily on the stage and knelt dagger in hand, behind a clump of ribbons. The hero emerged from a large bunch of flowers, and as soon as she perceived him, she fell upon him, stabbed him and sank half conscious into a very handsome aigrette. This may sound queer, but the woman in front of me wouldn't remove her hat, and that's how it looked to me." ----------o---------- EVERYBODY GETS TAGGED. Man comes into this world with nothing on him, but in a short time everybody has something on him. --------r-o—-------- AN IRISH TRUNK "Buy a trunk, Pat," said the dealer. "And what for should I buy a trunk?" rejoined Pat. "To put your clothes in," was the reply. "And go naked," exclaimed Pat; "not a bit iv it!" ----------o---------- IT WASN'T FOR HER. Bridget, did you hear the door bell? Yis, mum. Then why don't you go to the door? Shure, mum, I don't be expicting anybody to call on me. It must be somebody to see yoursilf. ----------o---------- HIS CLASS. A group of negroes were at the terminal station Sunday morning, telling a few departing brethren good-by. A trainman noticed one negro looking on nonchalantly, and inquired: "John are you going north?" "No, sir," said the negro addressed. "I'se a class B nigger." "What do you mean by class 'B' nigger?" asked the trainman. "Well," said Sam, "I B's here when they leave, and I B's here when dey come back." ----------o---------- THE END OF THE LLMIT. Father—Look here, my dear, I don't mind you sitting up late with that young man of yours, but I do object to him taking my morning papers when he goes. ----------o---------- WHICH ANIMAL GETS IT. Little Alice went out walking with her mama. A very dirty organ grinder was near the curb. He had a long beard and was particularly rough looking; he had a monkey on a string, and Alice's mother gave her a penny to give to the little animal. "Step up to him and give him the penny," said the mother. She hesitated a moment and then turning to her mother, asked very gravely: "Which one shall I give it to, mother? The monkey or his father?" ----------o---------- • QUITE SO! Teacher—Now, Gracie, you may tell the class what it is that elephants have that no other animal has. Gracie—Little elephants. ----------o---------- SINGLE HOLINESS. Tim—How are you getting along at home while your wife's away? Jim— Fine. I've reached the) height of efficiency. I can put on my socks now from either end. ----------o---------- IN THE INTEREST OF ACCURACY. "You have heard what the last witness said," persisted counsel, "and yet your evidence is to the contrary. Am I to infer that you wish to throw doubt on her varacity?" The polite young man waved a deprecating hand. "Not at all," he replied. "I merely wish to make it clear what a liar I am if she's speaking the truth." ----------o---------- HELPFUL CAL. Lord Balfour praises the waiters that he met in Washington at the conference on limitation or armaments and tells the following story: "I was at a hotel where all the waiters are colored men. On the first evening I pushed away the menu, and gave the waiter a eoin. " 'Just bring me a good dinner, Uncle,' I said. He brought me an excellent dinner. I continued this plan for a fortnight. When I left my waiter said to me, 'Goodby, sah, an' good luck, and when yoh or any of yoh frien's come here what can't read the menue, jes ax fob ole Calhoun Clay.' " ANNIVERSARY OF U. S.
