You feel they haven't been using you right?

Don't get bitter; get mad, and fight !

Don't get glum with wounded virtue, Nurse a grouch and it will hurt you.

Don't get bitter ! Don't be a quitter ! GET MAD!

-Arthur Guiterman. ***

"Get mad," he says. There's a thought there. A very wise man I know remarked the other day that the American nation has apparently lost its capacity for resentment.

He said ttrat if we would just get mad every time some enormous wrong is done us or threatened us, these wrong things would get mighty scarce. He thinks that in the horse-and-buggy days of this country no man or men or devil dared deliberately threaten us with disaster grim and great. I believe he's right.

Today such threats have become a national pastime. Warring elements fight each other THROUGH THE PUBLIC. Like the recent coal mine strike, the threatened railroad strike, and others. And instead of rising up in our wrath and kicking the enternal hades out of the makers of threats, we just fume, and fuss, and gripe. Maybe my friend is right, and what this counfty needs is to get back its capacity for resentment. And start resenting injuries.

And ttren, of course, there was the armless soldier who went into a restaurant to eat lunch with a Scotchman. When lunch was over the soldier had to pick up the check with his teeth. ***

If all the unnecessary people on our Federal payrolls were laid end to end-wouldn't it be a swell idea?

The greater the man, the lonelier; for where can he find one to share with him the solitudes of genius? ***

The steadiest job in American industry during 1946, was picketing. fhe next steadiest job was that of ttre officers of the law who had to try and restrain the peacefulness of the pickets.

Elliott Roosevelt, recently returned from Russia where in his talks he stuck out his neck so far it reached the North Pole, announces that he has not yet decided who he. will support politically. That gives the top politicians something to scramble for, each of them realizing that Elliott's opposition would probably cinch his election.

Don't let the evidence of much ready cash in the hands of John Public, fool you. Most of what the "little people" are spending now is their cashed-in war bonds. Soon they will be gone, and then a world of this apparent "demand" will evaporate. We saw a lot of that happen during the recent Christmas ""*ot.

Mentioned the late Jimmy Walker last issue. Probably the most quoted remark of the dapper ex-Mayor of New York was made at a banquet. He had the place of honorthe final speech on the program. But it so happened that a magnificent speaker immediately preceded him. So Jimmy said: "I wish I had been first, instead of last on this program. But even great men can't always be first. Take George Washington. He was first in war, first in peace' and first in the hearts of his countrymen-but he married a widow."
