FRIDAY, JUNK 1, 1928 PARENTS REALIZED A RESPONSIBILITY Partita o f pupils in Xenia township school district that took the Eighth *rade examination evidently had more of the interest of the pupils at heart Than those who endeavored to leave the impression that it was not necessary to take the exam­ ination, It would have been unjust to have penalized the pupils fo r some difference, real or imaginary, that the might have existed between school authorities, and the parents being custo­ dians of their own children did the wise thing in having the pupils' take the examrnination,- Parents Jfave certain rights and so have boards o f education but these parents should make it a point to learn whether those directing affairs in that dis­ trict have had their duties laid down from any higher source. The parents should now. demand all the facts for future guidance. i COOLIDGE VETO IS VOTED DOWN The manner in which Congress the past week voted down several of the vetoes of President Coolidge, reminds us of the action of the Ohio State Legislature four years ago when at­ tempting to put Governor Donahey in the hole by passing measures over his veto, the state was thrown into bankruptcy, as more money was ordered spent than the state had income. As the President has said it was impossible to reduce taxes and at the same timb appropriate millions for improvement, with­ out increasing the governmment revenue. The action of the Ohio legislature made Donahey stronger with the people just -as the action o f Congress, will draw public sentiment for the president. The veto of the farm relief hill was as expected and con gress will not likely tackle that measure. In fact as*far as we can estimate sentiment* ninety per cent o f .the farmers in this section approve the President's,action. The Jaw may be con­ stitutional. The Persidenfa legal advisors Say i f is not. At any rate the outstanding farmers, do not seem to endorse the Low- den and Brand idea which comes from Western radical farm politicians. A well known farmer said a few days ago that the more he read and studied the farm relief bill the more he was . convinced that it would not afford relief to the average1Ohio farmer, It was„as much a piece o f quack legislation as the infamous justice o f peace bill that was voted down in Ohio last fall by 477,000., - . THE PURPOSE OF LIFE “What,is the purpose of life?*' „ Volumes have been written oh this subject but we have yet to read one that answers the question. Nobody seems to know just what the purpose of life is: We have ,sat up until the small hours of the morning grappling with this very same conundrum ■ time and time again. That “ we” appliesTo the entire thinking portion o f the human ra ce ..And we have all given it up. leaving na control over our entrance into this life, w e the living Ones o f today, cannofvery well establish the. purpose for Which we. Were born. The man who falls, out of an aeroplane and lands in,the"midst of a democratic convention is not respon- siblq fpr the calling o f the convention, and it is hardly fair to i insist upon his telling what the convention was called for. I f you believe in any Power that created man, you must •look to,thaj Bower for the explanation o f a purpose. That is what all religions do. That, is one o f the beauties of all re­ ligions, They fake, a great burden o f thought from the mind and substitute a.placid .and soothing f aithin- its place* . I f you believe in a religion,, you ought to know. What the . purpose o f life,is.. Each religion explains it clearly, though .not in the same, way- I f you do not believe in a, religion and cannot accept,a faith without logical proof, then you will save yourself many a headache by not bothering about the purpose for. which, without your, will, you were thrown into, this vale o f tears.' Because you will never find out - What you can do, however, is to develop a purpose o f your own, You can look around, you can see all that is good and bad in life. You can mull over the experiences o f countless genera­ tions that came and went before you saw the light of day. You can ransack the-nooks and crannies o f your mind and your heart and your conscience. And you can find out for yourself what is the finest and greatest and most Wonderful and most glorious of all the possibilities of life that is Within your reach •Make that your purpose and, whatever betide, you, wil find yourself treading the path o f wisdom.and happiness. WHAT IS PSYCHOANALYSIS? *•Bads run their course through the mob like the measles or the Spanish influenza, One of the latest is psychoanalysis. Nobody thinks of Writing on any subject these days, in­ cluding politics, finance, fashions, food, eugenics.or basebal without treating jus to the “ psychological” elements o f the ■ 'matter. ■ Young ladies in college and just but will hand you all sorts of psychological discoveries they have made, display their ex­ pertness in the psychic studies they have pursued, overwhem you with psyqoanalytical arguments and bewilder you with their psychic tantrums. Young gentlemen hardly dry behind the ears will tell you you of their theories of psycho-analysis. All of this would not be any more dangerous than the average school-boy’s views on Einstein’s theory, were it not for the fact that there are peculiar elements o f peril in "the business o f digging into one’s soul. In a word, that element is the danger of morbidity. * man s soul functions in forthputting and when it turns abouv and begins to devour itself, it is liable to all manned of strange diseases. ■ ... Thereisone thing a mind needs more than knowledge, and that is health. And the healthy mind, as a rule, is one that is exerted upon work outside of itself. Just as the healthy body is one that is occupied in whole­ some labor and the unhealthy body is one that is occupied in tinkering with its ailments, so the healthy mind is one that is intent upon business or some other externality that shall cal it away from itself, Selfishness is more than a sin: it is a di - sease. And the danger in this present fad is that people shaL get to contemplating themselves, handling themselves, gazing at themselves, and otherwise occupying themselves, until they loose that normal vigor which characterizes the healthy and become probably sickly and certainly a nuisance. The chief peril to the amateur psycho-analysist, afflicted with collegitls, lies in the fact that much is made o f repressed aexual tendencies, And the sex instinct, being the strongest and most potent for good or evil in human beings, it is much better dealt with under the purifying influences o f idealism and in the wholesome activities of normal social life than by the continuous self-study, which'easily leads to morbidity. ' * * 8 healthy high school boys and girls! are better oft playing basket ball than studying psycho-analysis, j If you get what we mean. ' i Hi* ,8y» Pr- I*.
