The trouble ain't with statutes or with systerns - not at ail; It's with hurnans jus' like we air an' their petty ways an' sniall. We couid stop our writin' law-books an' our, negulatin' rules If a better sort of manhood was the product of our schoois. For the things that we air needin' isn't wnîtin' fnom a. pen Or bigger guns to shoot with, but a bigger type of men. I reckon ail these problems air jest orneny like the weeds, They grow in soil that oughta nourish only decent, deeds , An' they waste oun time an' fret us 'when if we were thinkin' stnaight An' living right, they wouldn't be so terrible and great. A good horse needs no snaffle an' a good rnan, I opin- Doesn't need a law to check him or to force hirn into line. "If we ever start in teaching to our children year by yean, How to Iive with one another, there'll be iess o' trouble here. If we'd teach 'em how 'to neighbor an' to walk in honor's ways, We could settie every probiern w R I T T E N which the mind o' man can raise.
