N'O  IIVDIVIOL-AL, ONLV Hl'MAMTV IS COMPCTENT
One day, as I passed down the .street. I came to a spot where a teamster had unhitch¬ ed his hor.ses from the wagon, and was giving them their midday oats beneath th" shad" of a benevolent and comfortable oak. Prom off one of the animals. I noticed the collar had been t^ken. and ob.served that hi.s n"ck was .-ore
¦Prettv hard, i.snt it." I in¬ quired of the man. "to make a horse pull with ,i sore shoulder aga;n.st the collar "
"¦Vep." he anpwered. "plum tough". And then he handed me a bit of iihllosophy which I have put away among my ino,st prized posse.ssioiis. There wouldn't be much work done in this world, mister, if only horses and folks thai are plum fit had to do It."
There you are! That Is a large, brilliant truth The busi- ness of this earth is carried on by the incompetent and unfit. It is the mothers that dont know how to bring up children thai arc bringing up xnxmt. ot , them; It'.s the people not at all qualified to marry who are marrying: its the teachers that can I teach that are teach. Ing. and the preachers that can't preach that are preach¬ ing; most governors, mayors. and presidents do not know- how to manage s-atc!. citle.s, and nations; doctors who don't know are giving us pills, and cooks who are incompetent are preparing us fcKKl; and alto- g«»ther the world is in the hard   of the unfit
Yet. .«omehow. Natuie man¬ ages t cet things done She galn.s her ends. Perfectly bal- ai-rlng n'l our imperfections, ¦h' arrives ut perfection. Liet us take heart. Ineompetence i.s no excu.se for despulr No indu dual Is competent': only Hummlty is competent
