STRAIGHT THINKING |

~You can~t chaage human nature.~ How often do we
hear that~ solemn ~pronouncement. it is made to serve as an
repens~ ~for ~opposition to every form of social cange. It is of
igs an explanation for personal wrongdoing and for evils
priced by. grganized society. it assumes that man is driven
by bad as weil as good impulses and that
he cannot change his desires and ways 0;
acting.

~In all such-as:umptions there is lit
ile truth and a great deal of error. When
ne.ies, steals, kills, boasts, shows off or

ude, he may be acting in obedience o
moulses common to man. But such act.
etvare inot~the only. means by which these
impulses may be gratified.

An infant may be curious. As a
iatter of fact, all of them are. Now as
he infant grows into childhood an:
2 er into manhood, he will from time to
~me gratify that instinct or impulse. But:.-e may be a snoop, ~a gossip or a busy-; body, ~He ~may meddle into other peo_ ples\-affairs,.. That is one way to grati*y
the constantly recurring sense of curiosity.
Wher he tacts that way he-is acting in accordance with human
nature. If he is chided for hig conduct he may reply, ~You
can~t change human riature.~? ~But suppese that instead of being
a snoop interested in the private affairs of others, he becémes
intensely sihtekested inscience:.or ~public problems or music or
sport pr tothe tonstructive pursuits: _He would likewise be
acting in accordanc~ with human: nature. -What determines
then which formi.of,, ~natural~~. behavior he should follow? The
answer is habit..,:One~ may. acquire: the habit of realizing his
natural impulses: or Airges in. ~socially~ desirable as well as antisocial ways. His habits depend in part upon his environment,
his~asseeiates,~ the examples - een before him, his. education,

1946.

it appears that practically all top honors were taken by our

TRAGEDIES ON THE TURF

The Apex Gril, 311 Williana Street, got robh=4 just before Christmas to the tune of $4,500 and that~s no hay. The
euh-toters marycued the occuj-anis to the rear of the place and
then cleaned out.

Jimmv Washington} genial owner of Jimmy's Coffee
Shoppe, 362. William Street, had his home robbed at 187 Cedar Sieet. It is said that the barzlars got ts: 9 fur ceats, a
platinum watch of his wife's and his watch, also. Valuation
ran into thousands of dollars. What Christmas presents to receive during the-~Season of Good Will.~

What happened to that great department store that was
supposed to open so elaborately? So far just toothpaste and
Christmas cards have been sold. Anyhow, they're supposed to
have that grand opening on Jan. 10. ~Well, time will tell if
nothing else won't. I really would like to see the place go
over but I'm afraid more effort will have to be put forth to establish the good wi!l of the povulace and show the sincerity of
the backers before the peonle will invest their Hizzd-earned dollars and you can't blame them for that.

what the old saving is ~The show must go on.~

Now here is a real scoop that all you Turfsters must hear
first from me: What popular, and! do mean popular, barmaid.
(barmaid that is) quit ker boy fric-d the day before Christmas
and upon learning that s- me boy friend had bought her a $200

watch eased back into his good: And then after the
chump zave her the watch, zhe Shad right around the day after Christmas and gave it to aonther heartbeat of hers, who, incidentally is not working and thasn~t had a job since he was
discharged from the larmy three years ago, with a Section Eight
(that~s a bad one) Discharge. For him to take the watch to.
the pawn shop and pawn it. All I can say is that the pretty
lady had better start keeping her business straight or she may
find herself having a lot of trouble.

1 was around to some of the nité spots watching some of
the well-known Turfsters bring the New Year in. I must say
that in all of my years, and believe me there are quite a few
of them, | hiave never seen so many drunks or should j have
said inebriated folks in all my life. There was every kind of
drunk that there is. Some had a laughing, others had a cryAnd, of course, there had to be some who just as
soon as they get juiced, thought that Joe Louis is just good.
enough to be \# sparring partner for them. ~The last named
are the ones whom you probably will find on the police blotter
or New Year's Day.

One of the nicest spots in the city is Montgomery~s Hotel
out on Curtiss Street. There is something about the atmosphere of the place that gets you. It~s different from the ordinary run of places, I don~t know whether it~s the friendly greeting you get from the barmaids, or the big smile that Leo (I
mean Leo Hill, the Prop.) gives you, but you just for some
reason or other feel right at home. Some of you Turfsters who
haven't been out that way should pay this place a visit. Once
you go there you are sure to go back... As I said before, there
is just something to the place that gets you. [ know because it
got me. And Iam, believe it or not, a tough customer to
please, All you have to do is to keep is HIGH CLASS.

Speaking about keeping it high class, there were three ladies at the bar of the Moon-Glo the other night whoms! don't
believe know the meaning of high class. You know I can not
give out names but.-there is not anything wrong with putting out
a few initials and some hints. The first ladv who happens to be
the wife of a newspaperman, and whose ~first initial of her first
name is ~~M" had better slow down. Or HUBBY might walk
in on one of her parties. The second is also a rrlatron, and at
present, her husband is out of town, her first initial it ~~J."" The
third, who by the way, was really the fun of the trio. and also
the hichest, is also married. The initial of her first name is ~B.~

Well, enough for now, land as a word of warning { say to
all of you turfsters, straichten uv and fly right or next week
you may start reading ON THE TURF and see something that
may either build you up or tear you down.
