Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 164, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 July 1917 — Censorship. [ARTICLE]

Censorship.

You’ve sot to have a censor when your angry feeiln’s rise, And a state, of indignation sort o’ takes you by surprise. You’ve got to find a monitor to help you keep in hand The facta and the impressions that so suddenly expand. "When your mind Is overcrowded by a grievance or a grouch. And your wounded egotism wants to rise an' holler, "Ouch!" You’ve got to find a censor who will help you check your pride. An' not turn loose your facts which; maybe, can't be verified. ■Whim the future Is uncertain an’ there's trouble In the air, . An’ the luck seems handin’ out more botheration than your share. You must guard your store of language which grows suddenly Immense, An’ ther ain't no better censor than just plain o.d Common Sense. —Washington Evening Star.
