PAVING FOR SMALL TOWNS.

CITY councils in the small towns Of
iowa are beginning to pass their reso-
buttons Of intent to pave. The coming
season IS going to see more of this
much needed improvement IL o.- coun

before. Paving is both possible and
profitable for small towns provided it
Is secured without unnecessary cost.
And there's the rub.
Brick paving, one course of brick up
on concrete base should not cost to
exceed $3.50 in Iowa and 1t will not cost
more than that IL the specifications are

size Of the block do not freeze out COM

AN Sorts of Obiniiou,
A Ministerial Human Document.

While the average minister's salary
outside Of cities does not rise above
$1,000 figure about on a par with
that Of the unskilled laborer, human
documents like one printed by The
Standard baptist, Chicago). need
cause no surprise. 1t comes from a
minister who tells why he is quitting
his profession to enter business. The
editor Of this paper tells US that the
letter was not intended for publica-
ton: and the early part of it shows
that it was addressed to an old friend
Of seminary days. who with the writer
had talked of the future and painted
pictures Of what we were to do for the
Kingdom Of God" Twenty-Five years
have passed and the old friend is given
the reasons that led to this mans de-
cision to desert the active ministry.
Thus:
ITO be perfectly honest with you,
money has had much to do with my
decision. / think you will not charge
me with being mercenary in those days
when you knew me we'll, and am not
conscious Of caring any more for mon
ey now than I did then. 1 have never
desired to be rich: do not now desire
to be. / have not gone into business
with any expectation of making for
tune. but l do want to have something
for the years when I can no longer
work, and for my family, if I should be
taken from them. do want to be able
to meet my bills as they fall due. A
month ago in our ministers meeting an
old minister, shabby almost to ragged
ness, arose and told us that he and his
wife were on the verge of starvation
He had no money. his credit was ex-
hausted. they had no food no coal, and
were about to be put upon the street
because they could not pay the rent
We raised some s32 among us and
gave it to him, and I suppose he will
go to the home for aged ministers; but
it scared me. I saw myself in him.
What reasons have I to expect that I
shall not be where he is twenty years
from now?
"Frugality? Well, I have not been
thriftless. Wife and have tried hard
to lay by little each year. We did get
$500 saved up. and then Edna was talk

and much more, before God took her
home. I,had $1,000 per year from the
church at B. They paid it prompt
ly, and possibly some men would have
been able to save something out of it
each year. We tried our best, and fall
ed. Once the church thought of in
creasing the pastors salary, but Dea-
con Edmunds argued that the minister
should trust God: said that when he
began life he only had an income Of

joys of Christian sacrifice; pointed to

abnegation, and the salary was not in

supposed to be worth not less than
100000. Then I was called to this

The REAL THING NY DAUGHTER.

A Waterloo girl. real or fictitious. has
attained wide notor!ety by a story to
the effect that when she IS visiting in
other towns she demands to be served
with articles made III Waterloo" Even
to chewing gum and other ike neces-
site. her voice is still for Waterloo
manufactures. She eats Waterloo.
drinks Waterloo sleeps Waterloo,
Now my daughter when you go away
from home don't act like that. In the
first place it doesn't get any body any
thing and makes you disagreeable 10
have around. Just imagine how sick
you'd get Of that Waterloo girl if she
We're visiting YOU. Suppose when she
went up TO bed she kicked for a Water
loo mattress. Objected 70 the heating
plant because it wasn't Waterloo and
compared Cameo goods 70 disadvantage
with some unheard Of Waterloo pro-
duct. About the second day would you
send her home or choke her.
Don't you do it. Don't be disagree
ably patriotic. Il isn't called for Stand
for Marshalltown products at home
Order them Use them. Refuse others
But don't make little ninny OF your
SELF by assuming that other people are
not 10 be considered or that other
towns produce nothing worth your ap-
proval. Do you know the chances are
that the Waterloo girl at home doesn't
for strictly Waterloo products: SO
much noise indicates bluff.
Stick up for your town. The best
place on earth to stick up for 1t is at
home. Tell your own grocer YOU want
home stuff to eat. Tell the contractor
that you want home material and home
labor on your job. The finest and most
effective way men, women and chill
aren can stand up for the home town
is to say a good word and spend their
own money for home products with
homo people.
OF course it's spectacular to make a
loud outcry. 1t calls attention 70 YOU.
But the real boost and the real patrio-
tisrn starts in the kitchen. the dining
room and the wardrobe. That's the
actual simon pure thing my daughter
use.

on THE OTHER FELLOW.
TFldora I.ed9er1

We talk about the beauties Of law en-
forcement-that it is the proper thing
to debut on the other fellow. We re-
call an instance in point. A fellow in
neighboring town had been arrested
for intoxication put in Jail, and later
aned for the offense The officer who
was clearly in the right for enforcing
the law was being congratulated for
doing his duty without partially and
was slapped on the back by an admir-
ing friend who said. go to it. old boy
enforce the law without fear or favor
and we will stand by YOU" Scene two
and the rising OF the curtain gives an
entirely new view The enthusiastic
friend OF the officer who is enforcing
the law finds that one Of his own family
is in Jail for intoxication. He hunts up
the official and pleads with him to re-
lease his brother on the theory Of the
disgrace it is sure TO bring on the fam
lily name and asserts that there is
such a thing as being too cranky about
law enforcement. When the official re-
fuses to yield to his demands to release
the relative HI begins popping right
off. 1t seems clear that what is sauce
for the goose is not good for the gan
der-from certain viewpoints. To treat
times. but it is the only rule that can
be or ought to be applied. There are
things that can not be measured on
the yard stick of friendship. and the
enforcement Of law is one of these.

However. there are tricks IN concrete
paving ana when the tricks can be
worked they cost the people money.
For instance asphalt paving II an as
phalt wearing surface two inches thick
on top Of a concrete base. It is con-
trolled by trust and costs nearly 81
per yard. Brick is frequently confined
to one factory's make by 1okers such
as the "rattler" test and peculiar size
of the block and then costs nearly 81
per yard. Bithulithic Is patented
mixed with crushed stone and rolled as
a wearing surface on top Of a concrete
base and because it is controlled by
patentees costs more than 81 per yard
comes to granitold the price is held up
10 s. per Yard by reason OF d patent on
a certain mixture of crushed rock of
varied sizes with cement for a cement
top to a concrete base
But plain. unpatented. durable. and
eminently practicable concrete, paving
can be had at $l.25 per yard which
means a saving OF $500 TO the property
owners in every block. Il has the
same concrete base that all other good
pavements have hut instead of pat
ented composition for a wearing sur
face layer of concrete mixed one part
of cement 10 two parts sand is spread
over the base two inches thick and
brushed rough with a street broom.
Sioux city has received bids as low as

cheap that every town can afford it.

Sweet are the rosy memories of the lips
That first kissed ours. albeit theF
kiss no more:
Sweet is the sight OF sunset sailing
ships.
Altho they leave us on lonely shore;
eweet are familiar songs. tho music
dips
Her hollow shell in thoughts forlorn-
est wells:
And sweet, tho sad the sound Of mid
might bells
When the oped easement with the night
rain drips.
Midnight and love- and youth. and

Love in the land where love most
lovely seens
land OF my love- tho be far from thee.
Lend, for loves sake, the light of thy

The spirit OF thy cypress groves and all
Thy dark-eyed beauty for a little
while
To my desire. Yet once more let
her smile
Fall Ger me; DER me let her long hair
fall,
Sad is It. that We can rot even keep
That hour to sweeten lifes last toll;
but Youth
Erasps all. and leaves US: and when We

We dare not let our tears flow. lest

And follow the long pathway al alone.

THE SAME EVERYWHERE.
Hum boldt Republican,.

A former mayor Of Des Moines is in
jail in little town in South Dakota
awaiting trial for bootlegging The
Marshalltown Times Republican refers
to the fact and cites il as a monument
to the Des Moines wide-open policy
that existed a few years ago. This IS
true Of Des Moines, and it Is likewise
true of every other city in America. At
some time or another a very undesir-
able element will gain control of NUM-
cipal affairs. Thru public Indifference
and the voters inclination to vote for
the best fellow" many towns and cities
have placed at the head Of their NUM-
cipal affairs men who would be a dis
grace to any community. The Ameri-
can people are not vicious, and they do
not knowingly give authority to such
men. But they vote fer the man with
the best address In fact. this 1nclina-
ton Of the voter is the strongest argu-
ment against popular election of OFF,
Gals. Des Moines is not the only city
in Iowa to suffer from such affairs
Humboldt can remember a town coun-
Gilman or two who would not be point
ed to with pride.
