HELP YOURSELF BY HELPING
OTHERS.

The following "a an editorial from
the pen Of william Allen White appear
ing in the "Emporia Daily Gazette" Of
October 20, 1910:
The yalue Of a man should be meas
ured not by what he does for himself,
but what he does for others. and the
value Of an Organization should not
be measured BY what IT does for its
members, but by what It does for the
community in which it exists.
The punishment for horse stealing is
endorsed and has no terror for the
honest man. This must also be true
Of an organization which is banded to-
gether in an effort to be Of value to
its community; possibly that is the
reason that a vote Of thanks was ex-
tended TO the state and national or
ganizer. Mr.. A. jacobson, showing
their appreciation Of his genius and
untiring gentlemanly efforts in form
ing this most satisfactory organization.
Organization brings men together
they lear nto know each other, learn
that honest and fair competition means
an honest right-ofway and for the
good Of the community in which they
dwell. We regard the bringing to-
gether Of the merchants and bankers
as one Of the greatest and most ad-
vantageous organizations q the cost
Of living can be reduced BIZ eliminat
ing the dead-beats, grafters, poor and
Fno-pay' fellows, every honest con
sumer will hail It with delight and
give their helping hand to that end
It will elevate their credit, work no
hardship on the honest or unfortunate
man, but It will strengthen his credit
and win help TO tide him over any un-
fortunate period. When you hear a
man growing over such an organiza-
ton, you can put him where he be-
longs"
The new motto must be, Serve the
Public" then IT win give you its ap-
plause and support.

And thus our rider, Jack Keith, who
knew every foot of the plains lying
between the Republican and the Can
adam rivers, was one of these thus
suddenly requisitioned, merely be-
cause he CHANGED to be discovered un-
employed by the harassed commander
OF cantonment just without the en-
virous of Carson City. Twenty min
utes later he was riding swiftly into
the northwest, bearing important
news to General Sheridan. commander
OF the Department, who happened at
that moment to be at Fort Cairnes.
To Keith this had been merely anoth-
err page in career of adventure: for
him to take his life in his hands had
long ago become an old story. He
had quietly performed the special
duty allotted him. watched a squad
ron of troopers trot forth down the
valley of the Republican, received the
hasty thanks of the peppery little gen.
eral, and then. having nothing better
to do, traded his horse in at the gov
eminent corral for fresh mount and
started back again for Carson City
For the greater portion of two nights
and day he had been in the saddle
but he was accustomed to this, for he
had driven more than one bunch of
longhorns up the Texas trail; and as
he had slept three hours at Cairnes,
and as his nerves were like steel, the
thought Of danger gave him slight
concern. He was thoroughly tired,
and it rested him to get out of the
saddle. while the freshness of the
morning air was tonic, the very
breath of which made him forgetful
of fatigue.
After all, this was indeed the very
sort of experience which appealed to
him, and always had-this life of
peril in the open, under the stars and
the Sky. He had constantly expert.
enced it for so long now, eight years,
as to make it seem merely natural.
While he ploughed steadily forward
through the shifting sand of the cou.
lee, his thought drifted idly back over
those years, and sometimes he smiled,
and occasionally froWned, as various
incidents returned to memory. 1t had
been rough life. yet one not unusual.
