THE BIG LESSON.

The big lesson taught by work in
civic Organizations, Is that the best
way to help ourselves Is to help 9th
ers. The old Commercial club was
an organization that was organized
for defensive and offensive purposes;
it was to fight battles, but later day
methods are along the lines Of build
ing up the community upon which We
depend and helping the other follow
and thus helping ourselves.
True Commercial club workers are
builders. They realize that a cimmu-
nifty cannot grow by tearing down
other communities. They know that
as others grow, they grow. Helpful
ness is the keynote Of the best com
munity developers.

says that the wheat, fax oats and

deep titled last spring is fully two
inches higher than on the spring

FOOD WIT AND HuMoR

In rather an amusing way some
side lights are thrown on the lues-
ton of food adulteration in the Brit

which we quote the following: -.
"The Sunday Chronicle observes
that There is a lot of unobstructive
kindness in the world il you cult
vate an optimistic trend, and look for
it. In connection with the Milk Bill
that is to be introduced IN the com.
ing session, it is mentioned that at
present a dose of boracic acid or
borax is almost invariably given with
pint Of milk. And if you refer t.
the ,Materia Medica you will find
that borax has many admirable Hual.
tiles. It possesses, for instance, the
property of dissolving metallic oxides
and is much used in the preparation
Of enamel. Now you never know when
you might want to dissolve metal.
lie oxide or to prepare an enamel
Therefore it is very useful to learn
that means are always at hand in
the milk jug.
'Rorax is also a capital thing for
sttffening hats and poisoning cock
reaches. And to any reflective person
the advantage of getting it supplied
gratis in the milk must be obvious.
1t is a great convenience to have in
the house, boon for which we are
indebted to modern science, and
which our simple ancestors, the rude
forefathers Of the hamlet, never en-
joyed.

THIS INDUSTRY OVERLOOKED.

There is seemingly small indus

Some good energetic boy with small
outlay could make good money during
his vacation and after school hours,
gathering up waste paper throug hout
the city, taling it and selling it. For
instance, the various newspaper Of.
fees burn several hundred pounds Of
paper each week. At our postot.!ce,
fifty pounds Of paper, Irvine, ETC.,
are burned each day. The waste
would be given away free of charge,
and If baled could he stored until Il
car load had been gathered, when IT

paper is burned right here in Minot
