Waste PAPER Basket.
'by George Fitch in the Kansas CITY
Journal.l

Wy George Fitch in the Kansas CITY
Journal.)
A waste paper basket is a sarcopha-
gus Tor ideas. Ideas are supposed to
proceed from mind to mind to mind b,,t
about three-quarters of them proceed
from typewriter to wastebasket by the
quickest route.
Inc wastebasket is one of the most
important parts tf the modern office
equipment, and it does a large share of
me work of the Office. 1t is always
ready and always patient. The boss
may only read the first line of a three
page letter, but the waste paper Rbas-
ket VIII take it all and hold it patiently
until relieved at night. The ordinary
waste paper basket begins the morning
on an empty stomach, but by night is
SO full of politicians cards, applica-
tlons Tor positions, gold mine circulars,
pook advertisements, noble offers to
sell priceless preferred stock and mis-
~cellaneous literature that it aches in the
ribs.
since the typewriter, the mimeo-
graph and the printing press have be-
some great, the waste paper basket
has had to be enlarged to many times
Its former capacity. One hundred years
g a two-quart waste paper basket
would have accommodated the president
OF these United States for a week. To-
day a five-gallon basket doesn't last
MN twenty minutes. There ought to
be some way of saving mail carriers by
depositing personal waste paper bas-
kets at each postofice. This would
shorten the transportation of thousands
OF tons of circulars and undesired adj
vice and would make us a happier and
more useful nation,
The waste paper basket produces fuel
for the furnace and old paper for the
mills. But the cost of producing this
material is staggering. 1t takes SIT. Do
IN stamps alone to fill a waste paper
basket. There are hundreds of people
who write exclusively for the waste pa
per baskets of this nation and who de-
vote all their time to it. For every
play which is written for the stage q
hundred are written for the waste pa
per basket, and the basket of a great
and naughty producer will contain ir
one load the labor of fifty men for six
months.
There ought to be some way of boil.
ing waste paper baskets and of reduc,
ing their contents to condensed ant
useful ideas. Full many a rose is borr
to blush unseen and full many an ide;
which might have reduced the cost o.
living or tickled a nation has dived, un
discovered, into some overworked ant
unappreciative waste paper basket. l.

mend a law for the conservation O.

GRANDMA'S BLUFF

Grandmother PendeTby was one of
those sweet-faced, silyery haired old
ladies who seems to have stepped
straight out of the pages of some sew
enteenth century novel. She ruled by
love, but unquestionably, in the old
house at LynbroOk.
Nobody would ever have dreamed
of disobeying or thwarting Grand
mother Pepderby. Even Squire"

harsh words left haTsher feelings in
their wake; and the end of it was
that Will had clapped on his hat and
slammed the door.
"QUarreled? Did you say you and
Will had qUarreled, Mildred?" eX-
claimed her grandmother that even

child's tear-stained face and detected
spirits. How can a girl quarrel with
a man she is engaged to marTy?"

girls may be deceived. We claim the

It isn't like it was when you were
young and women had no power of

The old lady's cheeks had suddenly
grown scarlet. From the day when
l accepted Mr. Penderby," she said,

So the quarrel ended, because that
evening, when Will came back in a

s. l. Reece Retires From CONNER

Clure Becomes Cashier.

S. L. Reece sold his interests il
the Commercial Bank of Jamesport
to w. 7. Mcclure, and on yesterday
resigned the position of cashier anC
retired from the bank Mr.. Mcclure
VINO has been an assistant cashier OF
the institution, was elected to the
caashiership.
S. L. Reece has been actively
identified with the banking interests
in Daviess County for the past eight
years and we regret the severance of
the relationship with our countys busi.
ness and financial circles that will pro
baby lose him as citizen. In August.
eight years ago, Mr.. Reese came to
Jamesport, organized the First Nation
al Bank and was made it's cashier.
From the start the institution com
manded a good business and grew in
popularity, under Mr.. Recess direc-
tion. Patrons always found him oblig-
Ing, courteous and accommodating to
the very limit of safe and sound bank
Ing His progressive public spirited
ness won him warm, fast friends
among the hustling wide awake citi.
zenship of his territory, his manly
bearing and conduct and unimpeach-
able character inspired confidence in
him and high regard for his friend
ship, with the result he has been a
potent factor in the social and bust
ness life of our ncighbor town for prac
tically the whole time he has resided
there.
On May Both, 1911, the First Ma
tional Bank was consolidated with the
Farmers and Merchants Bank the new
organization taking the name of the
Commercial Bank of Jamesport, with
a capital, surplus and total business
that made it one of the biggest and
best banks in the west in the town
the size Of Jamcsport. Mr.. Reece
was made cashier of the institution ans
has served faithfully and acceptably in
that capacity, until he decided a few
days ago to make change and sold
his interests.l
Mr.. Reece has several propositions
In view, some in Missouri and some
IN the west. For the present he in
tends taking a needed rest and with
his wife will leave shortly for a tour
Of the western coast states. His ex-
ceptional business ability, clever per-
sonality and strong character are sure
TO win him preferment in business cir
cles wherever he may go and the De-
mocrat certainly wishes for him and
his good wife abundant success.
Tom Mcclure will make a most
popular successor to Mr.. Reece as
cashier OF Davies countys second
largest bank.-Galiten(Mo) Democrat

A TIME WHEN
MONEY CAN BE SAVED

The time Of year has come when
there are bargains in the stores on
every hand. Merchants simply have tc
turn their stock into cash. If they
didn't they would have no room to
show goods. and they would have to
borrow money at high rates Of interest
Consequently they will sell at low
rates.
This is particularly true in many
Gres this year, on account Of the mild
wintcr. It takes cold weather to sell
wintsT goods. A great many people
get along on their old clothes as long
as the weather is mild.
And there are other reasons for
selling cheap than those named above.
On any kind of goods where styles
change. and that includes about every
thing nowadays, merchant would
rather take a low price today than
carry them to next season and find
that on account of some within in fash
ion they are outlawed
The columns of this newspaper are
q directory of bargains. The merch-
ants who have offerings to make that
you can't afford to ignore are telling
the public through these ADVERTISE
ments about the sacrifices they are
making. Time spent in studying their
offerings will pay for itself a hundred
fold in making your selections.
The habit of reading the newspaper
advertising is so universal that few
people need to be urged to note what
the merchants are saying about their
stocks. Here and there is merch-
ant who has not realized how hope
less a process it is to clean out an
old stock without the help of the news
paper.
Nothing comes nowadays unless you
get out and go after it. The public |
are listening. but ii expects the merch-
ant to take the initiative. A dealer
who does not advertise is looked upon
as not having enterprise enough to
protect the interest of the public, and |
to give them goods at bottom values
