Morality.

The subject of morality is en-
crossing the attention of educat.
ors and public men generally al
the present time 1t is general
topic at all kinds on gatherings,
1t is being asked why there is less
morality nav than with our
sturdy ancestors.
Many solutions of this problem
have been advanced, and we also
have a remedy for the evil. We
believe that the parents are re-
sponslble primarily for the pre-
vailing immortality.
We believe that the strict. old
fashioned way of bringing up
children produced stronger and
more moral type than our pre-
sent easy going system, or lack
of system.
We believe that discipline at
home correlated with proper dis
cipIine and management a school
will bring better results.
Ne believe that morality can
be taught by example as well as
by example, We know tharmor.
ality is far more essential to the
welfare of the individual and of
the state than of the arts or
sciences.
Without morality public and
private, ourinstitutions and gov
ernment will tail. 1t is lesson
OF the past that no nation can
survive when immortality saps its
foundations.
Let us take warning from the
fate OF the ancient states. Let
parents do their duty.

Water-Works.

works system to supply the town
with water for domestic use.
The Village of Oakley should
own water works and electric
plants for the benefit of the peo-
pie OF the town.
We believe that in addition to
improved services and greater
extention that not only can a
municipal water works system
be made self supporting, bur will
bring good revenue in, possible
enough to meet all our administ-
rative expenses. Under munich
pal system we can have the pro.

treasury and used to carry on

nearly enough to pay all govern

ADVERTISING METHODS ADOPTED
BY AN ENTERPRIsING HOUSE

That Oakley is fast becoming
metropolitan in the methods of
advertising used by our mer-
chants to call the buying public's
attention to the many splendid
values which they are Offering.
also that the wide awake frm,
the Oakley Coop are keeping up
with and just a little ahead of
the times in an advertising re-
spect is again practically demon
strated by what is perhaps tile
most elaborate system ofadvert-
ising ever attempted by any bus.
mess house in this section, name
ly: the giving away of the beau
titul Parlor Grand Piano which
IS now on exhibition at their
store, and many other valuable
presents including a sewing ma
chine.
This piano retails at $4,000
each, guaranteed for ten years
The principal points of superiori-
ty of this celebrated piano over
any other of this class of instru-
ments lie in the three strings in
unison with Overstrung bass, the
splendidly pitched scale and true
sounding board which give this
piano that rich. deep, even tone
SO much admired.
In recent interview with MIR.
H, c, Haight regarding this de
cided innovation in advertising,
Mr.. Haight stated: I'VE have
been enjoying the patronage and
confidence of the buyers of this
community for some time now
and by always trying to keep
our stocks complete the saying
that You can get it at the Coop
has become household express
ion. In giving awav this piano
we are actuated by a double pur-
pose, to show our appreciation
OF the patronage of our friends
during the past, also to encour
age new trade and to bring the
many splendid values we are
now showing in all lines to the
attention OF every buyer in this
territory. the plan we are using
in giving away this piano is
equitable and fair to all, simply
this, every person buying one
dollars worth of goods in our
store will receive a coupon good
for 100 votes. The person re-
turning to us on November 26th
the largest number of votes will
be gwen the piano absolutely free
of all cost. No favors will be
shown. Our reputation for
square dealing assures our Gus
toners of that fact"
This four hundred dollar Par
lor Grand Piano is surely a pres
ent worth having and we predict
a very merry race for votes dur
ing the next few months.
The Oakley Coop is surely to be
congratulated upon their broad
minded methods and Trade
Getter" advertising system.
