COMMUNITY

WHAT is prosperity 1t is
nothing more than sentiment,
perhaps in many cases, but it
is the sentiment of the MAORI
ty. The nation is the sum of
the communities. A communi-
ty is the sum of it's families.
Community life is the basis of
ethics, of patriotism, of good
business policy. If your COM
munity life is right, if it is
prosperous and a majority of
other communities are pros.
porous, then prosperity reigns
in the nation.
The community life is the
sum total energy and activity
of it's individual members. And
there exists in a community
obligations between these
members. The community
owes the merchant a duty, and
the merchant in turn owes his
community a duty. This is
not a one-sided proposition.
Against the consumers obliga-
ton to deal with the merchant
of his community that merchant
or business man must place his
obligation of service, good
goods and right prices.
The retailer of today must
assume his proper friendship
to the community if he is to
prosper. He must become one of
the moving spirits of his COM
munity. He must be a pro-
gressive merchant; he must
use the latest and best methods
in conducting his business. If
he does these things there is
little doubt but the other mem
bers of the community will
fulfill the obligation that rests
on them to transact their bust
ness with home merchants.

Y

Mr.. BRYAN at the head of
the cabinet and in charge of
our relations with other nations
gives assurance that the policy
of the present administration
will be one that tends toward
peace. So
He has always been opposed
to armed conflict as a means of
settling disputes between ma
tons and he has high ideals of
international justice. We do
not expect to see him consent
ing to the reputation of treaty
obligations in the interests Of
dollar diplomacy nor hear him
counseling war in any but the
most extreme circumstances.
Note his sentiments in a
speech in London six years
ago: The Christian nations
must lead the movement for
the promotion of peace not on
ly because they are enlisted
under the banner of the Prince
of Peace, but also because they
have attained such a degree of
intelligence that they can no
longer take pride in a purely
physical victory. The belief
that moral questions can be
settled by the shedding of
human blood is q relic Of bar
barism; to doubt the dynamic
power Of righteousness is in
fidelity to truth itself, That
nation which is unwilling to
trust its cause to the universal
conscience, or which shrinks
from the presentation of its
claims before a tribunal where
reasOn holds sway, betrays a
lack of faith in the soundness
of its position"
And again:
The world S peace would be
greatly promoted by an agree
ment among the leading ma
tons that no declaration of war
should be made until the sub
mission of the question in con
troversy to an impartial court
for investigation, each nation
r~eserving the right to accept or
reject the decision. Theprelim-
mary investigation would in
almost every instance insure
an amicable settlement, and
the reserved rights would be
sufficient protection against
any possible Injustice
