THE EASIER WAY
 IS THE COOPERATIVE WAY

There is no royal road to busi- ness suceess-but some ways are easier than others.
 Cooperative advertising be- tween merchants and manufac- turers in the newspapers that directly reach the buying public is the modern Easier Way"
 When the manufacturer of a nationally distributed article puts his plea for business in the newspapers of this town he is making customers for your store as well as for himself, MT. Deal CT.
 The more business he can send to the store the better off he is
 Conversely, every time the merchant treats a prospective customer pleasantly, shows the advertised. article, and explains it's merits, he is helping the man. ufacturer as well as himself
 It's a fair game of push and pull.
 When manufa cturer and mer- chant work together through the columns of the local newspapers they are moving to success along the Easier Way"
 If any manufacturer who is interested in operative dealer work will address the Bureau of Advertising, American News paper Publishers Association, World Building, New York, it will be glad to answer questions.

which is to make of us one great army In the market place one cannot tell the difference between Methodist and a Baptist Roman Catholic or a Pres byterian.

It is interesting to find people from every land on the earth, coming from cOun- tries where all kinds of colors form the national emblem, no sooner landed here than they glory in "Old Glory" The governmental idea that is express ed in the flag is going to keep us to- gether in religion also.
 The Methodist and the Roman Cath olic churches, said Bishop Hamilton, are the two largest in this country. third of the population of the United States is now Methodist. The members of two such large organiza- ton simply must be brothers. We rep resent one, flag, one Lord. one faith. one baptism, and we must be one body in Christ and stand together in the fundamental issues.

| Long time ago the mole was big
animal who lived on top Of the ground
and walked and talked with all the
other animals; and the story Of how
he came to change his shape and go
to live underground is what the old
men used to tell to the little children
as they walked across the young corn
fields late on the sunny afternoons and
saw where the mole had been at work
throwing the earth up in ridges which
the little boys liked to trample upon.
WELL" the old men would say, ut
was long time ago, and the story is
about your great-great-great-great-
grandfather and your great-great-great-
great-grandmothe when they were
fine young people. When he was fine
young fighting man, strong enough to
run from this settlement to the one
across the mountains in one day and
sit up all night in the council when he
got there.
"And she was such young woman
as the old men used to like to see
down at the spring, laughing and
working at the deerskin. She was
laughing all the time, under her black
fhair and out of her big brown eyes.
"And even when your great-great-
neutrality-suspicious. came to see
her and sang his song she only laughed
and ran away to her mother. No, she
would not be married to any young
man--so she said.
Long time, this strong and brave
young man tried to win the hand of
your great great great great grand
mother, but she would not listen to
him, and he made himself sick think
ing about her. And it was then that
the mole passed by his camp and felt
sorry for him. So the mole said:
4 know why you are sick and why
you are weeping, and will help you.
I can make it SO that the young woman
will like you and come to you of her
own free will. Just wait here for me-
And then the mole went away.
Late that night, when your great
great great great grandmother was
sound asleep, the mole burrowed his
way under the ground and came up
inside the house where she was asleep.
And when he saw that she was sleep
The Athena press. [volume] (Athena, Umatilla County, Or.) 18??-1942, 1914-07-17

ing very soundly, he took out her heart
and went out the same way he came
in.
And then the mole went straight to
the house Of the young man and put
the heart Of your great-great-great-
great-grandmothe into his hands. It
was 80 light that the young man could
not even feel 1t In his hands! Then
the mole said:
"'You must swallow the heart, and
then the young woman will be drawn
to you
so the young man swallowed the
heart Of the young woman, and when
she woke she had a very strange feel
ing.
az must go to that young man. she
said, and she no longer wanted to
laugh when she thought about him.
And then the feeling got SO strong that
she had to go, and when the young
man saw her coming, he knew that
she was to be his wife, and the mole's
way was good.
Nov, all the medicine people Of the
tribe wanted to know what 1t was that
made the young woman change her
mind When they found out it was
the mole, they were angry with him,
and wanted to kill him. You see, the
mole had never been fellow for talk
ing, and everybody thought that he
was just stupid, soft-hearted fellow
of no account.
"Of course, the mole did not want
to be killed by the jealous medicine
people, and SO he hid himself under
the ground-and ever since he has
stayed there. And ever since he has
been getting smaller, his nose has been
getting sharper and he no longer has
much use for eyes. Maybe because his
eyes are no good. he eats the hearts
Of the grains Of corn we plant in
spring.
But the mole earned his few grains
Of corn, don't you think so?" And the
little boys would step off the ridge
above the mois's burrow and nod their
heads.

long ago the children were satisfied
to propel hoop along the sidewalk
by beating it with stick at regular
intervals. This performance required
more or less constant attention and
the needless expenditure OF great
deal of energy. This waste of physical
strength is now conserved by the in
vention of small boy, which enables
him to keep the hoop in motion with a
small amount OF labor and attention.
This invention consists of stick,
somewhat longer than that usually
made use of for beating the hoop and
Is not necessarily as thick. but near
the end there is a smaller stick at
right angles with the first The latter
is held In contact with the hoop at a
point below the hoop and not far from
the ground. and as the child walks
along after the hoop the latter Is pro
pelled at n regular speed without much
further thought by the child operator.

began to tear their eyes out as soon as
we set ours on them, what a life it
would be, and when should we have
any quiet? Abuse me and will abuse
you; but let us be friends when we
meet. Have not we all entered a
dozen rooms, and been sure, from the
countenances of the amiable persons
present that they had been discussing
our little peculiarities. perhaps as we
were on the stairs? Was our visit,
therefore, the less agreeable? Did we
quarrel and say hard words to one an
others faces? Move wait till some
of our dear friends take their leave.
and then comes our turn. My back is
at my neighbor's service: as soon as
that is turned let him make what
faces he thinks proper; but when we
meet we grin and shake hands like
well-bred folk. TO whom clean linen is
not more necessary than clean,
sweet looking countenance and a
nicely gotup smile for company.
