Progress with Economy.

The people of this county are as
much in favor of economy as those
in any other county The taxpayers
are as FESTIVE under the heavy burdens
they have to carry as any other tax
payers could be. They do not like
waste or extravaganza in public funds.
They are not satisfied with their roads
and schools. They want improvements
TO go on. AS long as their children are
subjected to cramped quarters, insan-
itary conditions, provided with ineffi-
cient teachers, they win demand in
creased school funds. Our people want
and ought TO have schoolhouses that
will furnish community centers
Farmers and business men insist
upon the improvement of all public
highways without unreasonable delay.
and wives and daughters living among
them join in the demand All taXpay-
ers want the best possible county ad-
ministration at the minimum cost
The kernel of the situation does not
have to be sought. We must insist upon
economy, and that not one dollar Of
public money shall be spent without
giving TO the taxpayers a dollars equiv
alent in return. Roads and schools,our
public welfare, are necessary and inev-
liable claims upon US thai must be met.
and so long as the people get dollars
worth for a dollar in taxes, they viii be
satisfied I say this as a taxpayer who
has paid over $4,000 into the city.

THE LIFE OF A MOVING PICTURE
ACTOR.

There is a widespread and growing
impression among young people who
see moving pictures, that there is a
wide and easy opening door to for
tune as motion picture actor.
John Bunny, said to be the most
popular screen comedian in the world,
was few years ago playing a small
part in Way Down East" He
thought he could make good in mo-
tion picture acts, tried it out, and to-
day his face is familiar to every NOV
ing picture fan. The big money he
and Others have been getting looks
easy to good many people. The
death of Mr.. Bunny gave publicity to
his very remarkable career which
may start a good many ambitious
young people along the track he trav-
eled with such marvellous success.
The spectator imagines that most
of the films were taken in comfort
able steam-heated studios, where
there are no greater hardships than
the voice of an active stage manager.
Actually great many of them are
taken in conditions closely approx
mating the tragic and perilous condi-
tions they are intended to portray.
An actor was drowned not long
ago while trying to enact a rescue in
real river. Many of the fire and
railroad scenes must involve good
deal of peril to the players. So many
of the plays are laid in wild life that
taking these pictures is no affair of
the flats around New York. There
must be many rough and arduous
jaunts over rough country.
A moving picture actor needs to be
very versatile person. Not merely
must he be very clever in the almost
forgotten art OF pantomime, but he
should be able to dance, swim, run
an automobile( aviation experience
highly desirable), ride a bucking
broncho, handle firearms, fence and
prize fight, and so on. The work
may not involve the steadily grinding
physical strain of the actor who trav-
els about the country to one-night
stands, yet there must be many ext
gencies where the actors hard bed il
some remote country hotel would
look very good The persons who ar,
envying the seemingly easy success o.
Mr.. Bunny and others need not thinl
it is any so-called snap"

1.-THE SQUIRREL CAGE"

In the year 1918 the state of Penn
sylvania, tired OF seeing her principal
natural resource, anthracite coal,
making its owners rich. while the
state got nothing, imposed tax of
~ per cent on the value of hard
coal at the mines, or 10 cents a ton,
half OF which tax was to be returned
to the county in which the coal was
mined
The state auditor figured that the
statute would bring in between $4,-
10000 and IS. zoo. 900 per annum in
revenue to the state. But so far the
companies have not paid cent. They
simply started litigation in the courts,
charging that the tax is "unconstitu-
tional." In the meantime, however,
they raised the price OF anthracite 25
cents ton extra, to "defray the addi-
tional cost Of meeting the statutes
provisions" and thus have collected
about s1S,000.OO0 more from con-
sumers. while they owe the state ST.
100000 in taxes.
Even II the state eventually gets
that sL0O0,OOO. how is the country
better off? II it costs the consumer
$1s,O00,OOO to let Pennsylvania coll
lect $1,000 900, where will the thing
end?

The Home Circle
Thoughts from the Editorial Pen
Retrospection.

And, assuredly, no thoughtful man
ever came to the end OF his life and
had time and little space of calm
from which to look back upon it, who
did not know and acknowledge that it
was what he had done unselfishly
and for others, and nothing else, that
satisfied him in the retrospect and
made him feel that he had played the
man. From an old college lecture
by Woodrow Wilson.
True, but why retrospection at the
end of life? Life is composed of
days, the doings by day, and a long
life means forgetfulness of the ma
jority of the doings. Why not retro
spection at the end OF every day?
When thoughtful man puts his
head on his pillow at night, there are
two men there-the man as he was
during the lay, and the man as he
ought to have been. The LATHE stud
les the former. What unfair things
done toward others? What good
things done For others? Have the
days doings shown retrogression,
standstill or progress? Upon answer
to these self-imposed questions de-
pends characterize formation OF
character. The end of life means the

The check-raiser leaves your sig

You may think you write your

so, you should see some of the Eek

These Exhibits" show how any

a figure altered and your bank bal

or a thousand dollars.
1t all depends upon the pnervey
of the check raiser and what money
you have in the bank or the excel
lence of your credit. II the check
raiser is after big money, he'll be
willing to take big risks. Then he

There is one method that has

effectually by the protection which,
in writing the actual amount, shreds

indelible ink in such away that any
attempt to alter the amount destroys

method alone-furnishes real pro-
lection for your checks.
1t is the only protection recognized
by those in position to know best the
need of check protection-those who,
without check protection, would risk
large amounts. The United States
government, the American banks, in
surance companies, railroads and
careful men in large and small busi-
ness use the Protectograph.
Remember, the Todd Protecto-

never been beaten. 1t prevents a
loss. With this form of assurance

After reading the letter of the

unable to sell his load Of vegetables
which he brought to the Clarksburg
market last spring, few questions
naturally came to mind.
The variety Of vegetables which a
farmer might have to offer for sale
during the spring months in this Sec
ton Is rather limited. What did this
farmer have for sale? Was 1t some
thing that he had kept through the
wtnter?, Is SO, did he not make a
mistake keeping them until spring
when he should have known that in
these days OF rapid transportation
that he would have to offer them for
sale in competition with the fresher
grown products from the South at a
time when people prefer the early
vegetables? Was his products of the
same quality and packed as attrac-
lively and equal to. the southern
grown? Did he not make mistake
taking his prod ducts to market with
out having first Investigated his OPP
portunity for selling them or having
them sold before he made the long
drive.
