SOUTH SLOPE.

7 operation can successfully battle.
n A. Cooperation finds hope an,
peace through a readjustment O.
: things as they are
r 5. Cooperation means economy
and economy is the daughter of Pru
denee, sister of Temperance ane
mother of Liberty.
6. What has been accomplished
through cooperation in other fields
can be accomplished in the field OF
agricultural reform.
7. From the dawn of history men
have co-operated to secure the bene-
fits of safety, progress and justice
and have called that cooperative gov
erning.
When the conditions are so neces-
sary to further advance a whole COM
munity and made so evident that it
needs the right sort of cooperation
for its future success, then, accord
ing to Governor Glynn of New York
it must be impressed on the minds
I
of the people that the only way to
cooperate is to cooperate. 1t is a
business proposition pure and simple.
1t can't go tangoing into politics and
few other isms. If it does, destruc-
ton awaits it just around the corner.
A word from the wise Benjamin
Franklin, "Save the pennies"
While to many of the readers of
The Index, the aforementioned lines
on cooperation may not prove as in
teresting reading as the Story of the
Lost Doughnut away down near the
Owyhee desert, yet betting dollars
to doughnuts" honors are about easy
when it comes to showing the pro-
gress of civilization. And If there
is one hope for the success of cooper
alton among the whole Emmett peo-
pie fer e,,gseater Erpmetts9then It lies
in a broadcast determination to win,
because to win leads to success, and
Emmett needs success-it's good for
us. No other spot is so well adapted
to the raising of so wide diversity
of the good things of the land We
could easily supply the multitude, but
it needs good team work in order that
the fruits of the soil may be con-
served and placed on the market with
less expense than has heretofore been
the results of the marketing condi-
tions. They must come in reach OF
the hundreds who want to buy but
who are denied the opportunity OF
doing so by the great expense in con-
sequence of the manner of its disposal.
thus great quantities go to waste. NO
wonder foodstuffs are high. Your
would call it Sinful
waste" and so it is. With the Won
ierful resources of the Emmett coun-
try we should be setting an example
to be cited as Emmett's thrift. In
stead we quote sage sayings of emil
nent men and let the thrift go to
he four winds of the earth.

So second edition of Bill Mis- =
ivens rises to remark on the manner
/ which his slumbers were recently
istlrbed because, as he claims, his
God wife was afraid she'd be too u
lme with rheumatism to attend Y
leeting of the Crescent Club without II
ne help of the arnica bottle. We feel p
orrv for Old Bill, but we venture to p
az ne needs to be ''put wise" First, d

It even a downright case of rheu- e
latism keep her from club meet
