BRAINS AND HANDS.

Everybody has brains and most
everybody has hands, and the two
combined should chase the wolf
from any door.
A few people begin life by work
ing with their hands, and as the op-
portunity presents itself they throw
their their brains into the fray and
make a success in their chosen voca-
ton.
Later we speak of them as self
made men.
Others start life with their hands,
never using anything but their hand
and die as they began.
And we speak of them as failures.
Now why can't everybody in this
town use their brains as we'll as
their hands?
Begin today to concentrate your
thoughts upon performing your la
bors just little better than you did
yesterday, and each day strive to
move upward on the ladder of eff
cheney.
When you do this you will find
your boss behind and pushing you
about as energetically as you are
climbing. Through your efforts and
his you will soon reach the top, and
when the proper opportunity arrives
you will become somebody else's
boss.
You will then be fairly launched
upon your carer, and careful exer-
else of the brain and a liberal use
OF your hands will lead you on to
success in life.
The enterprise. [volume] (Harlem, Mont.) 1899-1926, 1915-09-30

Brains without hands seldom &C
complish much, and hands without
the use of brains will most assured
ly never startle the world.
Brains and hands should work
together and in complete harmony.
Together they will surmount the
obstacles of life's pathway, but sing
ly they will skate through existence
on the fringe of adversely.
Many young boys are growing up
in this town whose future is yet to
be carved out. If taught the proper
use of their brain power while
young they will become self made
men of the future. If allowed to
drift along until they arrive at
mans estate they will find greater
use for the hand than the brain.
They may not become failures, but
at best they will simply be cogs in
the machinery of better men.
Start your boy right and he will
travel the rest of the wav on his
own metle

1t Lies In Proper Use Of the Club and
Nerve Control.
There is no such thing for any man

'eason why most golfers shouldn't de-

u. S. PLANS TO START
SOON ON ALASKAN ROAD

Washington, March 11.-Secretary
Lane OF the interior department sub
mitted TO President Wilson today the
report of the Alaskan engineering
commission on its surveys of various
routes for the government railroad
which is TO be started this spring
to the interior OF Alaska.
Negotiations were under way with
the owners OF the Copper River &
Northwestern and the Alaska North
ern railroads, he said, to determine
whether the government should buy
one OF them for a link in the new
line The Copper River road is con-
trolled by a syndicate in which the
Morgan and Guggenheim interests
are concerned and the Alaska North
ern is owned largely by a group OF
banks, principally Canadian capital.
The principal question to be de-
cided by the president is whether the
government line shall run to the east
or to the west of Prince William
Sound This decision hangs largely.
Secretary Lane said, on whcih part
OF the coal fields is thought best 10
develop at this time.

CANDIDATES GETTING BUSY.
Caucuses and Meetings of Friends
and Supporters.

These be strenuous times with the
busy candidates for city office. Yes
terday and last night witnessed many
caucuses and meetings of various
candidates and their supporters.
Lights were cleaning from various
office rooms last night, and where
the aforesaid lights were shining it
is a safe bet that there was a political
meeting going on, and plans being
formulated to wreck the hopes and
aspirations of the opposition.
There are but a few days between
now and the time the ballots are to
be cast and the thirty-one candidates
for office are not le-ung any grass
grow under their feet. They are all
confident of success, and are only
waiting for their friends to yindicate
their hopes.

preached the single tax for many
years, receiving few plaudits when
the idea was first exploited in this
state. But times have changed. Ad-
vocates Of the single tax have in
creased al a rate which indicates
that the doctrine Of that patriot,
Henry George, has taken lasting root
in this state.
Just as long as We penalize the
builders Of homes or other structures
just so long will we follow the blind
lead Of the other states that refuse
to take the advanced step which will
remedy the social conditions that
confront the man of small means.
Just as soon as Oklahoma decides
that the single tax shall be the law
Of the commonwealth, then labor in
this state will get employment at full
time and at good wages That means
prosperity, and no state can reach the
crest Of prosperity unless its people
are employed at satisfactory wages.
The establishment OF the single tax
in Oklahoma Will start a period OF
home building not equaled in any
like area Of the land. Artisans will
be given work and poverty will cease.
Upon the passage Of the Davis res
olution, The Oklahoman will cheer
fully give space to information per
tanning TO the single tax, so that ey-
cry voter will be able to cast a ballot
intellieently.
The Davis resolution should pass
unanimously Then the people will
have the chance to express their
views Of the benefits which econo-
mists know will accrue from the es-
tablishment of the single taX.-Okla-
