The fact that the Democratic
National convention is to be held
in St. Louis and that Mlssouri's
Governor is now the most promi-
nent candidate for the Vice. Pres.
idential nomination, gives the St.
Louis Republic, as the leading
party organ in the State, a fine
opportunity for party service.
Democrats all over the State are
hoping the paper will make good
use of the opportunity and meas
ure up to the responsibility.
Likewise the weekly press has a
party opportunity and response
bility in these matters. The
Democratic convention h a s
spoken and Democrats and every
agency they support and control
should be and, we believe, will be
loyal to it's wishes and commands
Missouri Democracy has nc

Democrats should not give
credence to the Republican re
port that certain Democratic
leaders have formed a com bine to
to name any portion of the ticket.
Republican papers and politicians
have recently been busy with a
story of that sort. There's not a
word of truth in it. No Demo.
cratic leader or com bination of
leaders would accept the respon.
sibility of naming the ticket or
any portion of it, even if the priv.

That's all dust thrown in the air.

regard all such stuff, unless he is

WILLOW RIVER BOY HAS

A distressing accident occurred
here Wednesday afternoon when
Vincent, the 8 year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Pulsi, had a
leg cut off by the local freight

catching a ride on the cars while
some switching was being done

the leg was amputated between

regarding other suits at other
prices in other places.
In other words the family that
has been running along with
only one day or one week be-
tween them and trouble suddenly
begins studying the prices of
commodities, begins comparing
the places for securing them,
begins seeking information con-
corning those places, begins
reading and studying to see what
the sellers of those commodities
have to say.
And the result is that when
the pay envelope starts once
more they have probably learned
more about economics than they
ever knew in their lives before.
Getting out of a job is not a
bad thing. In most cases it's a
mighty good thing and has
started many a man on his way

THE VALUE OF BEING OUT
OF A JOB

The greater part of the Ameri-
can people live with only about
one days rations and reserve.
And most of us continue to work
that way until something hap
pens to disturb the adjustment
Of our lives.
The average icebox has just
enough food to last until tomor-
row, the average pocketbook just
enough money to the next pay
day.
Now, it is a we'll known fact
that the best way to upset the
serenity of a mans mind is to
upset his breadbasket. When
the stomach is empty the mind
thinks. Consequently, the quick
est way to make a man think is
to stop his pay envelope.
The man out of a job, a family
without a pay envelope becomes
more active mentally than ever
before in their lives. The woman
of the house who has always
bought her groceries in the same
place suddenly becomes active in
the food market. She begins tC
look around, to try to find out
what other concerns are asking
for prime roast or mutton chops
The daughter who has always
eft things to a certain dress

Probably the greatest need of a
frontier section like this is set
tiers of the right sort. A good
many come and some go. Those
who remain are men and women
who are willing to stand hard
ships and privations incident to a
new country. Those who go are
either of the restless kind or
have opportunity to rent or other
employment that looks more con-
genial. To rough it" here in
Pine County seems more sense
able, if by so doing a home can
be secured, than paying eXhorbi-
tant rents in older parts of the
country or working for wages
for other people who are making
all the profits.
The ease with which a home
may be secured should not be
overstated. Newcomers some
times get erroneous views as to
the possibilities of the soil and
climate. Land companies are
apt to over state the good quail
ties of their offers, but men with
energy and determination, have
succeeded and will succeed here.
We believe forty acres is
enough to start on. Stock shoulC
be kept only as feed can be raiseC
