be a higher power than
man. For a universal fear. de.
clares there is a universal
higher power. For there must
be an opposite, just the same
as there is in the power of life.
The opposite TO life is death.
Again we know that bare
nothing. cannot produce any
thing. So we must understand
that there cannot be any thing
produced from absolute nothing,
unless there exists a power that
can mako tangible out of intan.
gible-or nothing remains SO
under such reasoning we must
conclude, that there has been a
productive power which ia eter
nal. For life can only De pro.
duced by life.
Hence, life that produces lie,
is eternal life. Aud whatever
this life may be, it is The Coz.
Now Readers, come and let US
reason together, What is this
God or life: Some say, Nature
is this life, Reason answers
back. No! knowledge teach
US that nature dies. The life
spoken OF above caanot die.
Reason. teach US that nature
lives to day and dies tomorrow.
This life or God that we are
presenting to our Readers is the
power that created the Universe
and all things in the universe.
This power is the spiritual
God that we are presenting as
the God to DE worshipped by all.

what is the cause of death? Is
it the same as life? And if it is,
why do we get out from under
I the power of the sun. For it is
said that a chemical process is
heat and mixture, or is the sun
the producer both of life and
death? And if we acknowledge
this to be Il fact, then we must
say that there is a higher power

assersions nothing but dope,
And inorder even to undertake
to make them agree, will make
you out a very unintelligent

because You say life is the re-

then say that it is not nor will

THE BANK A PROTECTOR OF
MONEY

We are all obliged to carry with us
certain amount of money-the daily ne
cessities of life require cash. How
much you should carry is for you to
say. AS a rule, not more than you will
need from day to day, for the man who
carries great wads of money with him
is not only taking the risks of theft and
loss, but is doing himself, the bank and
the community an injustice; himself in
the risk he assumes and the loss Of in
terest the bank would gladly pay; the
bank in the use Of money to it's profit,
and the community in the loss of the
money as the foundation of credit.
In a bankless community the indi-
vidual must protect his own money.
And to protect it he hides it, often to
his sorrow. If there were no banks we
would gravitate to state of barbarism
where strength was the only safeguard.
But to the Individual who has more
money in hand than the daily needs re-
quire, the bank says: cit it our busi-
ness to protect For this we have
strong vaults, burglar alarms and
watchmen. We spend money to pro-
tect money. We know how-that is
our function as bank"
You will frequently read of losses
running Into large figures because
someone has mistrusted the bank, and
assumed to be his own money protector.
Merchants in bankless towns are fire.
quently robbed-so frequently that
some who have learned their lesson will
no longer trust the frail iron safe that
looks so formidable, but is a mere toy
under the cracksman's s skill, and prefer
to sleep on their money.
If "every man to his trade' is good
motto, then the banker to his trade,
which is, first Of all, to safeguard
money. True, he does not keep all he
receives on deposit in cash-that would
be useless and proftless task-he
keeps only enough to do business with
and loans the rest, which constitutes
the second function of the banker, and
that is to lend, but remember this: that
the place for the money you can't use
today is in the bank, for this is what
banks are for, and you better find it
out. You will sleep better and your
money will grow while you sleep.

EDITORIAL
LEAP YEAR

Does leap year-or rather the tradi-
tlonal feminine privilege that attaches
to it-result in boom or depression
OF the matrimonial market? Conflict
ing evidence is contributed by various
communities, and the conclusions to be
drawn therefrom are perpleXing In
New York the marriage licenses issued
during January were nearly three hun
dred in excess of the number issued for
January, 1915, and the rush has con-
tinued so far in the present month.
Bureau clerks account for the extra de-
mand on the ground that this is leap
year.
In Seattle there has been a notable
falling off in the number of licenses is
sued. In Skaneateles, which looks like
really township in New York, famil-
iarly mentioned by travelling statesmen
as "Skinneyattles, F" there has been a
deplorable decline in matrimony Ac-
cording to the Skaneateles Free Press,
only two marriage licenses were issued
by Town Clerk Dando during the first
five weeks of the year The conditions
in both Seattle and Skaneateles have
been attributed to the fact that it is
leap year.
While no statistics have yet been
compiled as to the number of licenses
garnted in Arizona since the first Of the
year, we doubt if they would show any
appreciable increase or decrease Ger
tainly Arizona women, who enjoy all
the privileges of male citizens except
the very doubtful pleasure Of serving
on juries, have not availed themselves
of the privilege supposed to be con-
ferred by the year 1916. County clerks
have offered to pay for the first license
issued on Feb %, and we know of at
least one paper that has standing offer
of the license fee and years subscrip-
ton to the first couple that will estab-
lish the fact that the gentle one popped
the question. But we have heard as yet
of no response to the latter offer
The leap year privilege is not being
taken advantage Of in Arizona, and the
explanation is patent. Only the un-
sought, the unattractive woman needs
to avail herself of that expedient. And
anybody who knows the women Of Ari-
zona knows that, so far as they are con-
cerned, leap year is an unnecessary in
stitution.
