BOOSTING HOME BUSINESS

One Of the most encouraging signs
Of the times, says the Mississippi Val
ley Lumberman, is the attitude assum-
ed by a large majority of the country
press. A few years ago their news and
editorial columns contained articles
furnished from the press bureau of the
mail order houses, all Of them cum
ningly prepared for the purpose of
helping directly or indirectly the Com
mercial pirates" The theme Of most
of these discources was the economic
reason for distributing all necessities
and Injuries direct from the producer
to the consumer.
Through the efforts Of the retail
merchants, individually and collective
ly, the country press has realized the
grievous error they were making and
are now enthusiastically enlisted in
an effort to develop their W com
munity. With few exceptions the

country press now refuse any adver'
tisements from the mail order houses
or those selling direct to the consumer,
and all Of the labored efforts of the
publicity experts which are sent in
for their reading columns is consigned
to the waste basket.
Some Of these papers are using very
forceful and appropriate illustrations
TO emphasize the necessity of everyone
in the community contributing his part
to building up their home town. In a
recent issue of the ~Paynesville Press,
Pa~ynesville, Mimi, there appears a
cartoon illustrating a docA at a sea-
port, One unfortunate individual had
fallen into the water and friends were
throwing a life V to the drowning
man on which is inscribed the words,
Home Trade" Underneath the illus
tration appears the following: "Be a
Life Saver" and the following dis
course:
SAVE THE LIFE OF THE TOWN.
1t will die if you don't boost it.
The best way to boost it is to READ

Take an ACTIVE INTEREST in the
towns affairs.

ALCOHOL AND PNEUMONIA

The United States Public Health
Service brands strong drink as the
most efficient ally of pneumonia. 1t
declares that alcohol is the hand
maiden of the disease which produces
ten per cent of the deaths in the Unit
ed States. This is no exaggeration.
We have known for a long time that
indulgence in alcoholic liquors lowers
the individual vitality, and that the

"CONK'S" OLD FRIEND IN ABER
DEEM

Aberdeen News says that John Ken
drick Bangs, poet, essayist and hui
morist, is spending the weekend in
the city. Mr., Bangs, when interview
ed, lived up to his reputation for
affability and kindly humor inn
mediately.
Upon being asked his opinion on the
questions before congress and the peo-
pie today Mr.. Bangs spoke with con
siderable feeling: "Of the two evils,
| don't know which to characterize as
the greater menace to our country,
Villa and his bloodthirsty crew, or the
kind of resolutions proposed by mush-
headed philosophers like Gore and
McLemore. For the greater safety of
this country, William Jennings Bryan
and his ultra p~aciict followers should
be coralled until the period of danger
passes. But that is my raspy side"
continued Mr.. Bangs, with one of his
rare smiles. Speaking of .humor, it
was never in a more 1ourishing con-
dition."
Instead of the field being monopo-
lized by a few predatory professionals
it is daily practiced by 1899, 999 Of
our 100, 000, 900 people. The disap-
pearance of the professional humorist
does not mean that the gift has de-
parted, but the sentiment is more wise
ly used, not merely humor to create
a laugh, but for the purpose of inter
probation of the manifold phases of
life.
"Then there is the sort of flying
folly, like B. L. T. in the Chicago Trl-
bune, which enables the sane man to
begin the day with a smile, thereby i'm
proving his digestion and tightening
his burdens.
"The crying need Of the western
states when, owing to the chaos in
which war has plunged Europe when
a great many Americans are travelling
in their own land, and the slogan See
America First has been adopted, is a
suitable series of guide books by which
the traveller may know something of
the romantic interests Of the north
west, of the Dakotas, Kansas and the
valley of the Mississippi. In that man.
ner much could be done to stimulate
travel in this section of the country.
The Black Hills wonderfully picture
sque, and replete with legendary lore,
merits at least a weeks stay by the
traveller. Boards Of commerce, who
tell of the largest smokestack their
city possesses, and that they raise
more razorbacked hogs in n minute
than any other paradise Of pork in
creation may attract the settler who
likes to see big smokestacks and popu-
lated pens yet do not provide an allur-
ing substitute for the charms of Italy
or the scenic %splendors Of Switzer-
land"
