Clip the Corners

"Lazness is the Mother OF Inven-
ton. This may not be the way the
matter was originally put by Long
fellow or Shakespear, or whoever
gave rise to the thot, but ii fits in all
right with many modern situations.
Incidence. or desire to avoid exer
ton quite likely leads to invention as
often as necessity Whatever the
motive, time saved or a process i'm
proved is usually (not always) Of
general benefit. Reward of some
sort generally stands ready for the
inventor
Few of us need expect to be as pro-
life as Edison or Henry Ford in the
inventive field but there are thous-
ands of very simple short cuts that
we might take but do not. Perhaps
the most simple OF these is clipping
the leaves OF book, frequently open
ed at the same page The telephone
ufTectOTy ID tHe 1tol lIiustiutioh
Every telephone user should cut the
upper right hand c6-ner of his di-
rectory, clipping all the pages down
to the one where the subscribers for
his exchange are listed. If this is
done, the book may be picked up and
opened at the list of local subscrib-
ers without turning page. This
plan Is applicable to any book which
is always opened at the same point. 1t
may also be used with account books,
by clipping the corners of the add
tlonal pages in use from day to day
This is one of the recommendations
that can be followed without expense
and it will be found to save time just
at the moment when time is most
worth saving.
Get out your telephone book, right
now, and cut the corner off. We
don't want to have to hunt, in the old
way, for the Skowhegan page the
next time we drop in to make use OF
your line.

Comments on Sugar Situation

Scarcity of sugar ceases to be a
joke A pound of sugar today, in
Skowhegan at least Is as much sought
after as the elusive dollar. Its scar
city is tie source of much comment.
both favorable and otherwise, mostly
otherwise Some aver that there Is
sugar enough but the dealers will not
handle it because of small profits. One
man who made that statement fnrth-
ermorc said that the American Realty
Company. who run large number of
camps in the Maine woods, are receiv-
ing this commodity by the car load.
He works for that company and is in
a position to know. Another man
ayerred that only last week four car
loads of Russian sugar arrived in
Norridgewock and wondered II Nor
ridgewock obtained sugar, why it
could not be obtained in other places.
The reporter was unable to learn
whether or not the report of the four
car loads were true.
In Skowhegan sugar Is as scarce as
the proverbial hens teeth. When
some dealer gets a consignment of SUI
RdG inc "OIu IL pdSStu diOhiu anu
presto, it last but a few minutes. Up
in Madison they are demanding sugar
of the dealers. 1t is stated on good
authority that one man. of foreign ex-
traction. entered the cooperative
store in that town and brandishing a
long. wicked looking knife, demanded
that the clerk sell him some sugar.
He was taken to the village cooler
without the sugar. And each day the
situation seems to grow worse rather
than better. Several bulletins have
been issued supporting the theory that
the scarcity would soon be aleyiated
but thus far the man of the house
must drink his coffee sweetless.
