For Our COuntry's Sake

Our country prosperous can pay Ou
war costs, as they come and hav
enough left over to aid our allies.
Our country unprosperous, with bus
mess hating, money boarded, through
fear or false economy, will be hare
pressed to keep food on the table anC
clothing on the back.
Keep bushes going is a patriotic
slogan. Keep money in circulation
Keep wages good Keep on making
money that we may have money tc
spend for war sacrifices.
The worst thing that could happen
to the world these days would be q
business depression in our United
States.
War in itself does not cause depres-
sion.
The billions of dollars of money to
be expended in war preparation will
be put into circulation in our cwn
country, and this in itself will create
new wealth for use in the world-strus
gle for humanity.
The one thing that might halt bust
ness now is an unpatriotic psychology
ical feeling of panic and false idea
of patriotic economy.
Patriotic economy means the elm
nation of waste and extravaganza. 1t
means the conservation of orr food
products, our natural wealth, our
health, our energies, our labor. our
very lives. 1t means putting more
efficiency in everything we do so that
each unit of money, energy and INTEL
icence may accomplish the utmost.
Patriotic Economy
Patriotic economy does not mean
the lowering of Americas standard of
living, which would make us less eff
ficient physically and mentally, nation
ally and individuality, and would kill
the spirit and the will to do the truly
self-sacrifcing things to. be done.
Cities and communities must go on
with their civic improvements. Road
building and public works must pro-
ceed Railroads must renew their
Factories must be kept
COINS to their full capacity. Labor
must be employed. Homes must be
kept up. Merchandise must be pro-
duced, distributed and used.
War duties and war expenditures
must be in addition to peace duties and
peace expenditures. The more we do
he more we can do. The more mchey
We spend the more we will have in our
pockets to spend Money creates mon
".
In a word The natural sane life of
he country must proceed as though

w. M. Patterson of Pea Ridge, was a Brinkley visitor this week. Mr. P. reports that he will make 50 bales of cotton this year and 800 bushels of corn.
 About the biggest sweet pota- to I've seen this year is one raised by Mrs. Lennie Huffman on South Main Street. Mrs. H.. made the garden and grew the jumbo sweet without the aid of man.

CROSS COUNTRY TRIP
Following Jack Frost in the Argus Sunshine
 Special"

Tuesday morning was Jack Frosts first real visit to Monroe county in 1917 and in order to see the effect of his visit and see just how busy Holly Grove and Clarendon were l pulled out of Brinkley in the Sunshine Special" at 9:45 Tuesday morn ing for the lower end of the county.
 Driving into Clarendon at about 10:45, I found the people all coming back from fire in the north end of their city-no damage done.
 Down at the Court House I found that the killing frost had put a crimp in the backward ness" of the county candidates.all of whom were now ready to run" and some of 'em as will be noted from the announcement column of the ARGUS this week, are already running" found at Lynch's Big Store in Clarendon, a bunch of cus- toners and was impressed with the immensity of his place and stock which he is each week talking to the people of Monroe county about in the ARGUS. He had just loaded an immense auto truck with furniture which he was delivering to ARGUS read CTS in the south end of the county.
 Driving out of Clarendon to Holly Grove the roads were so badly cut up that driving was necessarily slow and tedious and 1 wondered just what the condi- tion will be this Fall and Winter when the rainy season opens up.
 At Duncan l found Capt. J. Graves in his usual happy and affable way. He and good lady have as their guest. his neice. Mrs. J. L. Finley of Memphis. A. P. Magness, the other Dun- can merchant, is at present sick at Clarendon. Mrs. Magness had the misfortune to fall from auto recently and break her hip and she, too, is confined to her bed and their store is closed. At Holly Grove l found the same busy town I've been writ ing about every time 1 have been there during the past year or more. Mayor Cowell and Mar shal Walls were telling me about the improvements in Holly Grove, the electric plant. trans fer of water plant to J. D. Cash, etc, The town of Holly Grove pays $35 per month for water and $40 for street lights.
 They've received I.500 bales of cotton already at Holly Grove, so Mayor Cowell reported. The cotton seed market was SIP. % and cotton was 28 to 29 ac.
 Hoping to find better road drove around by the June Davidson farm but couldn't stop as twas late. This farm was all spick and span as if the paint and white wash brush had been working.
 The roads between Holly Grove and Clarendon were the toughest I've found anywhere.
 One of the passengers on the special this trip was little Miss Edith Summit, daughter of Robt. Summit of Allendale, and she proved a good traveller, leav- ing the car at her home on the return trip.

Wheat Growers Meeting.

On Wednesday, October 3, 1t was my privilege to be in attend ance at one of the most interest ing meetings 1 have ever par ticipated in. This was a meet ing called by the men of Brink ley, to discuss the cooperative sowing of wheat. There were about 50 men present and they pledged themselves to devote 300 acres of wheat production next year, sowing it this fall
 No man was asked to devote more than 10 per cent of his crop to wheat. They all came to- gether in a spirit of true coop eration and agreed to SOW the wheat. each according to his ability.
 To the casual observer, this meeting may seem insignificant and of little consequence. For after the great 1918 wheat crop is harvested, what matter will hree or four thausands bushels of wheat make? When viewed in that light the meeting was of no great significance. But there are thousands of other commu- mites coming together at their community centers and pledging like acreage of wheat, and when the aggregate increased acreage of all the communities through out the land is considered, we will see a considerable increase in the wheat production of next year.
 But there is a deeper and more significant meaning still in this meeting It is another express sion of the sentiment that is be- coming, slowly but surely, uni versal. This sentiment is. that members of the human family are mutually dependent one up-
 
 on the other, and that, today, the advocates of Freedom and Democracy are bound together. as never before, by a common interest, to stamp out antocracy and make this world a safe place [ in which we and our prosperity may live.
 As education and civilization advance in the world, and as our society becomes more and more complex, every thinking man must realize that his actions must govern. and be governed by, those of his neighbor. It is this realization that makes men do things now more on a co-opera- tive plan than they were wont to do.
 The men of Brinkley and vi- cinity Ire to be congratulated for this splendid move. There is no limit to the accomplishments of a people who act in a body as one person for the common good. There is no way to estimate the good to be deprived from com- ing together and blending inter- terests, broading sympathies and exchanging ideas.
 Let more of our communities come together for the doing of some good thing that is of con- mon interest, and thus get the spirit of kinship and foster the feeling of brotherhood that should permeate the minds and manifest itself in the the actions of the people of every commit nity.
