BEATING THE GAME

Systematic campaigns are being
made the country over against the
mail order evil, and the merchants in
many places have organized to drive
out a business that is a curse to all.
We do not think it superhuman!y
difficult to convince the people of this
part of the state of the Importance of
keeping their money at home. The
argument is very plain and it has
seemed to us only necessary to make
a systematic and determined fight on
this line. 1t is a certainty that moth.
ing can be accomplished if everything
is left to the other fellow. To win,
all must keep steadily at it.
During the coming year, there will
be many farmers and others who will
find it necessary to ask their home
merchants for credit to tide them over
until a better year. Undoubtedly,
they will get It, but they should dis
continue the practice that many have
followed, of sending their spare cash
away to the mail order houses, and
buying goods from their home merch-
ant on "jawbone." This year, more
than ever, many people will need the
assistance which the merchants will
be in a position to render. And it is
no more than right for the merchants
to expect their trade in return.
Primarily, it is only a spirit of a r
row and foolish selfishness on the
part of the individual that fosters
the buying-out-of-town spirit. If we
had a closely-knit community spirit, a
campaign against the mail order
houses would not be necessary. The
people who patronize these wolves are
quite willing to make their money
from their neighbors. AS we are all
mutually dependent upon n another
for prosperity, why could we not join
in a close effective campaign to in
res the prosperity of n another?
Assuredly we are not helping our
selves in the long run by taking bust
ness from our own communities for
the benefit of the mail order sharks
in Chicago and the east.
1t may interest u readers to know
that the system of keeping money at
home is the foundation stone of the
wonderful upbuilding of German COM
mercial prosperity. The German peo-
pie have been taught to buy goods
"Made in Germany"
Money has been kept within the
Germa nempire. Before and during
the war this system has been followed
along carefully. The Germans all over
the world have been brought into this
campaign to buy goods from Germany
and the result is that at the begin
ming of the war the banks Of Germany
were fairly bursting with money and
at the end it will be found that of all
the nations engaged in this awful con
flict, except the United States, Ger
many alone will have a great finan-
cial equipment to resume its fight for
the worlds commerce.

The success Of future engagements
depends upon the present Chautauqua

take advantage of the opportunity
now afforded.

Alderman Krook said the city might
as well get along without an engineer,
unless he could be given the support Of
the 70 mcn but III eqv5hef ~ TIE work Of
that officer was taken entirely out of his
hands by the chairman Of the street
committee, as had been done in the past
year, it was certainly a waste Of money
to pay him a salary. Mr.: Krook de-
declared that the efforts Of the engineer
has been blocked in every way possible
by the head of the street committee,
which he declared was unfair to the
engineer and to the city.
Alderman Hamann, then proposed that
an engineer be employed for a term of
six months. The matter was laid over
until the adjourned meeting. s
All salaries of the ective officers are
to remain the same as last year. Sever
al appointments were laid until the
meeting to be held Friday afternoon. .

victim of the Mexican war, and after
describing the horrors Of the struggle
that had cost him his sight, held out a
tin cup. But his story did not move
the soldiers. and they passed on.
