THAT it is the greedy, 10Th century corpor

advancing that knocks the town when it refuses

A Better Efficiency

!, America, thru her part in the war, appears
again to be demonstrating the old saying that an
individual, community or nation which enters
intellectually in unselfish cause, will come
out the better and stronger for it,
The very fact that nation is reaching out
for no advantages over others-rather is making
untold sacrifices in life and goods-already is
ping up invaluable benefits.
Not the least of these benefits is the building up
of administrative efficiency, the quality of doing
big things speedily and well-something in which
the nation has been woefully deficient in former
years.
We are acquiring the efficiency of Germany,
minus German brutality and oppression, and plus
an inspiring rock bottom spirit of democratic
pulling together.
That this great benefit will be lasting and per-
manent demonstrated in Tacoma Monday by
DIR. J. A. B. Scherer, head OF the section on state
cooperation of the National Council of Defense
after visits to Il states in which high and low
rich and poor pulling together for the govern
ment
As significant proof of this Dr. Scherer men,
toned the fact that in the south the blacks are
giving their best in the service of the country,
and proud of it, while the whites have thrown
overheard deeprooted racial prejudces to join
the blacks in common cause!
Administrative efficiency in America is to
mean every loyal man, woman and child on an
equal plane, keyed up to the greatest capacity
The great thing about it is that there is'no per-
son too lowly to have real, active part in the run
ming of government pledged ts-a high purpose.
And just in proportion this purpose remains
untainted by greed and avarice, will our admin
istrative efficiency" increase.

berger to the effect that Last year,
II the people of Cache had worked
the beets instead of attending the
county fair, 100000 would have
been saved, which were left in the
ground" Aside from the peculiari-
ty in construction, why should the
fact, that a large number OF beets
were left in the ground last year, be
used as a patriotic reason for aband.
oning the county fair this year. And

best reason in the world why the
