FEW LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS

Friends Of community progress to
a certain extent will take a back seat
this year. AS a general thing, there
will be fewer local improvements the
country over on account of conditions
arising out of the war, than in pre-
Yious years.
That isn't saying, however, that
nothing at all of the kind will be at
tempted. This would be a calamity.
But only the essential improvements
will as a rule be attempted.
The people of Lordsburg are help
ing to pay for the war by purchasing
Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps;
they are also helping to pay for it by
increased prices for the necessities of
life. Taxpayers, therefore, are not en-
thusiastic about paying for unessen-
tial local improvements, though what
is necessary will exert its customary
appeal.
Some towns, however, have in years
past specialized upon the Unnecessary
improvements and neglected some
things that are more essential. 1t
will be we'll for US to take a look
around and hit upon what is really
necessary to keep Lordsburg a pro-
gressive town, and decide to abandon
that which is not essential to the well
fare of u community.

The Knitting Pays.

Some people have been inclined
to sneer at the fever of knitting
with which our patriotic women
have been seized, theoretically
it might seem more economical
to have all this work done in fac
tories on labor saving machines.
But practically the following
computation points in an opposite
direction. One woman says she
has knitted Al sweaters. The
only cash expense about it was
$500 for material, $l.83 per
sweater.
Now one of those sweaters
would be as comfortable to wear
as one for which you would pay
Sc to SO for in a store. 1t might
not be knitted quite as evenly,
but propably it would have bet
ter material. There is a tempta-
ton to adulterate in a factory
made article.
Of course when you buy a
sweater at a store you have to
pay retail prices, while the gov
eminent could buy at wholesale
prices. But when you consider
that the factories are driven with
war work, the government would
not get a low price. 1t is diff
cult to believe that these sweat
ers could be bought for less than
So to 81 apiece, and they might
cost more.
Hence it looks as if voluntary
labor was by far the cheapest
way to provide the men with the
knitted goods that will add enor-
mously to their comfort in cold
weather. And it helps pay for
the war as we go along. If the
government bought all this ma
terial the cost would have to be
allied to our war debt, and we
would be paying interest on it
for many years. Furthermore,
the material gets to the boys
quicker than if it went through
the rushed factories and govern
ment red tape.
So it looks like good business
in every way, for the govern
ment to look to the kind hearts
and ready hands of voluntary
workers for this form of sup
plies. The number Of women
seen knitting everywhere is a
splendid response on the part of
the women of the nation to this
call.

Southern Grant County Club
Chronicle of the Happenings of That New institution


Mart Hardin said that he had been
over to the county Jail several times
during the past week while he was at
tending court. Mart said he called
on several Of his friends from down

who were incarcerated on n charge
or another. Don't you ever want
any of your friendsl to call and see

county b~oarders. "Naw," he replied,
"they are all in here with me-" Mart
says he has a bad ase in court in
which he has been asked to assist in
the prosecution Of the A.. & N. M.

to be a member of this club, is suing
the road on account Of his cows. Re

for home consumption and states in
his complaint that the passengers on

night by one of the love-sick mem
bers who announced that love makes
the world go round. "Yep, but mar

spoke up Red McElgin.

for membership into the club for the
reason that he is sexton in the post

In this space, under this heading,
each weels will be published the do
ings and undoings OF the Southern
Grant County Club. This imaginary
organization has its club rooms in
Lordsburg and members come from
all parts Of the county to talk over
the subjects of the hour. The re-
porter Of these happenings will try
without malice or prejudice to chroni-
Gle the conversation and transactions
of the club. He trusts no one will
take offense at what they may be
reported as saying.
The question of appropriate dress
Tor the club came up at the last meet
ing and it resolved itself into a lone
necktie. Oh, pardon. Not that the
club will wear nothing but neckties,
but the cravats shall be alike. Sew
eral suggestions were offered, hut
Mr.. Gee Of the Roberts & Leahy
Mercantile Company carried off the
honors in his suggestion of a uniform
tie which he described as follows:
"You hold the tie in your left hand
and your collar in the other. Slip
your neck in the collar and cross the
left-hand end of the tie over the right,
with the left hand, steadying the right
end with the other hand. Then drop
both ends, catching the left with the
right and the other with the other. Re-
verse hands and pick up the loose end
with the nearest hand. Pull this end
through the loop with your unengaged
hand and squeeze. You will find the
bow tied and all you have to do is to
disentangle your hands"
The club is in need of a %janitor and
the matter of salary has been one of
relative to his hire. W. F. Ritter put
in motion that the %janitor earn
$4,000 a month, but that $40 be all
he got.
The income tax proposition has
come up for a great deal Of comment
among the members of the club.
Mike Mearey was asked what his in
come was and he said that it was
about 2 o'clock in the morning.
A near-catastrophe upset the club
Turing the week the income tax col
ector was here. Frank Coon invited
him over to the club one evening and
Introduced him around, but didn't ex-
plain just who he was. About mid
night one of the popular members got
to telling how much money he made
last year. The sum ran up into the
hundreds of thousands of dollars,

lively and then got in on the con
versation, as a week before this mem

Board of Trade a Town
Builder.

When a town is like acow's
tail - growing downward - it
needs a board of trade.
No town that aspires TO do
things can afford to be without a
good, live board of trade or5some
similar organization.
The board of trade is To the
town what the aggressive adver-
tisement 10 to the business man
it puts all the telling points
prominently before the prospec-
tive customer.
A live board never sleeps. 1t
is always alive to the possibilities
of adding another citizen aud an
other enterprise to the communi-
ty. And that is what builds
your town-the adding, one by
one of people and enterprises.
Men who do things, live wires,
do not locate in a town unless
there are inducements. That is
the one>great work for thelboard
of trade---to create inducements
to bring about conditions kthat
will attract desirable enterprises
and desirable citizens.
Manufacturers, dealers, bust
ness men are constantly on the
alert for LIVE towns in which
to locate their enterprises.
just a concrete illustration:
A citizen of the town of S
and one from the town of c.
are conversing with a chance
travelling acquaintance. The tray
eler mentions that he is DESTROYS
of locating a site for a manufac-
turing plant. The mar from S
passes the remark by as of no
concern to him, but the man from
G at once scents a prospective
enterprise for his own town. He
engages the prospect into con-
versation, gets his plans and a
knowledge of his requirements,
takes his address, and upon his
returning home, puts the matter
up to his home board. The pros
pect is communicated with and
found to be worthy. Induce
ments are offered which he ac-
cepts, and soon c numbers one
more enterprise.
But S had the same opportuni-
ty, only her representative was
asleep.
This is not an imaginary case.
1t is happening every day, and
all over the land.
The business that is worth hav-
ing is worth getting out and
hustling for, and without hust-
ling there is little or no business.
Business is not conducted in
graveyards-they are places of
rest.
The town that is big enough"
whose citizens can see nothing
more to be achieved, soon finds
itself growing like the cows tail
down hill.
The town that doesn't set out
and hustle for new enterprises
will soon find itself wondering
what has become of those it had.
Now. just what are we doing
to put this town on the map?
Better still and more pertinent
TO the question, WHAT ARE
YOU DOING?
One mar can't do it, two men
can't do it. Even the board of
trade can't do it unless it is
backed up and supported by solid
community sentiment that spells
PROGRESS in box-car letters.
Our. own actions will tell whether
we are citizens of a town or in
habitants of a graveyard.
