THE DOUBLE EFFECT
OF EcosoMy

When an American citizen, in
stead of spending 800 for some
thing he wants, denies himself and
lends the money to the Government
he performs a double service.
First, he furnishes the Govern
ment with 800 to use In the pros
ecution of the war.
Second, he has relieved to the
extent of 800 the drain ON our
goods and services" that is, ma
terials and labor. To make the ar
ticle or articles he would have
bought, or to manufacture Others
to take their place in The market
would require materials and labor.
In addition, to get the article to him
labor and freight space would be
required. BY doing without thu
article, he has left free a certain
amount of material to be used in
the same way, and he has also re-
lieved to a certain extent the trans
portaton facilities of the country.
This may not be much in the in
dlNdual case, but when hundreds ot
thousands and millions of Ameri-
cans pursue this course it means
millions and millions of dollars
loaned the Government, tremendous
quantities of materials left for
uses OF the nation in this war, mil
mons OF hours Of labor free 10. do
war work, and a vast amount Of
freight space free for national uses
These sacrifices are easy to make, ),
are small and trivial compared 10
the sacrifices that our soldiers ana
sailors make daily while they orfer
constantly their lives for their
country, the greatest sacrifice OF
all.

What Makes
This Possible?

Why is it that American farmers
today are able to go about their work
in peace, to cultivate and develop their
farms and to get the full results of their
work in freedom and peace?
Why is it that unlike the devas.
tated districts of Europe, their farms
are peaceful and prosperous and no
one interferes with their reaping the
full reward of their labors?
just one thing-the United States
Government.
The United States Government is
simply another way of speaking of the
people of America, because, of course,
the people are the government.

Montgomery county had subscrib-
ed $117,30 up to last night toward
its allotment of 1928, 100 of the
Third Liberty Loan. AS will be seen
this is something over One-half of
what is expected of us, and with
many of our neighbOring counties
"Going Over the Top" is is time the
citizens of Montgomery were hurry
ing to the rescue. The various COM
fnittees are busy canvassing the
county but you should not wait to
be asked but should go to your
bank at once and subscribe for all
the bonds you can possibly pay for.
We have heard of a few instances
where our citizens have borrowed
the money to buy bonds-so eager
were they to show their patriotism
and assist the Government in de-
feating the Kaiser and his band of
murderers. If all of our citizens
would show this spirit Montgomery
county would have long since ex-
ceeded her allotment. We are not
afraid this county will not reach
the amount allotted her but it is our
wish to over-subscnbe many thou
sands of dollars, and thereby show
the boys who are offering their
lives in the defense of the men,
women and children of this country
that the "folks back home" are en-
thusiastic in their support of them
and their cause. There is scarcely
family in this county that is not
able to own at least one Liberty
Bond and we hope our people will
awaken to the responsibility that is

,NON-ESSENTIALS
BY H. Arlington Bruce

BY H. Arlington Bruce
WE have been hearing much about the i'm
wv >portance of curtailing completely
W stopping industries non-essential to the
successful prosecution of the war. In line with
this suggestion might well be advanced another
about which we have not yet heard much as we
should
1t is important, not merely to curtail drop
nonessential industries but also to curJail or drop
non-essential activities in the lives of all indivd
uals really DESTROYS to serve their own best inter
ests as well the needs of their country.
This holds true at All times well as in the
present time -f' s---
There is hardly one of us but who if only he
will reflect on his daily doings, will find non-es-
sential activities which he could prune elimi-
nate to his great advantage. -...-,
You, Mr.. Commuter, going back and forth on
the train every day, do you really need that morn
ing and evening card game in the smoking car?
Is it an essential activity or a non-essential
one? Does it really contribute to the improve
ment of your life prospects?
Might it not be wise for you to devote at least
some of your time while travelling to thoughtful
discussion with other commuters, or. to the study
of ways and means for self-improvement?
An occasional card game is no harm. On the
contrary, to those fond of cards it has positive
value a mode of restful recreation-just as
have chess, checkers, dominoes ETC.
But to play cards daily-perhaps twice daily
would certainly seem to put card playing in the
category of an non-essentia activity that deserves
to be cut down.
So with the reading of eight fiction"
This, if a non-essential activity, is a harmless
one when practised in moderation 1t becomes
an altogether different matter if hours are daily
wasted in fiction reading.
The pruning knife is needed then. Also the
substitution of essential activity for the
essential. one of excessive indulgence in "1ively
stories.'
Or perhaps you have acquired the habit of go
ing to the theater night after nght. Can you
honestly defend this is essential activity?
Is it not rather a non-essential one, limitation
of which to a single night every week would be
helpful by leaving your evenings free for other
and more profitable pursuits?
These and similar questions you should ask
yourself in all seriousness. Consider the. stua-
ton.
You sincerely DESTROYS of lettering your
condition, of climbing higher and higher up the
ladder of success
You want to be successful for the sake of your
family well far your sake. You want
to do things that count, things that will
much to you in the way of larger earnings and in
creased respect among your fellow men.
1t surely should be clear to you that your
chances of realizing your ambitions will be i'm
proved in proportion you devote time and
thought to essential activities and dispense with
non-essentials.
Inventory your everyday activities, therefore,
and readjust them common sense dictates.
