Criterion.

A criterion is Of an abstract nature
and cannot properly be applied to a
person. 1t is a standard of Judging or
a rule or test by which facts, principles
and opinions are tried in forming a
correct judgment. A person could not
serve as a criterion because Of the va
ristions in human conduct. Tho cri-
terlcn Is always something which he
mains stable, thereby permitting other
matters Of more or less uncertain ma
tuEe to be tested by comparison with it,
as, for example, one might say, Paris Is
a criterion Of fashions.

The Double Effect of Economy.

When an American citizen, in
stead of spending 500 for some
thing he wants, denies himself and
lends The money to the Govern
ment he performs double service.
First, he furnishes the Govern
ment 500 to use in the prosecu-
ton of the war.
Second, he has relieved to the
extent of 500 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 the
article, he has left free a certain
amount of material to be used for
war purposes, a certain amount of
labor to be used i'll the same way,
and he has also relieved to a certain
extent the transportation facilities
of the country.
This may not be much in the in
dividual case, but when hundreds
of thousands and millions of Amer
leans pursue this course it means
millions and millions of dollars
loaned the government, tremendous
quantities of material left for uses
of the Nation in this war, millions
of hours of labor free to 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 to
the sacrifices that our soldiers and
sailors make daily while they offer
constantly their lives for their
country, the greatest sacrifice of
all.

HURLEY'S NEW CREAMERY
NOW In OPERATION.
Fine Building Fully Equipped with Lat
est and Most Up-to- Date Machin-
cry Ready for Business.

cry neduy lOL DuSlUcSSs
An addition to the industrial life
/ of the city of which Hurley and
the immunity should be proud is
the creamery erected ana equipped
) by the Settlers Cooperative Cream
cry Association. This new institu-
tion is now in operation and it is
hoped that it will continue and be
successful part of the business
life of the community. A new bus
mess enterprise necessarily needs
; the support of the public and it
is hoped that this will not be lack
ing in the case cf Hurley's new
. creamery. It's a benefit to the COM
: munity and especially as a factor
: in promoting the agricultural in
terests.
The first churn in the new cream
cry was made on Tuesday of this
week, when 720 pounds of butter
was turned out. This first lot of
: butter was shipped to a market in
: Chicago but later it is expected
that local consumption will take
care of the products of the cream
cry. The amount of butter and
other products which can be turn
ed out depends on the activity and
ability of farmers to furnish cream.
Already a good number of farmers
} are bringing their cream to the
creamery and the list will continue
to grow. Farmers are paid cash for
: their cream at a price above the
market price. Thorough business
: like methods are to govern the con-
duct of the affairs of the institu-
ton. The equipment for making
ice cream has not been installed
yet but will be in a short time and
the making of ice cream is to be
made one of the features of the
creamery. In addition a good quail
ity OF buttermilk will be OIL sale at
all times.
The creamery is located Just
north of the 500 line depot. The
building is 65x24 feet, constructed
of concrete blocks, and in size and
construction is fully up to the
standard. 1t is divided off into four
compartments, providing an office
room, churning room, boiler and
store rooms. A refrigerator will be
installed in short time. In the
J Churning room are a Dual churn
of 900 pounds capacity, a Wizard
pasteurizer of 800 gallons capacity
a buttermilk container, watts, wash
stands, scales, and the many other
items of equipment found in a
creamery. including a Babcock
cream and milk tester. A 12-horse
power boiler has been installed, by
> which hot water and steam may be
supplied for washing and cleaning
purposes. Everything in and about
the place is neat and clean, one of
the essentials to a successful cream
cry. The power for driving the
various machinery is supplied from
7H horse power electric motor.
Many other items go to make up
the equipment, each and every one
of the best and latest for the par
ticular purpose. A one-ton motor
: truck arrived this week and will be
used to convey cream from the
farms in the neighborhood to the
creamery. Peter Vanderhoek, who
had charge of a creamery at But
ternut previous to coming to Hur-
ley, is in charge. His reputation
as a buttermaker is of the best and
under his guiding hand the cream
cry should be a success. The pub
lie is cordially invited to visit the
creamery.

Mrs. E. J. Bennitt, who has charge of the Gift Shop, which is one of the departments of the Red Cross Tea Room. announces that the shop will be open for business to the general public without fail Monday morning, November 4, on the second floor of the War Work building.
 As all other branches of the Red Cross, this shop will have to depend on the generosity of the public for it's support and maintenance. At this time when one is thinking of their Christmas wits, even though it might be small, bit of handwork lends to the gift a more personal touch.
 The chairman expects to have ar ticles of every description and to suit every taste Orders will be taken from those who do not find just what they want This will afford an opportunity for women who are anxious to help Women skilled in needlework and who wish to help are urged to leave thc,s names with Mrs. Bennitt.
 Pieces of silk lace. ribbon and cre- tonne arc needed. Search your trunks for scraps. Materials for dolls dresses are especially wanted. The committee will appreciate it if women will vol unteer to dress dolls.

PLACING COST MARK ON GOODS NOT BEST
 ID SERVE PURPOSE

While he has no knowledge of the action that may be taken by the state council of defense, of which he IS chair man, Charles E. Addams yesterday stated his own opinion regarding the recently adopted resolution of the council regulating the marking of cost prices on merchandise offered for sale
 In view of the fact that the suspen- sion of the rule indeterminately, and for period of no less than 30 days was passed by the council, and that period having elapsed. MT. Addams be- lieves that the merchants of the state should be apprised of his own stand in he matter. He said:
 While the state council of defense is unalterably opposed to profiteering in every form, we do not believe that the resolution adopted August 15. and indefinitely suspended at the Septem- her meeting, is the best method of eliminating it. As shown by the state ment of Arthur W. MacMahon. assis- tant chief of the federal agencies sec ton of the council of defense, published in yesterdays paper, the placing of both cost and sales price on shoes was considered impracticable by the war industries board. I am confident tha t no action will be taken by the state council in this matter that does not conform win the policy outlined by the national government"
 MT. Addams will represent this state at the general meeting of state chair men in Washington, November II and F. This meeting has been called, it is

Captain Braxtan left Phoenix last May and has been in France since July
 Enclosed in his last letter is the fol- lowing poem written by friend over there":
 Mechanic, workman, farmer, clerk, Dentist and doctor, too. Have left their homes and loved ones
 all,
 Because there was work to do; While others who are able and young. Have stayed at home to shirk. Just look around, then ask, as we do. Away off 'here at work. Who are the cusses, back there at home, Some hiding behind skirt, While better men, on the firing line, Have barely pants and shirt. What is the excuse they hand to you, For daring the wrath to come, While others you love have marched
 away,
 To the sound of the rifle and drum Does their excuse ''go down. with you, The fairy tales they tell? It won't with us, when we come back, We're going to give them HELL: The man who is really needed at home, Does glorious work right there, And of the fruits of victory
 Is entitled to his share. But this is our message from overseas TO the fellow who don't play fair: WHEN GERMANY'S HELPERS ARE
 ALL WHIPPED HERE, WE'LL TROUNCE THEM OVER
 THERE.
