 Tt1RIFTOGRAMS

Save and have.
 Every little makes mickle. Little strokes fell great oaks. A rolling stone gathers no moss. God helps those that help them selves.
 Spend one penny less than thy clear gains. Look before or you'll find yourself behind.
 The way to wealth is as short as the way to market.
 He that waits upon fortune is never sure of dinner.
 Money can beget money, and it's off spring can beget more.
 It is foolish to lay out money III purchase of repentance.
 Learning is to the studious and riches to the careful.
 Waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both.
 Remember that money is of the pro life, generating nature.

"Yes, you can tell 'em for sure that there s soon to be an other wedding in Brinkley and that both the parties are among our prominent young people and for the benefit of those who guess you may say that he has worn the uniform, y said one of my clever friends who has a sympathy for the newsgather.
 Tell lem you saw 1t In the Arsua "I saw something in the Argus a few weeks ago about the paving of a platform along the Union Passenger Station from the New Orleans Ave. crossing of the Rock Island around in front of the Rusher Hotel, the Union Station past the Cotton Belt freight station to the Cypress street crossing of the Cotton Belt. Now this is something that should be taken up at once and all Brink ley should get in behind it. Pve heard it said that the railroad promised the B1'inkley business men, several years ago, that this would not only be done but an umbrella train shed would be built. Now, keep up the agi- tation, MT. Argus Man. Pm sure that the Railroad Commission CTS would order it done if their attention was called to it. :" Thus spoke a man who knows, on Tuesday.
 1.-Two weeks have gone by and l haven't seen much work done along the line of draining GibsOn's lake and the other low places holding water and breeding mosquitoes, which are contemplated in the notice I saw published in the Argus quoting the Mayor and City Health Officer on this nuisance. How about it-is it going to be done this year?" asks a north

Here is one-a special fosl the B1inkley Boy Scouts and venture the assertion that fl they carry it out that they will attract more favorable com. ment both for themselves and) for their town than anything that can happen. Let them set tie on a Brighten Up or Bow Scout Day for Brinkley and on that day let them have a few barrels of good white wash made and then apply it to all trees and poles along the streets
 where the citizens themselves
 have not done this, charging a
 small sum therefor. There's no one who would not contribute
 to this cause and it would make
 old Brinkley look like a young Miss all dolled up in her spring duds. What say you, Scout Boys?

Six Chinamen were at one time partners in business in San Francisco says Walter Newton of Seattle. A creditor of the firm, after vain efforts 10 collect what was due him, found out that the money was in the safe but that the strongbox had six diff fcrert locks.

There are pessimists abroad in the land who are saying that the Victory Liberty Loan, subscriptions to which will begin April 21, cannot be put over" It is the same old crowd who said the war could not be won.

RETURNING SOLDIERS AND
SAILORS NOT FORGOTTEN

The returning soldiers and sailors
from Audubon county who have re-
turned home since their discharge
from the service have not been for
gotten and when the weather permits
Audubon county proposes to arrange
a celebration in their honor that will
do full justice to the occasion.
There il a fund FOR this purpose
and also committee whose business
it was to look after The farewells
when the boys went into the army
This same COMMITTEES will have
charge of the welcome home" cele.
brations and they are already max
ing plans for the big demonstration.
We are making this announcement so
the people will not get the idea that
the boys are being neglected. The
very opposite is true We all APP
preciate their coming home but on
account of the uncertainty OF the
weather it has been next to iInpos-
Sble to make any definite plans.
Had the weather man told us we
were going 10 have such nice weather
during January We might have had
the festivities then. We hope the
parents and friends OF the returning
soldiers will inform the boys in al
parts OF the county that a fittihg
celebration viii be held in Audubon
sometime later and that all nj them
will he expected to be here

CHANGE IN SUBJECT

Wait Mason mas gruwn Tired of
talking war and turns his attention
to the subject of good roads. Ac-
cording to his ryi hmic effort
We've talked so long OF shell and
shot, of captains and of kings, The
time has come at last / wot, to speak
of other things Lets turn our
thoughts form Petrograd to places
nearer home: we need good roads
and need them bad, and hence this
stirring ,pome. For years we've
struggled through the muck in weari-
ness ana grief, and only said when
W. were stuck. Il IS no time 20
beet We fiouDdCred through tN'
muddy pools. across the reefs and
bars, and lost our horses and our
mules and mired our costly cars.
we said Until this war has ceas-
ed our woes can't he discussed; but
when arrives the dawn of peace,
wen have good reads or bust. We've
rallied so long at kaiser Bill that we
may think it stale to talk of grading
down hill or filling up a vale.
But II is wise TO talk good roads in
