"AMERICANISM A LIFE"

Some paragraphcr says that Amer
icanism is not "a thing but IA life.
Bolshevsm, /. w. Wism and The
rest, are things" fine conception
and finely stated. Like religion,
Americanism is life founded upon
n great and eternal principle. In this
great family of Americans there is
no place for Alien disturbers and
unwashed, reactionary obstruction
lists. All such should be expelled from
the brotherhood and not permitted
room on the sacred soil upon which
u pace their unhallowcd feet. The
doors of the palaces of peace swing
smoothly on hinges to those who
honestly and Loyalty seek admttance,
but are barred immovably to the
entrance of the evil minded and the
unregenerate. The portals should be
more closely, more zcalously guard
ed. Upon one pretence or another,
taking mean advantage of an open
hearted and Il too enient policy,
thieves and robbers have slipped in
men whose sole object has been and
is still. to sow the seed of discord
and ruin amongst us. If these will
not repent and become converted
they should be removed or DESTROYED.
They are stencil in the nostrils of
Gods people. Americanism is a sane
titled life, and like Christianity, to
repeat, is worldwide in the sweep
OF its sympathies. The Peace Treaty
is an expression of worldwide Amer
icanism, and to attempt to "Amer,-
caniZe the treaty" bottle it up in
America, is reactionary-as much so
as to limit and confinc the gospel of
good works and bcneficent deeds t.
our own chores. The old slogan.
America for Americans" rs abso-
lutte. The slogan should be, "Amcr-
icanism for the world"

EXTRAVAGANCE AND WASTE

When money is plentiful as il is
now, people ego wild" us one man
puts in, and spend it with lavish
hand. Naturally, too, the more we
have the more we spend People have
money now who had little or none Il
few years ago, Men and woman, boys
and girls, black and white, have
money to burn" these days who
have not been accustomed to handl-
ing except in small amounts, and
their heads are turned.
Such eXtravcgant spending rs it
going on now has never been known
before. During the war we practccd
economy. We saved money by buy
ing, eating and wearing less Prices
were high but we saved our money,
and piled it up in war stamps, Lib
erty bonds etc, we lived chemply
and lived we'll at the same time.
After the war-poof! We turned our
selves loose and tried how quickly
we could spend all we had saved.
Wages still remained high, mGncy
flowed like water down hill. Prices
of goods of all kinds scared. Mcr
chants asked what they chose. "Thcy
shut their eyes and charged" as one
man stated. The purchaser paid the
price and asked no questions. And so
it is going still.
The point hoped to be emphasized
here is warning. These days of the
full purse will not last. There's go
ing to come reaction. The bubble
will burst. This high tide of business
will have its ebb. Ought we not to
still practice economy? AS we are
still forced to pay war time prices
should we not practice wartime
economy? An excess of money and
lavish buying contributes to high
prices.
To want to live we'll and to SCI,
others live well, is all right, and
commcndable, but careless, foolish
extravaganza in dress or food is
beyond eXcusing. The proverbial
"rainy day" will come, and lots of
folks who are trying how fast they
can spend their money wont have
enough left to buy cheap umbrella.
But whats the use. Not reader of
these lines will pay the slightest at
IGNITION to them.
