THE HUM OF INDUSTRY

You can sing no song of prosper
ity save to the accomplishment OF
the hum of industry. When indus
try lags prosperity takes wings.
Factory smoke may mar the
brightness of the skies, but it works
wonders with the brightness in the
home.
And its brightness we are needing
in the homes of America to-day.
We've had enough of gleom the
last Is months to last a long time.
Bringing the boys back will help
tremendously. But if the boys come
back to a poverty of jobs it will be
another story.
Some of them have cdne to just
that thing. If you're doubtful scan
the Situation Wanted" column OF
the daily papers.
To make it worse America has ac-
quired the habit Of good times dur
ing the last four years. The world
war caused the nations of Europe
simply to lombard us with orders of
all sorts that enforced prosperity.
Everything went balloning, wages
along with the rest. The average
man made more money and more
easily then he ever had in his life.
Not infrequently habits of extrava
gance developed.
But the fact is that Americans
generally expect these conditions to
continue. There is no reason why
they should not, why the bottom
should fall out of things at all. We
have a far better opportunity than
our foreign neighbors.
Yet we will have to do our part to
makeithe most of these opportunities.
Uncle Sam owes a tremendous
amount of money to American indus
tries. Something like $4,000, 000.-
600 it has been stated. And he wants
to pay it. The industries need 1t to
branch out along independent lines.
And the yictory-Liberty Loan will
pay these debts. Will help keep
things going at high speed. Stave of
industrial stagnation-
That's exactly what all of us want
TO see done We want things; to
boom.
How much our bond purchases will
Indicate.
So help make industry hum !.
