THE BUSINESS HYPocRITEs.

You know il is right difficult to
get people to believe that a man is in
terested much Lamesa when he
sends all his printing out of town or
orders everything he can from mail
order houses. 1t is like the hypocrite
in the church. He is just as much a
hypocrite at the professed christian
that goes TO church Sunday and runs
with the devil all the week. A bust
ness hypocrite and religious hypo
critic is exactly the same.--Dawson
County News.
Lamesa is not the only place that
people send out Of town for their
printing. Right here in Lubbock,
where there is a printing plant that is
equipped for turning out anything
that is printed. some people have an
idea that If il is printed at the home
office that it will not be as good as
that printed in some city shop. As "a
result they often get inferior print
ing-printing that they would not ac-
cept If the home printer delivered it
to them, but they look upon it, and
call il good if it comes from some
out Of town shop. Strange but true,
yet these same people expect the To-
cal newspaper to boost 'em every step
in the road, which we meekly do, for
the sake Of hometown loyalty and

FALSE ECONOMY.

There is a deluge of false economy
that sweeps the rural districts of the
country, continually, and it is costing
the farmers millions Of dollars every
year. and that is the idea that few
hundred dollars spent in building
sheds for their machinery is waste
of coin.
This year, as high as they are, there
will be hundreds of row binders and
other harvesting machinery purchased
by the farmers of the South Plains,

ADOPTED
132 YEARS AGO TODAY
Forty Eight States Which Grew
Out of Colonies Are Observing
Anniversary.

One hundred and thirty-two years
ago today the Constitution of the
United States was adopted by the
constitutional convention and the lit
tie nation of colonies rejoiced with
celebrations.
Today the forty-eight states which
grew out of those little colonies are
observing the anniversary.
Although the grand review which
is passing along Pennsylvania ave-
nue. this afternoon is not in memory
of the adoption of the Constitution,
it bears testimony to the progress
which the United States has made un-
der the principles laid down in the
document which was signed by the
colonists 1872 years ago.
Governors of twenty states of the
Union have officially designated Sep
TENDER II Constitution day.
The National Security League, in
an effort to combat radicalism in TINS
country, has been carrying on cam
paign to acquaint the people of the
nation with the ideals and principles
of the Constitution. and today they
are bringing the campaign to climax
with patriotic celebrations in cities
and hamlets throughout the land.
So far as can be learned, no special
observance of the day has been plan
ned for Washington. But Washington
is giving noisy expression to it's faith
in the Constitution by cheering the
1st Division as it marches in grand
review.

COOPERATE IN TRAINING.
Soldiers Being Paid for Work Done
While STUDYING.

The whole-hearted cooperation
given to the federal board for voca-
tionaltional education by Industrial,
commercial and educational institu-
tons in the work of retaining dis
abled soldiers has been of untold
value in the accomplishment of the
purposes of Congress in the enact
ment of the vocational rehabilitation
law.
Some employers have even gone SO
far as to admit their Indebtedness to
disabled men who have been placed
in their establishments for training
purposes. In recognition Of the
money value of the work done by
these men in training, certain en-
ployers have paid them wages.
Men in placement training are paid
at the same rate as those training in
colleges or schools, and no deductions
ere made by the board in the train
ing pay of these men because OF
money earned incidental to their
work while students in shops, Offices
farms or elsewhere.

Arise and understand

To the drum and the bugle's call;
As it tasted the dregs Of raw reverse
As it rushed through the breach in the wall.
As it fell again on the gore-wet plain
Till new hands swung it high
As it dipped in rest to east and west,
Where it watched its children die.
As it swept anew DER the shotted blue,
And the great gulls reeled in fright:
As it bore the brave meath the whispering
wave
To the squadron's hushed goodnight.
As it mounted sheer mid cheer on cheer.
Till, far DER land and sea.
1t gave each fold to the sunlights gold
And the name of victory.
Then on your feet when the first proud strain
OF the anthem rolls on high
And see that We stand uncovered
To the colors passing by;
And pray to your God for strength to guard
The flag We glorify.
