MOLINES STAMP
DRIVE A FAILURE

Undoubtedly the one and only
patriotic enterprise In which Moline
failed to reach expectations was
the war savings stamp drive Mo-
line was assigned a quota of $780,
200, or $50 per capita Including
the sales of Dec. 30 there had been
but 1928, 920.07 worth of the stamps
purchased-lesst than 40 per cent OF
the allotment
Reason for failure has been at
tributed to inability of the public
to grasp the urgent necessity of
buying stamps, or to Inability 10
appreciate the winning proposition
offered by the government in the
stamp plan.
George w. Carpenter vas chair
man of the Moline district, and with
a corps of workers launched an in
tensive campaign to stimulate sales.
Despite vigorous efforts, the cam
paign was only partial success.

choice could not have been made
when the following professional
men have been entrusted to ad
Indicate legal matters for the
public: Henry ]. Hersey, new
presiding judge, Charles G. But
Ter. Julian H. Moore, c. j. Nor
ley and Greely w. Whitford.
1t is unnecessary to go into the
lives and legal ability of these
judges as their popularity gotten
by their decisions in some Of the
most important cases, as well as
as verdicts in their favor in their
capacities as Attorneys give US
the proof that the people of Den
yer will have none other but the
right men for the right places.
With such a personal as is our
good fortune to have at this
time and a clerk of the district
court in the person of William
A. Dollison whose motto" the
people first, Z" endears him to all,
there is bound to be harmonious
working among the Distrist
Judges and their entire staff OF
assistants and a happy co-rela-
tionship between our Judicial
element and the people.

When at Work Keep Busy.

Sometimes an abundance of time
spoils a man for the best work.
1t has been noted that most men dc
their best under pressure. Too ofte6
men are spoiled by not being kept
busy during office hours. 1t may be
there are some who can stand to be
busy by spurts. But the average man
begins to loaf when occasion offers
and can't "get the gait" when the
rush comes. Besides, there is dam
ger of developing habits of procrasti-
nation when the job is Indifferent as
to time. AS a matter of fact most
men allow job to lie until they have
just time enough to produce 1t any
way. So the wise man will keep him
self busy. He will see to 1t that he
de<elops the habit of getting down to
business as soon as he reaches his
office. He can then afford to leave
his business at the office where it be-
longs and enjoy himself at home and
get ready for the next day.
