Friday, September IL, 1919

Man came to dominion over
the brute, not because he outdid
him on the coarse and savage
side, but because he had in fuller
measure the powers nature puts
premium on, and among men
those have gained leadership and
shaped the destiny of the race
who have been first on the hu-
name and manly side rather than
on the savage and animal side.
The hardest of beatitudes to un-
derstand is Blessed are the
meek for they shall inherit the
earth," and yet it is the truest.
The coarse, and harsh, and cruel
leave no permanent traces any,
where. And the same holds true
in regard to the advocates of
Bolshevism, |. W. w. ism and
violence will be conquered by
the ever forward march of in
telligence.

PAY YOUR DEBTS FIRST

Every progressive bank in the
nation is constantly urging the
public to get the habit of saving
and paying off it's debts. Con-
trary to the opinion of many, a
banker is not interested in hav-
ing customer loaded down with
debts.
Owing debts, and being a bor-
rover at a bank are two differ
ent things. A banker extends
credit to enable business to be
carried on. In one way this is a
debt, but it is a vastly different
debt from the kind owed by a
man who simply fails to meet
his obligations for lack of sys-
tematic saving.
A bank must loan money to
live, but it wants to loan to peo-
pie who save. The day of the
Shylock is, passed as the modern
bank must live from prosperous
and not bankrupt communities.
George E. Roberts, vice -presi
dent of the National City Bank
says: 1.-The banker can render
no better service to the farmer
than by advising him to use the
proceeds of present high prices
to pay off his debts. 1t is a sing
ular fact that people commonly
go into debt in good times and
pay their debts under pressure
in bad times.
The Winslow mail., 1919-09-12
RESOLVING THE PROBLEM

Economists whose speciality is
finance are telling us that the es-
sence of the great problem which
now confrop is us is in the simple
equation of production and cost
that we are spending too much
and producing too little.
People generally. say these
specialists in the money market,
are receiving more money than
ever before, with the exception
of a small class known as conser-
vative investors, deriving income
from high grade securities. The
masses of the people are getting
this money in higher wages and
increased profits. The rise in
wages has affected every work
ing element in the community.
The Winslow mail., 1919-09-12
REDUCE COST OF LIVING

Taxation, high cost of living,
high wages, shorter hours, less
work and more production, are
some of the mystifying phrases
one hears today. Everyone is
showing the burden onto some
one else.
AS a start to reduce cost of
living the present inequitable
and misnamed luxury" tax
could be repealed or amended,
thus removing a direct increase
in the cost of living on many
absolute necessities, from drug
and toilet articles to candy and
ice cream.
This law was passed in haste
to meet war conditions, it can
now be repealed or amended at
leisure to meet peace conditions
and the sooner the better.

railway executives. Profits o f
little business" are larger than
ever, the increase having it's ex-
cuse in higher operating and
overhead expenses. Butcher,
baker and candlestick maker-all
have taken their toll. In order
to meet the expanding needs Of
business, our per capita circula-
ton of currency was increased
from S34.53 in July, 1914, to
S54.29 in June, 1919.
Wages have practically doubled
IN five years; possibly the scale
of profits has increased almost
as much; the amount of money
in circulation has increased 81
percent. But the output of arti-
cles comprised in the cost o f
living has shown a falling off. In
other words, as the result is
viewed by money dealers, our
living cost problem has been
caused by the conjunction of a
greatly increased buying power
speaking in terms of money-and
a smaller supply of things to buy.
Speaking in terms Of barter,
values have changed practically
not at all. Bacon, eggs, butter
or clothing can be traded for
about the same amount of flour
or wheat that would have been
their equivalent five years ago.
1t is extremely doubtful if the
claim that we are receiving fewer
of the necessaries of life in re-
turn for our labor than we re-
ceived in 1914. 1t is certain,
however, that we are, for the
most part, living better than be
fore We are adding luxuries to
our lists of purchases, and in
many cases we have accumulated
comfortable savings accounts
during the past four years. Our

experience ought to convince US
of this fact. If it were true that
there has been no profit on the la
Dor of the nation, how would it be
possible eforhundreds of thousands

The money experts tell us that
we can put away our fifty-cent

Athletics

Last Friday, March %, Spencer MT
Lodi for a game. Our trip was pleas
ant going over but coming back some,
if not all, were little vexed at the
Lodi bunch.
The boys game came first and al
though there were numerous cheers
from Lodi's rooters there was one we
know they had learned by heart be-
cause they gave it so many times.
It was that famous 1000, WOW WOW,
Goo, WOW WOW, Lodi, Lodi, Goo, WOW
wow" The lineup for the boys were:
Roy Brouse, G; Quinton Dickson,
L. F.; Robert Miller, R. F.; Marion
Brouse, L. G.; Clyde Dague, R. G.
Lodi won by score of rs to Z but
with considerable roughness. AS most
of our spectators will agree, Lodi has
it's reputation alongside Lagrange. AS
the girls game came on our rooters
had lined up along the wall, with
Merlin Bement at the end. Some OF
the opposing rooters lined up and
gave "'battering ram" and gave
Merlin's new long pants an initiation.
The girls played hard and fast and
one or two could hardly restrain their
temper. Some of our loyal town peo-
pie who accompanied us declared the
game unfair because we had to take
out our most noted and famous center,
Carrie Jacobs. AS Lodi was used to
two centers, of course we had to play
that way, so the first half Of the game
was played with Laura Fuller and
Faye Beymer as centers, and, Rose
Weidrich, r. F.; Linnie Aldrich, l.. r.;
Alice Hayes, r. G.; Martha Winters,
L. G.
The last half was finished up with
Laura as center. The score is not
exactly known as some declare Spen-
Ger won, others say it came out tie,
and for that reason it is not recorded
here. We were pleased with the game
and "Scoot" or "Sue" was equally
matched by Alice Hayes. Most of us
are thankful that they gave us nc
lunch because we don't like EPSON
salts. We all feel sorry for Olmstec
Falls and we would like to see Lodi
and Lagrange meet because as the
saving goes, they are "two of kind.
