magazines show, as nothing else
does, the characteristics and pro-
gress of the age along material
lines. And they do far more
than that. Present-day adver-

with so much intelligence and
art that it makes psychological
appeal hardly equalled in any
other branch of human endeavor.
The reader cannot get away from
the good ad. 1t seizes hold of

OUR BREAD AND BUTTER

In these days of uncertainty it
is encouraging to note reports
which show the planting of in
creased sugar beet acreage. for
this will mean increased develop
ment of the sugar industry in
the west. Also, it will aid the
stock industry through furnish
ing large quantities of cheap
food from the beet pulp and tops.
During the reconstruction per.
iod, when business is again gair.
ing its stride and preparing to
compete in the markets of the
world. westerners must learn to
think in terms Of industry. They
must learn to demand AMI fight
for state and national policies
under which western indurstries
can develop and meet competi-
ton successfully.
In population, western states
are small, hence it is necessary
in questions of this kind that we
combine our efforts for policies
which will assure development
of our natural resources and in
dustries.
The sugar industry is an ex-
ample of the benefits of manu-
featuring to the farmer, but the
success of the sugar industry de-
pends upon steady labor supply
and sound national policies. The
same holds true in regard to
virtually all our great industries.
We, as a people, in a sparcely
settled and only slightly devel-
oped section, must learn to think
in terms of industry and must
make up our minds to swat the
agitator and legislative crank
who would experiment with our
very bread and butter.

THRIFT MEANS SUCCESS

At the First District Texas
Bankers Association Annual Con-
vention, held at Houston, Texas,
recently, A. M. Stubblebine, rep
resentative of the War Loan Or
ganization of the Eleventh Fed
eral District said, Every bank
er should assist by every means
in his power in the producing of
goods for export" He pointed
out that a community that lived
by taking in one another's wash
ing would not get very rich, but
directly that community reached
out and secured a bundle of
laundry from some other city,
they would be making some local
progress. Speaking of the need
of thrift among the farmers, the
speaker emphasized the point
that thousands of farmers lived
out of tin cans instead of grow
ing their own produce for the
table, and that thousands, pos
sibly millions of dollars worth of
produce IS allowed to spoil every
year. The bankers were urged
to spread thrift ideas among the
farmers.
Bolshevism, declared the speak
er, cannot exist where govern.
ment securities are freely sold,
because when the State owes a
man money he becomes financial
ly interested in upholding law
and order.
Referring to the coming loan,
the speaker expressed himself
as having absolute confidence in
the sense of justice of the people
of this country. To say that the
American people would order
victory and peace and then hav-
ing received the goods refused
to pay for them, the speaker
said was a criminal SANDER. The
highest tribute was paid to the
unselfish attitude of the bankers
in supporting the government
activities.

THE CALL FOR MEN

Uncle Sam, we hear you calling
For men who are brave and true,
Go help your Allies now falling
For tine freedom of me ana you;
We are going to be brave soldiers
Ger the sea in a foreign land,
With English and Frenchmen stanC
shoulders,
As we march to the music Of the band,
We are going to help win this war
On the land and on the sea,
Though the way be dangerous and far
We will fight for our liberty,
We have got the best Of leaders,
Men who are brave and true blue,
Who will lead us to victory, my readers,
Whose hearts are loyal and true.
Yes, loved ones, we are going
Where we'll hear the cannon sound,
And the bullets, comrades moving,
Lying, wounded on the ground.
Friends and loved ones bear your grief,
Which is placed upon you now,
God give your aching hearts relief,
Smooth with hope your furrowed
brows.
In sorrow and sadness we left you,
AS we gave the last clasp of the hand,
With the words on your lips, God
bless you,
While you fight in foreign land. "
The prayers of "A nation ascend to
A God whose love is supreme.
To comfort, bless and protect you,
And bring you back loyal and clean.

REDUCTION UNDERSTOOD

Owing to the fact that the gov
ernment, accumulated something
like 800, 900, 900 pounds of copper
during the war, and the further
fact that the demand for the red
metal has fallen off, it is incum-
bent upon the producers of the
United States either to reduce
wages or shut down their mines
and mills. After a conference,
in which mine owners, govern
ment officials and representatives
of the union participated, it was
decided that the adoption of the
former course would be for the
best interest of all concerned.
The government has agreed
not to break the market, and VIII
allow the producers to supply
nine-tenths of the copper de-
manded, thus insuring work for
the miners.
Prices, however, are declining,
and it is no longer possible to
pay the war scale. This being
the case. a reduction in wages
was inevitable if the properties
continued in operation in the face
of a limited demand. The min
ers, being in full possession of
all the facts in the case, have
accepted the situation with good
grace in Utah and elsewhere, for
they realize that a shutdown was
one of the alternative PROPOSE
tions. In the opinion of Charles
H. Meyer. president of the In
ternational Union of Mine, Mill
and Smelter Workers, the pro-
ducers have done the right thing.
The |. w. w. element has at
tempted to cause some trouble as
usual, but will find as little SYM
pathy as it did in the Seattle
strike failure. Common sense
and a level head will get more
results now than the revolution
ary methods of the Reds.

CULTURE IN ADS

Says publicity expert: The
man who disputes the cultural
value of advertising has never
read an ad, or is incapable of
thought. He has only to look at
any newspaper, any street car,
any magazine, to see the truth.
There is no greater force in educa-
ton.
This statement is hardly an ex.
aggeration. 1t reminds one of
the old story of Rudyard Kipling,
who criticised an American friend
for sending him magazines with
the advertising sections removed,
when the ads were what ne
wanted most.
Certainly the advertising

THE RED CROSS NURSES

The Red Cross nurses have loving
smile,
They have hearts that are loyal and
true,
And do their work with joy all the
while
They bring comfort to me and you.
They may not be found in the country
hills,
Nor sail with us over the brine,
But they anxiously listen to sllsthe ills
OF comrades of yours and mine.
If their help is needed Ger the deep
sea wave,
They'll be ready with glad heart and
hand,
Administering comfort. to o-heroes brave
Who are wounded in that foreign
land.
Perhaps today some are called away,
On the Western Front" to 20,
Some hero to save, who is loyal and
brave,
My comrade, or yours, God knows.
There surely somewhere lowly place,
Somewhere on the Western Front, "
Where they may labor with love and
peace,
A life or death case they confront,
So we'll trust our ills to their tender
care,
Ourgratitude surely they'll know,
And let there ascend from your hearts

A GOOD MOTTO

One of the largest and most
successful shoe buyers in the
United States has the following
motto framed on his desk. He
says he owes most of his success
to its influence upon his life:
"Let me be little kinder, let me be a
little binder
To the faults of those about me; let
me praise aiittle more;
Let me be, when am weary, just a
little bit more CHEEKY;
Let me serve little better those
that am striving for.
Let me be little braver when tempta-
tion bids me waver,
Let me strive little harder to he all
that should be.
Let me be little meeker with the
brother that is weaker;
Let me think more of my neighbor
and a little less of me-"

two men we're on their way to the
Junction city who had robbed houses
and stores all the way down from

was sent northward to get on the
trail of the bandits. after 1t had been
learned that on the night of April
30, the pair had robbed Fred Han

The posse sighted the men on the
morning of April 80, at the Hot

pursuing. They climbed up on the
rough and rocky ground immediate
