LEAVE FOR MILWAUK EE

Mr.. and Mrs. Earle NJ. Pease leave
this week for their new home in Mil
waulzee, after a fourteen year resi-
dence in Grand Rapids. They will be
greatly missed not only by their close
intimate friends, but by everyone who
have enjoyed their acquaintance and
friendship. In an official capacity as
officer in the First National Bank Mr..
Pease has always been efficient in the
discharge of his every duty to the
First National Bank and its interests
vet he has never allowed an opportun-
ity to go by where he could boost for
Grand Rapids and her commercial in
tarests. He has always been faithful,
active and persevering. il. pushing for
business and accomplishing results.
He leaves this city with an excellent
business record behind not only for
himself personally, but for all those
interests he has been associated with.
In going away, we don't feel like say
ing goodbye, for we expect to see
them back here often and Milwaukee
is not far off. We shall simply ask the
good people of Milwaukee to receive
and treat them as ideal citizens, who
come to them as excellent workers in
the Banking, Church, Schools, Clubs,
and Business circles, both of them be-
ing of talent sufficient to accomplish
great results wherever they see fit to
work What Grand Rapids loses, Mil
waukee gains. They both take with
friends for a long life of usefulness
and happiness.

STAND TOGETHER-BOOST!

A town always prospers best when
the people are all united to help one
another When merchants are will
ing to live and let live; when every
business man shows his faith in the
city Or town in which he lives by
sticking to and helping all in his
power every legitimate enterprise in
the town, and following the invariable
rule of getting everything he needs
at home. even though he can tempor-
arily do better elsewhere. There is
the greatest possible strength in union
of sentiment and union of action.
If there are any circumstances in the
world where reciprocity is valuable it
is at home. The merchant is depend
ent on the farmer. The farmer upon
the merchant and mechanic. There is
no such thing as success without CO.
operation, and where this exists there
Is the greatest prosperity.

BOY SCOUT
ADDRESSING

Those who attended the Sunday Ev-
ening Club services at the Congrega-
tional church to hear DR.. J. C. Elsom,
were not in any way disappointed.
DR.. Elsom has been teacher of
Physical Education and an "Apostle
Of the Apen Air. for the past twenty
five years. Since 1894 he has been
connected with the Department of
Physical Education of the University
Of Wisconsin.
He has lectured on matters of Per-
sonal and Community Hygience and on
the Physical Examination of school
children. When the Boy Scout Move
ment reached this country, DIR. Elsom
become at once connected with it be-
cause of his interest in the physical,
mental and moral development of the
young. In 1912, he gave courses of
lectures at Silver Bay, Lake George,
N. Y. fer the National Council of the
Boy Scouts of America.
He is therefor we'll qualified to
speak of the Boy Scout movement at
the present time. His talk was very
Instructive and entertaining. It was
illustrated by pictures thrown upon
the screen which added much to the
address, His talk was highly instruc-
tive and pleasing. 1t will add interest
to the movement in Grand Rapids.

COMMUNITY
SPIRIT

1t requires many people to make up
a community, and in that community
are many shades of religious and ma
terial beliefs. It stands to reason that
there is and will always be much va
rance of opinion.
Never are two people found whose
views are Identical on every subject,
nor even on any subject. Somewhere
the dividing line is found, and there
the community trouble begins.
Each of us is prone to think himself
right and all others wrong. 1t is hu-
man nature and will always be so.
But there is common ground upon
which all may meet, a forum from
which the community spirit may be de-
veloped to the highest degree. That
IS the. arena of free speech and pub
lie discussion of community affairs.
Where many are gathered together
and each gives his views as he sees
them, the majority is reasonably sure
to arrive at d propeT>conclusion on any
subject concerning our local welfare.
Such a course might be employed
to GOOD advantage in this community.
The craniums of our local people
are filed with excellent ideas for our
collective advancement. All that is
required is an opportunity for them
to be heard.
Shall we supply the opportunity?

TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS
Avoid unsuccessful men.

Avoid unsuccessful men.
Don't cover too much ground.
Be firm and quiet in bargain.
Don't waste vitality in overwork or
worry.
It pays to sleep well, eat well and
enjoy life.
Decide carefully and keep your de-
cision to yourself.
Don't brag of what you will dc until
after you have done it.
Don't try to mend heavy losses by
hazarding what you have saved.
Change methods as often as nee
essary, but not your chosen pursuit.
Content yourself with small begin
nings, but make the most of them.
Watch expenses. Neither spend a
cent needlessly, nor grudge a dollar
when necessary.

SAVE WHILE YOU CAN

During the war many of us formed
the very good habit of saving for
patriotic reasons and it is FORUM
ate that we fail to see that we should
continue to save for patriotic reasons.
AZ soon as the armistice was signed
the majority of our countrymen en-
tered into a wild delirium by spend
ing their money as fast or faster than
they earned it. AS result, we are
becoming a spendthrift nation and his
tory gives US plenty of examples of
the ultimate end of such nations
Greece and Rome. for instance.
This is not an advertisement for
savings bank, but at the same time,
their advice to save is mighty sound
and we should all follow it. It is
merely a matter of forming habit
and il is the most profitable habit you
can form. Of course, money is the
commodity we are most anxious to
save, but in order to do this we must
be careful of our living expenses. We
can all spend less than we are spend
inc. If we do not have the period
Of the war to look back on, we might
think this was an impossibility, yet
gee how manv things we went without
then and without any particular pri-
vation. It is simply the will to save
that most Of US lack and it is the
thing we must cultivate if we wish
to become successful. A spendthrift
is never well thought Of by anyone
but those who receive the benefits of
his spending, and his popularity gives
out with his money.

knowing that God was takirg care of
US and He did. The trip up the river
to bordeaux took one entire day and
the boats all along the way and the
soldiers on the long docks cheered us
and we cheered back. The process Of
custom inspection just before land
ing was interesting and our baggage
was so NoiuTninous that il required
quite a bit Of engineering TO corral and
transport it all to the dock and onto
the funniest little cart drawn by q
meek looking donkey. We remained
two days in Bordeaux and found it
most interesting and then started for
Paris where we spent a week looking
about the city and getting out in
structions for our final lap. When we
all gathered in the Paris rooms to meet
the chairman of the coinB,ittee We all
wondered where we would be sent and
I think we were all quite relieved
when it was settled just where we
were to go. Then off we went in pairs
to points unknown and for the purpose
of taking the message of Truth to
those who needed it. ! am not sure
whether we can now tell you about
the size of the camps and hospitals
around here but we will when we are
permitted. You will be amazed when
YOU learn how large they are and We
had free access to them all and mighty
interesting work it is. %
