Aliceville and Carrollton last Friday

MIGHTY OAKS FROM
LITTLE ACORNS

The purchase if one Thrift Stamp
a week for a year will make you
the owner of So stamps, for which
you will have paid $13. Sixteen
Thrift Stamps can be exchanged
for one War Savings Stamp, worth
So at maturity. You can therefore
get three War Savings Stamps for
your So Thrift Stamps and will
have 81 worth of stamps left with
which to start your War Savings
account the following year. The
three War Savings Stamps will cost
you an average of 17-1-2 cents
each, making 52-1-2 cents. This,
with the cost of the Thrift Stamps
for which they are exchanged, will
make the total amount of your in
yestment in War Savings Stamps
$l2.52, for which you will receive
SIS at maturity, and in addition
you have 81 worth of Thrift Stamps
In other words, by purchasing q
Thrift Stamp a week for a year you
not only save $13 which otherwise
you would probably have spent
needlessly, but you make an ulti-
mate profit of approximately ST.
so in additiin by exchanging the
Thrift Stamps for War Savings
Stamps.

THE VENEER OF THE YEARS
BY WALTER CREEP.

struck bargain and invested his
last penny for q weeks board. Now
/ he was indeed at his rows end; II
he did not secure position there
was nothing else to do but turn
professional tramp. The prospect
was gloomy enough but 1t did not
discourage Merlin. IL only nerved
him to greater and more determin-
ed efforts.
] Being tired and, sleepy he was
shown to his room at once, and
made ready to retire Pedro will
be your bedfellow" said his host,
who guided him to his RON.
He'll be in about midnight and
suspect he will be pretty full,
he gets sore about you being here
and begins corvertin' around just
call me he is afraid of me. Good
night" and he closed the door
leaving Merlin alone.
S the Germans hot breath on her
II was some time between mid
night and dawn that Merlin was
awakened by being shaken rather
rudely. 1t was Pedro. he was
staring down at Merlin as though
he had been some antique mummy
suddenly showed into his bed. The
latter in turn stared up at him as
though he had been some evil spir-
it that had crept in through a ere
Wis in the wall. 1t was Pedro who
spoke first by Hell' he said who
are you?"
"Oh I'm a young fellow who
came in last night, and | am going
to be your bed fellow"
Eat so, BY hell, / think
have something to say to that, if
you don't do right | knock we out
of the bed, and by hell how do you
know my name?"
"Oh the fellow who runs this
Joint told me" said Merlin laugh
ing. And / believe we will get
along alright, wont WEI"
Hell bum joint and old man
damn Gringe Crook, an oh yes we
git long alright"
So Pedro turned in and was soon
asleep and snoring loudly, so loud
ly in fact, that Merlin found is i'm
,,o-.;l,Io 60 o,n,,ota ,,.itb him, Tho
next morning he offered Merlin his
hand and said Say | like you like
hell you fine fellow, let's be good
friends" and after what he had
heard the previous evening he ac-
cepted Pedros friendship gladly.
Later one of the negros who was
from Kentucky, struck up an ac-
quainance with Merlin and though
they had never met before his COM
ing to Smithville he perfectly
having seen him sever
al times in Louisville.
1t was yet early in the morning
when he started out to look for Il
position. His imperative necessity
demanded that he find something {,
TO do and find it at once and it was
with this in view that he made his
way to the only newspaper Office in
the town which he easily found.
The editor was at his desk with pa
Ders piled a foot high on each side
Of him and it was plain he was in
no good humOr. When Merlin en-
tered that gentleman looked him
over for a few miments and then
grufly said. "Well what is it,"

IN THE SHADOW
OF BLACK MOUNTAIN
(For the children)

tain whose summit projected far
above the clouds. At the setting
of the sun a darkness stole over II
and cast many curious shadow
over the country below. II was a
horror to all who lived within its
shadow and for this reason 1t was
called "Black Mountain" On the
peak of this mountain there dwelt
a mighty giant whose castle was
made of gold. Its respondent
CLEAN in the sinking sunlight was
a strange contrast TO the weird
veil of curtaining mists that hung
ever below its moated embrasure.
1t was enchanted, the home of imps
and evil spirits as well as the
stronghold of the regal giant, and
no one who crossed its threshold
was ever known to come back.
The country at the foot of the
mountain was ruled by king who
was much loved by his faithful
subjects. He had a daughter who
was fair as a poppy and as gentle
as the zephyrs of spring. A gal
liant prince, whose name was Mer-
thon, came once into the land and
Immediately fell in love with the
beautiful princess Lucreta. After
a brief courtship he asked the king
for his daughters hand in marri-
age. The king answered, go
thou unto yon mountain and bring
me the thief who has stolen so
many of my cattle and thou shalt
we'd my daughter" The Princes
heart sank within him, for he knew
he would have to enter the awful
shadow of the mountain or maybe
enter the very castle itself But |
his love for the princess filed him
with daring and he decided to go
any length to win her.
For three days he climbed with
out stopping to eat or drink. On |
the third day he came to a messy |
ledge where he could overlook a |
river whose channel was cut deep .
in the base of the mountain. Here |
he saw the giant wading in the
rushing water. There was a great |
stone just over the giants head, as
large as a small house, and it lay
balanced on a rock just below it,
the larger side over the river, and
the other side held only by a small
piece of stone connected with the
rock whereon Merthon stood. He
seized the pick-ax and struck the
stone and after a few strokes, the
great stone rolled down into the
river.
The Igiant was pinned beneath.
Merthon climbed down. to where
he lay, drew out his sword and
slew him.
When he returned with the
giants head there was great re-
oicing in the kingdom of Black
A great feast was pre-
pared and all the mobiles of the
ordered two great lions turned in
o the arena for the people to en-
10y lion fight. The princess
lanced near the cage and stopped
o watch them. With a mighty
oar, one of the lions broke the
)ars and sprang at the princess,
rushing her beneath his feet. The
Ither in fury sprang at Merthon,
who drew his Sword. Both the
ions were killed, but it was too
ate. The princess was dead. In
his despair Merthon. threw himself
into the castle moat and was
drowned.
Another and strange race dwell
At the foot of the Mountain They
laugh when the old inhabitants
ell of the times of the far past.
But the sunset still CLEANS with q
peculiar golden light and every
evening at twilight time, a strange /
curtain of fog enshrouds Black !

WHY COPY AFTER RUSSIA?

The Plumb plan for disposition
of the U. S. railroads is that the
workers must own the roads. !"
The l. W. W. and Bolshevik idea
is that the workmen supplant the
present owners and managers of
all industries and be given the
full" return Of their labors.
Lenine and Trotzky accom-
plished this result in Russia and
the workmen ran the industries
into the ground and themselves
out of a job.
Disciples of Lenine and Trotzky
are preaching the same doctrine
to American workmen, but they
do not explain that it is now
necessary to try and bring back
capital and managers to Russia to
put life into the industries
wrecked under the workmens'
management.
The reason for the failure of the
experiments simply this: Human
nature is the same in Russia as
elsewhere. Everybody favored
| the socialistic regime when no
one had anything to lose by it.
That is, everyone favored equal
division when they had nothing
of their own to divide. But as
soon as a man obtained a little
economic headway, he wanted to
keep it; he did not want to divide
it; he resented being compelled
to give up what, he had made.
Lenine himself had summed it
| up in a nutshell: He said, las a
worker, the peasant is a socialist;
but as a corn-seller, he is a bour-
geois. -
The rank and file of American
workmen are we'll educated men.
Surely they can see where the
present program of the radical
labor leaders and politicians will
bring them.
Now is the time to listen to
reason before we have a dupli-
cate of the Russian situation in
this country.
Graham guardian., 1919-10-24

filibuster in the closing days of
the last Congress.
Even the most sanguine re-
publicans have little hope that
the present session will witness
any solution of the railroad ques-
ton. The president four months
ago called on the controlling re-
publican majority in Congress to
draft the necessary legislation
that would permit the transfer
of the railroads from government
control. Nothing has been done
that promises concrete action be-
fore the special session ends and
the regular session begins in
December. And so it is with the
presidents proposals regarding
labor and the other questions
that the republicans in the cam
paign of a year ago promised to
quickly dispose of.
Truly, Senator Penrose's state
ment is confession both of
avoidance and incapacity. The
Pennsylvania statesman" with
peculiar effrontery, now seeks to
hold cat the hope to the country
thsG if a republican president
and another republican Congress
are elected next year, all the ex-
isting vexing problems will be
solved. We commend to Senator
Penrose and his associates the
immortal words of Abraham
Lincoln:
"You may fool some of the
people some of the time, but you
can't fool all of the people all of
the time"

EVER GET THIS VIEW POINT7

CltlZenS OF Arizona, support
your town or county paper if it is
decent. regardless of politics or
religion. Not merely because it
is entitled to share in the recogni-
tion of all home institutions, but
because it means a lot to you per-
sonally, though most of you will
deny it.
Suppose the editor isn't up to
your own mental caliber. He's
doing his best and probably CIV
ling more than the town pays for
= and dollars to doughnuts he has
more brains than most of his
critics. Suppose you do know
most of the town gossip before it
is printed, Readers elsewhere are
not so fortunate and the town is
often judged by the appearance
ofits newspaper. If you have no
newspaper, your town has not
arrived, and unless you get one
it never will arrive.
You take dailies and magazines
as you should do and have no time
for local trash, but just once a
year there is wedding. funeral,
or ey ent of some sort, either in
the family or outside of it, that
you would be mighty glad to see
preserved in print and pay two
or three dollars for the privilege.
Once in while. a matter of pub
lie concern arises that affects
your pocketbook much more than
the price of a subscription. A
word to your neighbors might
save the day, but no paper, no
chance. Had you glanced at the
special drive in the bum ad of
Cash & Co. in last weeks issue
youcould have saved the subscrip-
, ton price, but thinking you knew
all that was going on, you missed
| it. You saw by the paper that
Brown was going to realign his
affairs. 1t was only a hunch, but
you made a hundred dollars by
selling him something or buying
something of him. Never thought
about giving the paper credit.
1t will pay you to take your
home paper and throw it a little
business, even if you never read
| it. The Arizona Magazine is do
ing for the whole State exactly
what your home paper is doing
for your community, and. there
fore, has a similar claim. If you
want to know how to get them
both cheap, ask your editor for
his clubbing price. Arizona
