Mhv Society Permits Profits.

From The Kansas City Star.
 A strike leader in Lawrence, Mass, told a correspondent of the New York Times that the demand of the textile workers for forty-eight hours work with fifty-four hours pay was only the beginning. They expected by gradual stages to get up to the point where virtually the entire product or the m illswould go as wages.
 That sounds alluring. But 1t recalls the theory of the man who believed horse could live on nothing and so re- duced his rations until the animal had one straw a day, when the experiment was suddenly ended by the horse s death. There might be no industry left about the time the strike leaders ideal was realized.
 The mill owner isn't permitted to realize a fair profit on his investment because the people love him. He gets his profit because society hasn't found any other successful way of getting men to risk money in putting up mills and operating them.
 If man can't make money by an investment involving risk, he will put money into government bonds or first mortgages. Possibly a few genera tions hence the government might un- dertake to build and operate textile mills. But it is perfectly certain that ] if it undertook the job now it would | go broke. At least the mills would be so inefficiently operated that the fab rics would be too expensive for peo- pie to buy. The experiments in gov ernment ownership and operation that were conducted during the war con- vinced everybody who had anything to do with them that the government isn't anywhere near fit for that sort of work.
 The only scheme society ahs found anywhere that works to the best ad- vantage of the whole community in producing cheap goods is to permit private energy and initiative to un- dertake the job under the incentive of a reward. If the reward is abolished, as the Lawrence strike leader desires, then the job isn't done, and the work CTS and the community alike suffer.

War Tank was here Monday

Last Monday, the day in which
the war tank was exhibited in Mil
bank was fron ned upon by Jupiter
Pluvins, and during the preceding
night a steady rain continued to
fall and the wet drizzly condition
continued during the day, SO that
the planed for celebration of the
event had to be abandoned. The
tank when taken from the fiat car
was housed in Brannon's auto gar
age, to where there was q contin-
ual stream of visitors. Just be-
fore noon the tank made a trip
around town, going over by the
school so that the school attendents
could see it at work. and in the
afternoon it was brought up on
Main street and gave an exhibition
Of its travelling capacity and turn
ing qualities, and went over to the
north side of the track in the vi
cinity of the viaduct to show it's
climbing ability. The machine at
tracted a great deal of interest,
and it is to be regretted that wealth
er was such as to prevent the peo-
pie from the country coming in to
have look at this war machine,
one Of the inventions Of the great
war.

The Paradox Of War

1t is the paradox of war that its
sacrifices may enrich the world.
Americas latest war has cost
thousands Of lives and untold agony,
first to the wounded and then to the
men and women and little children
who have stayed at home, power
less to do more than to work and to
pray, and who loved with an ever
increasing love those heroic ones
who laid down their lives, or who
suffered the tortures Of the PHYSICAL
body that the civilization Of a
Christian world might live.
Against this fearful total it is
possible. however, to balance a
credit which may remove something
of the horrors Of four years of
strife. It may be that America
alone is able to marshal such list
Of war assets, and if SO it is simply
another testimony to the miracle
of democracy. But there are
millions Of men who have been
given a kind of health they never
hoped to have. There are tens Of
millions, a hundred million Ameri-
cans who have been elevated in soul
and purified in heart by the sacrifi-
ces of patriotism; and smallest per-
haps of all these items there are
scores Of millions of Americans who
have been taught by the exigencies
of war the invaluable lessons of
economy and thrift.
In the face Of what was consid-
cred an almost insuperab!e obstacle,
the high cost of living, more
women and children in all walks
of life have been taught that in
America lf-denial need not reach
the point Of, want to enable one to
lay by store for the future, or to
contribute to common cause.
There is scarcely an Individual in
the United States who is not. or
has not been, the possessor Of a
Liberty Bond or a War Savings
Cert;tit ate. These securities repre-
sent power that has been stored up
for future use. This power has for
the time being been placed in the
hands Of the Government
Like a torch, it is to be restored
to its owner with its fame undi-
minished. while the business and
industries of the nation must pay
the cost Of the struggle that made
their continuance possible.
The Fifth Liberty Loan campaign
offers probably the last big oppor-
tun;ty to lay by savings with the
corporation and for the assistance
of the Government. 1t should be
the endeavor of every citizen who
has sacrificed for the cause of
America to see to it that he reaps
his full share Of the benefits the
striving and the victory have
brought. particularly in so health
full an exercise Of civic duty as
thrift.

variety of tanks, carrying two men,
one to run it and the other to
handle the gun. There are twenty
of them tout over the ninth fed

aid in floating the Victory bonds.
Some of the tanks carry the

and others are armed with the Mar

Before starting through the Ninth

Junior Red Cross Notes

Quite few of the schools in
Grant county have sent in 1000
memberships in the Junior Red
Cross for the year 1919, but there
are still many to hear from. This
membership is very important and
it is hoped that within a very short
time Grant county will again be a
1000 county. In the Northern
Division for 1918 no county in
Montana gained 1000 membership,
while North Dakota claimed two
1000 counties. and South Dakota
seven. Minnesota the State Of
Division Headquarters, had twenty
two. Are we 70 fall behind in
1919? Not Grant County, South
Dakota!
The supplies are all here for the
Junior Rid Cross Health Crusade.
This Campaign has been changed to
the weeks between April ! and June
l. 1919. Each school in Grant
county should take part in this cam
paign. There are pins for each De-
gree earned by the pupil. It will
take very little Of school time but
will be great satisfaction. to each
individual taking part in the Cru
sade. Teachers write the chairman
of the Chapter School Committee
stating the number of pupils you
have at once so that you may see
the results Of the work before
school closes even if it does close
before June l. These contests
could be conducted beween neigh.
boring schools or evev between
classes or rows in school.
