INSOLENCE IN DEFEAT

All this fuss the Germans are making over
their victorious army" makes Americans very
tired. From the signing of the armistice, which
itself was certainly prof enough to any rational
human being of Germany's utter defeat, they
have kept up the solemn farce.
1t began with Hindenburgs lying words to
his troops in ordering them out of Belgium and
France. 1t was continued by other generals as
the great retreat proceeded The soldiers knew
better, but stood for the bluff The populace
readily swallowed all the fulsore falsehoods. A
typical uitterance was that of General Won Einem
to the people, of the Rhine provinces, before he
evacuated them to make way for the advancing
Allies:
N"You desired to see the victorious army which
protected the Fatherland for four and half
years against all it's enemies You wished to see
1or yourself whether our strength was broken,
and whether we remained true sons of German
sires. The glorious reception given us, the dis
play Of flags, the greetings extended, are the best

NAVIES.

The thoughts of the American people have
been concerated lately on the naval question:. Ii,
is inevitable, for naval power is apparently the
crucial factor in undertaking to reorganize in
ternationa affairs for permanent peace and
order. IN
Everything revolves around the British navy ~,
and the American navy: Other navles hardly
count in the reckoning. Here are the two fore
most world powers, with the two biggest ma
yies. What are we going to do about them?
= The British navy is today absolute mistress
Of the sea- Self-respect and wise regard for
1t'-n future seem to demand that the United
<,s have navy no less strong than Britain s.
Ths<fact that the relations of the two powers
are today on firmer basis of friendship than
ever, with no cloud on the horizon, does not real
ly change the situation. According to one point
of view, it makes it all the more desirable to
strengthen our own navy.
Admiral Badger, in explaining TO a congress
siona committee the navy boards building pro
gram, took this view. He explained that our
navy ought to be equal to any other in the world
meaning, of course, Great Britains-by the
year 1925 He urged this not in spite Of but
because of, the fact that "navies must be the
principal support of league of nations, and
the United States, from it's wealth, influence and
power, will be called on to contribute large
share of the international police force to render
such league effective
That is certainly a more encouraging rea-
son for building warships than could be found
in any scheme of mere competition with the Brit
ish navy. The American people are doubtless
willing to go ahead and spend their money for
such purpose.
Such program, however, implies that Great
Britain herself shall stop building warships un-
til we catch up with ther, and that the tow pow
ers shall then go into the world d-policing bust
ness as partners on equal terms. If President
Wilson can persuade the British government to
agree to that, it will be happy solution of the
competitive armament problem and happy au-
curry of success for the desired league of ma

This lie is repeated ali over Germany. 1t is

WHAT CONSTITUTES. A LIVE TOWN.

It is the ambition of every town nowadays
to draw in trade from the surrounding coun-
try Growth in retail trade that comes from
the home town alone does not usually satisfy the
ambition of live business center. 10 attain
its ambitions, it must draw in trade from the
surrounding country.
That trade comes easier than it used to. IN
these days of automobiles it can be drawn very
considerable distance. People will pass by the
old-fashioned crossroads store in remote cor
ner, to come into a good live center. And they
will pass by such center, and go consider
able distance further, if they are convinced that
thcy have found a better center
Thus they 60 to the town within driving dis

is by a lot of live advertising in the home news

You never find a newspaper filled with ad-
vertising in q dead town. On the contrary, When
the bulk of the stores advertise well, the town
looks alive.
The Press circulates widely among the peo-
ple living throughout the Valley. 1t reaches
many people who naturally would trade in com
munities still nearer their homes than we are.
But the advertisements printed in our columns
lead many Of them to come here. If all our
merchants would take part in this advertising
campaign, they would not merely advertise their
own business but they would advertise their
home town as live one. Then they would get
their share of those who are drawn in by the
general appearance of enterprise that an adver-
tising town always gives.
