Editorial

A postage stamp is a wonder
full animal. 1t has every
thing else gasping for breath
when 1t comes to tenacity.
Tt sticks to it's job until fin-
ished, no difference how
hard the way.
Recently we held in our hand
an envelope which stamp
had carried all over America
and half of Europe In an
effort to find the man whose
name was on the face of the
letter.
And when it couldn't find him
it brought the letter back to
us with the explanation that
he had been discharged
from the service" and his
present address unknown
and unknowable.
Can't you imagine the trials
and troubles that 1ittIe pur-
pie stamp had in trying to
do it's duty? Yet it never
gave up.
There are few human post
age stamps. but not nearly
enough. If there were more
who's Who" would be many
times as big as it now is.

BARUCH is ON STRIKE

Washington, Oct, 27-Bernari NJ.
Baruch has gone on a strike against
the high cost of clothing and, as his
way of doing his bit, proposes to
make his present wardrobe last a
while longer. Notice from his boot
maker that $45 would be the price
of his winter footgcar was the last
straw.

know that the shoemaker was charg-
ing $45 for new shoes and the tailor
$l60 for business suit. told him
that I would have to try and struggle
through with what | have.
ut is not a question Of the $45 or
the $lG0 with me. 1t is a question of
reducing the cost Of things. Prices
are now high because Of under-pro-
duction there are not enough shoes

PREDICTS HIGHER PRICE
PRICE FOR COTTON

Mr.. j. 5. WanGamakrr, President
Of the American Cotton Association.
Is optimistic, in fact, enthusiastic
aS to good price for cotton, since
ne attended the World cotton Con-
Rrcss in New Orleans. IN his opinion
cotton will soon bring forty cents
and that in the early part Of I92O
cotton will sell for fifty cents. The
demand for cotton viii be greater
than the supply and WITH the markets
open to cotton buyers, Mr. Wanna
makers prediction docs not appcnr
unreasonable.
There were "A good many British
Cotton men at tn" meeting Of the
Association in New Orleans and they
admitted that cotton would go to a
nigh lcval and that never AGAIN would
IT sell as cheap as it has sold this
year; will never be as low as twenty
cents.
Mr.. Wannamakcr stated that he
has received reports from all over the
cotton belt, indicating that the far
mers are better organized and better
to hold their cotton for
higher pice.

THE STRIKERS AND
THEIR LEADERS

1t is unfortunate for the laborinp
men who are members Of the labor
union that they have been saddled
with number Of radical leaders who
are foreigners and anarchists. The
record of the man Foster, strike
promoter and leader, was shown up
in Congress. Articles that he had
published in his paper showed Foster
to be opposed to government and
favorable to the Soviet. With Foster
were associated gang of agitators,
foreigners who were opposed to all
forms of government One of the
workers in the steel plant wrote
for a Pittsburg paper in which he
said of Foster and his associates:
These men have not fooled the
English-speaking mill workers of
this valley, who are ready now to re-
turn to work, and demand only from
the authorities protection from pick
cts and rowdicS to and from work,
and we'll soon show Mr.. Foster
what we think Of the strike move
ment that he or any other Red con-
trolls.
General Wood, who has been in
command Of the military forces at
Gary, says that nearly all the strik-
ers at Gary are aliens, few Of them
can speak English.

MARKET REPORT
HOME STORE SERVICE

Not merely do the stores of a town
like Denison assemble the products of
the wide world at your very doors, but
they save the public an enormous
amount of time.
To get these goods from all over
the earth it would formerly have been
necessary to visit the nearest large
city. You would have to take part
or the whole of a day and visit some
great emporium. There millions of
money are invested and the complex
system is operated on the high. scale
of expense that burdens metropolitan
trade. The cost of the thing to you
is not merely what you pay for the
article. It is your car fare, the din
ner in the city and most all, the time.
The home store lays down the ar
ticle from Egypt or Australia or In
dia on the counter at the price the
same thing will cost in the great CITY,
And even if you paid lot more for it,
you could afford to. For you have
bought it without loss of your valu-
able time, without any incidental ex-
pense whatever.

MADE THE WORD MEAN MUCH
All the English Pretty Bulgarian I'm.
derstood was "London," but She
Gave 1t Decided Expression.

It IS curious that the name London
is more generally known. the world
over than the name England IS. In
commercial circles "LOndOn" stands
for most articles of English manufac-
ture. In all the East it represents ma
ton. The author Of "Under the Red
Crescent" who was a surgeon Of the
Turkish army in 1877, found that in
the near East, no farther away than
Bulgaria, London" served to identify
him. 1t did even more than that
in a conversational way, as he tells us
In his book.
My first landlord-who was land
lord in name only, for Of course I
never paid him any rent-was a Bull
garian, he says, and his daughter was
one of the few pretty women that l
ever saw in Bulgaria. Conversation
with her, however, was restricted by
our ignorance of each others Ian
guage, for 1 knew scarcely any Bull
garian, and the only word of English
that she could say was London
Whenever I saw that girl she would
show her white teeth with a charming
smile, flash her big, black eyes, and
with beautiful irrelevance calculate:
"London!"
Whether she knew what London
meant I cannot say, but her limited
vocabulary expressed more in its way
than the gushing phrases Of many more
brilliant takers.
When she said London" with
bright air of welcome and a frank
smile as I came home at night tired
out with my days work, knew that
she meant "Good evening, doctor! l
hope you haven't had very hard day
today; and see, here is your toast
and coffee ready"
When she uttered the word with
backward turn of the head and with
pretty glance as she passed out OF
the door, it was very evident that she
was really saying: "Good night now,
doctor! Pleasant dreams to you, ana
I hope a Russian shell won't find you
in the morning."-YOuth's Compan-
ion.
