While native born Americans are
20 careless with their money that tho
government has found It necessary TO
institute q thrift Champaign to induce
them to save: foreigners IN this coun-
thy realize the value Of the good old
q. 8. A. dollar to such an extent that
they are going back to the old coun-
try" and taking with them as many
dollar q the customs regulations per.
NIT.
'.Everywhere In the world people
are bidding high for American money
and credit, while we, right at home,
are throwing our money around and
thinking as little Of It al II 1t were
not the soundest money in the world,
with greater buying power than the
money Of any other country" M. E.
Harrison, ninth district War Savings
director, said: 1T is high time
we realized what good money our
American money is. Then more of
us would attend at once to saving It.
More Of us would save this excellent
money for the future by investing 1t
in War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings Certificates"

family within the next two or three
weeks. MIR. Loock is an experienced

farming. We welcome him to our
county.

We don't believe Eaton has one real
booster. Each of-us is so busy look
ing out for orr own selfish end that
we have GO time to work for the gen
eral welfare of the town Eaton Col
Herald.
We have written a good deal on the
above subject and are strongly tempt
ed to affic. our readers with another
spasm at this time. However, we will
pass it up with the remark that just
the above proposition is what ails
more small towns than any other one
thing. Why cannot the businessmen
of small town grasp the idea that
their collective interests are all build
ed on one foundation and join hands
to look after the welfare of that foun
dation.-Platville COB Herald.
If the same energy were expended
b, the average small town business
man, and some who are rot, to boost
ing a project that would benefit both
hmself and his neighbor and the town
at large, that he usually devotes to
knocking" everything that does not
directly place $2 in his pocket for
every h0c or 81 expended by him, and
that without any physical or manual
effort on his part, there would be
some chance for both him and the
town in which he lives to forge to the
front more rapidly. Remember tn.
next time you hold little KNOCKERS

it's not the town, but it's YOU"

and retired. Shortly after, his daugh-

the door, found Charley's suit, over
coat and all in a blaze, together with
several other garments. The fire was
not easily extinguished as the water
mains were shut off at the time. The
cause of the fire was undoubtedly a
pipe in the coat pocket which had not
been properly emptied. Had there
been no one up at the time, in all
probabilities the fire would have

They are Charles Ralph Hardin
and Gertrude Edith (White) Hardin.
They were married at the home of
the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Albert White, Sunday, December 81,
by Rev. NJ d. Reed. The company
was relatives only and it was a CONS
pany in whom feelings were deep
and high. -.dith is the last of the
White girls, and the certainty that
she will help make the new home
as delightful as the old one is, can
not alter the fact that the old home
will lack much without her. But the
joy of the occasion held sway thru
the day. There was a dinner fit for
bridegroom. The house was beau
tifully decorated, and the packages
dropped here and there indicated
permanent and useful proofs of the
good wishes so freely spoken in
words.
The new home is to be in Cabarton
1t is not a French city, for Mr.. Hard
in, after waiting eighteen months in
camp, was discharged without call
to service such as he enlisted for.
