oRDwAY WINS

While it has been said that 1t was
impossible for Ordway to win over
Sugar City In ball game on account
of hoo doo." 1t seems as though
the new local organization doesn't
know anything about the ancient
"hoo-doo" Sugar City has had on
Ordway.
While Sugar City has twice forced
the local club to go into extra innings
Ordway has come OFF the victors In
both contests.
The game last Sunday, was filed
with errors and would not be counted
as a well played game but for the
fact that each team was scoring
about even, both clubs being in the
lead at different times was what real
ly made the game very Interesting

Davis pitched fine game but was

FORCED TO
BUY AT HOME

In the last two issues we
have taken up the actual
cost to you of the out-of-
town-purchases, also the
throwing out of employment
of two-thirds of the popu-
lation of the towns and
cities of the country.
Now we wish to take up
another phase of this ques-
tion that you had never
dreamed of-not being in
business and therefore not
having studied it closely
it 81 the balancing up of
your purchasing act at the
end of the year.
We claim that every dollar
a man spends out of town
costs him practically two.
1t comes about in this way.
For an illustration let US
take ten men who use a GER
tain article every year. Let
two of those men send out
of town for their article
the rest are loyal to their
merchant and buy at home.
We will say there are five
merchants in the town who
handle that article which is
a staple article. Each of
these merchants figure that
there will be ten of them
sold, and of course he fig
ures he will get his share
of the business. SO he or
ders four of these. so that
there will be twenty of these
articles in town and only
eight of them sold so the
merchant has invested twice
as much money, twice as
much time, twice as much
insurance, twice as much
help. twice as much rent
in fact. he has doubled his
expense to be able to ac-
commodate you. But you
have double-crossed him
and you can see the results
to him, but you say 81
should worry" But wait
a minute-who is to pay
this bill? Either this mer-
chant or some other has got
to make enough profit to
pay expenses, and the only
way for him to get the profit
is to sell this article, or
some other. and while there
was only two of these ten
men who bought this article
out of town, there was two
more of them bought some
other article, and so on, but
out of ten articles each one
buys during the year he will
either be compelled to. or
of his own free will buy
nine articles at home. So
you see by following close
The Ordway new era., 1919-05-23

ly the figures and state
ments-and we can show
you that they are very con-
servative- that every ar
ticle these men buy must
have added to its cost to
you just twice the expense
that should be II you had
played fair with your home
merchant. Now lets take a
dollar article and carry 1t
thru this process and see
where we land. One dollar
you send away, nine dollars
you spend at home. We will
concede that you saved
twenty-five cents on this
dollar but on the other nine
you lost ten cents or the
added expense. Nine times
ten is ninety. and the differ
ence between the two is
sixty-five cents. So instead
of you saving anything you
lose sixty-five cents.
Oh no, if the home mer-
chant charges you a little
more than you think you
can get the article for in
some other town, remember
that you have no one to
blame but yourself.
Tell me this. How many
merchants in the retail busi-
ness. either in this town or
any other, have you known
to get rich?
Did you ever know of a
merchant to buy a stock of
goods and pay for 1t out of
one years profit? l have
known farmers to buy a
farm and pay for it out of
one years crop. and he
wasn't considered a hold up
either. The business men
of this country are not such
terrible fellows = / don't
think. Now really do you
think they are?

the rest of the club to .'go some
to keep up.
The team as whole have showed
some real batting ability. they having
gathered total of 16 hits, few
of which were for extra bases.
Sugar City tied the score in the
first of the ninth and Ordway put
the game on ice In the last half of
the eleventh inning when with two
men on. local player drove one
thru the left field fence for 3 sacks.
Mulvaney and Shorten umpired a
nice game and was met with very
little criticism by players or fans.

Cut This Out

Many medical men say we VIII prob
ably have another epidemic this fall,
Let us all hope and pray we will not.
But at the same time let us be well
prepared.
The flu as 1t is called. usually starts
with cold and tightness in the chest.
If you ever suspect there is a
chance that you may be getting in
huenza take good dose of laxative
tea such as DR.. Carriers X & Tea
or Celery King and send for your ply
stefan While you are waiting for the
doctor rub Begy's Mustarine on throat
and chest.
Rub it on freely and never mind if
it does feel good and hot, it cannot
blister even the tenderest skin.
But don't stop at throat and chest,
get some one to rub this enemy of in
flammation over your entire back and
especially between the shoulder blades
This is one of the most sensible
precautions you can take against pueu-
monia, which often quickly follows the
flu and is just what the doctor tries
hard to sidetrack.
GU can get Begy's Mustartine for 80
and Go cents in yellow boxes all ready
for use at any drug store.
Remember it is made of real yellow
mustard Use it for sore throat, coughs
chest colds, pleurisy. bronchitis, lum-
bago and all aches and pains.

ROOSEVELT OBJECTED
TO MOTTO ON COINS
Great American Believed "ln God We
Trust" Was Cheapened on
Money


New York, Dec. "A new and in
teresting explanation OF Colonel Roose
velt's objection to the use OF the
phase I'm God We Trust on United
States coins. is afforded In aIf Article
in the December Scribner's by Joseph
Bucklin Bishop. the former Presi-
dents b!ographer
A letter written by Mr. Roosevelt
on Nov. II, 1907. to a Clergyman who
had differed with him about placing
the motto on the COINS read
When tho question Of the new
coinage came up we looked into the
law and found there was no warrant
therein for putting In God We Trust
on the coins. AS the custom, altho
without legal warrant, had grown up,
however, | might have felt at liberty
to keep the inscription had | approved
of its being on the coinage. But as
did not approve of it, did not direct
that it should again be put on. OF
course the matter of the law is abso-
lutely in the hands of Congress, and
any direction of Congress in the mat
ter will be Immediately obeyed AT
present as have said there is no
warrant in law for the Inscription.
MY own feeling in the matter is
due to my very firm conviction that to
put such a motto on coins or to use
it in any kindred manner, not only
does no good but does positive harm,
and is in effect irreverence which
comes dangerously close to sacriege.
"A beautiful and solemn sentence
such as the one in question shond be
treated and uttered only witll that
fine reverence which necessarily inn
plies a certain eXaltation of spirit
Any use which tends to cheaper it,
and above all, any use which tends
to secure its being treated in a spirit
of levity, is from every standpoint
profoundly to he regretted.
1T is motto which il is indeed
well to have inscribed on our great
national monuments, in our temples
of justice, in our legislative halls. and
in buildings. sueb.as those ,<sk. Nest
point and Annapolis in short, wher-
ever ii will tend to arouse and inspire
a lofty emotion in those who look
thereon. But it seems to me eminent
ly unwise to cheaper such motto by
use on coins, just as it would be to
cheaper it by use on postage stamps,
or in advertisements"
Among the 10000 letters written
by Colonel Roosevelt during his pub
lie career, Mr. Bishop said he found
a number from Rudyard Kipling. writ
ten in that famous authors character
istic way, that is, in the tiniest chiro-
graphy.
In a letter written in 1903 the Col
onel said Great Heart is my fav-
orite character in allegory, Just as Pill
grim's Progress is to my mind one Of
the greatest books that was ever writ
ten and / think that Abraham Lincoln
is the ideal 'Great-Heart' of public
life" He returned to this idea about
Lincoln from time to time, a fact
which explains the origin of Kipling's
memorial poem entitled Great
Heart" written when the Colonel
died.
Colonel Roosevelts admiration for
the Great Emancipator was also
shown in letter which he wrote on
March 8, 1905, a few days after his
inauguration, to Sir George Treyel-
yam, the English historian and nep-
hew of Macauly in which the Colonel
