1t is probably useless to mention
the matter as it is generally known
that Kendrick needs a dozen or
more new houses. This fall there
will be number of families who
will be forced to go to some other
town to send their children to
school, simply because they cannot
find place in which to live. The
town is gradually increasing in
population but new houses are not
being built fast enough to accomo-
date the added numbers. Building
material is high but it is not likely
that 1T can be purchased for much
less in the future as it is gradually
going up even now. Houses rent at
a good figure here and will pay a
good rate of interest on the invest
.ment. If the town is going to
grow more houses will have to be
added because every house in town
is now occupied.

The business men of Kendrlck did
not sign up for chautauqua for
next year for various reasons. 1t
is question whether a town and
the people ir the surrounding
country derive enough benefit from
the chautauqua programs to make
it worth the expense. Chautauqua
week here this season cost the COM
munity in neighborhood of $1,000.
Most of the talent was considered
rather inferior and aside from parts
of several programs, it was little
better than could be produced local
ly. The chautauqua company comes
to a town with all expenses guaran-
teed and a very good chance to make
nice profit above expenses. They
guarantee nothing except that they
will put on a program of some sort.
The quality of the entertainments
to be given carries no guarantee
whatever-a town takes just what it
gets and is supposed to be satisfied.
Most of the business men have stat
ed emphatically that they would
not sign up for another chautauqua,
so the probabilities are there will
be no chautauqua next summer.
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1919-06-27

The man who is waiting to buy
until prices decline is an obstruc-
zionist. The Government is urging
that everyone buy. The slogan is
"buy now but buy wisely" If you
buy then the merchant has to buy,
because you deplete his stock and
the manufacturer has to buy to ill
the new orders from the merchant.
This, in turn, will eventually mean
the employment of more labor and
satisfactory condition all round.
The man who is so morbidly afraid
of parting with a little of his mon
ey for fear that hard times will
overtake him, is one of class who
is doing more injury to his bank
account than it he used more liberal
methods and did his share to keep
money matters in a healthy con-
dition, by spending some of his
surplus wisely.
