ANOTHER YEAR CLOSES.

With this issue we close another
year Of publishing The Belington Pro
gressive. Eight years have passed in
to making up eight large volumes of
historical facts and figures,
In the beginning, we had no idea
that conditions would be so different
at the end of eight seemingly short
years. Our attempt has been for the
betterment of our country and to that
end we feel that we have succeeded.
Our efforts in helping to erect per-
manent material things as well as to
strengthen character building have not
been vain. Improved Permanent
Roads about us will stand as a mon
ument to civilization. Permanent
School Buildins and Church Buildings
are monuments erected and dedicated
as mark of higher civilization, for
God and man.
In conclusion, we thank all our
friends and patrons for their support
and trust that the few remaining
years and decades will find US, one
and all, healthier and happier, in the
march of progress.

Washington than are needed?" as 6ed
Jack.
well, won't say that, but viii
show you by real figures / have here
the truth about it. In 1915 there
were SO 900 government employees in
the District Of Columbia. Now, sew
enteen months after the armistice,
there are little more than 100000
of them on the government pay roll.
In 1916, in Washington and other
places, there were 10000 people
working and being paid by the gov
eminent. Right now there are about
$4,000. People will say, But it was
necessary to have more to do the
work piled up by the wa. That is
very true, kiddies, but remember the
war is over We are really at peace
and yet the Wilson people who are
running the government keep on
pouring out the peoples money and
SO far as I can see, they don't care
how it is to be paid or when"
do these people who work for
the government all do different
things? ?" asked Ruth.
"No, they do not. There is much
duplication Of work The~administra-
ton hangs on to the powers given it
during the war and if it were not
for the fact that this duplication of
work, and the hundreds of needless
employees being carried GA the pay
rolls, means draining the United
2asa3 te asury alrast dry, il would
lie fanny. The President dc7ea't try
to check this wasting Of money and
neither do any Of those who are sup
posed to advise him. lie cares much
about the 'dawning of q new day. as
he said when talking Of the world
club, than he does of the peoples
dollars. As Senator Wadsworth has
said, "A new day" is coming. In
deed its dawn is already upon us and
it will be a long, long day with little
romance in it. 1t will be pay day.
In other words, children, instead of
the new day President Wilson
dreams tbout while our money is be-
ing thrown away, there will be pay
day when we will have to pay for
the waste for which President Will
sons administration is responsible"
Where will the money come from
to pay for the waste?" asked Jack.
"That is just what am trying to
show you. 1t will come right out of
the pockets of the people of this
country in the form Of taxes. If we
raise 100000 this year thru
THE natural forms of revenue we will
do well and that will not pay the
debts we are asked to assume. 1t
looks like we would have deficit
this year of $3,000,00O00O and if we
don't stop this awful waste we will
have another one next year"
u hope we can cut down the waste
50 that we won't have what you call
ed deficit Uncle Ted" said Jack
1--WE must Jack. People can only
stand 50 much taxing. You must al
ways remember this. When people
are taxed heavily, when it means a
real hardship, then the people are
not contented. And when the people
Of the country are not contented the
country cannot grow and prosper"
