Utilities a Community Asset.

Public utilities enter 1920 with a more hopeful outlook. The general so- cialistic crusade for public ownership has exhausted itself and the idea of ownership by employees and custom CTS is growing.
 Profits under this system, whether large or small, are shared by the two elements which have the best rights to share them, the workers and the patrons.
 The broader this ownership becomes the safer will the companies be from fanat1cal and unjust political opposi- tion and legislative attack.
 There is an educational influence also in bringing thousands of families into business connections of this na- ture. Ownership even in a small way will give many individuals new in terest and new viewpoint.
 This plan brings fresh capital and valuable moral support to legitimate enterprises, and affords safe invest ment opportunity to numerous indi- viduals who are taught to save and employ their surplus funds.
 Every individual who owns property or conducts business or needs employ ment has financial interest in the public utility industry.
 About $15,000, 900 capital, rep resenting savings of the people of the country, are invested in public utili- ties.
 The securities representing these savings are held by thousands of in vestors, large and small, and by near ly every bank and financial institu- tion of the country, and in endowment funds of churches, colleges, schools, hospitals, and in other trust funds.
 The integrity of these investments is of direct or indirect consequence to every citizen; and the maintenance of the service and the expansion of the

Why Run Such Risks?

Insurance engineers recently visit ed prosperous manufacturing town of 2000 inhabitants in Oregon and from the fire risk standpoint this is what they found:
 Insufficient water pressure, lack of hydrants near school buildings, insuf- ficient fire equipment, absence of fire prevention regulations, AT places where wiring was defective, 2S places where walls and floors were unpro- tected from stove heat, IA places where gasoline was improperly kept, 15 places without metal cans for oily waste and rags, 13 places with de- fective stoves, pipes and fiues, 8 places where ashes were found in wooden re- ceptacles, Al places where chimneys were on brackets and 38 places with accumulation of rubbish and trash.

My friend, you have heard of the town of Yawn,
 On the banks of the river Slow, Where blossoms the Waitawhile flow

 And the soft Goeasy grows? It lies in the valley of Whatstheuse, In the province of Letterslide; That tired feeling is native there; Where the Putitoffs abide.

TO CONSIDER PENNY POSTAGE

WASHINGTON.-One of the ques- tions which will be taken up for hear ings at an early date by the house committee on post offices is the Mad den bill for one-cent postage. The idea of the bill is one-cent postage in cities and on rural routes leading therefrom. The measure has much support and also certain opposition.

Unsold stocks of copper in this country are placed by one of the largest interests in the business at somewhere between 100000, ,000 and 450,000,000 pounds. To quote his words:
 "We are on our way toward a very much better situation. l have a very confident belief we have seen the bot tom, and that 1920 is going to be a good copper year.
 within reasonable limits, while home consumption today is greater than ever before in our history, 10000 900 pounds and 150,000,00 pounds per month.
 q would not go so far as to say that we are entirely out of the woods; we still may have a few troubles, but we are encouraged by the fact that we are rapidly turning into money, or will when deliveries on recent sales have been made, a large part of the copper that we have been carrying.
 "The foreign demand is increasing very noticeably."
 If labor listens to reason instead of radicalism, there is bright future ahead for the western metal industry.
 Some Sugar Facts.
 The world sugar shortage is esti- mated at 2h million tons.
 European sugar bins are empty and will take three years to fill them.
 This was due mainly to the wreck ing of the European sugar beet in- dustry.
 It is time to substitute information for imagination and transformation. National consumption of confection- cry is increasing.
 We use as much sugar for gum as we formerly used for candy.
 Candy has become national neces- sity.
 Increased beet sugar production must be encouraged.
