The Smith family form considerable
proportion of the white population of
the world. 1t has been estimated that
there are seven million male Smiths,
and allowing the female members of
the family to be equally numerous, this
gives a total of fourteen million Smiths,
number equal to the combined popu-
lation of Canada, Australia and New
Zealand.

WHY ADVERTISED
STORES SUCCEED

Because the advertised store speake
with strong confidence of the merits
of its proposition.
When a store fails to advertise, it
must be for one of three son
First, because the proprietor thinks
the public will not see his notice;
second, because the proprietor thinks
they will not believe it if they do
see it; or third, because the proprie-
tor feels that he has no goods of sucn
exceptional value that he can per-
suade the public to come in and look
at them.
The first reason is valid only il
a merchant is considering some paper
of small circulation. The second anG
third reasons indicate lack of con.
fidence on the part of the store in its
goods.
No one would have the courage t
put money into advertising unless
goods had demonstrated their value il
practical experience. The public feels
in buying advertised goods, that it ii
getting something that has mad
good.

Every mail brings not only column
after column, but page after page OF
matter to which we are requested to
give publicity. To even outline the
leading points of the more important
is a physical impossibility in a me
mar country newspaper.
There is the income tax business.
In regard to this, if you don't fully
understand it you'd better consult
some n who does, and avoid a LOT
of trouble for yourself.
The school children of the state are
asked to invest 100000 in thrift
stamps. This is good work and the
children should be encouraged to
save their nickles and invest.
A last effort is being made to COM
plete the record, for historical pur-
poses, of the American boys who
participated in the war. This is very
important and every man whose
record has not been given in should
attend to this without delay.

more freight, must add it ON to the
price of the merchandise, which the
railroad worker, and everybody else,
has to buy. There is nothing to this
theory whatever, and it is only max
ing the problems worse.
Going around in a circle does not
get anybody anywhere. There are
certain laws of Nature and of supply
and demand that are going to be ulti-
mate basis, after all is said and done.
Water is going to seek it's level and
nothing in the world can stop it. We
would as leave get 81 a day and have
the cost of living SO, and save 81, as
to get $40 a day, with the cost of liv-
ing $40, and still save only that same
81. What's the difference? The net
result is the same. Nobody can lift
himself over the fence by his own
bootstraps. And the wheel keeps 60
ing around.
1t all reminds us of a pup we once
owned. His tail had been cut off down
to an inch of his body. He would
chase a flea from one end of him to
the other, and the flea would finally
take refuge on the tip of the stub
tail.
Then the pup would start after
that tail, jumping round and round in
a circle, while all the time the tail
made the same identical circular
speed that the mouth and teeth did.
And all the time the flea kept biting
like blazes on the tail.

THE ELKS

lii IIhO
THE faults of our brothers We
write upon the sands, their virtues
in tablets of love and memory"
There never was a more beautiful
sentiment expressed by mankind thar
is contained in that little motto thai
guides the highways and byways
pursued by he who has been honored
with the sign of the b. p. o. L. The
attitude of the average man unto his
brother is not the attitude adopted by
the Elks, witness the following dia-
logue heard upon the streets of Elko
recently, when the procession of cleo
ted members of the B. p. o. Z. passed
up the street on it's way to initiation,
according to the Elko Independent:
What's this?"
"Elk's parade; these fellows are go
ing to be initiated into the Elks."
How do you get into the Elks, by
physical examination or what?"
mo, you are admitted upon your
character. Your character is pretty
well investigated"
Hu.nph! They didn't investigate
hat fellow much, 1 guess; and there's
another fellow they couldn't have run
back very far On. Yes, and there's
another one that's done a few things
that he was proud of and his mother
wasn't. Yeah. Fine bunch. Looks
like they oughta all be walkin' lock-
step to me-"
That conversation actually occurred.
We have it from a participant.
But it does not make a dent in an
Elk, protected by that little motto
that heads this article. When an Elk
becomes a member of that great order
his heart goes with his hand, not
with his index finger. No matter
what his brother has done in the past,
so long as he cleaves to the line of
right in the present he is a man,
equal to any other man, and deserv-
ing of the brotherly love that is
part of every just mans life. But
was that the standard of this man
who spoke SO d~isparagingly of that
honored line? The answer needs nc
speaking.
Those sixty-four men who became
members of the Benevolent and Pro-
tective Order of Elks have taken un-
to themselves something to live for.
Doing something for their fellow men.
practicing the dictates of manliness
and justice, the future holds for them
the sweetness of a sentiment gently
expressed and rigidly adhered to.
But he who spoke so harshly against
that same fellow man, is not to be
commended by any person, and we
doubt whether he finds commentator
within his own heart and mind. What
bitterness must always be present in
such a heart, a heart that expresses
naught but bitterness and adverse
criticism! And what a contrast, this
man who writes his brothers faults
in the sands and carves his virtues in
the tablets of love and memory.
