ECONOMY A CIVIC DUTY

If half the people would save and
deposit in the banks 5000 each there
would be at the end of the veal five
millions of stored capital available.
Two thousand communities at this
rate would store ten billions of
available capital and all this capital
would seek investment at interest.

THE f QUESTION

1t is stllI, obviously, a moot ques-
ton just how far virtue can be forced
upon humanity with a club, and just
how much moral liberty may be
granted the young, the thoughtless,
the gay, and Indifferent, without in
jury to society. The trend today seems
too much toward license, irreverence
and immortality, and for a long time
the cry has been going up all over the
nation that there must be a spiritual
renaissance.-Helena Record Herald.

PATIENCE

The reconstructive energies of
this country today are much stronger
than they were after the Civil war,
and the progress of our recovery would
ne much faster than it was then, and
faster than 1t is now, were it not for
conditions abroad, which are so great
a handicap to our foreign trade. Even
there, however, despite after war con
dltlons much more appalling than here,
considerable Improvement has been
made. Everything is moving in the
direction of normal, and all that is
REQUIRED IS natience and cooperation"

WANTED-A SOLUTION

Overproduction in any real sense
does not exist. What does exist is in
ability to market goods at a profit;
inability to sell back to the men and
women producers of the country the
goods they have produced. Wouldn't
it be a fine thing if the incoming ad-
ministration would set itself to solve
just that one problem:

THERE'S ONLY ONE CIRE

All Things taken into considera-
ton, especially the fact that the price
OF wheat is now above normal. it is
difficult to find a reasonable basis for
the opinion that wheat will reach a
higher price. even though the farmers
movement should be a general success.
Organization on the part of the farm
ers as to marketing conditions will be
helpful, but suuch an organization
must be self-sustaining.

PROGRESS CLUB

Progress Club met May 9th at the
home Of Mrs. Carl VOgel with
twenty members and one guest
present. The club was favored with
music by three Academy boys, who
played on violin, guitar and banjo.
All greatly enjoyed the music given
by the boys.
Mrs. George Hewes, who was a
missionary in India for twenty-one
years and who has been in the
United States for the last five years,
addressed the club. Mrs. Hewes
made her address more interesting
by showing the dresses, fancy work,
basketry and many other things of
the Hindu and MOhammedans and
telling something of their life and
customs. All certainly appreciated
this address and have a more vivid
picture OF India and the work TO
be done there.
The hostesses, Mrs. Vogel and
Mrs. C. N. Shut, then served de-
licious cake and strawberry ice
