The census this year shows great growth in the population of AshdoWn. We know from the bank statistics and from many other sources, that the county has grown tremendously in wealth The people have more savings deposits, more bonds, and stocks, and more everything that shows great material prosperity. Prices are all high. but most people seem to be able to pay them and have surplus. Is that the only way city should grow? Should it now grow in beauty, in the things that make life worth living. in conveniences for recreation, in soc ia! activities in those things which up
 lift the spirit and especially should it not grow in the promotion of health and the reduction of the death rate? Everywhere there is demand for these better living conditions. People are reaching out for them, blindly in most cases, because they do not know just what to do to get them. They do not realize that they can produce these conditions for themselves, if they will only work together to get them. Any city can be healthful and beautiful and a desirable place to live, if the citizens will pull together and make it so There is no need to make com
 motion, to tear things to pieces, to set one portion of the town against an- other. All we need is little co-op- eration. First we need clean town to make it healthful. Everyone should be willing and want to have clean town, free of flies and mosquitoes Get hoe and rake and start in and clean your lawns, back yard and the alleys. It will make you feel better Don't let your neighbor have a cleaner lawn than yours. Plant few flowers and some grass and ii you have no trees plant few of them. Use a little paint and make the old place look like a home.

SPIRIT OF PURITANlSM
LIVES AS YEARS MOVE
It Was This Spirit That Gave

number, by the publication Of an ar

| on the front page OF the paper. The
doctor is frequent contributor to the
Register, but the fact 1t printed his
article on the first page, double -leaded,
Is a signal honor rarely accorded cor
respondents. The article:
"Puritanism has been the progressive
principle in western civilization. 1t was
at first a religious movement, without
political significance, but 1t has worked
out tremendous political results.
THE English reformers claimed that
God is. sovereign through the throne:
the. separatists said that God is SOW
ereign through the Book, while the
Americans said that God is sovereign
through law. which is transcendent, in
herent in reality, and cannot be
changed by human wish. Americans
declared that no man is good enough
and great enough to exercise sovereign
will over any man, and that the law Of
God, which inheres In the nature OF
man and the universe, is regnant; that
the light of truth is still breaking in
human experience; and that new ex-
perience must be enacted into new
statutes and codified by legislative bod
les elected by the pepole. Americans
are governed not by the will of man,
but by the living principles and spirit
of law.

which enabled our nation to formulate

stance may require, so that II will be

Labor's Code.
Mr.. Gompers replied TO this letter
and asked Mr.. Galhraith II there were
anything In the federation declaration
az lts Philadelphia convention In 1910
which transgressed the legions ideals
The main points In the labor pro-
nouncement were the improvement OF
the standard of life TO uproot igno-
rance and roster education, to instill
character and manhood and an indie
pendent spirit among our people, 10
bring ABOUT recognition OF the In =
terpenoence OF the modern life OF man
and his fellow men, to establish a nor
NAL work day, to take the children
from the factory and workshop and
place them In the school, the home
and the playground, In n word. the
unions of labor, recognizing the duty
OF toll, strive TO educate their mem
beers, TO make their homes more cheer
iul in every way, TO contribute an ear
nest effort toward making life the
better worth living, to avail their
members OF their rights as citizens
and to bear the duties and RESPONSE
hilities and perform the obligations
they owe to our country and their fell
low men"
He spoke OF the pledge the A. r. OF
l., had made during the war to aid,
and the splendid way IN which II had
been carried out. In reply the legion
commander declared that 1T is with n
real sense OF pride in the fundamental
soundness OF our big American insti-
tutions and ms renewed proof thereon
he had read MIR Gompcrs' letter, and
that there is nothing In the fedora
tons declaration to which the legion
can take the slightest exception.
So ends n dispute rising from acts

tions. II is refreshing to see that they
end In complete agreement as to tho
worthiness OF the causes and codes of
