IF you WERE THE Boss

If you applied to yourself for job,
would you get it? Think it over.
Just be the boss for few minutes;
then check up your record for the
last month as an employee.
Remember, now, it's your money
meeting the payroll.
Have you as an employee filled your
hours with productive, conscientious
labor?. Or have you been too busy
watching the boss?
Have you produced enough in that
month to make you a profitable in
vestment?
Have you put your shoulder to the
wheel, forgotten petty differences and
difficulties? Or have you put sand
in your bearings?
Have you asked questions and i'm
proved? Or have you been too wise
to learn?'
Have you analyZed what you are
doing and why? Or used instinct in
stead of reason and got an indiffer-
ent and methodless result?
Have you allowed your mind to be-
come poisoned with anger, worry, or
envy. and Ky so doing contaminated
and reduced the efficiency of others
Have you gone through the month,
vision of pay day the oasis in your
desert of work? And have you let
this vision shut out from view all
else in the days work that would
build you to size where you would
give yourself job?
Or have you been on the job every
minute with a breadth of vision that
has made the desert of work an oasis
of opportunity.
Check up. Be truthful WOULD
YOU GIVE YOURSELF A JOB?

Canadian COINAGE

A new silver coinage of Canada is
in force. The Canada Gazette gives
official notice that since January /
the Canadian mints will coin silver
coins of the same size and weight and
same face value as heretofore, but
containing only 800 parts silver per
thousand in the alloy, versus 925-
1O00ths fine as heretofore, the old
British standard. The old Canadian
silver dollar contained 333 grains
pure silver and the fractional coins
in proportion. The new will contain
288 grains pure silver. One thousand
ounces pure silver will enter into ST.
10000 face value new money versus
$1,4440.000 heretofore. This estab-
ished $1.7O an ounce as the "par" be-
tween coin and bullion value of Cana
dian money versus $1.44 heretofore.

RAY SCOUTS
PLAN HIKES
into HILLS

Members of Boy Scout Troop No. l.,
Ray, are planning a busy summer,
according to a forecast Of activities
prepared by one of the members for
the Copper Camp. Encouraged by
the outcome of the last overnight hike
into the mountains, the scouts are
planning a two-weeks' trip, which,
from all indications will be one of
the greatest excursions in which the
Ray scouts have ever participated.
Elmo Womack has passed his track
ing test after three trials, and after
passing one or two more tests will
be qualified as entitled to wear a
second class badge
One of the main tops of conversa-
ton among local scouts these days
is the menu served on their camping
trips. The scouts aver there is moth
ing to compare with the biscuits and
stew they have to eat. If ye tired
business man, coaXing his appetite
during the heated term would be food
wise, let him trail with US, say the
scouts, and he will become a new
man. Good old camp-style mulligan,
bread with cocoa or coffee, and other
good things, are promised by the
scouts to those who join them in their
life in the great utof-doors.

THE GOVERNMENT BUG

A wide observer says: did you no.

men of this country left Washington
when the war was over? / figured
that several men in Washington were
giving their services to the govern
ment at 81 per annum, while their ag-
gregate earning power was $35,000,000
per annum. | would like to know
particularly why Rosenwald dropped
his government job in Washington as
quickly as possible and climbed out
with government service.i|
Another able business rnan-among
the ablest in this country-tells his
friends: II would like the scientists
to name the bug or microbe that gets
into man who works for the govern
ment. During the war I found myself
under government salary and direc-
ton. / found that there was no re-
sponsibility over me, and that l was
working for nobody You talk about
the government Of the United States,
but who and where is it? Let any
man try to find the government of
this country.
Does the government recognize ef-
fciency or inefficiency? Does it dis
charge for laziness Or promote for
good WOrk2 found mVSo1f near the
danger point. The government bug
was getting under my skin and I

Dishevelled and weary, the stout
suburdanite sank gasping on a seat
in the rail way station, and glared at
the rear end of the train he had just
missed. To him came the fussy sta
tion-master.
Were you trying to catch that
train, sir?' he asked, pompously.
The painting would-be passenger,
eyed him balefully for a second be-
fore he hissed in reply:
ooh, no! merely wished to chase

The old vault in the recorders Of
flee is Icing torn out and room
made for the two abstract companies.
The abstract business and recorders
work has increased so much in the
past year that it was necessary to
add this additional room. There has
been approximately 60 per cent more
work in the recorders office for the
first four months of 1920 than in 1919.

WALL STREET SERMONS
(Ry Henry w. Jacobsl
Chicago, March, 1920.


When it comes to good, hard
straight thinking, and fearless direct.
positive action, the man of the country
and the small town has always taken
the lead
His ability to see clearly and to
analyze comprehensively the great
social, political, and economic issues,
is due in part to his close association
with uncounterfeited nature; in part
to the comparative isolation of his
life, which leaves him free to reach
conclusions and form opinions with
out undue Influence, and further to
the fact that his attention is less oc-
cupied with the social diversions.
which form so great a factor in the
life of the city man, and that he has
therefore, more time and inclination
to study and acquire an unbiased view
of the great abstract principles.
Where Kansas Led
Kansas was most active in the slav-
cry issue. Woman suffrage, prohibi-
tion, and other great political move
ments had their beginning in Kansas
enthusiasm and judgment
A generation ago, the common
wealth of Kansas, in spite of the
calumny and ridicule heaped upon her
by a large part of the remainder of
the country, started the fight against
"blue sky methods of financing and
against the use of the power Of ac-
cumulated wealth in politics.
Again, in the present crisis, when
labor, unduly .exhilarated by a feel
ing of power engendered by it's sue
cess in coercing national legislative
and executive authority, proposes to
rule the land, Kansas takes the lead
in pointing out the futility of minori-
ties, no matter how well organized,
attempting to enforce their will to
the prejudice of the rights and inter
ests of the majority.
Action In The Coal Strike
While the federal government tenn.
porized, and finally surrendered to
the coal miners, Kansas showed the
world that no set OF men are indis-
pensable to it's welfare, and that the
pursuit of selfish interests by the few
need not be permitted to inflict suf-
fering upon the many.
But the coal strike was only the
incident which crystalized the Kansas
spirit. Just recently, Kansas passed
an act creating an industrial court,
with powers sufficient to prevent in
the future the repetition of such
farcial tragedy.
A Desirable Radical
The Kansas farmer is a radical in
his love of freedom and equity, and
what is more important, he has a
backbone of iron untinged by the
slightest shade of yellow. He is just
the species of radical that the world
reeds in it's present difficulties.
Will Other States Follow?
Where Kansas leads, it is to be
hoped that other states will follow, and
speedily, so that the industrial tangle
may be Strengthened out before it has
gone so far that a great business
disaster is inevitable. There is moth
ing to he hoped for along constructive
lines from the present federal admin
istration, so that if the states do not
| take action, more than year must
pass before any measure can be taken
to avert the imminent industrial
calamity.

OF the local representative of the
Copper Camp when and where John

rounds. He was world champion for
ten years. He lost to Corbett in 1892,
