FINDING HAPPINESS IN WORK
Matter Which Is Largely Dependent
on Attitude One Assumes Toward
Necessary Labor.

Work is Gods greatest blessing to
man. Until you have learned to look
upon your work, not as curse, not as
drudgery, not as a treadmill which
you are compelled to turn laboriously
every day, you cannot be really happy,
you are missing the best that is in life.
remarks Forbes Magazine.
No honest work need be drudgery,
whether it be sweeping streets, max
ing collars or painting famous pic
lures.
Art is nothing but doing thing in
the best way it can be done.
Each one of us can be an artist at
his or her work. All we need do is put
our whole heart, our whole enthusi-
asm, our whole souls, our wh0le'talent
into doing. it with the greatest care.
the greatest skill and the greatest eff
cheney we can command.
Until we do this we can be neither
successful nor cQntented, for Provi-
dence has ordained that, in order to be
happy, we must do the best and the
most we are capable of.
Loafers, whether rich or poor, do
not know true happiness, do not know
the sense of satisfaction which comes
from work well done and done with a
will.
Whether we find pleasure in our
work or whether we find it bore de-
ponds entirely upon our mental atti-
tude toward it, not upon the task itself.

Deafnesscannot he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus.
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the infsmation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.

any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)

TRADE CONDITIONS,
NEW YORK, September 25.-D

NEW YORK, September 25.-Dun's
review. Of trade says:
With more general recognition of
the fact that commercial revival waits
mainly on lower prices. the way is
being gradually shaped for subse-
Quent improvement in conditions
Months Of curtailed demand have
weakened the position of many SELL
ers and downward revisionS of prices.
If belated in certain quarters. are now
of frequent occurrence. This phase
IS again illustrated by Dun's list of
wholesale quotations, which, this
week. shows. for the nineteenth con-
secutive week, a preponderance Of re-
cessions.
THE reluctance of some interests
to operate on a closer margin of
profit. after the abnormal gains of
the late boom period, still tends to
delay seasonal development of busi-
ness in various lines; but the effects
of banking restrictions and consum-
ers' waiting attitude are forcing the
inevitable readjustment, and signs of
renewed activity are beginning to ap-
pear in some channels where the
price yielding has been substantial
while potential requirements are
large. however. purchasing only to
satisfy immediate wants is policy
adhered to by most merchants and is
one which suggests a lack Of appre-
hension of shortage of supplies to
follow. Weekly bank clearings

LIBERTY BONDS MAKE
ADDITIONAL ADVANCES

NEW YORK, September 25 (Spe-
cial) The advance in libertys again
overshadowed trading in today's bond
market The first ANS were UP
xp over a point. the third ANS sold
up close to 81, at which figure they
were up over a half point from the
high of yesterday.
1t was not so much the volume of
buying that was significant as it was
the absence of that selling pressure
which hung consistently over the
market for the eight months of the
year. The victory notes and the 31ss
of the first loan were not affected be-
cause being better placed they did
not have as much room for the up
ward readjustment as did the other
issues;
The great rise in the libertys had
no effect that was noticeable in other
directions. There was little change
in the rest of the government list, the
Belgian 712s at SO were the same as
Kingdom 51as of 1922. at 95h. The
French loan was unchanged at 101 y
Railway Issues Bought.
Railway bonds kept their note of
buoyapcy, but there were few changes
of consequence, except in some of the
highly speculative issues. The Chi
cago and eastern Illinois 4s. which
have been under accumulation for
some time. sold above 81, at which
figure they were up 16 points within
little more than a month. Delaware
and Hudson refunding As, which sold
yesterday at 7Sh, rose on the pur-
chase of a block of ten bonds to 10.
Chesapeake and Ohio convertible SIS
were strong around S61a. Missouri
Kansas and Texas refundings sold at
so. where they were up over half
point.

COMMENT ON THE FORD
SLASH IN MOTOR COST

From Boston News Bureau.
The notable event in the industrial
and financial world is Mr.. Ford
slash in his motor prices:
Tho inquiry that naturally arises IS:
Has M. Ford been "pren tie; 81 t ma
from s525 to $3.50, with no reduction
In wages or steel?
The evidence would seem to De clear
that Mr.. Ford, having reached an out
put of above 100000 cars a month.
has determined to set his cars going
without regard to cost. Indeed, 1t
may have been found cheaper for Mr.:
Ford to move his entire output at cut
prices than to manufacture and store
or to reduce his output.
American Wooden Company. President
Wood believes that low-priced goods
can be made only by running full
forces.
Before Mr.. Ford cut his prices he
told his friends that he was consid-
ering a shutdown unless he had more
new orders.
With no reduction in labor or steel.
this average cut Of Is per cent means
that Mr.. Ford has for the time being
thrown profits to the wind and. either
tain his large outfit, has sold labor,
rubber and steel short. and can re-
cover q part Of his profits only by a
decline in these commodities.
While Mr.. Ford was leader in ad-
vancing labor prices, he has never
given the extreme war advance, and
he cannot cut his labor prices to any
great extent at the present time In
deed, he says he contemplates no Ia
Dor cut.
It must be. therefore. that Mr.. Ford
Is banking for the return of his profits
upon q reduction in steel prices or the
labor Of the people who furnish him
many Of his parts.
The solution Of the Ford problem,
therefore, becomes the solution of
the present industrial labor and finan-
cfal problems

SWIFT GRAIN FALL
IS RARELY EQUALED

CHICAGO. September 25.-Swiftness
rarely equaled has shown itself this
week in the descent of prices for
grain and provisions. Likelihood OF a
huge yield of corn safe from frost led
the way. and extensive slashing of
merchandise values was also largely
responsible Compared with a week
ago, wheat this morning was down

~ to 8 y. and provisions, 82a160
All commodities dealt in on the
board OF trade except wheat began to
fall in price when the prospects
seemed clear that chances of calamity
frost damage to corn had nearly van
ished. Subsequently. big receipts Of
wheat at Winnipeg gave a severe
setback to wheat values, but the
effect was quickly Offset through i'm
mense export buying of wheat Price
cutting on automobiles and cotton and
other articles failed later to disturb
bulls in wheat, until for the first
time since 1917, corn tumbled in value
to less than 81 bushel on exchange
here. Then agitation against high
cost OF food counted hard to shake
the confidence Of holders Of wheat,
and so, too, did European selling Of
wheat here and shrfnkage in demand
for flour.
Excited shorts in corn ran up the
price of September delivery about IA
cents bushel one day, but fear Of
squeeze was quickly ended by large
receipts.

has without eventually affecting the
commodity market as well. The la

labor may not make cut in his pay
for fear of the result. But the other
side of the issue has already COM

STOCK MARKET REFLECTS
PRICE REDUCTION CAMPAIGN
DEVELOPMENTS of the Week Have Been in
Line With the Long Expected.
Investment Conditions Good.

said that the peak of the cost Of living
was reached some time ago, that i'm
provement has set in. and that taking
all the items in the family balance sheet
the aggregate of expense is pretty GER
tain to be decidedly lower in a few
months from now.
Lessons Need of Credit.
The price-cutting campaign, if it
serves to encourage fresh buying, will
be powerful aid to the reduction
of bank credits. One Of the things
which has impeded credit defation
has been the unwillingness of the re-
tailers to buy. This has made it
to carry the mills with their big sur
plus stocks. With retail buying start
ing up again this surplus will be
worked off and the loans at the banks
liqufdated. Meanwhile the credit sit
uation continues satisfactory certain

ings of month to three months ago.

Investment situation Good.
Irrespective of the vagaries of the
speculative market. the Improvement
in investment conditions is uninter-

new security issues offered during the
last few months has not 6atiated the
public appetite is clear from the way
all new flotations are going. The

Eqipment offering WAS oversubscrib.
ed fully twice within three hours after
the opening of the books.
The great investment event Of the
week, however. has been the con.
tinued recovery in liberty bonds,
which are up two and one-half points
from where they were selling in the
early part of September. most of this
gain having occurred in the last few
days.
1nasmuch as the heavy fall in these
war bonds struck at public confidence
more than anything else that oc-
Cured during the first six months of
the year. their recovery will do more
than anything could do to restore a
favorable public sentiment toward the

Arizona republican., 1920-09-28

a railroad terminal at present was done at the request of the railroads.
 The statement was made yesterday that the railroads would be unable to submit plans for the proposed station to the corporation commission on Oc- tober 1, as ordered by the commis- sion, due to the negligence of the city commission in replying to the rail roads query as to whether or not it would close certain streets required by the plan which. it is said, would care for main line travel. It was further rumored that the corporations which had made an appropriation of a half million for the union depot would brook no delay son the part of the city and that the corporation commission, in sympathy with the railroads might annul it's order for better terminal facilities for this city.
 It is known that the railroads ap- peared before the commission on Sep tember 21 asking that two streets be closed. Owing to the fact that the city has employed the firm of Bennett and Parson of Chicago to plan the city the commission did not deem it advisable to take any action until the plan for the proposed depot was sub- mitted to representative Frost of the city planning firm, who is now in Phoenix with the idea of having the structure harmonize with the proposed plan for the entire city.

from other staple spinners. But the other spinners are likewise reduced in production. Practically all industries are in the same boat, although some branches are harder hit than others. But when the reaction sets in, even if the tire companies should not benefit at all by such reaction (which is pre- posterous) there should be ample de- mand,, as heretofore, for all the staple cotton raised in the world.
 For over a yean everyone has been talking about the period of readjust- ment. Now we are in it. The trouble with so many of us is that we wanted the other fellows business readjusted and our own left alone. Fortunately. for Industry as a whole, we have all got to take our medicine, and the man who can swallow the pill with the best grace and assist himself and the other fellow to recover, will come through all right
 There will be some losses, but there has been a lot of profit. Compared to the losses of the boys who went across and fought in the war, which is the primary cause of the present situation the mere financial losses of us who stayed safely at home are not great enough to moan about. It is now our time to stand up and show our ability to fight.
 Faith in Valley
 "As to our own little valley here and the valleys of Yuma and Imperial the cotton industry is here to stay. We have our problems, but I believe there i is not one but what can be solved The basis is here: Land, water, eli mate. The rest Is up to man. Any man who has lost faith in this valley | has lost faith in himself.
 There is an old statement that con ditions right themselves.' I suppose we say that, because eventually there l is an end to everything. But condi- tions don't right themselves. Condi- trons are righted by men who keer cool, have faith and courage, and work 1 hard''
Arizona republican., 1920-09-28

operate at any profit, even on the net gin charge of $2O per bale to the gin.
 There is no use dealing in rumors about these matters. We will all feel a Hot better, and act a lot more sen sibly, if we get together and study our troubles in spirit of cooperation and desire to meet our problems on a fair and mutual basis. As evidence of our faith, we have offered to show our rec ords of operation and costs to a com mittee of the Cotton Growers asso- citation.
 Price of Seed and Picking
 ",The price of seed to the farmer is determined by the price at which the products of this seed can be sold and the crushing cost. A few months ago oil could be marketed at 20 cents per pound. Today the market is around 8 cents per pound, Phoenix. Growers have got to seek elsewhere than at the oil mills to explain the price of seed.
 We all wish to see the men in the valley get an adequate rate for their labor. I have heard talk of bands of pickers demanding six, eight, and even ten cents per pound. That is absurd, and if any growers adopt such prices for picking, they will fail The present price yield to any man who is compe- tent and who will put in a reasonable working day a good wage for the char dCIeT OI nIS IdDOI. A very SlTlklHS evidence of this is that some of our linemen whom we were obliged to lay off, when we stopped all further new development until the present crop is attended to. These linemen are now averaging S6 per day picking cotton and the wife of one of our unit super intendents is averaging $7 per day.
 At five cents pound, growers must insist that the cotton be picked clean The industry was given a black eye with the spinners because of dirty picking last year. This year, there is bound to be a high differential between grades, and the farmer who wants g good price for his cotton must bring clean cotton to the gins. He absolutely can't afford to do otherwise.
 Other Markets and Yields
 There are about 200O 900 bales oi staples grown in the world per annum Even at the peak of their production the tire companies never used more l than 300,000 bales. Assuming that the tire companies are down to one hal production at the present time, anC have supplies on hand to run them into early next year. even so there still re- mains the pre- existing consumption

day. when the matter was brought to the attention of city officials, there has been no meeting of t' .mis- sion. but yesterday Avery npson, city manager, gave the assuf that the question would be dispC of in a few days.
 Branding as absurd the charge that the city gave the union depot plan no response and met the advance of railroad men in an alleged peculiar fashion," Fred Adams. city commis- sioner. declared that the railroads had made the request that no information be given out until all details were settled.
 Mir. Adams said that after the city secured a city planner he thought it no more than ri%ht but that the plans of such an important structure which will be the central building of the railroad zone should be passed upon by the head of the department. MT. Adams stated that there had been no delay on the part of the city, that only few days had elapsed since the matter had come to it's attention and that the commission telegraphed at once to MT Frost who arrived in Phoenix Sunday. He is now prepar- ing his report. according to Commis-
 sioner Adams.
