GIVE MORAL AND MATERIAL
SUPPORT

One hears almost every day
the saying that nothing can be
done without money. There are
few things which can be done
without money in fact, there is
practically no thing which can
be accomplished in business with
out capital. A commercial body
can do much toward building a
town Or city, but it cannot ac-
compllsh very much unless it has
the material as well as moral sup
port Of the business men. It
takes money to advertise; it
takes money to buy paper and
pay postage; it takes money 10
prepare circulars; it takes money
to pay the expenses of ollf-og-
town prospectors and all Of this
must be done if we are going to
bring new industries here. aud
this we must do.
The Chamber OF Commerce
should be completely reorganiz-
ed Immediately after the Christ
mas holidays and every business
firm and professional man in

necessary to enable this organ
lzatlon TO DO its work prnpeIIy
and efficiently, and it Will do so
If 1t is given the support which

it is intended for the youngster,
and it should prove even more
valuable to the man Of experience
for with his foundation Of prac-
tical knowledge he can get a great
deal more out Of it than the man
with no experience. We believe
it would mean hundreds, prob
ably thousands of dollars to a
farmer to attend this course and
get new ideas.
Farming is a subject which re-
qulres 1ho deepest study to make
a success Of it as a business and
a man can never know too much
about his business. When one
gets to the point where they
know 1T all they are sure to 90
backwards instead Of forward,
but the man who is always search
ing for more knowledge and in
formation about his particular
cular business or profession
cannot be held down.
There is no power on earth which
can hold him down. If there
ever was time in the history
farming when every resource
had to be resorted TO in order TO
make t success. it is the pres
ent time and we would appeal to
four farmers to take advantage
Of every opportunity to improve
their knowledge and adopt
modern innovations and methods.
Only those who do this will sue

YOU can. but ! don't think you could do
i II you want TO admit the truth. Per-
hapS 10 you I sound like an old maid,
but I don't think so. for I am eighteen
years old. The only thing is that I am
disgustod with the fellows and girls o. =.
today. the way they do things and the
way they act. Perhaps l am wrong. but
think that it is the girls fault for al
most everything. OF course. there are
young men that ruin girls regulations
but think If the girls OF today were not
so crazy about good time and walking
with anything that wears pants. and
would be more Independent than what
they are, the world would not come to
what II is now. l am not speaking just
because ! want to hear myself but |
am talking from experience. You will
hear girls say Well, l am just about
sick Of staying home every night. ! am
going up to dance. / should worry
what the fellows are like. / don't have
20 marry them.' They go there and
don't care what they do or how they
act; but II girls would have a will OF
their own. II they would have some
backbone in them, they would not do
ways OF having a good time besides
making fool out OF yourself. II each
and every girl would be independent, the
fellows would think more OF them and
have more respect. so that when n girl

Read Your Character
By Di0bp Phillips
Angular Handwriting

Did you ever know calm. placid,
easy going man or woman who natu-
rally wrote an extremely angular hand ?
No. You didn't. That's fiat.
Maybe you have seen persons who
were apparently of placid dispositions
write such hands, and maybe YOU have
known nervous, alert persons who were
taught to round their letters into
smooth curves and who did so when
they were trying to write well.
But the angular hand and the placid
temperament absolutely do not go to-
gether.
If mans writing is angular, and
you find him calm and placid in man
ner, be warned. Underneath the sur
face you have one who is keenly alert.
quick in thought and action. with n
natural tendency toward energy and
activity, no matter how well he may
suppress it. And also, he has nerves
which can get on edge and cause trouble
for you II you're too careless with
them.
Did you ever notice that women 8
writing is more often angular than
mems? That is because the character
istics mentioned are more often found
in women than in men (barring our
suppositltious illustration of an assumed
placidity.) Aren't they?
For the rest, people who write angu-
larly are apt to be restless, practical
and Industrious, emphatic and quick in
their opinions, and with certain
manual dexterity.

The crepe family has a certain rug
ged pioneer constitution which renders
1t impervious to time and elements. Its
popularity Is not affected by the fall
of the mercury, and the vacationist of
late August and September finds either
Canton crepe or crepe de chine exactly
az good a selection as il was in April
and May.
The simple yet effective little frock
illustrated today is made of white Can
ton crepe, trimmed only with picoted
bands of self material. Regarding white
crepe, reports from the Paris races in
dicate it as being the only serious rival
| Of black crepe. At these races one
found the adherents Of the snowy tint
trying out many delightful experiments
In color. The same empiricism Is noted
| on this side, where the white crepes
are frequently treated TO design Of col
ord beads or embroidery. or TO some
arresting note of binding or of applique.
Speaking of crepes in general, it is
! to be noted as present development
| that there is a much wider use of self
| fabric trimmings inNContrastins tint on
crepes of all kinds. Duvetyn is also
employed In combination to provide a
| note Of contrast, and frequently the
! latter Is employed In panel shape on
frocks of the lighter texture.
