Fossil Remains Reveal Much.

In times Of doubt and perplexity the
geologist turns to the paleontologist
for light on the age and original order
of the rock beds he is studying. The
study Of the animal and plant remains
that are imbedded in the rocks has
thus become an important part OF
geologic work, and although the
SPECIALISTS who are engaged in this
study are few, their work is of high
importance.

What Might Have Happened.

Now suppose that Smith, instead of
buying his groceries from Brown, had
purchased them from mail order
house in a far distant city and sent his
dollar to pay for them. Brown would
not have had that dollar to pay Jones,
the plumber; Jones could not have
paid his printing bill the printer would
have had to stand off the milk man !;
White, the carpenter, would not have
got the money for the work he had
done for the milkman and Smith would
not have got the money which White
owed him for lumber.
This is all so simple that it requires
no student of economics or professor
of mathematics to figure it out. Any
one can see that when Smith sends
that dollar to Chicago or some other
city where the mail order houses -four
ish, that dollar is gone so far as Smith
and Jones and Green and the rest Of
the people in Smiths town are con-
cerned. That dollar will never come
back to pay any bills in Smiths town.
And the thing that stands out most
striking, but is most often overlooked,
the dollar, is hurt just as much when
he sends that dollar out of town as is
the home grocer from whom he might
have bought his groceries.
Now just multiply this one dollar by
a hundred or a thousand or ten thou
sand. One dollar may not seem to
make much difference in the average
town, but thousand dollars or even
a hundred dollars does make a differ
ence. Just as one dollar will pay a
dozen or a hundred small bills, hun
dred or a thousand dollars will pay a
dozen or hundred big bills. When
Brown, the grocery man, owes thou
sand dollars and can't pay it, he is
headed for the bankruptcy courts.
When Jones, the plumber, can't collect
the money which is due him from
Brown or maybe dozen Browns, he is
headed In the same direction as Brown.
And so it goes all around the circle
until it hits Smith or dozen Smiths
who have sent their money out of town
to add to the fortunes of the mail order
men.
Buyer One Who Is Hurt.
Thus, it will be seen that this buy
at-home proposition is really a selfish
one with the man who buys the goods
He is not hurting the home merchant
when he sends his money out of town,
any more than he is hurting himself.
Every sensible man knows that his
livelihood depends upon whether bust
ness in his town is good or not. II
business is not good, he cannot make a
good living for himself and his family,
no matter how hard he may work, and
business cannot be good If the BUSH
ness men in the town are not making
money. This is plain business propo-
sition for every man and woman In the
community. BY spending their money
at home they are helping the home
merchant only incidentally. They are
buttering their own bread. When they
send their money to the mail order
house, they are not only hurting the
home merchant incidentally but-a
thing more important to them-they
are likely to be taking the bread out
Of the mouths Of their own children.

REDUCE STUDENT LABOR

In sympathy with other unskilled
labor the charge for student labor
during the coming school year will
be considerably reduced. Last year
so cents per hour was the prevail
ing wage for student work and ii is
planned this year to reduce to 80
cents per hour. This wage will be
paid for work on the college farm
and it is expected that business
houses and private citizens will
adopt the same scale. The reduc-
ton, it is believed. will prove of ben
eft to the student body in that more
jobs will be available than under the
higher scale and the money will be
distributed among a greater num-
Der of students.

PANSY TROOP TRIP
HELD MANY THRILLS
Encalnpmcnt of Girl Scouts he
scribcd 10y Two Members of
Blue Bird Patrol

The following is an account Of
the trip taken TO the Moscow noun
tains by the Junior and Senior Girl
Scouts of the Methodist church,
written by two members of the Blue
Bird patrol
At $50 Tuesday morning our
great excursion started Carl Ger
ding, driving Emerson's truck and
Mr. Frank Maston, driving his car
assembled to the mountains. AT 9: 80
cars driven by Or. Mcguire, Nj.
Lingg and Eugene Harms appeared
on the scene filled with scouts and
their luggage.
The girls went in groups of twos
and threes and built camps, some
of which were very attractive The
girls also named their camps \
few camp names are: Tarry-a-While,
Dew Drop Inn, Shadywood Inn,
Riverside Inn and Chick Inn,
few minor injuries resulted,
caused by trying to cut ferns and
pine boughs for beds Frances En-
erson fell in a partly filled water
bucket, wetting her trousers CON
siderably. She required a change 81
clothes Mr.. Green cut his finger
and went to sleep in the afternoon.
Laura George became quite sick
and some scouts with the aid of Mr.
Greene telephoned from a farm
house about a mile down the noun
tain. Mr.. and Mrs. George soon ar
rived in Mr.. Maston's car. Owing
to the effort of Mrs Severance they
were supplied with a bite to eat and
soon departed, taking Laura with
them
In the twilight we roasted marsh
mallows and sang Girl Scout songs.
Mr.. Greene and Mrs. Severance en-
tertained with stories.
We went to bed at $50 p. m
and were disturbed in the night by
the snoring of Jeanette Sievers and
Dorothy Hegnauer. Morning came
and it developed we were to hike to
the top of the mountain. After
camp was cleaned everyone save
Dorothy, who had an attack of pig
tits, climbed to the peak. The trip
resulted in many torn coveralls,
scratches and bee stings. On ar
irving at camp we ate, then all rest
ed for one hour. Mr.. Greene had
severe nosebleed during this period.
After resting we held show" at
the brook Many clever dramas
were acted out, all being produced
in camp.
Evening came, games We're played
around the fire, riddles were told
and finally we retired One brill
liant scout thought up names for
Mrs, Maynard and Mrs. Severance.
She named Mrs. Maynard Spare
Ribs" and Mrs. Severance Mutton
Chops" Suitable names for Mrs
Maston and Mr. Greene are yet to be
found. I think Mrs. Seyerance's
name should be Ham"
Next morning after breakfast we
cleared all tin cans. bottles, wood
and other rubbish from camp. Jean
cite Sievers, Ella Olson, Esther Ray
mond and Frances Emerson were
appointed straw bosses. After clean
ing camp we hiked up stream for
two miles then cut through the for
est where we came upon some aban-
doned tables. We brought them to
camp as we had decided to give the
Junior Boy Scouts a feed on their
arriving, as all girls know what bad
cooks all boys are. We had dinner
all ready when they rode up and
they sure did eat.
After washing dishes and packing
them away we departed for home
We all had a fine time but in the
end there is no place like home,
sweet home.
