Prosperity Ahead

There is much comfort to be
had from the statement recently
Of Judge Elbert H. Gary, head of
the United States Steel corporation.
the greatest business concern the
world has ever produced. Judge
Gary says long period Of wonder
ful prosperity is just ahead of the
people Of the United States.
When Judge Gary opens his
mouth he is in the habit of saying
something, and he never says
thing unless he knows what he
is talking about. He has been
a wise prophet in the past, because
he possesses the ability to read
conditions and possibilities as they
are.
There is no reason why his
prophesy should not be ore of
wisdom in this case, because there
is no reason why we should not
prosper and every reason why we
should. Banks and financiers
generally state that we have passed
through our worst period of de-
preston ard are now on the up
grade. Only the rankest kind of
pessimism can hold US back. And
who wants to be pessimist when
ever human instinct spurs us on to
optimism?
Let's demonstrate our faith in
the return of prosperity by recog-
nizing the fact that it is here and
by doing our share toward its
maintenance in this com munity
Let the watchword be production,
wisdom in spending, and the EN-.
ployment OF a systematic course of
saving.
A proportionate amount of the
prosperity of the country belong
to the people of this community.
Let's get all we can and keep all
we get. Other communities will
be doing the same.

Here and There.

Young man, if you have a good
job in the country, hang onto it.
If you want to walk the streets
week after week in fruitless
search for work, go to one of the
big cities.
Newspapers are not parading the
fact, but those who understand
conditions in the large cities can
tell you that employers are laying
off theft help in increasing numbers
every day, and the end is nowhere
in sight.
A good country job has many
attractions The army of the un-
ployed has none.
