"Well, that's one way to look at 1t, -
said the other farmer, "but I've always
felt that local newspaper was a
pretty valuable asset to any commu-

tude you do, there couldn't be any To-

A Community Servant.

The local newspaper is the servant
Of the community In which It is pub
lIshed. but to be good and efficient
servant it must be fed by the people
it serves. It is an institution Of the
town quite as much as are the schools
and the churches. and quite as much

PERHAPS NOT A FLIyER

America has not made the most of
its waterways as a source of power
and means of transportation. What
the government has attempted to ac-
complish along these lines has been
discouraged and characterized as
pork barrel politics, But now a
group of men living in the Missis-
sippi valley have originated plan
for the development of that great
stream and have succeeded, accord
ing to reports, in interesting Henry
Ford in it.
1t is proposed to harness the
Mississippi river with innumera-
BILE dams, construct hydro-electric
plants, make a navigable channel
from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of
Mexico, and reclaim millions. of
acres of swamp land. Upon the sub
mission of this scheme to him, Mr..
Ford became deeply interested in
the idea of an organization shaped
so that 1t viii be corporation OIL
the people, with thousands of citi-
zens holding shares of stock and
guaranteed against control by any
monopoly. 1t is said that he regards
this as public enterprise, and one
from which he does not want to take
dollar of profit.
Those backing the project say
that Mr.. Ford will shortly make a
visit to st. Louis and sail out on the
Mississippi on the packet Kate Ad-
ans" The public remembers the
last time he voyaged by water, in
his peace ship, but still it is well to
remember that, in one sense at least
not all Mr.. Ford undertakes turns
into a fliver.

Observation-Disclosures FAn

Eighty-four per cent OF the bust
ness failures Of the past year occur
red among firms which did not adj
vertise, says an authority. This is
the assertion made by Bradstreet's
Commercial agency, which is as I'M
biased an authority as can be found
in the business world today. Brad
streets compiled its information
from statistics, not guess work. The
Importance of advertising as bus
mess element must have been re-
garded as vital by this great COM
mercial agency, else it would not
have wasted the time of hundreds of
trained men throughout the nation
collecting and tabulating this infor-
nation. Bradstreet's thus point the
way to one of the elements of bust
ness success.

MRS. GEoRGE NoRTHUP

Martha Ellen Northup, daughter
of /. NJ. and Eliza Darland. was born
in Poweshiek county, Iowa, August
9Th, 1869, and passed away at her
home in Audubon, Iowa, June 9Th,
1921, at the age of 81 years, 10
months and days. When she had
passed the 18th year of her life she
came to Audubon county with the
family, who settled in the country
west of town. Here she grew TO
womanhood, attending the schools
and mingling in all the life of the
home and neighborhood.
She was united in marriage to
George Northup on the 4th of March
in 1890. Three children, with the
parents, made up the family circle.
One daughter, Esther, preceded the
mother in death. The other daugh-
ter, Mrs. Mable Moore, with the son,
Parker Northup, mourn the loss of
mother.
Mrs. Northup joined the Method
list Episcopal church in 1910, under
the pastorate of the Rev. John Nor
ley. She was a member in good
standing of this body at the time of
her death,
There remains to mour her loss
her husband, her daughter, Mrs.
Mable Moore: her son, Parker
Northup: her father, l. NJ. Darland ;
four brothers, John Dariand of Oma-
ha; Charles Darland, of Audubon
county; A. c. Darland, of Barnes
City; l. N. Darland, of Shenandoah;
three sisters, Mrs. Emma Sales, of
Council Bluffs; Mrs. Maud Walters,
of Guthrie county, and Mrs. LYDIA
Chandler, of Audubon.
Mrs. Northup has not been in rug
ged health since the fall of 1918,
when she gave largely of her
strength to assist in caring for 9th
ers that were i'll. In her devotion to
the instincts of kindness tnat were
in her heart she contracted an ill
ness that proved very trying to her.
At no time completely well since
that time, she has been tenderly
cared for by her husband and others
of the family. Nothing that thought
fulness and kindness could think OF
was left undone to minister to her
welfare Deep, indeed, are the mys-
teries of life, but we are sure of the
never-failing Grace of God to help in
the hour of deepest need.
