DON'T TRUST THE SOCK

There are still many people around
Julesburg who still put their money
away in an old sock or the sugar
bowl, and refuse to trust it to Uncle
Sam or good, solid banking insti-
tuition. We read recently where a
man lost his straw hat, and with SIS
he had stored away inside the hat
band. Another man gave a boot
black pair of shoes to shine-and
when too late remembered he had
stuffed $4,000 in the toes of the shoes
for safe-keeping. And every day we
read of money stolen from its hiding
place under rug or mattresses-the
first place a burglar looks for valu-
ables. But some people simply can't
profit by these examples; they can't
bring themselves to realize that moth
ing in all the world is as safe and Sc
cure as Liberty bonds and war saw
ings stamps, and that bank failures
are almost unheard Of in this coun-
try any more. We're sorry for these
kind of people-the kind who are
afraid to trust their fellowmen.
We are very sorry for anyone
who loses sleep-and the man who
can't trust his money into the keep
ing of others usually loses more or
less sleep for fear someone will walk
away with the sugar bowl or the
sock.

DON'T SPOIL YOUR CHRISTMAS

We recently told JulesburY citi-
zens how they could add to their
Christmas happiness by doing their
shopping early, before the stores ara
crowded and the clerks are dead on
their feet.
Now we want to take moment
to tell you still another way to make
the occasion joyous one, both for
yourself, for those to whom you give,
and for your neighbors. And that is
the simple proposition Of buying the
gifts you expect to buy right here at
home. You'll doubtless see many
tempting offers in big city papers
and somestimes form the false i'm
preston that you can't get just what
you want, and that it won't be as nice
as you want, if bought here at home.
Tear any ad that attracts you out of
the paper and take it to home mer-
chant and he'll quickly convince you of
your error. 1t may not be right there
in stock, but nothing will please your
home merchant more than to order
that particular gift for you, and at q
price in keeping with the one you see
advertised.
There is mighty little loyalty in
buying away from home the things
you are going to give home people for
Christmas. And neither is there
economy in it. You have to pay ex-
press or postage if you order by mail,
and when they tell you that you can
"save" enough buying somewhere else
to pay your railroad fare they're
merely imposing on your ignorance.
Take all this into consideration be-
fore you make purchase out of
town. But, above all, ask yourself if
you are loyal to your home town if
you make your living here and then
spend the money with strangers.
Think these things overland then
don't make the mistake of spelling

-sCRAPPING OUR NAVY

The world has been fairly taken off
its feet by the proposition to scrap
billions Of dollars worth Of battle
ships, and then to cease building any
more for ten years. 1t was . daring
stroke on the part Of America to pro-
pose such q program, but America is
noted for doing big things, and this
newest proposition is merely in keep
iig with her way of doing that which
she sets about to accomplish.
Julesburg citizens who pay taxes
are heartily in favor of such a pro-
gram. So should taxpayers in every
section of America-in every corner
of the world, for that matter. There
is no question but the modern idea
of each nation spending billions to
keep its navy ahead of the other ma
tions goes long way toward keeping
the people Of that nation poor. For
it is the people who must pay for
these battleships. Every dollar spent
in maintaining big navy and a big
standing army comes directly out of
the pockets of the taxpayers. And
no further good is accomplished in
the end than to pile up lot of ships
that usually are found worthless when
an emergency arises.
The plan would do more to prevent
war than anything yet suggested.
Couple it with the plan offered by Mr..
Wilson whereby nations would have
to give three months notice before
declaring war and you have practical
ly put an end to it. Nothing is going
to be lost by going ten years with
out building battleship. And pos
sibly at the end of ten years every
nation entering into the agreement
will sign up to extend the holiday for
all time to come.

MR.. AND MRS.

What wonderful thoughts come up
when these two abbreviations are
printed in a news item-what in
tense human interest they protray.
In papers printed in towns like Jules
burg they take the one big place in
all items, from the simple, visit to
relatives to the larger matters of hu-
man life. "Mr. and Mrs."-the great
news item of the universe, the bring
er of recollections to the man far
from home, who takes his old home
town paper, and reads the items of
Mr.. and Mrs, and lets his mind wan
der back to the days when he knew
the Mr.. in knee pants and the Mrs.
in short skirts-even shorter than
fashion has decreed for her in re-
cent years. It's the hometown pap
er where the real Mr.. and Mrs. items
are printed-and to receive the home
town paper week in and week out is
to know the great happenings of
those you wouldn't forget for all the
world-the boys and the girls you
now know as Mr.. and Mrs.

er or not the United States should
;oin the league Of nations. Europe
vas in . turmoil Of passion and sus-
picion, in which it seemed impossible
20 get the nations to agree on . gen
eral line Of policy. and in which each
country seemed intent only or . sel-
fish game Of grab for its own benefit.
So long had the atmosphere Of du-
plicity and aggrandizement prevail
ed in world politics, that the European
diplomats regarded the Washington
conference with much skepticism. Be-
cretary HuGheks splendid proposal
for limitation Of armament came like
lightning flash of illumination into
this murky atmosphere. It disarm-
ed suspicion and criticism by its
frankness, its honesty, it's good will.
A new spirit seemed to have came in
to the nations, and visions of inter-
national peace and justice seemed on
the point of being translated into
realities.
One of the finest things about this
conference has been the good sup
port it has secured in this country
regardless of political differences.
Some dispositions to throw cold water
were early manifested on the Demo-
cratic side, but it was quickly check
ed by the leaders of that party, who
are entitled to great credit for the
support given to the administration.
Now if we can for the moment for
get politics, and throw the united
sentiment Of the country into this ef-
fort, one of the greatest steps of his
tory will have been taken toward pro-
noting peace, honor and justice in the
dealings among nations.

THE EVE OF PROSPERITY

At time when Julesburg citizens
are inclined to be . wee bit pessimis-
tic over the business outlook, it i
we'll to listen to the words of suek
men ~ Charles H. SchWah, tie great
steel maGpate. Whether or not We
agree with all Of Mr.. Schwab's meth
DDS. there are few who win deny that
be is . leader Of accomplishment.
Listen to what he says:
america il Oh the threshold Of a.
most unbelievable prosperity. We
have had . business spree, and We
are now in the cold gray dawn Of the
morning after. We have to pay the
bill, and we may - well pay with .
good heart.
I'VE are on the eve Of greater de-
velopment- However, wild may be
your business dreams Of the future, /
will wager they will not be ~ wild as
the realization which many of you
younger men will see. If had my
life to live over, today is the time
l would start.
I'VE have just had q board meet
ing Of my companies in New York
and we decided at once to undertake
the expansion of works that we are
running at only 20 per cent Of their
capacity. If we are right in be-
lieving that the future holds pros
perity for us, what better time for us
to spend our money for the expan-
sion that will be necessary in the
future? We can do it cheaper now
than at any other time, and when
prosperity comes we will be ready to
reap the benefit Of it."

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-President
Wilson wrote Premier Lloyd George
of Great Britain last October that
it was highly improbable that either
congress or popular opinion of this
country will ever permit concella-
ton OF any part Of the debt Of the
British government to the United
States in order TO induce the British
government to cancel in part or whole
the debt TO us or France or any Of
the allied governments. An excerpt
from Mr.. Wilson's letter, replying TO
one written by the British premier,
two months previous in which ref
erence was made to suggestions that
the interallied be cancelled, was
made public today for the first time
through insertion in the Congressional
record by Senator Lodge of Massa.

Lodge explained that it was cub
