regiment down and back and quart
ering them while at the Inaugural
ton would be well spent.
In order to have an inaugural ball
there must be some big government
building cleared out to make room
for them, the Pension building is
usually used for that and it becomes
necessary to move out all the furni-
ture and that is big job giving en-
rloyment to many laborers for long
time removing furniture and replac-
ing it, The decorations for the in
auguration give employment to many
people for a short time. The manu-
facture of the materials used in
decoration give employment to many
people and after all most of the
money expended for the usual in
auguration gives employment to the
neople needing employment and
helps to stabilize commerce. But
those things are not needed now,
they have not been needed for the
nast two years. We have been tax
ing the nations energies to get the
necessary work done and now We
have come to the period Of adjust
ment: We think it would be a great
thing to appropriate exactly $40 for
the inauguration of the president
elect. F'

w while you die
You brought lot Of new things
to us. You have told us lot of our
failings and helped us to step better.
You have tripped us up and knocked
us down and talked cross to US, at
times. But we understood, and didn't
mind, because we knew you thought a
lot of US.
So Taps to you, as you steal away
into past strewn with the efforts OF
the mighty.
We made lot Of mistakes while you
were with us, Old Year. But Taps to
them. We went ahead and did things
without thinking them carefully out
And then you told us afterward Of
these blunders. So, you see, we
learned. Thank you. Old Year.
How many times we were disap-
pointed What great things passed us
by! But Taps for them, now, too
Life, after all, is but an unfolding,
a sowing and reapng, going to
bed at nighttime and a getting up in
the morning, tears and laughter, work
and rest, while Time plays about us.
But now you are going away, Old Year.
Good luck to you with what we have
given to you. Taps.
For all that we have lost or failed
in-Taps!
But no regrets--just gladness for
chances, and a million prods of every
sort hidden away in the somewhere
to find us all anew in the glad New

SOUNDING THE
RIGHT NOTE

In these days of reconstruction
and adjustment it is time for COM
munities and states to take an in
ventory of the situation the same as
a business house takes an inventory
of its goods at the beginning of the
year. A community knows best what
it can do and what resources it has
to work with and to act upon after a
consideration of the whole subject
than it does before hand. Merchants
are totaling their inventory to see
what their resources are and it is
good time for communities to take
a survey of their situation and for
Commercial clubs and other civic
bodies to determine what use they
will make of the resources at hand
The Blackfoot Commercial club is
falling big meeting of it's members
for Wednesday evening and it is open
season for the members to suggest
outlines for the year. The CONNER
rial club of Ogden met last week, as
did a good many others and the fol-
lowing item taken from the local
DaDer shows the trend of their
thoughts:
Gus Wright was the principal
weaker at the weekly luncheon of
the Progressive Business club at the
Weber club today. In his address
Mr.. Wright emphasized the need of
boosting for Ogden and stated that
in order to put Ogden on the map,
Ogdenites must first know of what
is what in this city. He suggested
that series of articles be run in news
apers telling the readers of both
ogden and out of city places of the
"ork being accomplished here.-Og-

SENATOR BORAH
WAS RIGHT

Senator Borah sounded the proper
key note when he proposed, on the
floor Of the senate, that the custom
Of appropriating $4,000 or $780,
600 for the expenses of the presi-
dental Inauguration should be for
gotten this time and that they should
appropriate $40 using that to pay
the expense of car to take the
president to and from the inaugura-
ton.
President-elect Harding proposed
that they should cut out the. parade,
the inaugural ball and all other
things, excepting the taking of the
oath of office and the delivery Of the
presidential address, but the organ
ization would not stand for that
There is demand for great
parade; there is demand for an in
augural ball and many other things
and they are threshing matters out
to see what they can agree upon.
In these times when the government
expenses are piling up by the multi
piled millions and there is a great
demand for cutting all unnecessary
expenses and cutting them to the
bone, is good time for the Republic
can party of this nation to set its
foot down squarely on an economic
administration of public affairs. If
they should appropriate exactly $40
for the inaugural expenses and con-
fine it to that, that act of economy
would be setting the pace for the
people of the whole United States
and the world to meet the emergen-
cies now existing. There never was
a time in the world when the people
needed wholesome lessons in econ
omy and thrift as they need them
now and this would be setting an
example at the right time and in the
right place. 1t would take the wind
out of the sails of all who are adj
vocating those things which have the
faint Of Bolshevism. If we shall
expend 100000 for folderols con-
nected with the Inauguration it will
make more Bolshevism in America.
1t will intensity the feeling of those
who are disposed to Bolshevism; it
will be pointed to with bitterness and
ever increasing bitterness and enmity
on the part of those who are not
friendly to the government.
Under ordinary circumstances
when the whole nation is thrifty and
prosperous, a big snowy Inaugural
tion has it's advantages. The pre-
parations for the parade make en-
ployment for many people. One of
the features of the parade that would
be desirable would be to have crack
regiment from West Point and it
would cost some money to move a
regiment from West Point. 1t may
well be said that these men have
been confined pretty close to that in
stitution and in need of an excursion
and this would furnish them an OPP
portunity for fine pleasure trip and
be demonstration to the people Of
the nation of one of the results Of
maintaining the military school. The
