A Financial Success.

firing efforts in making this en-
tertainment the success it was,

KEEPING THE FAITH.

Most American citizens have
confidence in the future Of the
United States; only a few are
pessimistic to the point of be-
lieving or pretending to believe
that we shall never get back to
normally.
Eventually the clouds over
hanging the business world viii
disappear. Behind them, the
sun, symbolic of normal busi-
ness conditions, is shining. Nat
ional resources will have little
to do with the adoption of an
optimistic attitude. Past expert
ences teaches us that every de-
preston has been followed by
good business. This statement
of fact may be better than a
volume of arguments. We must
never allow ourselves to lose
hope in the future of this coun.
try. Our wealth has scarcely
been scratched. We are a
mighty people, and the next 1C
years should witness an indus
trial expansion, bringing to al
prosperity transcending any for
mer decade.
If more Americans we're mani,
Testing their faith in the sub
stantial character of the re
sources of this country and it
great future there would be less
opportunity for the pessimisn
just now hanging so heavily o
yer some quarters.

CITY FINANCES.

On another page of this issue
of the Intelligencer may be
found the report of the City
Treasurer for the fiscal year
ending March 81, 1921. 1t is
printed that all taxpayers may
read and study, without expense
to the city.
The report is encouraging, to
say the least, that the city au-
thorities are keeping within the
city's income. The various
funds show a healthy balance,
and the total Of registered
claims is $193.24. The bonded in
debtedness includes both the
city hall bonds and the judgment
bonds. The city hall bonds is
sued July /, 1905, for $4,000
20 $1,000 bonds payable in
twenty years-ten of them have
been retired, five of them in the
past three years by the present
City Treasurer, G. c. Wright.
The amount of judgment bonds
was originally $23, 1901. These
bonds we're dated May l, 1918,
and the present city treasurer
has called and retired $14,505.-
So.
1t has become a habit in Lex
ington to "cuss" the city admin
istration, many times merely on
general principles; but, that's
. no way to cooperate, and in
view of the showing made in
) Treasurer Wright's report, let's
do the right thing and congrat.
ulate the city administration.
, The demands upon the city's
purse is without end. The City
Council is constantly besiegeC
by citizens, individually and col
E lectively, for appropriations
