CURRENT COMMENT

WHY should the interests Of tho

as different and often conflicting
One cannot expect TO advance without
the other. The farmer needs mari
kets. easily accessible, and he needs
many Of the advantages Of the town
that are not to be readily available
in the country. Likewise, the town
must have the products Of the farm,
and II ia highly desirable that these
BE- produced near ut hand. The towns
need the farmers trade, and they
need above all the virile manhood and
womAnhood Of the rural districts to
help TO mold stable foundation for
their progress Yet II must be admit

a lack Of sympathy with such condi- |

wide gap between the two often is |
evident. The situation Is not ut ali |
peculiar TO any one state. 1t Is not /
easy to put one's finger on the trouble
or to say who is to blame and who is

clare that neither element Is at fault

both live. Primarily, 1t must be that
there has not yet developed sufficient
contact Of town and country. There
have been irregular visitings back
and forth, II is true; the difference
In dress and behavior. except in ex-
treme cases, have been smoothed over.
But the fear Of town on the part Of
the farmer has not been removed,
though considerable progress has been
made in recent years, not only here in !,
Emmett, but in very many other
towns. A condition Of distrust and

shine across far spaces. The rim OF
the horizon is encircIed with them
where they are set like jewels against
the darkening skies. They are all
signal lights, and they fash to the lone
watcher the thought Of home on the
farm, with a family living there.
Our signal lights are not calls for
help as In the days when d flash meant
danger. They are CLEANS from happy
homes, and mark the places that are
almost sacred ground where men and
women, with their children are living
and working for their daily bread.
These summer nights, II one looked in
at the windows where the lamps SHINE,
one would see tired faces, lined with
HE dust Of the field and the cares Of
everyday life, but sglow with the en-
ergy and poise that shine in the ccun-
tenanre Of those who have finished a
good days work. Our signal lights
mark the abiding places where they
i've, whose work Is most essential to
ife--the farmers. One-third Of all

in agriculture, and these long

light the way to rest for the man who |
lands nearest the Creator to do His

HENRY FoRD's success in run

HENRY FORD'S success in running
short railroad at a profit in
these parlous times for railroading
and everything else, does not neces-
sarily signify that all railroads should
be run at profit under present con-
ditions. Henry Ford turned out more
cars last month than in any month
in the most prosperous year in history
and made more money on the ears
sold. yet in the same month one Of
the big motor car factories closed
down, and others lost money. II Hen
ry were making the Rohls- Royce he
would not be making the money that
he Is making in producing the Ford.

he would not be making the money
that he makes running the Detroit,
Toledo & Ireton. In short, the sue
,ess Of Ford in running little rail-
'oad is not large enough yardstick

more money than it spent before the

Old Bill Misgivens is Convinced that
surgery is a paying line and strongly

of the snake was discovered by the

snake could be plainly heard rafting

Here's how jazz was invented:
The trap drummer in the orchestra
had been hitting the hootch. He had
set his music stand in reach, but it
started to fall. He. reached for it and
it upset and hit the base drum. The
drum rolled over, dropping the crash
cymbal, and upset the xylophone, and
the xylophone knocked over the COW
bells. In reaching for the xylophone
the drummer's feet slipped and he sat
down on the baby squawker and the
wood block fell with a loud crash on
the tympani.
