attention TO the very excellent record
which Kenneth Doyle. the young man

Doyle has established the enviable
reputation OF having won every Grim.

This IS certainly great record and
Mr.. Doyle is entitled to very much
credit for IT, But, doesn't the fact that
Mr. Doyle has won every case mean

IN LOVE WITH YOUR JOB

Many well informed business men

perience another prosperous era until
men fall In love with their jobs again.

who has to work. whether he Is work
Ing for himself or another. by the day
or by the month, of high or low de-

success OF the enterprise In which he
Is engaged that he lost when the world
went topsy turvy over war conditions.
How many men do you meet now-a-
days who are genuinely interested In
the success OF the agency that fur
nishes them employment? There are a
few but not many. And, this holds
true from the top to the bottom. The
man who wears the white collar and
directs the enterprise from the private
office is no more immune from this
loss OF interest In his work than is
the man who handles a shovel at the

that the wage paid man is not so

PHYSICIANS AS BARKEEPs

The recent ruling OF Secretary Mel
len has made the physicians OF the ma
ton the ofiicial bar keepers for the
thirsty. The physicians do not enjoy
the distinction. as may be gathered
from remarks made al the congress
OF surgeons that was IN session AT
Philadelphia when the ruling was
made S0~
A canvass OF the physicians and sur
geons present showed all OF them op-
posed TO the attempt TO make the town
doctor the town bar keeper. II was
shown that only three per cent Of the
doctors OF the country embrace the
opportunity 10 gather coin from writ
ing booze prescriptions and. as one
physician said. that three per cent
can't make living az anything else.
Irrespective OF the merits Of the

WHEN Is INDIAN SUMMERl

Any fine days In Autumn are called
Indian Summer days by those who do
not know when that season really
comes in reality. Indian Summer is
in November. One of the best descrip-
tions of this season Is taken from the
National Intelligencer" OF November
26, 1857, and the definition was print
ed to settle dispute among the read
ers that publication. II follows:
"The short season OF pleasant
weather. usually occurring about the
middle OF November, is called Indian

Indians TO avail themselves OF this de-
lightful time for harvesting their corn,
and the tradition Is that they were ac-

PLANTING WILD RICE

We met Mede LaPlante carrying
bundle OF buriap nearly as big as him
self last Tuesday. In response to an in-
quiry Mr.. LaPlante told us that he was
bringing the burlap home TO cut II up
into small sections for bags. These
small bags will be filed with wild
rice seed and thrown into the lakes
in this vicinity that are especially Ell
ticing to duGN and wild fowl.
Mr.. LaPlante tells us that the failure
10 grow rice successfully in our
lakes has been one OF fundamentals in
the planting OF IT, Sufficient rice must
be planted in spots to provide the rats
with forage and leave sufficient of
the plant grow to feed the ducks also.
The rice that has been planted did

Plante, but the rats ate the most of 1t

EXIT TOwNLEY AND

The Non-Partisans held North Da-

band that they turned the constitution

10 lot OF communistic activities, all OF
which went glimmering when the spot

turned upon them.
Townley started the n-Partisans
by organizing the farmers OF North

greedy hold which the money power
had upon them and which Il was using

balance OF HIS life time. But. he was
ambitious beyond the bounds OF dis
erection. He expanded his activities
until the container wouldn't hold wat

It's amusing TO hear the comments

without any qualm OF doubt that the

ever came down the pike; to hear ex-

condemn the law one would decide
that II is the height OF absurdity.

FARMERS BUYING
 AUTOMOBILES NOW
This Presages a Business Boom, Says Lawrence
 Pennington

Much encouragement is given to the belief that business in general will continue to improve because of the fact that much of the recent in- crease in the automobiles business has come from agricultural Nommu- mites. The autopoDle industry now at s5 per cent of normal-is leading business in general and it's experiences point the way for oth- CTS
 Up to July l." says R. L. Pen nington, president of the Detroit Mo tor Car company, "S0 per cent of our business was in the cities. But during the past two months there has been marked increase in the purchase of quality automobiles in the farm market.
 There always was plenty of buy ing power on the farm, but the far mer was not satisfied on the ques- tion of price. Naturally, having seen his products drop rapidly to low price levels he felt that the things that he bought should like wise decline. It is not surprising that the farmer was the hardest of all to satisfy on the price ques- ton.
 The second price reduction of Paige cars in June satisfied the far mer that such prices for such product were at bed rock, as they are. In consequence Paige business In the farm market picked up amaz- ingly. Having satisfied the most ex- acting of all buyers we naturally have reason to feel that the price question is settled to the satisfac- ton of the buying public, and that they may fill their motoring needs in utmost confidence that there will be no further rapid declines in the automobile mark ct"
