A BIRD IN HAND is BETTER THAN
TWO BIRDS BY MAIL

HEN you order a piece of goods By
mail, you know nothing about the
quality of the article delivered until
it has been tested by use. Having
been used and found wanting, you
have to go to the trouble of sending
it long distance back for long-dis-
lance satisfaction, very rare bird
indeed
Trade in a home store and you
get quality. The local merchant
must carry quality or his neighbors
will not trade with him. And if
there has been bad quality acciden-
tally, it is only step into his store
to show him the error.
The merchants of our town have
both quality and price. If you will
only figure out the common sense,
Of it, you will find that it is cheaper

HEATING PLANT FIRES

Fire is good friend of man, on one
of his worst enemies, just as we make
it. 1t is friendly when confined with
in its proper limits, destructive when
we permit it to break its bounds.
1t should be clear to all that a sound
stove, furnace or boiler, sound smoke
pipes. and a perfect chimney, are
necessary to cOnfine the fire, and
equally clear that radiated heat in
of these, unless such woodwork is we'll
protected.
A stove board under the stove and
an incombustible base under every
furnace and boiler are necessary, so
also is protection of all woodwork
within two feet above and at all sides.
There should be a clear distance of
one and One-half times the diameter
of the pipe between the smoke pipe
and the jOists, wood or lath-and-plas-
ter ceiling above, and a distance equal
to the diameter Of the smOkepipe to a
partition or wall. If these clearances
are not there. then good protection is
needed.
Such protection should be metal over
asbestos board metal alone is not
good protection, as it will heat
through.
Every intelligent citizen knows these
facts, and it. truly is a sad reflection
on our intelligence that failure to OBJ
serve these and like simple cautions
caused a fire loss of 81. S25,5S5 in Wis
consin in 1920
If the cautions herein are observed,
the smokepipes and chimneys kepc
clean. the fire properly managed, and
poor, dry, moss-grown shingles re-
placed with incombustible roof Gov
ering, this loss of property would not
occur
The average householder is careful
about insurance to indemnify himself
against loss by fire, but criminally
careless about inspection and cOrrec-
ton of dangerous conditions, which
would assure greater safety to those
to whom he owes protection.
Is your heating plant ready and
safe for early use?

RAnRoAp RATE PREDICTIONS.

Out of the west comes the news of a cut in passenger rates that may be precursor of a readjustment of relations between the railroads and the public Within the week, the Missouri Pacific made a 50 per cent reduction in pas senger rates between St. Louis and Kan sas City, followed by like cut few days later by the Chicago & Alton and the Wabash. There Is little doubt that travel has been checked by the increased cost of transportation, which in some cases reached as high as double what it was before the war.
 The cut rates in the west appear to be the direct outcome of competition, and there is little doubt that this econ onic force will play a part in getting the country back on normal basis. If people will not buy goods or services at the price demanded for them, the price must be reduced in order to keep business moving, for no concern, carrier or other, can naintain itself unless business moves. This necessity became apparent to commercial houses some thing over year ago, and since then there have been notable price reductions which there is every reson to believe prevented worse conditions.
 The reduction of eastern grain rates that has also been made by the rail roads leads to the expectation that the carriers are awakening to their true sit nation and will take further steps in this direction. The freight rate does not make much difference in the price of some goods-except as 1t is used as an excuse for charging higher retail prices but it does make a large difference in heavy freight, such as coal, lumber, brick, cement, road building material, etc. It is said that on southern lumber II makes necessary an increase of about s5 a thousand over prices that prevail ed before the war

Happily a break in the entente be- tween England and France has been avoided by the agreement that has been reached in the supreme council upon Upper Snesia.

 "Oh, that was different" his sister ex- plained kindly. Its horrid being early at 3 dance because nobody is there to see you come in, and what's the use of a brand new dress if it is going to be overlooked? Besides Harold needed dis ciplining.

CHARM IN WOMEN IS
 QUALITY HARD TO DEFINE


 Why, with their sex so much in the majority in numbers, is it that some wo- men have many offers of marriage? If widowed once, even twice, they can al- ways marry again? Young middle-aged or old, they arc never without sweet hearts.
 Of course opportunity and environ ment must have great deal to do with matrinionial chances, but never rheless the truth remains that a spe- cial type of woman may be in the most adverse circumstances-a nunnery a boarding school or lonely country house and man will find her out. She has that wonderful gift of personal allure ment, possessed long ago by Cleopatra and Mary Queen of Scots, which no one has ever bscn able to define.
 It does not depend upon physical beauty for it has been the dover of women with quite plain features. NoI does it ops ate tH one sex alone. Girls at school can wield it over their fellows Always, in c7ery community, there are one or two who attract the rest with out apparent effort That is the provok. ing part of it.

IN TRAINING AT DEvENs.

With all the Advantages that come from actual conditions of camp and ar my life as part of their course of train ing and instruction, the citizens mffi- tary training camp at Devens is in prog ress. some 1900 men from the first corps area receiving military instruction there. Regular army officers are on hand to di- rect the proceedings. That this offer for military instruction aroused real inter- est and a desire to be among the for tunate ones to attend camp is shown by the fact that the applications far exceeded the number of men who could be allotted there.
 Certainly this Is good sign. The reaction from the war is still apparent everywhere. Americans are not mili- tarists. Yet those of them who think know that this is nation liable like other nations to attack, and that un- less we are to maintain great standing army. which nobody wants, we must permanently depend on citizen soldiery as our reserve. Also that the reserve must be available quickly, because the first army line-of-defense is to be left so weak.
 Hence it is the spirit of patriotism to learn the rudiments of soldering. Per haps there ought to be 3 thousand times as many men as are at Devens gathered in like camps Perhaps there will be, sometime. But considering all the condit ons, the enrolment of 1900 1, a .creditable showing. No young man will learn anything there that will not aid to make him a better American. The officers have as great a contempt fol the Prussianization of our service as the learners. That is grateful reAss tion.
