Forbes Day Celebration.

The Citizens OF American Fork are
to be congratulated on their Forbes
Day Celebration" The various feat
ures OF the. day were well planned
and all successful. The community
spirit which II aroused and the conf
dence which comes to the commun
lily from doing service is Of inestim,
able value.
A consequent fact. both worthy and
significant to note is the attitude that
was taken toward the cause of educa-
'tion. II seems almost to have been
the design OF the committee and 9th :
err active citizens to make evident
respect and loyalty to the schools. and
the teaching force in general. and to
endorse the principles and ideals OF
our school system.
The results of the day show that
democratic community Ia standing
squarely back of one of It's leading
institutions. that II Is encouraging
the progress OF education.
Those who are officiating In the
schools. those who are teaching as
we'll. feel incalculaby benefited by
the attitude and efforts of the town
and it's people. A closer cooperation
has been promoted. One more stcr
has been taken toward cementing q
union of good fellowship between the
school and its patrons.

SUPERFICIAL THINKING

II is rather surprising TO see so
much ignorance and narrow minded
ness among some people in regard to
Tatters OF general importance as
there is still. Especially in this fav-
ored, enlightened age Of Industrial
and commercial coordination and en-
terprise.
Not long ago in listening to con-
versation by some people whom had
thought were all wide awake and SEN
sible, enc OF them said. well II
matters but little to me how much
others have OF this worlds comforts
so long as ] avn poor and INDECENT
To which another in the group. more
sensible than he, replied. well
think II does matter to you quite O
bit, for this reason that when your
, reighbor builds a house, or in an,
other way adds to the importance and
value Of the town you live I'm, II en-
hances the value of your property
and. consequently. you thus naturally
become partaker Of his good fortune
ard prosperity.
Time was. perhaps, when such anti
quated and illogical ideas as are men
toned above. might have passed must
er without dispute. but in this adj
vanced age. when every public utter
ance is subject to analytical scrutiny
superficial thinking is too thin ant
too irrelevant for intelligent accept
ance.

GERMANY FEARS RESULT OF INITIATION.

Germany is beginning to realize that the bene- fits that coming to her result of her inflated currency and the low exchange value of her marks is ephemeral. It has produced fictitious condition that cannot continue. It is sort of financial powder magazine that is likely to explode at any time, according to the belief of Chancellor Wrth, who is Finance Minister in his Cabinet It is for this reason among others that the head of the German Government is taking steps to bolster the value of marks by putting under the enormous issues of that country something substantial. He proposes to put behind the money of the country and the de- mands present future, one-ifth of the wealth of the by appropriation through the exercise of the taxing power.
 Of the German Chancellor is right In the end inflated currency will become plague. It always has been Real prosperity with sound business principles and currency, like mer- chandse anything else that is created for ex- change, should possess honest value.

GOLD AND SILVER SHIPMENTS INCREASE

The first eight months of the present year Wit ressed greater shipments of gold and silver from Alaska than did the first eight months Of last year. Up to the of September this year Alaska shipped precious metals to the value Of $3,772372. For the same period in 1920 the shipments amounted to S37O3147 The increase nearly $7O,00O
 The record the last few years shows that the ma for portion of Alaskas gold and silver shipments are made the four months of the year. however and we may expect to these figures vastly i'm proved before the books for 1921 shall have been closed total shipments of the precious metals for the entire calendar year of 1920 amounted to $7,4l3,- 751 the remainder of the year shall show as great gain over record of last year the first eight months showed this year should see the shipments amount to more than and half millions
 These figures do not include the total of Alaska s production in gold and silver People continue to take gold in their pockets and as baggage. The Geological Survey which depends shelter, assay office and for figures, usually shows ap- proximately $3000,000 in gold from Alaska each year than the Customs returns show.
 While the figures do not show anything like the gold output that was produced by the Territory a decade and yet there is good deal of sat- isfaction that the record would indicate that the bottom has been reached. There many things that would indicate that we may look for greater inn provemfnt next year, and in the years to come.
