Rdb-My- Tism kills infection,

The principle of beginning no
better than we can hold out, is
a good one to follow. In the
good old days our mothers be-
gan with very slim house furn-
ishings. Among the middle
class a half dozen silver tea
spoons was the usual amount of
silver, mesh bottom rocking
chair and half dozen other
chairs without rockers to match,
a half dozen kitchen windsor
chairs, a few dozen dishes, some
home spun linen, a table or two
and as many be steads, were
the principle part of the outfit.
People got married for love
and they thought more of pleas
ng each other than of stunning
the world with their appear
ance. 1t was the rule to live
within our means.
1t seems a.shame that this
ule is not more generally adj
hered to today. We wonder
sometimes if young people get
married today with any sense
of the real responsibilities of
marriage or if it is more with
the idea of keeping up with
some other young couple or
couples in town. That seems
to be the thing toward which
they bend all their energies. In
doing SO they fail to get the best
out Of marriage. To them it is
one grand scramble to keep
up with the bunch" In a short
time the whole scheme looks
like pretty much of a failure to
them. Some of the more level
headed ones find out the cause,
turn out, but sad majority 60
recklessly on lind their mar
riage finally breaks up in di-
vorce. Show us a young cou-
pie who have the courage to
start out and live within their
income and we'll show you that
same couple twenty-five years
later living happily together
with no worries about what the
future will bring them.

TO THE UNKNOWN

General Pershing's proposal to follow the ex-
ample of England by hoROring the unknown dead
of the war by tn eburia of an unknown soldiers
body with national honOrs and thus creating a
spot sacred to the men who died leaving no other
record except the final pledge of their devotion
should be accepted gladly and greatefully by the
people of the United States despite the opposi-
tiOn OF Baker, as yet unfortunately, secretary
of war.
To honor the unknown dead by national
observance and community part in the ceremony
would renew our gratitude to the men who served
their country dead and living, known and un-
known. For gratitude thrives and lives best upon
it's own expression. If every city and town and
community paused for few hours to show this
honor and express again the high appreciation
in which America holds her devoted sons the ef-
feet of such demonstration would be a renewal
of patriotism.
The tendency is to forget and to be negligent
of appreciative expression. Not alone Individual
ly but collectively. An opportunity for nation
wide expression Of the feeling that Americans
hold for those super Americans who served and
died while we awaited the event should not be
neglected

1921 WILL REWARD FIGHTEHs

A slight buc unmlstakable turn to-
ward the better is reported in the
federal reserve boards review Of bust
ness for January. A steadier and
more rapid movement of agricultural
production to market, with an easier
financial situation on the farms, is
one of the items of evidence cited in
support of this view. To strengthen
slightly weakened national business
morale other evidence is available. A
glance through single days news
will discover numerous tonic items.
The financial page, for instance,
discloses that American investors last
week absorbed approximately $780,
100000 of new securities. American
reserve strength could hardly be bet
ter demonstrated. And the bulk of
this huge sum will soon be at produc-
tive work, helping to relieve unem-
ployment and improve purchasing
power.

traordinary interests and demand at

hibition of the horrible example. Folks enjoyed
hearing old Cap Coakley tell how he stole his wifes
garden truck and traded it for whiskey and how he
sneaked the last hen to get drink with. There
plenty of warning and precept in old Caps lect-
ures hut while they were enjoyable they didn't
bring about individual and national prohibition.
Worst of ALL old Cap used to "fall" about every so
often and insist that he had been divinely appoint
ed to whip all the orangemen between the lakes
and the Mississippi Somehow his exposition of
his own derelctions failed ocreate lasting effect.
Fact is that two or three good women of the white
ribbon kind saved more boys and men from a
drunkards life than all the reformed drunkard
lecturers in dozen states.
1t is doubtful whether reformed tramps and
burglars and the like do much good with their
alleged lectures. The record is a spoke in the
wheel. And the suspicion lies at the back Of the
head that the reformation might not have been ac-
complished had not the ability to raise the devil
and enjoy it faded as the grinders became few
and the grassapnrers grew heavy.
The best teachers of youth are those who have
lived decent lives.

THE INEVITABLE

The public is not in possession of the facts
as to costs of running the railroads, income or
deficits, hence can only look on and guess at the
merits of the argument going On between the
managers and the labor unions as to whether
railroad wages must come down.
A few facts however, are self evident. The
volume of traffic on the railroads has fallen away
enormously since the last boost in freight rates.
This is evidenced by the fact that train mer by
the thousands are being discharged on almOss
the roads. We know that only limited amCu.it
of farm products is moving and the merchant
who should receive the return freight is buying
from hand to mouth. January sales with the two
largest mail order houses in the world showed a
decline of AZ and "a per cent respectively in the
volume as compared tc January Of year ago.
Until the last few days the last man in the
world who have been suspected Of being In need
of any more money would have been Henry Ford
1t is now reported that he has been selling his
liberty bonds in New York last week and plans
to sell on the market hundred millions of bonds
of his company in order to raise needed funds
to operate his business and his automobile factory
has been closed for several weeks for lack of
orders. 1t is only few months ago that he had
surplus funds with which to finance peace ship.
Likewise Over-eXpansion and sudden drop in
prices and sales has made it necessary for a
bankers syndicate to come to- the aid of the
Goodyear Tire and Rubber company which was
one of the largest concerns in the world in that
industry
Business is not what it was during the war
or since. The bureau of labor statistics main
tanned by the government at Washington reports
that the wholesale cost of commodities in Dec
enber was 3012 per cent less than at the high
point last May. This would indicate that if rail
road wages were right last spring they are &c
per cent better now because Of increased pur-
chasing power.
It is also apparent to the public that railroad
rates can not go higher without driving business
farther away. If the railroad executives succeed
in proving to the federal labor board that both
ends do not meet in their musiness then there is
but one inevitable result to follow; costs mus
come down, costs of coal, iron, wages and every
other cost. 1t is time men got at the real facts
whatever they are and took sane and REASONABLE
view of what can not be prevented. Prices ar
down on the farms and that very fact is going t.
bring down the general level of prices for al
other things

THOSE REFORMED" LECTURES

A reformed man" has been talking to the
youth of Y. M. G. Ait don't matter where
He told them all about how tough he had been
and about his wanderings about the face of the
earth seeking what he might devour and all that.
Pears like he kept this tough stunt up until he
got pretty aged and shot to pieces before he quit
it. Now he is telling the boys about it and show
ing them what physical perfection and moral
symmetry he took on after he had his fling and
reformed.
Something about those alleged lectures" by
such lecturers lacks complete appeal. Somehow
they make one think of plays where the leading
lady has carried on terribly as vamp and worse
and then settles down to be happily married and
live rich and respectable on the "Blue Mouse
order. The suggestion to youth is that almost
anything goes if you straighten up along in later
life and get married. So too the suggestion might
carry that if the lecturer" could get away with
a half century of devilment and hell cultivation
to become highly respectable and much in demand
afterwards that others could do the same thing

Realization of just how near to being broke

legislators by the difficulty they find in getting
