YOU AND YOUR JOB.
(By Frank Crane.)

When you WORK Tor man, you 90
not work for wages. If your eye is
only on your pay you are a second
class worker. You will certainly slight
your work, and your employer will
get rid of you as soon as he can.
You have something better than
wages to work for, always; it is your
Self, for your future.
You owe it to your best Self to be
loyal, to give the best that is in you.
You are in a way Partner in the
concern.
If your employer is an unjust and
selfish person, and takes advantage
of you, overworks you, does not ap-
preciate what you do, complains and
never says an encouraging word,
right there is where you are to show
the stuff you are made if. Don't be
Ike him. Keep on doing the best you
can for him. When you cannot stand
it any longer-quit. But never take
mans money and slight his work.
If you persist in this way, you arc
bound, sooner or later, to become
known as a valuable man. Your

While you take active concern in
your employers affairs don't be of
ficious. Remember that every busi-
ness is in way a military affair.
Some one head has 10 run it. The
rest are to obey orders. Your re-
sponsibility lies in doing what you
are. told. If you think your orders
are not wise, obey anyhow; the re-
sponsibility fRr them is not on your
shoulders.
Get the habit of listening attentive
ly to what ysur employer commands.
Don't take things for granted. Have
things made plain. Find out exactly
what he wants, and do it.
Never bungle a job. What you do,
do WELL. If you are to sweep the
store, make it as tidy as a particular
woman's parlor. If you are to tie
bundles, learn how to make them look
as though they had been done up by
machinery. If your work is to black
shoes, black The heels.
Be punctual. Be just little better
than punctual. Never allow a human
being to wait on you. If you are to
be at the office at seven sharp, be
there quarter to seven. Start always
sooner than is necessary land allow
+ time for mishaps.

DEMPSEY AND
CARPENTER
An Editorial On the Fight
Worth Reading
New York Tribune lnterprets
Scrap from Standpoint of
Philosopher of History

There was nothing dramatic in the
Dempsey Carpenter fight at Boyle's
Thirty Acres because the result was
inevitable when the gong Changed, and
even centuries before that. Prize
fighting is a primitive game, despite
the efforts of the late Marquis of
Queensberry to make it appear
science or sport. Dempsey possesses
the requisites for heavyweight
champion, the weight and the power,
the rehexes and the instincts Of the
fighting animal. Carpenter possesses
the dash, the grace and the gallantry
of an ideal male human, but these are
puny weapons.
There were 10000 witnesses to the
unequal struggle that produced just
one thrill, the valiant effort OF Car
pentier in the second round. Over
head ten droning aeroplanes, the most
advanced mechanical achievements OF
our civilization, circled while the two
men struggled with the weapons that
the first man used. Only the aero
planes dispelled the illusion of rings
of primitive tribes closing in as a
primitive fight waged.
The American champion won, but
that brought no outburst of Cohan-
ism, for the triumph was lost in the
radiance of the Gallo smile of Car
pentier. He wore that smile as the
bell changed. 1t shone through the
fight in his blood-smeared counte.
nance. He wore it when the mists
cleared from his brain and he rose tt
greet his conqueror.
The soul of France was in thai
smile. 1t was the smile of Cambronnt
at Waterloo, the smile of Papa Joffr'
at the First Battle of the Marine
Such a smile must have illumined thu
face of the unknown poilu killed a
Verdun and sleeping now under tn
Arc de Triomphe. 1t spoke NOR
eloquently than Henley's boast O
hope in conflict and in defeat.
1t baf1ed the primitive and simple
minded Jack Dempsey. The scowl o
the champion turned to look o
utter bewilderment as the Frenchmal
he had battered down stretched ou
his hand and looked at him with tina
same inscrutable smile. Then an
there Jack Dempsey felt himself Il
the presence of a superior being.
And Dempsey's instincts did no
: deceive him. Behind Carpentie

men of Wagram, the millions o
poilus in horizon blue that impose
the first breastworks of human files
against the rush of the Hun. Benin

First Dog Days-Then Taxes

In addition to hot weather, dog
DAVIS and hard times, the everlasting
tax collector has broken out again.
He is busying himself in sending out
notices and taking what's left from
YOUR boarded wealth. Poor man, he
should not be conference.-the is not
to blame. Damned by everybody, ne
is only collecting for the other fel-

escape. The Collector comes along

A Very Pertinent
Question Asked

July 18th, 1921

July l2th, 192l
Dear Editor:
As a friend of the two bands Of our
town and a member of our Fire Dept,
when | learned from the Carnival
program that the whole music pro-
gram was given to one band, l was
surprised and amazed. l made a
little investigation and find that each
of the bands was asked for bids, the
Continental made bid of $500 per
night per man, for band of 20 to %
pieces, this is the price paid last year.
l might mention here that number
of the members of the Continental
Band are firemen and in 1920 offered
their services free to the Carnival
committee, but were informed that
they must make bid as the Commit
tee preferred to pay the bands for
their services. When bids were ask
ed this year, it was supposed that the
same condition existed. l appreciate
the fact that these Carnivals are run
for the purpose of making money,
but it must be remembered that they
are strictly a community affair, and
the feeling Of the community must
be considered if the Carnival is to be
a success. As both our bands have
been very liberal to this community,
very often donating their services, l
think if the Continental Band had
been approached regarding their bid,
it could have been reduced to meet
the means of the Carnival committee
have learned from some Of the band
men that the $500 given the Con-
tinental for their services during the
housing exercises Of the Aetna, has
been donated to the Fire Dept. This
fact is proof that the Continental are
not out for the dollar, but stand
ready to assist in any of our local
affairs and help make them a success
whether il be for glory or for dollars
AS both our local bands have con-

first stop was the post office. Thanks
awfully for forwarding the package.

send it to me here. Miss T got
our mail at La Porte and none of US
knew until last night that she left no

to make this our headquarters for
few days until our plans are settled
definitely; haven't decided yet whether
we'll go to Yellowstone now, or take
the southern trail and go up the coast
of California, stopping at Yellow

We camped night before last at
Sidney, Nebraska, at really truly
ranch house, saw our first big herd
of cattle that day, and some cowboy
riding.
Our welcome to Wyoming was quite
vigorous We didn't leave Sidney
until 11.3O as our radiator sprung a
leak and we had to wait for repairs.
Just over the border Of Wyoming we
were caught in swirling sand
storm; the sky was inky black and
the wind blew so we had to stop the
car. We could see it coming ahead
of us and it was quite thrilling as we
didn't know but that it might be a
cyclone. Miss D and / took to the
bottom of the car, as we happened tc
| be sitting in back. None of us had
ever experienced anything like it. At
ter it subsidized we passed through
several more, none of them so bad
however. Then came the rain in tor
rents, against which we had no pro-
lection. as the wind blew so we could
MT put up the curtains, although the!
fasten easily from the inside. W.
finally got to the next town, where
we put on the curtains, got ou1
blankets, sweaters, etc. The ther
mometer read ga when we left Sid
ney and was So when we reached
CHEYENNE! It's a beautiful day to
day, however, and we're all none tn
worse and are glad to have had tn
experience.
No two days are alike. Somethin,
new always happens. We've had som
quite thrilling experiences which w
are keeping until we get home! Thre
of us take turns driving, so no on
