The letter published in this paper
two weeks ago from F. M. Kimball
of California, has been copied into
many of the state papers and has
brought forth much favorable COM
ment. Mr.. Kimball is a native of
Barton and a man who knows where
of he is talking when he makes COM
parison between Vermont and other
states, and his deductions are worthy
of attention. If you failed to read
that letter thoroughly, get out the pa
per again and go over it. And the
next time you are tempted to- invest
money in a mine, ranch, development
or property Of any kind in the West
remember that there are plenty of
development projects right here at
home which are worthy of your con-
fidence, safe for your investment and
which will bring greater home pros
perity.

Income tax blanks are the next
struggle with many persons. 1t is
surprising how many men will figure
every possible way to avoid paying a
small tax to the government, who will
walk right up to some gambling game
and lose money and claim it is no
ones business but their own if they
want to do that sort of thing. A tax
brings holy horrors to many person
who will spend many times his tax
upon the qualification of some per-
sonal whim or pleasure and boast
about it. Just where such persons
patriotism is would be difficult to tell.

Does Advertising Pay?
(St. Adams Messenger

Statistics show that some "a per
cent of the business concerns which
failed during the past IL months did
not advertise. This is not difficult to
believe, for it has been demonstrated
so many times and in so many differ
ent ways that it pays to advertise
that wide-awake business men pin
their greatest faith on publicity.
The store which does not advertise
is, as a usual thing, at a great dis
advantage. The expenditure Of mon
ey for advertising would bring back
great deal more money. Which is
the simple secret of it all. The nom
advertiser is a bad friend to himself
and his business.

Few public requests have ever fall
en- to the lot of Barton, and while
the amount left for the support of the
Methodist church here and for the
work of building or supporting a pub
lie library, is not large as requests
go in many places, the amount is suf-
ficient to warrant the expectation of
a fine public library building in the
not far distant future. The amount
to be equally divided between the two
institutions will be approximately
$4,000, it is expected, and is by far
the largest bequest ever made by any,
one for the public benefit of Barton.
Just why Barton has come to this
year of 1921 without such requests
is question worthy of thought. The
town has a history old enough, has
produced men with talent, fame and
wealth, as other towns have produced
them, but never has the place public
ly benefited by their money as most
other places have benefited from the
hand of former citizens. To be sure
there are noted few small requests,
the aggregate of which is probably
not half the amount left by Mr.. Web
ster and for this reason the Webster
gift is worthy of special mention.
Maybe the spirit and the wisdom
which prompted Mr.. Webster to do
what he has for his town, will prompt
other men of means to do likewise.
Certainly no finer thing can be done
for a place and no finer spirit ever
enters the human breast than the SEN
timent which prompts such acts.
Now that the Woman's Literary Club
has sufficient means in sight to make
building a public library thing to be
thought of for the immediate future,
who of our citizens will help to make
the hope a realization. With the i'm
mediate growth and expansion of
Barton a foregone conclusion, the
time and need for library building
was never more suspicious.
