neither can one brain master every
thing-and the Lord does not provide
any man with more of either.
It may not be possible for the au-
thorities to make a prompt correction
of conditions you report, as there is
a limit to their possibilities. But your
report will impress them upon their
minds, and in time they may be able
to afford the desired relief.
This community has reached its
present state of desirability through
the efforts Of all of our people. 1t
will become even more desirable as
we bond additional efforts to that end
Speak up and be heard. Your criti-
cisms are of no value until you make
noise.
1t is for your good and ours.

YOUR GOOD
AND OURS

AS you wander along the highways
and the byways of this town it is pos
sible that you see many things which
you think should not be.
Do you ever speak of these things
to people who. have the power of cor
rection
Does it occur to you that their alb
sorption in other duties may have
caused them to overlook some of the
things that are SO plain to you?
Do you realize that their brains plus
yours are more potent than their
brains alone?
Every man owes duty to THE COM
munity that"shelters and sustains him.
That duty is to aid in the advance
ment of the welfare of the community
as whole.
Calling attention to undesirable
conditions is not necessarily a refec-
ton upon the constituted authorities.
One pair of eyes can not see anything,

provement in the condition of all crops
is noted by the report.
Silo filling is declared to be complet-

husking and shredding is said to be

Some Improvement is noted in late

Tobacco harvesting is said to have

Winter grains are reported as do

The new seeding of hay is said to

out during the excessive heat is again
appearing, according to the. report.
Pastures are declared to be growing

TOO BIG
BUSINESS

Rockefeller is presumably the rich
est man in the world. His wealth is
so great that even he can not estimate
it. Yet every day sees him a richer
man.
Henry Ford, very poor man few
years ago, is now said to be worth
$780, 100000 or more, e. accumulated
within a few years of time Henry
is still grinding out izzies and rak-
ing in the pennies.
The number of our plutocrats is so
great that their combined wealth is
staggering, and still they multiply in
both numbers and wealth.
The war brought enormous wealth
TO this country, but the great major

But there is such a thing as TOO
BIG BUSINESS.
When a concern reaches proportions
where it can dominate everything in
its line and regulate prices without
regard to competition or the law of
supply and demand, it ceases to be a
national asset and becomes instead
burden to the people.
1t is too big to be safe.
If men could take their wealth to
heaven and enjoy it there we could
understand why they continue to a.
mass enormous fortunes which they
can not possibly spend.
The great wealth that thus passes
into the hands Of a limited number
simply reduces the amount in the
hands of the mass Of the people. AS
the few become bloated the many be-
come emaciated
Congress should no longer shirk its
plain duty to the people. 1t should
place a limit upon the income which
any one man may enjoy. 1t should
! confscate every dollar of that income
| above the limit in the form of taxa
tion and thus reduce the burden which
rests SO heavily upon the shoulders of
people who can i'll afford it.
Big business should be protected
and regulated
Too big business should be prohi-
bited.

that the laborsaving devices often in

luxurious great deal remaining of

IL is rare, for instance, to find an
american girl who cannot cook md
cook we'll. Such ignorance of cooking
as is shown by many English girls is
unknown in America Why? Because
IL Is necessary for the American girl
TO cook. More often than not there
IS NOBODY else to do it. In any case
she could never depend on regular
supply of service even if she could
