SURE THEY KNOW

There is merchant in our town
Who thinks he's wondrous wise;
He SCOTS at those who spend hard
cash
Their goods to advertise.
He mocks the .ad man to his face,
you're talking thru your hat,
Cause everybody everywhere
Knows where my store is at!
OF course most people vaguely know
That Jones conducts store
Out of the beaten paths where goes
The cream of trade no more.
But what he sells in his small place,
What goods he' has on the shelf
They cannot say, because old Jones
Keeps that all to himself!
And that is why the blinded man
Has troubles now, and woe,
And why his sales are less than they
we're,
Some twenty years ago.
Sure everybody knows where Jones
Sits glum in his easy chair.
They also know where the graveyard
is,
But they are not flocking there!

FRIDAY. DECEMBER %, 1921


Harold Bell Wright, the noted author has re-
Gently issued new book, entitled Helen of The
Little House. which deals with the problems of
capital and labor something after the manner of
the book If Christ Came to Chicago" Mr..
Wright gets all angles Of the situation pretty
clearly, and when does that, it means that
the interests Of both are very much alike and
that the success of both depends upon close re-
alization of each others rights duties and coopera
ton together When that is done, the labor agitat-
or in the book and those that we find closer at
home, can do no damage to either employees or
employers 1t is the improperly managed labor
organizations and absolutely heartess labor en-
ploying concerns that make the trouble and Meth
er minority element should be allowed to create
conditions that are harmful to the great majority.
The mother in Adrian Mich, now trial for
the murder through neglect, of the newborn child
of her unmarried daughter may have committed
an offense against the law of man, but if allow
ance is made for the burden of grief and shame
that caused the crime, no jury can deal very sew
erly with her. If by any chance it should, do
not believe that it is going to affect her standing
great deal when she leaves this world for the
