the different societies in the city on
which the emblems were very nicely
displayed in plants and flowers of
various colors were bare and the Gus
tom had become neglected. Now at
this time I think it would be very fit
tin if the lodges and societies would
take the matter up and request the
park board to lay out these plots and
have them attended to during the sum-
mer and that the said lodges and So
cieties would each pay the expense of
doing it, also donate small fund to
pay what extra expense there would
be in tending to and keeping the
plots in good shape.
This would beautify the park and be
pleasure to the many thousands who
will from time to time visit the park
At the same time it would be no ex-
pense to the city. / trust the members
and officers Of the orders will take
the matter up at once and petition or
write the park board officials, as now
is the time it must be done if at all.

Beautiful" and nifty, Thrifty Val

Chautauqua will bring great crowds
to our city. Help us to live up to
the name Getty Beautiful Clean up
your place first, then take walk
down the alley and see what the other
fellow has done. Don't be afraid to
call his attention to his lack of CO.
operation. Do your part first and
then ask your neighbor to do his part.
Let's get busy couple Of days and
then we will invite the public to in
spect our alleys. Let us merge our
Valley City business spirit with our
civic spirit. and note the change. Let's
go folks, all for beautiful and clean

WELSH, WHAT YOU THINK Of
THISOVITH?

With S5OO,OO0 in their purses ana
s250,O0O worth of jewels, 200 Rus,
SLAMS who arrived in the United
States seven years ago as poor I'M
migrants, sailed for their native
country a few days ago, expecting
tn snend the remainder of their days
in ease and comfort. -,
For several years the Russians
have been employed in the Lynn, IN
dustrial plants and they attribute
their prosperity to the gen.
eral better conditions prevailing IN
this country over their own and by
the further fact that they lived in a
frugal manner and practiced thrift:
All their cash was in American gold
or gold certificates. At the present
rate of exchange their savings OF
from $4,000 to $4,000 each entitie
them, they believe, to be called rich
and to live in affluence in their home
circls. #& .'t"' '
Admitting that the Russians have
picked out a poor place in which to
spend their money, this must be SAID
for them: they did save money when
most of US, with larger incomes, were
bulling the silk shirt market.
Oh, sure, these Russian fish eaters
did not approach the American stan
dard of living. Our people would not
think of going through the discom-
forts and deprivations that they went
through. !
Still, what does it profit man to
maintain the observation-disclosures

spend it all, can't save , cent stand
ard of living and die in the poor
house?
And anyhow they did squander a
quarter Of million for jewels.
If, during the seven years the Rus
slams were making their "pile" you
had regularly bought a United States
Treasury Savings stamp Costing
from $4.12 in January to $4.23 in
December) you would not have, spent
what all those samps mean today!
Have theses Russians taught a les
son that many Of US need to learn?
"Yeski" is the correct answer.

this by no means sincludAs as I antici-
pate, all the appropriations for which
you will be solicited during this session.
Against these required and desired dis
bursements there will be an. estimated
revenue, based upon all present tax levies
including the present state tax; s-of ap-
proximately $24,000,000. The resulting
unprecedented deficit should cause careful
reflection.
Some Of the Causes Of This Condition.
May suggest some Of the causes Of
this marked change in the states finances
and the situation surrounding this I'M
precedented rise in our expenditures and
resulting deficits.
During the great war We in Connec-
ticut, together with the rest of the
world have become accustomed to think
and talk in millions, where formerly II
was thousands or multiples of thous.
ands. Costs of necessary commodities
and cost of construction have Increases
vastly and beyond reasonable powers Of
forecast. The willingness of the taxpay.
ers, stimulated by patriotic enthusiasm
and coupled with unusual profits and in.
comes to pay excessive taxes has ere
ated in some minds a; false impression Of
our taxation possibilities. And the nee
essity during and subsequent to the wal
period for immediate and extraordinary
expenditures, together with the difficulty
of securing trained accountants for re:
cording such expenditures, has led III
| far from the IDEAL, and, in some case
! from the proper or prescribed method:
! of handling public monies. -
Methods Of Relief. )
A policy of retrenchment and of, econ
omy, is imperative at this time.
Improvement and return to a sound fl
nanciaI condition can come only by re
-stricting expenditures. and by saving
and economies both in appropriating mon
| les and in handling and expanding them
| AS the first logical steps in this direc
| ton recommend:
-, First. Any new projects or undertak
irgs involving new construction, and in
cidental thereto new appropriations o
the state monies, should be deemed mad
Visable at the present time, and shout
not meet with your approval The sam
is true of extensions to building wor
alre ady undertaken or CONSTRUCTED. Ex
ceptions should be considered only wher
the institution. in question cannot operat
without additional financial aid or wher
added monies. are absolutely necessary
protect physical property at present in
state of incompletion, and which ma
be subject to damage or deterioration
left ir its present state. e.. =. --.-.
I Second. Revenues should be increase
by any fair means. In this connection
stand opposed to increasing those ia
levies which are already highly burden
some under existing federal and sta,
tax laws, and where the argument .fc
Esuch increase. is that such taxes al
most easily levied or most readily. CO
