The disturbing thing Is the constant
discovery that earlier ages were equal
to us in what we may broadly call
moral progress. The minimum wage
in ancient Babylon, the emphasis on
justice in the Egyptian code. the same
standard of personal conduct every
where, the concern of the gods for
righteousness, the full democracy Of
Athens and Rome, the beginning of
the enfranchisement OF women, the
privileges of the Roman workers, the
complete scheme of free education, the
trade combinations. 1t GER

more advanced than we are In 1921

WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILES ARE BUILT
BUICK WILL BUILD THEM

43 county associations in Wisconsin
and more are being formed. These
local associations, their officers as
sert, derive benefits in some of the
following ways-money saved by CO.
operative buying of supplies, Is to
900; money made by selling honey
at more uniform prices; united &C
ton in fighting foul brood; and much
learned by meeting the fellow bee
keepers often.
It is expected that the bookkeep-
ers of southern Iowa county will also
be included in the organization.
Wisconsin now ranks among the
leading states in honey production.
This commanding position has been
attained largely by the many local
associations, making a united effort
for better bee keeping.

LIFE INSURANCE

7 IFE insurance Is one of the great
- est blessings of mankind.
That 1t has gained the approval and
support of nearly all men of wisdom
and prominence in the country Is
just cause for rejoicing. No one must
be very old to recall the days when
large number of people believed life
insurance something which required
one to die to win. Today. 1t Is looked
upon as offering an exceptional OppOr-
tunity for saving, as well as protecting
dear ones while men and women labor
to provide the necessaries of life.
Life Insurance companies state
ments Of distributions to pollcyholders
or their beneficiaries usually are con-
sidered dull reading. But they would
become intensely interesting TO every
Intelligent person If he were to give
them sufficient study and thought.
Viewed either as a SAFE means of saw
ing or as legitimate means of pro-
tectIng the welfare of wives or chill
dren, the cold figures take on new
meaning which ought to Increase the
joy along life's pathway.
Contradicting the old belief that life
insurance was "d!e to win" PROPOSE
ton, the statement of one of the coun-
try's biggest companies shows that this
corporation during 1920 paid out more
than twice as much to living policy
holders as 1t did to beneticiaries of
those who had died. The exact figures
are ST9,395,S3s paid TO living policy
holders and $50 ,453,75s to beneflciares.
The work of selling life insurance
isn't nearly as disagreeable as It used
TO be- But there are stirl great many
who should carry insurance who do
not. md others who should carry more
than they do who lnck the courtesy or
good taste to treat insurance statesmen
with respect. Nevertheless. the sales
men. comprising valuable army In
the United States, are brave pody
and. to their credit 1t may be said. are

rowed money than ever before in
the history of the country.
This raised the storm. The
farmers said they should have
more credit at any cost. 1t was
said that they were willing to have
the dollar enter the mark and
ruble class. The federal reserve
board stood by the gold standard
and insisted it should be main
tanned inviolate. The result was
the formation Of the agricultural
bloc in congress, a group of men
determined to change the law re-
garding farm credits and other
farm matters.
The country's belt is still drawn
tight, but it is loosening and be-
ing gradually filled out to its
former proportions. Also the gold
standard still stands. The vast
volume OF loans is being paid
back steadily and the national cur
rency has a strong gold backing.
But now has come the eXpir-
alton of Governor Harding's term.
The farmers are determined that
he shall not be given a chance
to handle the situation again as
he did during the depression.
Bankers and other business men
the country, who de-
sire protection of the gold stand
ard. are equally solicitous that he
remain in office. The decision is
up OF the president.
