WHY NOT STABILIZE
PROSPERITY?

If we can find it, there's some
way to stabilize industrial condi-
tions and make times reasonably
prosperous continuously instead of
having hard times and prosperity
follow each other like the spokes
OF a revolving wheel.
When it comes to money-mak-
ing, life is either feast or
Canine. There seems to be no
halfway point, over any extend
cd period of time.
Colonel Leonard w. Ayres, stat
istician, has recently shown that
in the last SO years two out OF
every five years were periods of
serious business depression.
It's about time we took this up
as our basic problem of economics.
From it, sprout nearly all the
other serious problems.
A favorite chant of the business
experts is that business runs in
cycles-up and down, like waves.
Prices rise to a certain high point,
then topple and slump far below
normal, then up, again down, and
so on, generation after generation.
Buisenss failures, industrial ae-
tivity and all other branches of
our common system Of earning

4 living" rise and fall in similar
cycles or waves.
The economists point out that
I'll this is following a natural law
of cycles-that depression follows
prosperity the same as winter fol-
lows summer.
The industrial system, however,
which we have permitted to en-
slave us, is not natural system,
speaking in broad sense. 1t is
a system entirely created by man.
And, therefore, it should be en-
trey responsive to man, absolute
ly under his control.
Certain natural elements creep
in, such as crop failures or abnor-
mally large crops. But these could
be taken care Of some way. Ger
tainly they should not disrupt our
whole economic machinery.
Panics often are blamed on over
production. But over-production
in the last analysis, is an impos-
sibiity. The real trouble is that
our system of distribution breaks
down.
Maybe the permanent elinlina-
lion of hard times would require
g.gant.c undertakings by the ma
tional and state governments. That
is, giving the armies of unemployed
work at road-making, irrigation
and other engineering projects.
0 rthe solution may be in stabil-
izing the value of the dollar. Again,
it might be in periodical price
regulation.
Think it over Have you a plan?
Think this over, also: We have
become so accustomed to hard
times as a reaction from prosper
ity, that maybe we have hypno-
tizcd ourselves into expecting
them. And, by expecting, we
create depression-by hunting our
cyclone cellars before a real fun
nel-cloud rises over the horizon.

Georgia people ought to en-
courage Georgia enterprises in
every way. When you go to store
insist on getting the Georgia prod

The dairy cow is a real gold
mine. She is famed as cash pro-
ducer; her product can be mar
keted every day. That is, perhaps,
one reason why the dairy COW is
our best friend in time of adver-
sity or in prosperity. In this day
of tight money and high interest
rates, cash is appreciated, so it is
a good time to take account of the
good work of the cow. Study a
little more of her needs and re-
quirements. Use her now and con-
tinue to use her after she pulls
you out of the depression.

WHAT REPRESSION DO YOU
MAKE ON OTHER PEOPLE?

What impression do you make on
other people-particulatly when
you are introduced to strangers?
And what is your attitude or
front" in trying to get something
YOU want?
Heres a tip along that line,
from Clemenceau. He pauses in a
speech and says: Il viii tell you
that I am rather timid-slightly.'
Judging from the arguments he
starts, slightly is right.
But powerfully effective on an
audience is Clemenceau 5 conf
dental admission that he feel a
trife timid. In this age of rush
'em-of -thcir-feet" aggrcssivcncss,
timidity and shyncss arc rare quail
ties.
As in Clcmcnccau's case, they
appeal for affection, for attention,
for respect.
While shyness is rare among the
bulk of people, it is becoming
cutie the fashion among the shrcwd
and cunning, to affect an air Of
modesty and meekness.
Once the speaker forcefully
thumpcd his fist on the table and
declared, q tell you so-and-so and
/ know what I'm talking about.a
The same speaker now says, in
effect: "My great reputation for
wisdom probably is an over-csti-
mate of my humble self. But,
from all l can learn after patient
and thorough investigation, it
seems to me" etc, etc.
The psychology of this is that it
appeals to reason-and to the
hearers vanity, by deluding him
into the belief that he is asked to
pass judgment. )
The "know-it-all' attitude, back
cd by "rush-em-off- their-feet" tao
ties, breeds resentment and even
disdain.
Statesmen, first to sense a change
in popular psychology, are shifting
from aggressiveness to an oily,
cunning approach" to what they're
after.
In counting a woman, a man
makes faster progress by gentle
ness, smooth tact and the shrinking
that attracts sympathy. AS soon
as a man falls in love, ne begins
moaning to his lady-love, that he
has had sad past, more trouble
than his share, and that no one
seems to understand and sympa-
thize with him.
The English are VIGOROUSLY sue
cessful in diplomacy-because
they handle situations with velvet
gloves and soft words, more eff
fectivc than buster, threats and
force.
You cannot get sympathy by
waving an ak. But you can get it
by pointing mournfully to the ak
and admitting that you dread to
use it, Lincoln said something
about molasses catching more flies
than vinegar. He should have

LIMESTONE QUARRIES TO BE DEVELOPED

EUGENE, Ore.,t Nov. 16.-E1tenslVe development of limestone quarries ana the erection of a large cement factory at Grants Pass, Ore, near here, are 1n- dicated. it is believed locally by the fact that the Beaver Portland Cement Company has advertised for bids for the construction of a standard gauge railway three miles long and 5000 feet of tramway leading from the Cali fornia and Oregon Coast railway to the company's quarries in the noun tains southwest of Grants Pass.
 Backers of the project have an nounced that cement plant will be erected somewhere in the vicinity and have indicated that Grants Pass or a point near there, would be the logical location for such plant. The cost of the enterprise Is estimated at $1,500,000.
 The new railroad Is to be known as the Marble Mountain railroad. The survey for it has been completed, and right of way purchased. Accord ing to representatives, of the company, the railroad and tramway will be com pleted early in 1923.
 An electric power plant, construc- tion of which has already been started, is included in the plans of the com pany.
 The new railroad will open up an almost unlimited supply of 98 per cent pure calcium carbonate. The lime area is known to be over 28 acres in ex- tent. It is estimated that 30,000,000 tons are in this area. The deposit Is exposed vertically to depth of 750 feet.

 There is in the editorials an under current of pique and hurt pride, how ever, that Mexican participation is even in question. Fl Universal re- gently stated that eff Mexico is not present at Santiago, the congress will not have full significance and will serve to create a feud between Spanish-America and Washington" " The newspaper says it believes the Latin countries will eventually de- mand that Mexico be admitted as an equal.
