BOOSTERS

Did you ever stop to think
what a grand thing the commun-
ity spirit is? How contagious it
is and how proud we should be Of
our city? Do you realize if we
would back up this pride by our
loyalty that we could be just
twice as proud when we got
thru? And that is what we
should all do.
If Jack, the little scamp, has
worn out those shoes you bought
him we are going to suggest that
you buy your next pair in Ken
newick. If you are contemplate
ing building or improving, Sc
cure your materials in Kenne-
wick and contract kenewick la
Dor. If you are not combining
all your purchases to this city,
START TODAY. Try this a
while and see how good it feels
to look yourself in the glass
each morning and be able to say,
''Howdy, Old Boosterw
To tell you the truth, if you
could buy your merchandise at
SOC on the dollar away from Ken
newick you still cannot afford
either as property owner or as
a working person-to remove
that SOC from the community.
When you do you are knock
ing the props from under your
own property values, undermin-
ing the financial structure that
forms our industrial existence,
and thus remove from the work.
ing homes of our community
just that much sustenance, COM
fort and happiness.
We want to burn this in deep.
You cannot measure so-called
money saving against the tear
ing down process that involves
the community from whence it
comes. Therefore keep your
money at home by spending it at
home.
And to make times good, prop
erty values high and employment
for all let normal business
transactions prevail without a
doubt or misgiving. Buy what
you need freely. Money put in
circulation comes back in wages,
crop receipts, investments and in
Prosperity.
H0arding dollars is game we
should all discourage. Spending
them foolishly is another mat
ter. But purchasing the require
ments of living, indulging in rea-
sonable amusement and sane in
vestments spells progress and fl
nancial success for all. Setting
Tight" is a pastime of the doubt
er who contributes nothing to the
prosperous conditions which can
be made always to prevail.
Hard times exist most in the
minds of pessimists. Take your
self from this class. Wear the
smile of optimism, show COM
mercial courage and faith and
keep boosting. By so doing we
will have civic success, personal
success and a community to be
proud of.

WAR DEPARTMENT
PLAYS LARGE PART
IN CIVILIAN LIFE

The secretary of war, John w.
Weeks, smiled broadly when he was
asked for an article about the war
department from peace viewpoint
a story that would tell what the de-
partment does for the welfare Of the
country in times of peace. says Abby
Gum Baker in the Christian Herald.
But the war department was Gre
ated primarily for military purposes, -
said the secretary. with a somewhat
puzzled air. Still, there is a good
deal that might be said of the non
military activities of this big office
even though the war department has
not arrived at the time to beat its
swords into plowshares. The depart
ment was established in 1889, and you
must not forget that the first con
gress provided by law for a war de
partment even before it created the
treasury, which illustrates the import
ance attached by the founders of oul
republic to matters of national de
tense. Soon after it was created. con

Eight Miles A Second
By Air, Is Possibilit,

An airplane with the speed of 500
miles an hour is an early possibility
says the assistant chief of our army
air service. Then a business man can
leave New York early in the morning,
fly to England, have lunch, transact
business and return home before dark.
Europe will then be our next door
nelghbor. Flying at this speed makes it
necessary to supply air to passengers
and crew, as the plane must rise so
high as to travel in rarified atmos.

craft are now being experimental
with by the army. An enclosed cabin

for the breeze to blow a persons head
off when he travels 1-3 miles sec

mighty uncomfortable if he wasn't
sheltered from it. In another gener
alton travelling by plane will be as
common as motor cars are today.
