TO MUCH EXPENSE

There is complaint over the levyng of the
sary tax for financing the soldier bonus This affords
an opportunity for the periodical explosions which we
require to let off surplus steam.
But our explosions should be turned upon different
subject
There is too much waste i'll the public service. This
waste is in the form of man poweror perhaps it might
be more appropriate to term it barnace power.

employees feel that they doing noby by their country

slders his days work at in the afternoonand not

STRONG ARM TACTICS

Strong arm tactics seldom win out in the end They
may triumph for tme but sooner later the one who
uses them comes to grief and is promptly kicked to the
rear.
You have noticed of course that in an argument the
strong arm advocate in his estimation is always
right and the other fellow is completely wrong There
is no debatable ground for him.
4ou perhaps have also noticed that it is generally the
other fellow who is in the right because other fellows
are invariably men who reason things out before they
begin to make noise.
The strong arm man depends upon his tongue work
and his bull dog tenacity
The other fellow depends UPON his brain work and
upon the ability of the public to understand calm and
common reasoning.
These are things it might be well to remember in the
training of the children of this town.
