Come on Chums!'' said Billy.
Let's go walk over those %squealing

' And Billy. Stubby and Button turn
ed and walked over the freaks again
and again. and though they were
struck. and Billy's hair was pulled and
the freaks punched him. he walked
over them just the same. The Giant
sat UP and got ready to give Billy a
terrific blow with his big fist. He could
not stand up, as both legs were pinned
to the floor by having the dwarf sit
ting or me-. and the whole bunch
resting on~the other. Billy walked
along just as IL he did not see that
the giant was prepared for him, and
when within three feet Of shin, he
gave a spring and jumped clear over
his head, and Stubby and Buttons fol

WHERE THE MONEY GOES.

The Times-Dispatch has sugges-
tive editorial under the above cap
ton.
Here is the editorial:
The National Bureau of Economic
Research, which is representative of
all the clements in the American i'm q.
dustrial scheme-labor unions, farm
ers, bankers, engineers, publishers
and othcrs-has recently made pub
lie tn results obtained in the SUI ,cy
of business and Industrial conditions
in the United States conducted by it.
The report is enlightening, in that
it affords opportunity for the revis
ion of many opinions based upon
popular business fallacies.
For the purpose of avoiding errors,
its Investigations are conducted il.
duplicate, one serving rs a cneck
against the other. One item in it's
recent report covers the question OF
how the net value of industrial prod
ucts is disposed of rs between wages
and salaries on one hand and man
agement and property on the other.
1t is shown that in 1909, 68.7 per
cent of the combined net value proc
uct Of mines, factories and land
transportation went to pay wages
and salaries, while 31.3 went for tn.
cost OF management and returns o,.
the use of property. By 1918 the
proportion was changed to 77.3 and
22.7 per cent, respectively. The sur
vey of these three great branches of
industry is thought to reflect condi
tons in the American industrial
world well enough to justify the
statement that in this country
three-fourths of value of industrial
products and service goes to rne
wage and salary earners MS distin.
guished from managers and stock
holders-in other words. the so-cun
ed Capitalists"
When from the one-fourth income
that goes to ownership is deducted
that portion which is devoted To i'm
provement and expansion of INDUS
try IN order that it may be kept 60
ing it will be seen that this proper
tlon Is very materially lessened.
Then, deduct the sums that mus, =.
set aside to meet existing high taxes,
and one can very readily figure out
why there is not much incentive to
revival of industrial enterprise SO
long as wage schedules insist on re-
naming stationary at wartime lev
els.

EX-SOLDIER OF HORsEPEN ON

Dear Editor:-
Just few lines regarding the ex-

the war we fought to protect you,

Did the man that earned from five

did he loan it to the government?
If he had given it, the burden of tax
would not have been on. I think it

left you here to do your part. Did
you? Was your service voluntary OF
drafted to Uncle Sam? If you had
furnished Uncle Sam the service the
soldier did, the tax would not have
been so great. Was it your duty? Is
this our country? Do you appreciate
what the soldiers did for you? In
what manner? You never spent n
night in shell hole, nor hikcd all

IT MUST NOT HAPPEN AGAIN

There is no such thing as the
world standing STILL There is eithef
progress or retrogrcssion. Things
must move, and the movement is
either backward or forward. During
the world war ideas of various kinds
we're originated thick and fast. Some
of them prevailed and still live.
Some have fallen by the wayside.
One lesson which we have learned
in America is that as nation we
arc not invincblc, and that our re-
sources are not incxhaustible. We
have learned that with all our terri
tory, resources and wealth, we are
not immune from industrial depres-
sion and there is a limit to the liza.
tional pocl1etbool.
We have learned also that as indi-
viduals we can claim very little men,
tai OF physical superiority over och
or nations. In fact, reliable reports
of physical examinations leave some
doubt of our physical equality.
The lessons thus learned, however
have not been lost. Public health OF :.
CARNATIONS ali over the country
have organized and are still organic
ing for the suppression of prevent
able diseases and for better stan
dard of physical fitness among our
people.
When the body of fallen soldier
ls returned from France it fills the
whole community with sadness, and
they exclaim, at must not happen
again." When the victim of tube, i.
culosis, syphilis OF typhoid is buried
we shed our tears and offer our
floral offerings and go home to con
tinue life in the same old way.
Not so with the public health or
carnations, they go back with n re
newed determinations to educate the
public to the slogan at must not hap
