Charles and Mary Lamb.

Charles Lamb, speaking Of his life
with his sister Mary. after these tw"
gentle and sensitive souls had lived
together and for each other for twenty
years, once said: I'VE two house to-
gether, old bachelor and old maid, In
sort Of double singleness; while l..
for one, find no disposition to go out
upon the mountains with the kings
rash offspring to bewail my celibacy.
And we agree very well, too; but once
when I spoke to her In kinder voice
than usual she burst into tears and
said was much altered flor the

reads stories with plenty Of life In

NOT A .ONE-MAN
AFFAIR

A community newspaper is the
property of the community in which
it is published, and not an organ in
which one man airs his views. Every
person has, or should have, a per-
sonal interest in it; for at some
time, and in many cases many
times, it tells of happenings that
directly affect you. The big daily
papers tell stories of affairs of ma
tion-wide interest, but community
paper is published to set forth the
doings of particular community.
The community is as active and
as good as the paper in most cases
and the paper is generally as alive
and as good as the community which
it serves. If the day. ever comes
and we sincerely hope it will
when people take a genuine interest
in community paper and cooper
ate with it, every one of US, and the
community for a good many miles
in every direction, are bound to
profit.

NO TIME FOR
THE PESSIMIST-

The pessimist we have always
with us. On every hand, in every
age, are men who delight to drag
a soapbox out into the streets OF
the world and cry out to all who
will listen that mankind is on the
highway to perdition. Sooner OF
later they are run down by traffic,
in which grewsome fate they find
complete vindication for their theo-
ries.
The world today has many vexa-
tious problems, but what is impor-
tant to note is that it has been
troubled gravely before. And it
has always come out, Scared, but
sound. Ever since shortly after the
dawn of things there have been an
archists and reactionaries and prof.
teers and greedy fellows of every
type, in every walk of life. They
are forgotten now, as the trouble
makers of today will be forgotten
IN another century. Man remem-
bers long those who serve him well.
Nations have been overthrown be-
fore, and empires have expired, but
mankind kept on developing through
the centuries his knowledge and
faith and power.
But there is no progress through
wishing. Man grows only by work
ing. 1t is not enough to have faith
that we shall come out of the valley
of our discomfort. We must have
faith that inspires work and the zeal
of precept that enthuses example.
If we would live again in the piping
times of peace and plenty we must
labor for them.

NEW
PATRONAGE

The way to do business in these
times is to seek new patronage and
thereby create greatly increased
volume of trade. You can add to
the scope of any business by solicit
ing more business for it. If you
ask for subscription for any good
cause which will benefit the public
you will get precious little money
merely by opening a place to re-
ceive it. But if you go around
from door to door you can get the
money. It is too expensive for any
local business man to send solicitors
from door to door in Winnemucca.
But the people feel so keenly the
desire to make good bargains that a
newspaper advertisement will per-
form the same function, and will
draw them to the stores that will
show their enterprise by making an
effort to sell their goods.
When the volume of trade is
built up in this way, than the cost
of doing business per article is re-
duced, and sales can be made at q
very low cost to the merchant.

FALSE
PRETENSES-

There are thousands of fake mail
order ads in this country, but none
more misleading than the ones
headed "Big Money Writing For the
Press" and make Money Address
ing Letters at Home" They are
misleading and bordering pretty
close upon false pretense. We feel
sure Winnemucca people know that
the newspapers of this country are
not so short of help or material
that it is necessary for mail-order
concerns to advertise for writer's.
And yet We expect that every now
and then someone in this locality
falls for the fake. There are few
people capable of writing the class
of matter for which newspapers and
magazine editors pay money, and
an alleged course in a school that
pretends to teach the business is
not the proper way to attain such a
point. Neither is it necessary for
any concern to send its letters or
circulars to hundreds of different
communities to have them addressed
when there are always hundreds of
men and women and boys and girls
right in this same city capable of
doing the work. Steer clear of
these fake concerns-there's a catch
in every ad. And some day Uncle
Sam is going to get busy and stop
lot of it.

Senator Pittman should call off
his dogs. If this is to be a cam
paign of villifcation and mudsling-
ing, twisting of words and mis-
representation of fact, it is well
that he should have the opportunity
of branding such tactics with his
sanction or disapproval, early in the
game, so that the people may know
what to expect. 1t is certain that
Republican candidates can better
withstand a mudslinging campaign
than can Pittman, as most people in
Nevada can testify.

often she rode behind him. AS she

There were some mighty easy riding
horses and some that were just the

During the month of January the

injured, according to an editorial in

". The toll was taken in 450 acci-

of life was recorded to the extent
of 2,729 traffic crashes. the editorial
states. representing loss Of $1,000
600.
"The mind is appalled, when the
full significance Of these figures is
understood says the editorial,
which is captioned "One January
record OF which Los Angeles is not
proud" at means that one in every

killed or injured in traffic accidents
alone in one month--and there are
twelve months in the year. Or. to
put It another way. one in every
