Editorial G
The LiMputians
Scatter

President Hardings tribute to the
farmer, punctuated with pungent side
swipe at the Agricultural bloc, brings
sharply to the. front the fact that it is still
wise to speak softly but carry a club
Much may be said in opposition to legis-
lative combinations, but it is sixty per cent
theory based on the assumption of the
perfect state. The fact is we are passing
through very practical phase of life. and
it is equally clear that had not the farmer
demonstrated that at last he means busi-
ness he would still remain the sleeping
CULVER with the vast army of financial
Lilliputians stepping all over his great
body. Peculiarly We never have heard
voiced much of a protest against the fin
ancial bloc. loosely referred to as Wall
Street. Intangible as an entity, it always
has managed in some mysterious way to
marshall its forces into compact formation
whenever helpful legislation was required.
The railroad bloc and the other blocs that
have worked in the shadow now profess
to be amazed that the farmer should tres
pass on their property, but the giant has
been sleeping long enough. He is just be-
ginning to stretch himself before he gets to
his feet. Quite naturally the frightened
Llliputians with their dollars and their
box cars and other playthings scatter for
cover. fearing the big fellow will tread on
their toes. How blind to their own interest
they are. The farmer never will step on
anyone's toes. He is the heart of the ma
ton, and his greater strength can only
mean swifter coursing Of the blood of
prosperity through the arteries Of Amer
lea. There could be no Wall Street. there
could be no railroads. there could be no
civilization, were it not for the tiller of the
soil. Every American should rejoice at
his awakening. President Harding has
said truly that the agricultural problem
Is the nations concern. Perhaps that is
why 1t may not be Il bad idea to have the
nation really represented in the Congress
set up by the people to guide the country
to prosperity and happiness.

Honey Philosophy for '22

Isn't is funny how some folks study
the science of being miserable in a world
filled with good things. If fellow had
potatoes in his garden an would rather
go hungry than dig 'em up. everybody
would laugh at him, an by an by he'd
dig. Then he'd feel better. Why not dig
the good things out Of life an throw aside
the weeds. They'd all rot If they were
dumped into the sunlight. and maybe
from thcm would grow something better.
You can always get crop If you sew right
an work up the ground now an then.
There's one thing cortain-you can't buck
old Dame Nature so YOU might us well
fall in line an watch your step The old
lady insists that eventually everyone must
be happy. an IL eventually why not now?

Danger to Our
Merchants

Our local merchants might wisely give
some consideration to the recommendation:
of the National Commission of the Assoc
lated Advertising Clubs of the world,
which recently passed resolution strong
ly favorng the establishing of q c. o. d.
postage permit plan. Under the Ian,
direct by mail advertisers may send out re-
turn envelopes and cards to prospects with
permit notice printed in place of a stamp.
The return matter can then be mailed and
the permit holder pay the postage upon
delivery. Merchants in towns such as ours
are likely to be lured into a dangerous
trap if they permit such plan to go thru
without protest. They may see only that
they may use the scheme themselves, but
direct by mail advertising is as limited as
it is ineffective in the smaller communities.
On the other hand, such plan would
mean the most sweeping invasion of the
country by the mail order houses that ever
has been known. The mail order men
would save hundreds of thousands of dol
lars, which could then be put into inten-
sve campaigns to take trade and money
from the home town. The merchants know
they can serve people quite as well and as
economically as any mail order house In
the world, and that the buyer can actually
see the articles being bought and get
prompt delivery, but the catalogue offers
of the mail order specialists are painted
in alluring colors, and when they can be
put out without the danger of waste for
lost stamps affixed, local trade will
dwindle in every community.
This whole matter will rest in the
hands of the new Postmaster General, and
if the merchants are wise they will lose
no time in calling his attention to the
gravity of such ruling so far as local
trade is concerned.
Merchants in several towns undoubt-
edly will take this matter up, and it would
not hurt to add our protest to the others.
The merchants can stand open competi-
ton from the mail order men, but they
should not be subjected to unfair advan-
tage. The money spent at home circulaes
and returns to the spender. When it goes
out of town It goes into the nav of the
giant corporations that have little use for
small communities except what they can
get out of them.
