Old Hard Facts

Gaar Williams, native of this city, in one of
his cartoons in the Chicago Tribune, depicts a
college graduate standing at the side of a grind
stone, with Mr.. Hard Facts telling him, Nov
all you gotta do is t hold your nose on that for
forty or fifty years."
Mr.. Williams points out valuable truth,
which some graduates and large number of
others who never saw the inside of college
building ignore, namely that you cannot pro-
coed through life without working hard.
The fallacy of big pay with little work" has
taken possession of many who fondly imagine
that the good things in life are to be had for the
asking, and that work is non-essential No
college degree, and no harrangue of a soapbox
orator, will be able to relegate work to the rear
The necessity of hard work is what Mr.. Williams
depicts it to be, "Old Hard Facts"

of yesterday If you do not believe it, inter

Night for Two Years.
Mr.. Julius Mayer. 1890 East Fifth ST.
says in his own home paper, the Day
ton News: For two years my bladder
caused me to get up many times at
night and too frequent in the day. Aft
sr taking a few doses of Initiated
Buchu, my bladder works perfectly
normal and I can sleep all night"
Initiated Buchu acts on the kidneys
and bladder as Epson Salts do on the
bowels. You will be surprised at the
impurities which come from the blad-
der after taking few doses of Lithiat-
ed Buchu. It is not a patent medicine
as the formula is on the package The
tablets cost &c each. This price makes
it possible TO place in the formula sew
eral high priced drugs, which are use
full to give relief. 1t is not likely that
you have ever taken remedy similar
to this. Try a few doses for backache
scalding, scanty or high colored urine
and frequent desire at night.

Report Out New
Bill on Pay of
Army, Navy Service

Washington, Feb. 22-(By The A,
P)-The joint Congressional Service
Pay Commission completed its work
today and ordered favorably reported
to the House and Senate a bill pro-
viding a new basis of pay for the
personnel OF the army, navy, marine
service. coast guard, public health
service and the coast and goedetic
survey. The measure, it's trainers,
hope. will save the government ulti-
mately a total of $2S,600,00o annu-
ally in the pay of the six services,
based on the present strength of
each.
For the fiscal year 1923, the new
rate Of pay under the bill would re-
duce the total OF the budget for the
six services by approximately $12,-
10000. according to an estimate by
Chairman Wadsworth. In the five
years thereafter. a further reduction
OF $o,4SO,000 would be accomplished
annually providing the strength of
the services remained unchanged.
After that time, the ultimate" saw
ing would be s2S.600,0Oo a year, &C.
cording to figures which the COM
mission will submit to the two
Houses OF Congress when the meas
ure Is formally reported.
II feel that this measure en-
bodies the most scientifically drawn
pay rate that this government ever
had" said Chairman Wadsworth.
1T not alone represents economy, but
carries a program that we believe
will work to the distinct advantage
of the services affected as we'll as
the government"
The proposed pay arrangement is
based on a combination OF length of
service with the rate increases in
cident to promotion. Committee
members said that in some in
stances there would be a sharp cut
for younger men in the services, but
these cuts, it was believed. would be
more than offset by provisions pro-
tecting the personnel IN times of
slow promotions.
