A little more work and a little
more self denial seems to be still
on the bill of fare for the Ameri-
can people. But, say, folks, If we
had to assume just wee mite OF
the frugality and hardships our
forefathers underwent when they
were making thin a luxuriant
place to live in we might grunt
and groan and wall, but don't
you think we'd all be better off?
Why not try to grin and bear it,
be less selfish and consider more
the welfare of our neighbor than
our own unnecessary pleasures.
One citizen expressed it the 9th
er day when he said, the trouble
is we have grown so accustomed
to luxuries that we now consider
them necessities.

In one of our greatest cities
there is family composed of the
parents, one little boy about six
years of age, and baby. The
husband is a musician, and it is
possible that you have listened to
his banjo on your Victrola. Re-
Gently number of friends were
invited to Sunday dinner.
When seated at the table the hus-
band quietly raised his hand. A
sudden hush ensued. Neither of
the parents are over jealous at
PENDANTS at church, and the hus-
band can swear like a pirate. The
guests were plainly puzzled. Then
a tiny voice was heard, asking
God to bless the food and the
parents and the baby brother
and the friends who were guests
of the home. AS we drift from
the custom and things that thi:
incident implies we lower oul
civilization. AS we adhere Il
them we climb.

to what end? The dear Amerl-
can farmer who raises wheat Will
be told that this win help him in
competition against foreign
wheat growers, and when ne is
so told he should ask just how 1t
viii help-get all the details.
Considering that this nation Is
an exporter and not an importer
of wheat, it is question in the
minds of many thinking people
whether the American tariff on
wheat win in any way affect the
price Of that commodity. Most
of the farmers are arriving at the
conclusion that it will not.

The cultivation of fraternal
spirit has much to do with the
success of a local community.
Where the population is limited
the indifference or selfishness of
a single individual exerts a de-
pressing effect upon others, and
this attitude of pessimism in time
permeates the whole community.
Men and women who really de-
sire to advance the interests Of
themselves and their neighbors
find it difficult to work to advan-
tage when disaffedted ones are
continually throwing a wet
blanket over every new project
that is proposed. Investigation
and discussion are both com
mendable and desirable, but pes
simistic remarks and pulling
back in the community harness
are on a par with a balky horse.
They render more or less futile
the efforts of those who would
push forward to ultimate
achievement. A community of
brothers working together in har-
mony is far better than one of
opponents pulling in opposite
directions.

OUR GREATEST PRIVILEGE.

Don't neglect the children.
They may not exert any great
influence upon the community
life of today, but in a few short
years they will be directing the
affairs of the community while
we will be looking on-or will
have passed on.
AS we train them today, so will
they be then. And as they are
then, so will we of today be
judged. We cannot escape our
duty. 1t is plain and squarely be-
fore us. We ray shirk it, and
squirn out of it, but in the end
we must pay, even in person or
IN memory. The child does not
come into the world Of its own
volition, and it should not be left
to its own devices. That which
we create we should protect and
foster and bring as near a state
of perfection as is humanity pos,
sible. Nothing else will suffice
in the eyes Of Him who created
mankind.
The home without children is
not without duty to the child
rem of other homes They form
an integral part of the commun-
ity, and as such are entitled to
the cooperation and encourage
ment of the remainder of the
community.
The child may not say much in
the presence of its elders, but it
sees much and remembers much
of what it sees and hears. Thus
are its impressions formed, and
these are the beacon lights that
beckon it on to a life of honor or
of ignomy. Remember the days
of thy youth. =
