America Booming Along

TS HE man who is not sold on America is the man who does
not think. True we are an electric people, emotional to a
degree, and subject to all the annoyances OF temporary malad-
justment. Now we are joyous, viewing the world from the
mountain top, now we are wistful-in the depths OF the valley.
Clear vision, however, sees nothing but the steady advance.
While the blasts of winter have been chilling us, railroad traffic
has been increasing until it reached the heaviest point ever
experienced for the season. Panic talk about unemployment
has given place to grumbling about the inability to get help.
For the first time in the history of the country the cotton
spindles in use in January have exceeded 3~5,O0O,000. Textiles
are booming, iron and steel reports show enormous activity and
automobile manufacturers predict their biggest year.
Even with all of this improvement conditions are still I'M
settled. There is still talk of merchants travelling on danger
Gus ground. The Glooms contend that merchants will be caught
with high price merchandise on their shelves that the public will
decline to buy at the prices asked. More thar likely, however,
the alert merchandiser will have bought and banked his profits
before the Pessimists awaken to the fact that we are living and
working in the greatest country in the world.
We control practically all the gold in the world and what is
more important we are coming to set the moral and business
standards of the world, which summed up in plain honesty,
spells the certain reward of dominating progress.

TTTHING


ONE may imagine when
~ tithing is discussed that
one Is discussing a church ritual.
Of course, such an imagination
is born in ignorance. Tithing
is not a part of the ritual; if is
not statutory nor is it a bylaw.
The law requiring tithing is fun
damental. 1t is eternal. It ex-
listed long before the Ten Com
mandments were given, and
was written into the constitu-
ton of mans relationship to
God. 1t is not only fundamen-
tai, but is absolutely essential.
The first family If the universe
paid their 1.-THE Abraham paid his
1.-THE to Melchizedek, aud so on all
down the ages. Christ did not ab-
rogate. repeal nor suspend this
fundamental law and principle. He
required it; brought it over into the
dispensation of Grace, and it is re-
CURED of every Christian
If every church In the country
were composed of members who
were conscientious faithful tithers,
there would be enough money in the
treasures of the churches to evan
gelize the world and TO rectify every
church deficiency on earth. .
Every man in the church who to-
day refuses TO 1.-THE is a deliber-
ate robber. The benefits Of tithing
ought to settle the question. There
isn't any conscientious tither who
doesn't get more out of his nine
tenths than the robber gets out of
the ten-tenths that he unjustly and
unwisely and unfairly uses. There
isn't a tither on the page of history
that has ever been a begger or who
has been clothed in rags or who
has walked the streets in disgrace
and dishonor. Every mar who keeps
Gods box filled. and who is abso-
lutely honest with God has bestowed
upon him divine blessings, and he
enjoys that peace, prosperity and
happiness which comes through no
other source.

Wealth Is Spreading Out

L DOSE talk often catches the ear and sometimes facts take
l. a long time to catch up. 1t Is safe to say that most per-
sons have the impression that the rich are getting richer and
the poor poorer every day, that the concentration OF great wealth
is a growing menace that the United States must reckon with.
But the cold hard truth will not down. The Bureau OF Internal
Revenue shows that all classes Of Americans with incomes be-
low $4,000 show increases, while all classes having incomes in
excess of $4,000 show decreases, and this in spite OF the fact
that the mass income of SIS, 924, 639, 1855 in 1918, increased in
1920 to $23, 1876, 629,183.
When the figures for this year are at hand 1t will be found
that the poor are getting richer and the richer getting poorer
Figures show that 6439@o of the aggregate personal incomes
were in classes from 81 1000 to $4,000 a year and q 81 per cent
in classes from 81 900 to $4,000 Incomes in excess Of
$4,000 per year footed up only % 60 per cent.
These disclosures may be a sad blow to our agltators and long
haired political economists.
The plain truth is that the American IS living on a higher
standard than any man in the world, that his income Is far in
excess of the income of any other national. Ii he must pay
high prices he has the money TO buy and still have a little left
for a rainy day if he exhibits any of the characteristics OF thrift

DIRECTORS DONATE
FOR SERVICE ARCH
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HEADS
PROVIDE FUNDS FOR MEMOIR
IAL AT CITY PARK

Directors of the Moscow chamber
of commerce authorized donation
of 500 for the payment of the ma
terials to be used in the construction
of a Memorial arch to the Latah
county men who served in the World
War. The directors authorized the
donation at meeting Friday night.
The Memorial arch is to be con-
structed at the southwest entrance
of the park. Members of the Dudley
Loomis post of the American Legion
are ready to furnish the labor and
asked that the city furnish the money
for the materials. The donation Of
the chamber of commerce is consid
cred a general gift from practically
all of the business men of the city
in that the funds will be taken from
the general treasury of the chamber
of commerce. This view is taken in
that the membership of the chamber
includes practically all Of the bnsi-
ness men of the city.
The session of the directors was a
busy one. Bills for the month
amounting to $177 were ordered paid.
The intermediate rate question was
also discussed and communications
from other chambers of commerce
and rate associations read. Rolston
Butterfie1d was appointed as a COM
mittee of one to investigate the stu
alton and report at the next meeting
of the chamber.

Plan TO IMPROVE
LOCAL CEMETERY
HOLD PICNIC CLEANUP DAY
SHRUBBERY TO BE TRIMMED,
sDRIVEWAYS GRAVELED

Plans are under way by the Ladies
Cemetery society, OF which Mrs. Je-
rome ]. Day is president, looking 'to
an extensive Identification program
TO be carried out the coming summer
- q move toward making the Moscow
cemetery one of the well-kept ceme-
teries of the Inland Empire. THE To-
cation Of the cemetery is ideal, but
In recent years, because of lack of
available funds, the trees and shrub
berry and the driveways have not had
sufficient care.
Arrangements have been made
with Dean F. G. Miller of the school
of forestry at the University of Ida
hot and Professor C. C. Vincent of the
horticultural department, to have
students from these departments
trim the trees and shrubbery prop
erly. The plans also call for the
grave1ing of the approach and drive
ways, which have not been grayeled
for many years.
Another Improvement planned is to
sell the old chapel, which is never
used, and have it removed and in its
place, at some suitable location on
the grounds, construct an attractive
bungalow rest room.
Set Cleanup Day
AS an initial move toward beauti-
tying the cemetery, in which the peo-
pie of the community are deeply in
terested, the Cemetery society has
set Saturday, May 5, as cleanup day,
at which time the people of the
community are asked to. assemble at
the cemetery with shovels and rakes,
and aid in giving the grounds a
thorough cleaning. The Moscow
Business and Professional Women's
club which is one of the new organ
izations to take an active interest in
community betterment, will serve
coffee at the grounds during the day
It is asked that all who can turn
out for the day and aid in the work,
and that announcement be made from
tAe various pulpits in the city to-
morrow morning
VIII Give Benefit Dance
Approximately one thousand dol
lars will be needed to defray the ex-
penses in connection with immediate
on the cemetery
grounds, and to aid in raising this
amount, a dance will be held under
the auspices of the Ladies' Cemetery
association at the Elks' temple Tues /
day evening, May 8. The Elks will
donate the hall and it is asked that |
other fraternal organizations of the /
city arrange to furnish the music

MANSON SAWMILL IS
DESTROYED BY FIRE

The Manson & Son sawmill, cas-
OF Viola, was destroyed by fire We'd
nesday afternoon, according to word
brought to Moscow, Saturday, by G.
E. Manson, junior member Of the
firm. The sawmill and planning mill,
with about 10000 feet of lumber, was
destroyed The fire caught in the
shavings bed, from the furnace. The
loss was about $4,000, with no insur-
ance. So
A favorable wind made it possible
to save about 10000 feet Of mill
lumber on the yard.
The timber available for the mill
had been all cut and only the planer
was being operated. 1t had been
planned to move the mill to another
location shortly. The owners are
now uncertain as to whether they
will rebuild
G. p Manson, the senior member
of the firm of Manson & Son, lives
in Moscow, and is one of the pioneer
sawmill men of Latah county.

Community CHORUS
NEXT WEDNESDAY

The annual concert of the COM
munity chorus on next Wednesday
evening at eight o'clock in the uni
versity auditorium, is one of the i'm
portant musical events of the year.
The program consists of two compost
tions of the trilogy which made the
reputation, while he was yet stu
dent, of the English composer, Samuel
Coleridge-Taylor. He was twenty
three when the first of them, Hia-
watha's Wedding Feast, was given
at the Royal College in London in
1898. "The Death of Minehaha fol-
lowed the next year. These two will
be offered by the community chorus
of some so voices, townsfolk and stu
dents, with orchestral accompani-
ment
Coleridge-Taylor caught the spirit
and cadences of Indian tribal melo
dies and portrayed them with extra
ordinary felicity. The harmonies, Of
ten surprising are always convincing,
Nor has the author of the famous
American epic come off badly. Long
fellows lines are translated into
music which properly interprets, with
out embellishing them. The tenor
solo in the Wedding Feast " On Away,
Awake, Beloved" will be taken by
j.. Stanton Mclaughlin. The solo
parts in the Death of Minnehalla "
are sung by Mrs. H. D. Martin and
Mr.. Mclaughlin. Tickets are 35 cents,
and may be procured at Bratton's
or at Hodgins', beginning Monday
morning

Recovery DENIED
EXTRACT COMPANY
GOODS SHIPPED AND SOLD In
VIOLATION OF LAW TO
TROY DRUGGIST

Recovery of 1862, alleged to have
been due on account for medicines
and extracts, has been denied the
McConnon Drug company in an ac-
ton against j. w. Burgess, Troy
druggist, Eric Oller, and Lawrence
Johnson, his bondsman. The decision
by Judge E. G. Steele of the district
court was entered yesterday.
The recovery was denied because
part of the goods owed for were
flavoring extracts, containing SO to
80 per cent alcohol, and were known
to be used for beverage purposes by
the company. Judge Steele held that
there could be no recovery for any
of the goods shipped or sold in VIOLA
tion of law
Amount Owed 1862
The drug company shipped and
sold $4,000 worth of goods to the Troy
druggist and all but 1862 was paid.
The two defendants named in the
suit, Eric Oller and Lawrence John
son, were bOndsmen of the druggist.
1t was shown in the case that 5000
worth of the goods were flavoring
extracts, containing so to 80 per cent
alcohol, which could be used for bev-
erage purposes. 1t was shown that
and that they were known
to be so used by the plaintiff COM
pany.
The court held as matter of law
that there could be no recovery by
the company on any of the goods
or sold in violation of law.
