Citizens of Any
Community Are
Responsible For
It's Prosperity

By spending your money at home, you
are helping to build up your community,
creating more employment for yourself and
the laboring people of the Harbor. Making
for your own prosperity and that of the
community. By paying your bills promptly,
the merchants can take advantage of spe-
cial discounts by paying cash; this saving
is usually passed on to their customers.
The Harbor is daily canvassed by ped
dlers with various articles of merchandise,
often offered at small payment down. The
mail-order houses are also flooding the Har-
Dor with catalogues. Merchandise obtained
thru this source is not always reliable. It
can many times be bought from your local
merchants for less money. Your merchants
carry in stock practically every article of
merchandise that is reliable and standard.
Buy local products whenever possible.
Trade at Home.
Boost the Community!
The advertisers in the Labor Press are
making special effort to get the laboring
peoples trade.

st, Paul wanted Apollos TO go on
a mission to Corinth. But Apollos
was not at all willing to go.
So Paul yielded gracefully about
the immediate mission. And Apol-
los promised generously that he
would go at the first opportunity.
Was not this a pretty way to
settle, or rather to prevent, quar-
rel rising from clash of wills?
Observe, Paul says nothing about
his reasons for wishing Apollos to
go, or Apollos reasons for wishing
to stay.
He does not say that he was right
and the other man wrong.
He does not revive the difference
or repeat the controversy.
He merely says that he gave way,
and adds that Apollos will come
later, as if to assure the Corinthians
that Apollo is not unfriendly.
In a dispute which can be settled
only by one will yielding to another,
do not make the concession grudg-
ingly, for that will leave a grudge.
Do not repeat the discussion to
your neighbors, for that may leave
feud.
Above all if it turns out that you

Dear Folks:

Dear Folks:
Several letters from young people
with statements something like this,
Nobody really likes me, I'm SO ugly,
what can 1 do to be attractive!'
have come to ME lately, and it gives
me a clutch at my heart strings to
have young people feel like that
when really it is not at all neces-
sary.
can hear you say, "Gracious,
Aunt Julia has imagination" when
L make the remark that it is not
necessary for any one to look ugly.
In the first place where a sweet
disposition exists or is cultivated
the expression CANNOT be UGLY.
SO the first step towards good locks
is to cultivate a good disposition.
Fretfulness and discomfort makes
ugly lines. Next dress suitably. DO
NOT WEAR EXTREMES in either
clothesi or hair arrangement. Study
your lines. If you are tall and
thin avoid stripes running up and
down, have broken lines in your
dresses. If you are short and fat,
don't wear plaid. Wear lines
straight up and down, avoiding ruff
AlcS DIS you WOuIu peSllIenCe.
Select the color of your clothes
! with regard to the color of your
hair and eyes, and above all with
regard to your complexion. For in
stance if you are sallow, DON'T
WEAR PINK. Choose a color that
will clear your skin.
Use plenty of good pure soap and
warm water. Always on the face
follow a hot bath with a cold one
to close the pores. Cleanliness is
| absolutely essential to looks.
I hope these few suggestions will
help some of my disheartened girls.
Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.
Mary D.: Cut a lemon in half, dig
your nails vigorously in to the cut
side. Taking care that at the side
and base of the nail is we'll soaked
in the lemon juice. Soak your hands
in warm water and suds from a pure
soap. With an orange stick careful
ly push the nail back, until the
shape around the nail is a nice oval.
Do not use metal for cleaning under
the nail, Use ivory or orange stick.
The metal scratches the inside of
the nail and makes a rough surface
to catch and hold dirt. At night
rub a good hand lotion into your
hands, and l believe in a few weeks
you'll write me that your hands are
much improved.
j. H.: A white vest [ think is for
older men. White duck or flannel
trousers, a blue or gray coat, white
shoes, a white shirt and proper tie
this is considered correct dress for
informal affairs. In this hot weather
you do not want vest. In the winter
when you do not own or do not care
to wear a dress suit or dinner suit, a
navy blue suit with vest to match,
black shoes and you are all right
for an informal evening affair. A
gray suit is also permissible.
Lollie: Heat your tomatoes and
your milk separately for cream Of
tomato soup, put a good pinch of
soda in your tomatoes, add your
boiling milk which has been season
ed with butter, pepper and salt, if
you will be sure to add the soda to
your tomatoes your soup will not
curdle.
Mrs. Cliff Booth: I think YOU
make a serious mistake TO use the
tomato ketchup made in the broken
enameled vessel. L will try to get
you more definite information and
will publish it next week. In the
meantime do not use the ketchup.

efficient, so invaluable to us show
what women can do in business IL
they give their minds to it.
"Women could make tremendous
places for themselves, if they would
in any organization, for there is no
denying that women bring val
liable feminine quality into the com
mercial field.
"AIl business, nowadays, deals
more or less with women, and
womans knowledge of her sex ana
how tn appeal to it is valuable. A
woman's institutions often amount
to a sixth sense, and this frequent

gift for detail, her sense of order,
and her instinct for strengthening
things out, her faculty for remem-

ents-are simply priceless in an Of
flee.
"As I said before, I don't know
what we would do without our five
hands on any paper we want in the

you've turned the house upside

it, and who are the embodiment of
faithfulness, accuracy, loyalty, ana
all the other cardinal business vir-

But the other hundred and for
ty-five foolish virgins are a thorn
in the flesh and vexation to the
soul. Their only interest in their
work is their pay envelope. They
waste their time; they do their work
without intelligence, or enthusiasm,
or pride of craftsmanship. They
do not try to learn, and would
never employ another one except

it in them to be such super-busl-
