EUROPE OWES US?

We Americans have more than ordinary interest
in the conditions of affairs in Europe. First and
greatest of all have the human and humane interest
born of a love of all mankind and desire for the
good of ALL Then have commercial interest arising
from the feeling that to be good customers they must
be prosperous And know that debtors their
prosperity is to advantage They pay if they
in condition to do SO, and it will be hard to
get dues from impoverished peoples. The amount
due by the old world nations follows: Armenia,

WEEKS BEST GOOD TURN

In recent nose dive just outside
of the City of Cleveland a privately
owned plane suddenly spun to earth,
digging out hole about four feet
square and almost entirely wrecking
the machine. The pilot was knocked
unconscious and severely injured.
Scouts Howard Boss and Charles
Peyton of Trooj 139 witnessed the ac-
cident. The boys lost no time in has
tening to the rescue and taking the
pilot out Of the wreckage. They
found car and rushed the injured
man to doctor Returning to the
damaged airplane, the Scouts discov-
cred large crowd of curious people
viewing the wreckage and beginning
to carry away pieces of equipment as
souvenirs. The boys hastened to the
home of their Scout Master, near by,
borrowed a clothesline from the back
yard and, returning to the landing
spot, set up guard line and appoint
ed themselves guards.
From Friday evening until Sunday,
night and day, and in spite of rainy
weather, the Scouts stayed at their
post. They procured tents and pitch
ed camp in true Scout fashion. BY
Sunday evening friends of the aviator
were located and assumed charge of
the wreckage. thus relieving the faith

ALL READY FOR CHRISTMAS

Christmas looms up prominently and compes
attention. Only few days and will have in
possession the contributions of Santa Claus to
happiness The glad yuletide will be realized in it's
fullest and joy and gladness will be found in
nearly every home in America. Between and De-
cember 25th the attention of people in all walks of life
will be focused upon that day. The life in the home,
social activities and the entire shopping world have
little else than the great Christian festival engage
their attention.
To many people the coming of Christmas involves
conditions that severely tax their strength This hap
pens because they do not take time by the foreock
and not forehanded in their preparations for the
day. The last few days before Christmas usually
filled with feverish activity because great multitudes
of people do not make their Christmas purchases earlier
with the result that they not only unduly tax their
strength but the strength of the clerks in the stores
in undertaking to accomplish in few days what should
have occupied their attention for whole month Late
shopping not only begets exhaustion and discomfort but
it makes impossible wise and economic selection of
purchases Obviously the best time to shop not just
before Christmas but at the present time when the
merchants lines of goods full the stores not crowded
and the purchaser take the necessary time make
wise selections.

AMERICA OWES CHRISTMAS
TO VIRGINIA CAVALIERS

The early Pilgrims gave us our
Thanksgiving Day, with it's huge tur-
keys and home circle pleasures, but it
is from the Cavaliers of Virginia, aid
ed and abetted by the early Duth set
tiers, that we take the tone for our
Christmas holidays. It is good
thing, too, as the Purities would have
omitted many of those simple joys
that make Christmas the greatest of
all our holidays, the day when joy
refgns supreme in every ones heart.
John Dickinson Sherman has writ
ten an unusual article on the Spirit
of Christmas, 1923, that appears on an
inside page, and which we know will
give our readers a different angle to
this most enjoyable of all days. He
tells how Christmas was celebrated in
years now dead and gone, and how
the institutions have lived. He does
not omit to emphasize how much chill
dren mean in this annual celebration.
Altogether it is a splendid article that
we urge our readers to go through
carefully. 1t will help relight the
fires of joy and happiness for them,
as it did for us.

renewed attention to the fact that in this country every
year shapers fleece unwary investors out of at least

Without advertising the victim would be too hard
to find and the pckngs of the sharper would

A POOL IN SILVER

1t is proposed that the producers of silver in
country form export association to dispose of silver
to the best advantage, if this does not interfere with
the Sherman antitrust law that hailed twenty
years ago as wonderful advance and which is
being set aside economic interference.
This matter discussed at a conference called
at Reno Nevada, to be held under the auspices of
United States senate commission created year ago to
consider broadly the silver situation it affects the
producer.
In one respect, at any rate, silver is like wheat
The nation which produces the bulk of the grain and
the bulk of the metal is not in position to dictate prices

STUDEBAKER'S SALES
FOR FIRST HALF OF
YEAR IS 1880 CARS

Word has just been received by
John w. Morton, local Studebaker
dealer, of the new record established
by the Studebaker Corporation of
America for the first six months
of 1928, when a total of $3.50
Studebaker cars II all skies - were
sold.
All Studebaker plants continue at
capacity operations and the present
output of $4,000 cars. per month is
insufficient to meet the persisten
demand for more Studebakers from
every section of the country, which
is as creator greater-than at any
time this year.
1t is well known that right from
the first of the year Studebaker has
experienced demand that has con-
tinuously been far in excess of pro-
duction, although plant capacity was
substantially increased during the
spring when a number of new fac
tory units at South Bend and Detroit,
on which construction was started
late last year, were completed and
equipped for production.
While Studebaker sales for the
past six years have increased pro-
gressively each year, the newest rec
ord can be better appreciated by
The sale of $3.50
cars in the first six months of 1923
shows an increas of SO per cent over

Compared with sales for the en-
ire year of 1918, the half-year rec

greater than sales for the full twelve
