SUMMER NEEDS GREATEST

When hot weather comes 1t is in
stinctiye for all workers to clamp on
the brakes and reduce speed. So 1t
is with some merchants, but not
with those to whose stores the
townspeople point with possessive
pride. Sporadic advertising is the
reason why many business places do
not lead in the community. Dimin-
ished advertising during the hot
weather period is the reason for the
poor business which striving stores
never complain of in summer.
Buyers in Mountain Home admit
of more merchandise desires in sum
mer than in winter There are an
endless number of purposes to shop
for in sweltering weather, even more
than when the snow flies and the
thermometer drops below the coal
pile. 1t is true than human beings
wear more clothing at wearing in
winter than in summer but both
men and women need and equip
themselves with more changes in
clothing in warm weather than in
cold. Then there are the summer
meals when just meat, bread and po-
tatoes won't do. The automobile re-
quires accessories, touring equip
ment, picnic needs and ordinary Sun
day. evening and holiday drive de-
in clothing. The summer
home calls FIR more to lend comfort
than do the winter quarters.
Busy merchants have come to the
Of hot weather business

ton does not experience defation in
the summer, so is it not logical to
assume that every advertisement is
read as carefully and by as many
people in summer as in winter? Re-
suits being obtained by the busy
stores lend credence to the assump-
tion. Primarily newspaper adyertis-
ing is for the buying public, but this
is never more true than on swelter-
ing hot summear afternoons when a

ON OUR OWN RESOURCES

The individual who is thrown up
on his own resources, in a great
many instances becomes the man
upon whom others depend. His
growth mental and physical is more
than likely to be Of a substantial
character When his perseverance
and pluck is crowned with success,
well may he take pride in the ac-
complishment His family and friends
honor him. To the mhe typifes the
spirit that has made American BUSH
ness men and their methods the en-
Wy of the world.
A city like an individual is no
greater in wealth, strength or other
wise than its citizens make 1t. 1t
matters not how much wealth, how
great the natural advantages of the
place, If the people who live there
allow the wealth and advantages toI
lie dormant it will never grow.
Mountain Home has the wealth, it
has the natural advantages far in
excess of many cities Its health and
climate are advantages that many
cities would give untold millions to
possess.
Why should not Mountain Home
be the master of its own destiny, !
why should foreign capital and
brains be looked for in the develop
ment of the city? Why is it that
opportunity after opportunity pre-
sent themselves. only to be allowed
to be killed quickly or die a linger-
Ing but sure death? Can it be the
fear of being thrown on ones own
resources?
The outside promoter who inter
ests local capital and brains in an
enterprise, is ordinarily some one
far less capable than the associate
gained. His interest is naturally
and necessarily for the absolute pur-
pose of personal gain. He cannot be
expected to take into consideration
the fact that the enterprise from
which he expects pecuniary gain
should also be a credit to the city.
Foreign capital is not condemned, it
is nodded, wanted and welcomed
here, but those citizens of the city
who possess capital and brains neces-
sary for the development of Noun
tain Home should not need a slim
ulant to enable them to stand fairly
and squarely upon their own re-
sources in the upbuilding and devel-
opment of their home.
And so the city which is made
great and developed by its own citi
zens becomes the city of strength,
and the builders, with the conscious
ness of having brought this about
lake pride in their accomplishment.
The character of the development
brings out the best which is given
,y community interest and causes
is people to become fixed in their
determination to carry on the work
which their neighbors have begun.

Morris. Johnson, 10, an eighth

was awarded first prize and his
essay is printed in full below.
To own your own home is the
greatest blessing on earth.
The memories we carry with us
through all years are memories of
home. In every group of old friends,
the stories told, with laughter and
with tears, are those of home. What
greater heritage can we give our
children, than the remembrance of
well ordered home, complete in its
appointments and radiating charm
and comfort.
The family and the home are the
greatest factors of importance to a
community; first, because of what
they do for the individual citizen
in helping him to satisfy the de-
sires of life; and second, because
of the services they render to the
community as a whole. Many fam
lilies live in homes which they do not
themselves own; they rent from
others, when that is the case, there
is lacking one of the strongest in
fluences that makes the home life
complete. The ownership Of home
adds another bond of union to the
members of the family through the
common interest which it affords.
A man has greater interest in i'm
proving and beautifying home
that he owns than does he who rents
from another. A little study and
thought, combined with judgment
and knowledge of values puts an
artistic home within the reach of
most purses. A limited amount of
money buys SO much more beauty
nowaday than ever thought possible
in former years, even when great
amount of money was expended.

and other organizations, through a
