Those who differed with Samuel
Gompers, late president Of the Am
erican Federation Of Labor, are
constrained to admit after his pass
ing that he was an unusual man and
that he won his unprecedented lead
ership of American labor unions
through unselfish devotion to the
cause he represented.
None doubted Gompers' integrity,
even his worst enemies. Many who
had been his most severe critics be-
came his admirers when he piloted
labor safely through the war by
preaching the doctrine of American
ism, and threw his influence on the
governments side with all the vigor
he possessed.
The leadership Of American labor
in less patriotic hands would have
been serious menace to Americas
successful elimination of the war.
Gompers had many admirable
traits, not the least of which was
his great devotion to American
ideals and institutions. His last
words were a prayer that they grow
better and better.
Gompers' life may we'll be a les
son to men and women who aspire
to leadership, whether large on
small. He won the confidence Of his
followers by never betraying their
trust. He placed the interests OF
the American laboring man above
even his own, refusing to use his Of
flee as a stepping stone to political
power.
Those who have ambitions TO be
come leaders in their communities
in the state, in the nation, in their
professions or businesses, SHOULD
remember that leadership not based
on sincerity and honesty vii

A New Year.

Another year has passed and
new one is before US, to be whatever
we shall make it.
1t is young and pliable and may
be nodded to suit our fancy. When
we write its history twelve months

or one Of backsIiding?

with great rapidity. Unless there
is a plan for improvement, com

curse, 3G5 days viii have gone into
history and we will come to the end
Of the year without San accomplish
ment TO our credit
Has this community a plan for
the new year? Is there any course
mapped out for action?
Or shall we just drift along like a
rudderless ship, aimless and pur-
poseless,s with no idea Of making the
most of our opportunities?
Communities that go along with
the current never get, any place.
They follow the line Of least resis-
lance until they lose initiative and
d desire to forge ahead. Then they
begin slipping, and once started
backward. they move faster in that
direction than they did forward.
II we get careless about the well
fare Of the community, if we are
satisfied to "lct well enough alone"
and INTERESTINGLY drag along. through
the year without ambition or hope

no hope of any advancement. We
are headed for the community grave

AuITLE TALK ON THRIFT
BY s. W. STRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

An important educational and So
cial betterment organization has un-
dertaken a survey Of how people
spend their idle time. The object is
to the advantageous employment of
leisure hours.
This movement emphasizes one of
the important phases of practical
thrift, namely, the conservation Of
time. We are apt to think of thrift
too much in terms Of money only.
Thrift means the conservation of
most efficient use of ALL our pos
sessions.
If it would be possible to translate
our wasted hours into terms of dol
lars and cents we would be surprised
at the results. The average man and
woman probably wastes more values
through lost time than through squan-
dering Of money.
1t also is to be borne in mind
that wasted time often leads to vast
ed money, wasted health and lower
ing of ones moral standards.
One of the best ways to practice
thrift is to keep at work, to keep do
ing something that is worth while and
is along the lines of self advance
ment and self improvement.
1t was through the rightful EN-
ployment of spare time that Lincoln
acquired an education, and men like
Carnegie, Hill and Edison worked
themselves up from positions of min
er Importance.
Thomas Jefferson made a rule al
ways to keep a good book within
reach and whenever he had even +;
few moments Of spare time he utiliz
ed them in helpful reading.
Every employer will tell you tina
if you want to build yourself up anC
make advancement do not become
known as time-waster.
Thrift of time is a lesson all mus
learn before success can be achieved

ter how we may have failed in all
the years gone by, though we have
wrung our hands and walled and

The New Year.

As the soul is BORN anew with the
rising Of every sun, so is the heart of
nation and Of business lightened
with the coming Of every new year.
Christmas, with its rush, its joys,
its fostering of peace and good will,
its holiday festivities, all tend to
prepare US for the gladstone new
year. The old books are closed. a
clean white page confronts US, and
the entire nation takes a new lease
on life.
The anticipation Of new business
and of more business, which IN
doubtedly comes after New Years.
renders life Just little less mono
tonous, and turns hard work into
play. The biggest and best thing
about New Years IS the attitude
toward il: and this attitude brings
fresh hopes, more industry, thrift,
and the host Of virtues that go to

Kicking Gets No Results.

A man worth more than $50,000,-
900 who died last year, had paid no
federal income taxes since 1916, set
Element of his estate lately revealed.
He didn't defraud the government
out of one cent. He bought tax
exempt state and municipal bonds
yielding four and one-half percent.
Had he invested his money in tan
gible property that could be taxed,
he would have done his share toward
bearing the tax burden of his city,
state and nation. And he would have
paid the government alone $S50,000,
not counting the local and state tax
es that would have been collected
from him.
We complain about high taxes and
still permit such things as this to
occur every day in. every community.
The taxpayers who own the money
that makes the business of the coun-
try, keep on paying taxes and keep
on kicking.
Some day they will awaken to the
fact that complaining is not accom-
plishing anything that the wealth
that should be doing its part will
have to be put on the assessors books
before taxes for the. average person
can be reduced Elk

A Perfect Gentleman.

Lightning is a perfect gentleman,
according to scientists, and will
never strike a man when he's down.
In a storm, persons lying flat on the
ground are reasonably certain to es-
cape death.
The possibilities are, esperts esti-
mate. that one standing directly un-
der a storm cloud would be hit fiji
teen times in one hundred strokes
while one on the ground would be
struck only once in hundred
strokes
Lightning may observe Marquis
Of Queensbury rules but, as with
matrimony, being struck once is suf-
fieient for a lifetime, providing that
the victim is able to survive the first
shock.
