YOU AND o WIFE

Let's suppose you are a business man. You have some
thing to sell. You do not think it is fair for your neighbors.
who want what you have to sell to send to distant cities for
these things. And you are right. You know that it pays to buy
ct home. Does your wife do all her buying in Cody? Does
she help Cody business and therefore your business by buying
what she needs in Cody?
Let's suppose you are an employed man. You know that
employment is increased as the business of Cody banks, stores,
factories ar" increased. If you and your wife buy in Cody, every
thing both of you and your children need the tendency is to
increase the business of Cody and therefore to increase the
number of employers who look for our services.
Let's suppose you are a stock holder, officer or employee
OF a bank. You know that the more money that is put into
circulation in Cody the more money spent in Cody after being
made in Cody the more business the banks will do. Do you and
your family buy what you need in Cody?
Whatever you are, whether it be minister, doctor, lawyer
jabor1ng man, clerk, investor, capitalist, it makes no difference
if your interest is in Cody it is to your benefit that all Cody
do thr buying out of town the town dies. If half of us buy out of
We all buy out of town the town dies If half of us buy out of
town WE have a halftown. If one-enh of us buy out of
town. we lack 10 per cent of being the town we ought to be-.
All of this comes with special force right at this time be-
cause this is the very time when doing your spending at home
Is most needed. A man or woman in Cody who thinks business
conditions could be improved and then buys several hundred
miles away what could just as well be bought right here at
home is not helping Cody at all. The money that could in
crease the circulation of money here, that could pump the life
blood of business faster, getting into many pockets, making
things easier for everybody. Spent away from home it does no
good in Cody; spent in Cody it does not stop it's usefulness
with that one spending.

Why observe Education Week? To
the American Legion the answer is
plain and positive. Education, as
the fathers of the Republic pointed
out from the very first, is the great
bulwark of the nation. In a dem
ocracy such as we have, the first
essential to national w%ell-being is
an intelligent %citizenry, itself pass
ing upon questions of national pol
icy and charting the Nations course.
You can not have an intelligent
citizenry without an informed citi-
zenry, nor an informed citizenry
without an educated citizenry. In
that view our schools are among
the mightiest of all the mighty for
ces which make for good in the
Nation. They take the citizen of
tomorrow in the impressionable lad
of to-day and mold him to the Ma
tons need and the Nations ideal.
The need and the value of edu-
cation were driven home to mem
bers of the American Legion and
" The INdlloh SebSi ally Wy Tie Woiio
War as they had never been before.
There is no demonstration so eff
fective and convincing as to find
oneself dependent for very life, as
the Nation found itself dependent
in that titantic struggle, upon the
education of its sons and daughters,
the education which gave them tools
to make their capacities for service
and devotion available and effective.
The startling disclosures of the
tests given in the armed forces of
this Nation in that war also brought
home as never before the need of
education. Fifteen million litter
ates in the country, on the basis
of Army figures; and the United
States, despite the pride which we
had felt in our school system, elev-
enth among the nations in illiteracy.
Those disclosures struck home to us
as nothing else could how absolute

WANING

Officially the eagle is the national bird of this country
but actually the turkey is the national bird. The turkey was
here before Columbus came and has never been native in any
other continent. But, in spite of his distinction, Mr.. Gobbler
is losing his popularity even in his native country.
Twenty years age there were enough turkeys raised in the
United States to give every family at least one turkey dinner
a year and few families that did not have turkey either for
Thanksgiving Day or Christmas. Today there are not enough
70 go around and thousands of families do not taste turkey meat
for years at a time.
When it is said that there are not enough turkeys to &C
around it is not meant that a shortage exists. The supply equals
and frequently exceeds the demand. The demand is less. Far
mers are no longer raising turkeys and fewer people are eating
them.
High market prices may be responsible for the decreasing
demand, but it is more commonly believed that the diminished
demand has increased the price. And many households have
learned that turkey meat, pound for pound, is but little more
costly than other barnyard fowls.
Past generations found the turkey indispensable at Thanks
giving Day and Christmas diners. In millions of homes he is
sg1ving Day and Christmas dinners. In millions of homes he is
still a necessity on these two annual occasions. The turkey is
in no danger of extinction, but it will take considerable cam
paigning to restore his lost popularity.

ly necessary it is that the Nation
look to its schools.
1t is not strange. then, hat we
of the Legion, recognizing the value
of education, should interest our
selves actively in our schools, their
needs, and their problems. The
Legion. in the very moment of its
organization, set up as n of its
chief aims work toward a better
citizenship and a better prepara-
ton for 1t.
Nor is 1t from that angle alone
that legionnaires are interested in
education. Proud of our Nations
history, we believe that our schools
should inspire future generations
a lofty spirit of devotion to country
and inculcate a sacrificial %consecra-
ton which would not stint in labor
to make America in the finest sense
a leader among the nations in all
things for human good. Honoring
the flag and the Constitution we
fought to defend, we desire that
our schools should teach reverence
for Old Glory as the purchase of
untold suffering and sacrifice and
the symbol OF a Nations aspiration;
and, understanding, resolve to up
hold the constitution; a real, fund
amental, broad-horizoned patriotism,
a patriotism that does as well as
talks, an abiding patriotism of the
spirit and not of the letter and
of the moment only.
American Education Week turns
the peoples thoughts to these things
which are basic in the Nations
life. 1t sets before the Nation the
needs and problems of education.
1t has already made itself felt in
positive ways FOL the Nations good
and is rich in promise for the fu-
ture. American legionnaires support
American education week for the
plain and positive reason of its
contribution to the Nations con-
tinued progress.

CLEAN JOURNALISM

American journalism shows a constantly increasing tendency
20 cast off sensationalism and morbidness in favor of higher
ideals and clean morals.
William McAndrews, superintendent of schools in Chicago,
under the caption, Can Morality Be Taught Directy?' urged
that "When we see the opposite of morality directly taught by
nasty dramas, salacious literature, disorderly moving pictures,
daily details of crime and lawlessness, there comes to every
man and woman in this education business the dreadful
realization that vice is ~teachable"
If the worlds moral progress is to keep up with its pro-
,ress along lines of material advancement, a decided and world
wide change of front must be obtained as a result of journalistic
effort.

STATE RETAILING KILLED

Amending the constitution of South Dakota to authorize
the state to sell gasoline at retail has been declared uncon-
sttutional.
The legislative act specifically authorizing sale of gasoline
was knocked out n the ground that "taXes shall be collected
and levied for public purposes only"
If the state could lawfully engage in retailing gasoline by
merely amending state constitution, it could open peanut stands
or millinery stores with equal propriety.

FISH HATCHERY FOR STATE
Being Studied by State and Federal
Commission With Delaware Citv CbO;

Being Studied by State and Federal
Commission With Delaware CITY ChOi
The project of a fish hatchery for
the Delaware River is attracting con-
siderable attention at the present time
owing to the activity of the Delaware
Commission, which has been seeking
concurrent legislation with the State
of New Jersey. In addition to this.
Harris SamOnisky, secretary of the
Delaware Commission and recently de-
signated by Governor Robinson as the
Delaware member for the Atlantic
Fisheries Commission, to be named bv
Secretary Of Commerce Hoover. has
taken up the matter direct with the
Bureau of Fisheries, of the Depart
of Commerce at Washington. The re-
ply received from Lewis Radcliffe.
acting Commissioner of Fisheries.
states that the establishment of a fish
hatchery in Delaware would have to
be provided through the passage of
bill by Congress. Delaware City has
been suggested and the project for
hatchery at that place has been dis
cussed for a number of years. Alex.
Borodin, Of the Bureau of Fisheries,
conducted a study at Delaware City
during the past summer, with special
attention to Matching of sturgeon. He
was very much impressed with condi-
tions at Delaware City and indicated
when he left Delaware at the end of
the season that he would exert every
effort to secure the establishment of
a fish hatchery at Delaware City.
The selection Of Delaware City as the
site for a hatchery is based on the
fact that it is some distance from the
sources of pollution of the river, and
also a short distance fromth head of
the bay.

DOVER TAILOR SHOP BURNED
Business Section of Capitol Threaten
ed Thursday as Fire Wipes Out Two
Buildings With a $1,000 Loss

Fire which, for a time, threatened
the business section of Dover, broke
out Thursday afternoon about 4.3O
o'clock in the cleaning house back of
the Andy B. Clements tailor shop on
LoOckerman street and but for the
prompt action of Robbins Hose Com
pany and the excellent working of
the two fire engines the results prob
ably would have been serious. The
cleaning establishment is wreck.
About rs suits left there to be clean
ed were burned, the machinery is a
total loss and barn back of the Mrs.
+. b. Stevenson property within a few
feet of the Clements cleaning shop,
was damaged by the fire, the total loss
being estimated at from $4,000 to ST.
600. Clements, because of the infam-
mable material used in the cleaning
house, had no insurance on either the
building or the machinery. There is
small insurance on the frame barn of
Mrs. Stevenson. Just how the fire
started no one seems to be able to ex-
plain. Mr.. Clements, the proprietor,
and another man were in the house at
the time the fire broke out. Mr..
Clements detected the blaze on the
floor not much larger than the palm
of the hand and at once seized a hand
fire eXtinguisher with which he tried
to put it out. The flames spread and
before anything further could be done
the fire reached the gasoline machine.
By the time the Robbins Hose Com
pany arrived the building was fam
ing mass with volumes of smoke pour
ing out from every quarter. The
flames soon spread to the Stevenson
barn, occupied by the H. B. Bice Com
pany. A horse was led out and other
things taken from the building. Sew
eral tons of hay in the loft of the
barn soon ignited and because Of this,
the fire was a stubborn one to fight.
Four streams of water were turned on
the blaze, the Clements fire soon be-
ing gotten under control, after which
attention was turned to the barn
which was mass of flames. With
fully a dozen frame buildings in close
to the fire the work of the
iremen in keeping it confined to the
one place was commended. The fire
men remained on duty until after
o'clock watching for any place where
a blaze might start again. Because of
heavily charged electric wires running
over the burning buildings, the current
vas shut off for nearly two hours.

NEWARK POsTOFFICE OUTLOOK
Government May Take Over Farmers
Trust COmpany's Building for Office

1t was learned last week that the
Newark postofice may be moved to
the building in the center of the busi-
ness district, now occupied by the
Farmers Trust Company. This
change Of course would take place
only after the bank has moved into
its new quarters in the building to be
erected on the land recently purchas-
ed from Mr.. Caho on Main street. Ac-
cording to advice received, this morn
ing, from an authoritative source,
proposal has been drafted and sent to
the PostOtfice Department at Wash
ington, offering the building for
period of ten years. This action fol-
lowed the recent visit of an Inspector
from Washington. Officials of the
bank went over the situation with him
and on his advice the proposal was
made. 1t is understood that he looked
favorably upon the building as a Fed
aral site, but no definite decision can
be made until the proposal goes thru
the department at Washington.
