PAY DAY
By JACK O'BRIEN
(Written for the Mail

I like the man who trusts me so
For fifteen days or more.
And sometimes when l don't pay
then
1t doesn't make him sore.
That's why like to trade at home
For their ways are never small
They know me well and l know
them
My friends and neighbors all.
And never will the time go by
I promised him you see;
And the cash he needs to carry on
For the goods he trusted me.

The finest on the trail
I like to read their cut price tales
In the good old Winslow Mail.
Yes, payday means a lot to me
And O, the joyful thrills
That's ever mine when comes the
time
That l can pay my bills.

THE SCHOOL TEACHERS

THE first days of autumn bring
back to our cities and town:
those earnest people who teach IL
our schools. The impression has
prevailed among some that these
folks have somewhat easy time
as the result of a five day week
and long summer vacation.
Some teachers without much en-,
thusiasm for their work may sl1[
along in an easy way. But if they
p try to do that, their chances Tor
promotion are poor. The great ma
iority of them are hard working
folks, who feel their respons1b1ll-
ties quite heavily, and who carry
a burden of anxiety created by the
failures and Indifference of the
more indolent and stupid pupils.
The good teachers work is not
ended when the children are dis
missed. Then it is necessary to
begin on hours of preparation for
the task that is to come, and many
hours must be spent in correcting
papers and giving help to back
ward pupils.
The problem of discipline is not
solved by any system of rules.
The teacher must somehow be able,
through some spirit of personal
magnetism, to communicate in
spiration and ambition to children
who naturally are dull, phlegmatic,
or mischievous.
The good teacher must feel un-
der strain much of the time, as
she tries to keep herself alert and
smiling, in the effort of secure the
co-opefation of all these children,
SO many of whom do not naturally
have any desire for learning. 1t is
hard to keep up this high level OF
enthusiasm day after day. 1t is
not to be wondered at that many
teachers get nervous and fatigued
through this constant effort. We
all owe them much for their sus-
tanned earnestness and devotion.

this class of stores have gone
broke.
1t is a generally admitted fact
that the man who pays cash to
some extent has to carry the bur-
den of the fellow who does not
pay at all and of the cost of carry
ing accounts, where credit is ex-
tended.
This is manifestly unfair to bus
mess most priced customer. He
is entitled to some benefit for pay
ing cash He should not have to
carry any of the burden imposed
on business by the credit system.
That load belongs on the shoulders
Of those who enjoy and use credit.
1t should be placed where it be-
longs by the merchants themselves
through the adoption of price
differential in favor of the man
who pays cash.
The adoption of the price diff
ferential would be practical in
many lines Of business where both
a cash and credit system are used.
Prices should be fixed, and then
a definite discount given for cash
payment.
AS it is, there often is not suf-
ficient inducement offered to GUS
toners to pay cash. Usually the
prices charged cash customers are
the same as those asked from pa
irons who get credit.
1t would be both to the interest
of business and the buying public,
if more stress were given to pol
icy of making it decidedly worth
while for people to, pay cash, at
least in their dealings with local

Gods Children
By D. MAITLAND BUSHBY
(Written for The Mail.)

Sitting back well out of sight
On "a brushy knoll in Lonesome
Valley,
I. pulled at my pipe and watched
The little folks of the wild
AS they played around me.
Rabbits spied me in my den
And stomped their feet in surprise,
Only to forget me when made
no move
A squirrel came up and smelled
my boot,
Seeing the smoke come out of my
pipe,
He barked once, then was gone
But returned soon at safe dis
tance
And watched that tantalizing smoke.
The sun began to sink behind the
valley wall, --
With the lengthening shadows
The mourning doves winged by
With a music all of their own.
Next a clucking mother quail
With a brood of fifteen peeping lit
tie ones,
Came marching down the hillside
In single file with their daddy
Strutting along behind.
A night hawk swooped above them,
Seeing him, I raised up with a yell
And was rewarded by hoot OWLS
wall.
But l had saved those fluffy balls
That had suddenly grown dear to
me.
Then from off a distant hill
In grateful voice, it seemed to me,
AS 1 started back to the world of
man.

DISCOUNT FOR CASH

NH1E MAN who pays cash is the
pride and joy of business men.
He it is who furnishes the liquid
capital to keep the wheels of the
business machine oiled from day
to day.
The man who pays cash does
not always receive the considera-
ton to which he is entitled from
some business houses. Certain
businesses which operate strictly
on a spot cash basis make price
concessions to him. 1t is a notable
fact that there are very few cases

Ten Santa Fe Years
How the Santa Ee has grown in ten years and what
that growth means to SanaEe patrons. Better service
unreasonable rates, s,due to efficiency OF operation
and millions spent for improvements.

Other important items have grown,
too. Such as expense of maintenance of
the railroad, which increased 121 per cent,
or $1,7OO a mile. Maintenance of loco
motives showed an upward trend of 1877
per cent, or Sc, 141 each. Passenger cars
85 per cent, or $999 a car. Freight
cars 155 per cent, or $161 per car. All
operating expenses combined jumped
ia per cent. Taxes advanced for each
mile of track 1876 per cent, or 1898. To-
tai taxes in 1924 were $17,73O,961 or
$1,499 per miie.
Yet Santa Fe freight rates have gone
up only 28 per cent and passenger fares
only AZ per cent.
Freight loading carried by each car has
increased 3.12 tons, or IA per cent. Freight
loading carried by each freight train has
increased 226 tons, or 81 per cent. These
are gratifying marks of progress.
The Santa Fe hopes to keep on grou0-
ing and to keep on giving satisfactory
service.

That Santa Fe freight n1oUes promptly,
Lhat Santa Fe journeys are enjoyable
doesn't just happen.
Wise economies, 284 million dollars
spent between 1914 and 1924 on track
and equipment, and the cooperation of
patrons and employees have helped
to build up great transportation ma
chine which is at your instant service for
a most reasonable charge. And this in the
face of heavy increase in costs of operation
without corresponding increase in rates.
In these ten years the Santa Fe and the
Southwest have grown together. The Santa
Fe's growth has been not only in mileage
and facilities, but also in ability to SerUe
patrons better.
This decade has been a period Of ex
panSion. In it the Santa Fe's operated
mileage has increased 922 miles. Each
locomotive now hauls 54 per cent more.
Nearly $4,000 more Santa Fe freight cars
are available. There has been an increase
of IS per cent in passengers carried one
mile and 79 per cent in revenue tons car
ried one mile.

4 CONTEMPORARY says it heard

A CONTEMPORARY says it heard
a a, story the other day Of an editor
who was carried home on stretcher
as result Of somebody saying kind
word about something he had printed.
The story isn't true. The editor
might have been carried home, but If
so it probably was because somebody
had brought him can of moonshine
on subscription instead of the GUS
tonary cabbages or cordwood. The
fact is, nobody gets more kind words
than the editors, and he is used to
them and does not suffer from a sur
felt of them. Sometimes we wonder
what the public sees in it's editors to
justify its friendly manifestations
toward them; but we suppose people
generally are not as well acquainted
with editors as we are.-Yakima Re-

GOOD PAY

A RE you known as good pay? Do
"A you take care of all your bills,
large or small, with the utmost care?
If you do, then this editorial is not
addressed to you.
But if you are in the habit OF ne
glecting small accounts, then we
urge you to pause for moment and
think what good credit is worth. Per-
haps you may not want to borrow any
money right now. But the time may
come in the next few years when
YOU will need a little help from the
bank to get some new machinery, to
buy out small business and stock
the shelves, or to build home that
YOU have so long desired. And when
that time comes you will naturally go
and talk it over with your banker.
If you are said to be "good pay
he will probably help you gladly. But
if the citizens of Kennewick have
spoken Of you in a sighting way as
"slow pay he will politely inform
you that your collateral or security
is not sufficient. Such is the value OF
a good name. If the moral risk is not
great the security is not so lmpor
tant. But if he feels that You are II
the habit of neglecting accounts, ht
hesitates unless you are able to offe1
the best of collateral.

SCARAMOUCEIE AT
 LIBERTY TONIGHT
THE TEN REEL MASTERPIECE OF FlLMDOM TO BE SHOWN
 IN THIS CITY

"Scaramouche, a Rex Ingram pro- duction for Metro Pictures Corpora tion, adapted from Rafael Sabatini's | novel of the same name will be at the | Liberty Theatre tonight
 This picture, in ten reels, has played special engagements in the larger cit l ies and comes to Seward acclaimed by critics as one of the masterpieces of filmdom.
 Ingram from all accounts has sur passed his production of the -Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" with this picture.
 "Scaramouche" is a story of the French revolution It tells the TO- nance of Andre-Louis Moreau (Ra- mon Novarro) and Aline de Kerca dious (Alice Terry). Andre Louis has been brought up as the ward of Aline's uncle. The Marquis de la Tour Lewis Stone), a naughty aristOcrat and man of fashion, killed Andre Louis friend, Philippe, because of his revolutionary sentiments, and on the Marquis Andre Louis has sworn eter nal vengeance. To make matters worse, the Marquis is cOurting Aline Andres seditious speeches cause him to be sought for the gallows and in escaping from the pursuing gende- armes, he joins a strolling band of players and becomes Scaramouche, the clown. Bitterness against Aline l leads him into an affair with the lead ing lady of the troupe but he ends this when the girl accepts attentions from the Marquis.
 Skilled in fencing, Andre Louis Mo- reau is persuaded to become substi- ute deputy in the National Assembly of France for deputy who was kill ed in the series of duels brought by the aristocrats against the peoples representatives. In duel with de la Tour d'Azyr, that is the elimination of his activities in the Assembly, An dre-Louis wounds the Marquis, and Andres misunderstanding of Aline's actions after the duel, further widens the breach between them. $.
 The fires of rebellion among the lower and middle classes of Paris are finally famed into open revolt. The patriot Danton George Siegmann) leads the mob to the Tuilleries where the monarchy is Overthrown. The Marquis escapes from the massacre at the Tuilleries and seeks shelter at the house where also is Aline who has been unable to escape from the city, and when Andre Louis comes to save her and finds the Marquis there The two men ar on the point of killing each other when revelations are made disclosing that Andre is the Marquis son.
