s,c MONEY AND INITIATIVE

Big money in business is essential.
Where thousands once would sumce
millions now are required. AS cap
ital accumulates and competition Tor
favorable investments becomes keen
or big money will be forced into
competition with big money. But
even 80 the man who has the inltl-
alive best to supply need will, as
he must, remain a very important
factor.
Millions are being invested In TINS
state in various enterprises from
face lotions to electrical development
and runnor is rife respecting a great
railroad merger. II this excites ap-
prehensions in the public mind
sense of relief may be found in the
thought that it as well may excite
envy among the rich and influential,
who for some reason are not on the
inside. Then there is the record OF
experience.
Once we were sure the railroads
would ruin the country and now,
only a few years later. we are Won
dering, especially those who live In
parts of the country where piled
SHOWS block the ways for several
months of the year, how we may
save the railroads from ruination to
render us service when the public
highways are blocked.
All this money needs brains, can
not long function without able man
arement. Ability Of that sort and
incentive to apply it usually are
not transmitted from rich father
to son. The demand for initiative,
for ability to foresee, to collaborate,
to plan and to execute. for clearer
understanding of human needs and
human psychology, for that matter,
is increasing. Once that Maine born
genius, who recently has perfected a
device to control heat in an electric
iron. could not have sold 1t for mil
lion dollars; there was no concern
with that much to pay for it. Today
there is, and are we better or worse
off because Of that? Big money has
need Of eternal vigilance as we'll as
do those who love liberty. There is
not likely to be an oversupply to
meet this demand, but every day
sees increase in the facilities for ex-
ercising 1t.
We are a big people. with big
country in need of big enterprises
requiring big sums Of money and big
minds to manage so as to command
a big support. Let's help to make
the support big enough for the
worthy enterprise.

Double Strength

This preparation for the removal Of
freckles is so successful in removing
freckles and giving a clear, beautiful
complexion that it is sold by all drug
and department stores with a guar
antee to refund the money If it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil or waste time on lemon juice or
cucumbers; get an ounce of Othine
and remove them. Even the first few
applications should show wonderful
Improvement, some of the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask for the double
strength Othine; it is this that is sold

In An Idle Moment

IN an tQ'0 lU0IiStb
(Jay E. House in Public Ledger)
In an idle moment the other day
we wrote a speculative paragraph.
In it. after noting that the livery
stable had vanished with the buffalo,
we expressed a curiosity concerning
the point at which the small town
hoi polloi now gathers to discuss
liquor and the ladies. In last week S
Grigsby City Clarion the Junior ed
itor thinking along collateral lines,
laments the fact that with the fem
mime invasion of the .torsorial par
lors the only remaining asylum for
the man who has heard new story
and wants to tell it has disappeared
With the livery stable gone and the
barber shop deodorized, the small
town must be a pretty dull spot now
adays.
OF course, in the small town, as
elsewhere, one can still find a way
to employ his leisure. He can al
ways be looking for a place to park
his car. But there isn't much thrill
in looking for a place to park car;
the glad days are gone, perhaps for
ever.
