they say, ''if you show it can be done
In war time there will be a demand
that 1T be done in peace time" 1t
cannot be done in peace time There
can be no great undertaking without
strong moving cause In peace time
the moving cause is personal initiative
and payment for services performed.
The substitute for that in war time is
the common danger
The War Industries Board was the
foremost advocate of price fixing and
distribution, and it had great power In
this field, but when the Armistice
came it recognized that peace condi-
tions were being restored, and it was
the first to change the war time order
of things and to leave to the people
themselves the readjustment of their
affairs. I am satisfied that It is i'm
possible for the government to do In
peace time what l am advocating, al
though it becomes absolutely neces-
sary in order to conduct a modern
war successfully and to conduct it on
lnon-prof1teering basis.

ADVERTISERS AWAKE

There is no use Of the average pro-
gressive business man in this valley
passing the buck onto the weather
conditions, such as drouth, money
tight, business rotten. He has an
even break with everybody now. The
money that has been held back thru
many will now release as never be-
fore in the valleys history. 1t is up
TO Mr.. Business Man to wake up and
get it, before others, seeing the op-
pOrtunity at hand, step in and do it
themselves. If you will note, since
the rains have started so has adver-
tising. You can't expect business if
you don't solicit it through the chan
nels of your home newspaper. You
can't expect the press to do your
advertising for you free of charge.
Business houses that refuse to adver-
tise merely write their own epitaph,
while others spring up about them.
1t is characteristic the world over
You must cope with your business
conditions or lose out Recently we
were asked by one of the largest
firms in the valley with branches all
over to start a campaign against i'm
pOrtatiOns of outside products into
this state and this very firm has
never advertised in our columns but
goes outside of town to advertise
The average subscriber would give
us the laugh if we started such a
campaign. The business man must
awaken to both sides of the question
and not his own personal selfish mo-
tives. The public is wise and awake
How would it look to start bawling
the public out for using this brand
of goods, and have them peruse our
columns and see no other brand
advertised, and if it is to be found
advertised it will be outside the COM
munity in which it is produced. It
can't be done. You advertise your
faith in what you have to sell. 1t is
part of good business to do So

ing the public veal, while politicians beslege
him to accept gold, ease, luxury, and forget
his interest in the public good?
The great sacrifice goes on day by day,
and unless the masses come to the rescue,
the Press inevitably will-must sell itself
to the money gods or perish.
Many moon shall wax and wane, many
a crescent of the night shall silver the sands
Of the desert, many purple shadow shall
follow the sunsets which turn into simmer
ing carpets of gold the seas of sand, ere the
real editor will leave his trust of the peoples
good and accept the gold of the money gods
hut. inevitably the clouds of want must
hide the sunlight of noble purpose, the stars,
and the moon of the desert nights must be
hidden by the mists of descending ruin-and
the editor, martyr to his own ideals, must
one day, in duty to his loved ones, take the
easiest way-unless the masses care enough
for their own interests to support the most
powerful of all public chamnions-the Press.

THE REVIVAL AT THE METHO'
DIST PROTESTANT CHURCH

The evangehstic campaign at the
First Methodist Protestant Church of
Milford is growing in interest as the
days go by.
There have been large cOngrega-
tions from the beginning. In fact
there are always good congregations
at the Methodist Protestant Church.
Last Sunday, both morning and eve
ming, there were very large congre-
cations. At night, doors had to be
opened into the Sunday school room
and chairs brought in to accommo-
date the people who wanted to hear
the evangelist, Rev. John M. Baker.
Rev. DR.. Bryan, the pastor, re-
ceived a good number into church
membership in the morning.
Rev. Mr.. Baker is a very interest
ing and persuasive preacher. He is
as tender as a woman, and is free
from the coarse and unrefined Ian
guage so often found in some of our
modern evangelists.
Next Sunday evening will conclude
the campaign of Rev. Mr.. Baker. He
will preach at both the morning and
evening services, and at 8 p. m.
there will be a large mass meeting
to which everybody in Milford is in
vited. AS this is an hour when there
is no other service at any of the
Milford churches, Evangelist Baker
hopes to see people from all the
churches present, as he has a spe-
cial message for the afternoon meet
ing.
