PROMOTE HOME BUYING BY HOME
 ADVERTISING.

One way the merchants anz producers could en- courage buying at home would be to advertise their wares and products extensively and persstently so that people would know what there is to buy here and at what prices they might be procured. The Eastern magazines and papers and periodicals of all sorts that in with attractive advertisements of things that might be bought through the mails are the motive power behind the mail order business. Let producers and merchants profit from their ex- ample. This is age of advertising. Successful manufacturing and commerce is based upon that than any other thing. The best advertisers get the trade and profits. Let the people know what they buy at home.

A New Era.

 President Coolidge in his speech dedicating the Mountain Lake Sanctuary and Singing Tower, gift from Edward w. Box to the American people, re- vealed aspect of his character of thought The occasion enabled him to disregard altogether political and economic discussion, except in thelr relations of contrast
 The generally regarded cold practical apostle of materialistic economies for the nonce, became the visioned idealist of faith philosophy of life He beheld accretions of great wealth as national blessings, not constituting menace to the general welfare, but a chief contributor to it's yet wider extension He in wealth the source of new of idealism, era in which the songs of birds and the pealing of happy bells are synchroni2ed with nobler prosperity, with wider opportunity and inclination to give thought to beauty in all it's forms and expressions He preached the gospel of beauty-a beauty to be enjoyed by the masses and not by the privileged few only.
 Pressing necessities which formerly hampered and burdened the people are giving way to the true art of living And this of economies declared: The useful and practical are being supplemented by the artistic and beautiful"
 And this is The progress through the ages has been steady and inexorable until today the schools and universities, the art galleries reflect the glory of Gods groves and waters and mountain majesty, and exaltations of love and virtue and honesty, the pulsing beauty of life system con- stantly approximating ideal estate.
 And here the of facts and figures reiterates truth which has been exemplifed in every cvili- 1dtion. The possession or money has never been sufficient to gain the social attentions of people of culture and refinment'
 Money may be a concomitant, an accessory, but 1t is not an absolute essential of culture and refine ment This is why the people of moderate means in America possibly may attain to the best estate known to human experience. Our industrial and educational systems make for the development of a finer nature and finer citizenship.
 Standing in the lovely Florida environment-in sanctuary dedicated to birds and bells and people who in their souls may experience response to the appeals Of purity and beauty, with whispering trees ana musical waters all about him, it is small wonder that this quiet man from the rugged New England hills exalted his soul in idealistic glorifca

The Daily Alaska empire., 1929-03-05


 You can't blame a grocery clerk these days if he is convinced the woman doesn't like her husband if she decides to take peck of spin ach instead of the peck of potatoes she asked for in the first place
 Among other changes that have come with time is the idea of what some pretty decent people consider vulgar.
 If a woman has a card index for her cooking recipes it is a cinch she hasn't one to keep track of the husband she has had.
 One of the hardest things about life to understand is why Nature provided so m any people with strong vocal cords and weak brains
 Usually the kind of nice boy who puts his clothes on the hangers himself instead of leaving it for his mother to do is the kind that grows up to furnish a department store clerk for the ribbon coun- ter.
 A pious air is no more sign of real religion than a wagging tongue is of real knowledge.
 If husband becomes enamored with another woman his wife has a chance of winning him back, but when he gets to loving himself more than he does her she may as well figure out how much alimony she can squeeze out of him.
 Husbands may be worse, or else the old-fashioned wife was better for she didn't need to use a gun to make her husband lie down, roll over and jump through hoop and make him like it in the bar gain.
