The More Abundant Life
"a Community EditoriaD

"a Community EdltOrlaD
It is September! The sWeltering heat of summer
is gradually and perceptbly given the form of cool
ing breezes that forete the approach of autumn. In
dian summer is but few weeks away. There is
freshness and fragrance in the drying leaves
the sharp frosty air that is soon to come. On the
human side of the scale we see the children hurryng
off to school, there to find adventures and gain
new experiences. Vacations for old and young have
been drawing to close Club activities begin for the
fall and coming winter All this means that social and
cultural life is to be made abundant by activities
that enhance the values in neighborliness and fellow
ship
In the business world there is no time quite so
active this time Of the year. Fresh stocks of
chandise grace the shelves, inviting helpful and sug
gestive. The joyous holiday season even now looms
in the distance. Thanksgiving Christmas, and then
the new year
This is the time the heart takes on new courage
Even when the flowers wther and the grass dies away
there arises in the human breast those noble impulses
to carry The family circle takes on new signifi-
canoe as it is drawn closer together by autumn fire
sides The radio-tha invention that has brought the
worlds finest programs to palace and hut alike-is
beginning to be at it's best for broadcast and recep
hon Even the motor picks up spark and
takes on life In the clear and crispy air.
Those who work in store office, home Or on the
farm are little more active and alert. There is
more to do and it is done with will and snap that
brings results.
All of these things make possible the life that is
more abundant, fuller, richer and more useful.
Church, school, library, club, lodge, banquet hall,
and social intercourse become more substantial,
strong and enduring.
Would that all might share more of the blessings
Of the life more abundant. The task of society has
been and always will be to equaze material comforts
and opportunities for individual advancement as
nearly as possible consistent Of course with the de-
gree to which the individual contributes his talents
and usefulness to society. A more practical ideasm
will hasten such fulfilment.

Higher Cost Of Health And Sickness

Careless Senators taking away our vitamlnes
by making tomatoes luxury They propose also to
increase the cost of sickness through high duties
X-ray apparatus.
The Importance of the vitamine and the value of
X-ray treatments two factors in health that med-
cal science has stressed during recent years. Doctors
have pointed out that tomatoes especially rich
the vitamine used to combat ricketts, scurvy and si
lar diseases Tomatoes essentially necessary in
the diet of nvalids and children We obtain plent
full, cheap supply of tomatoes from Mexico and other
tropical countries during the winter months when
they cannot be grown in abundance here The 400 per
cent increase in duty proposed by the Senate Finance
Committee, if passed, will make these vegetables
prohibitive except to the very wealthy.
X-ray tubes now imported free, but X-ray
examinations are at present expensive bur-
den to the average person. 80 percent ad valorem
duty has been recommended by the Finance Commit
tee Unless our protectlonists stopped the impor
tation of tubes will be almost impossible and special
lists have testified to the inferiorty of American
made tubes
A House rate of 70 percent on surgical nstrl-
ments aroused such Indignation that it was reduced
to 40 percent by the Senate Committee A lombard
ment of scathing comment against the tomato and X
ray schedules, it is hoped, will bring even better
suits in the of these two most outrageous and
unjustifable items of tariff tinkerng.

Give the home town break but don't break it's
spirit
The biggest man in town isn't the biggest in
reality unless he does for his community proportion
ately as much as the average run of other citizens.
Back of the Nogales merchant is his reputation,
his civic standing, his efficiency, fair dealing and
usually his home and family If this is his status he
deserves your support
If you love your neighbor as yourself you won't
borrow his hose and then lose the rubber washer out
| of it.
There used to be lots of filling stations in the old
days, too; only people got tanked full of beer instead
of gasoline. So
Maybe the Democrats don't want Owen D. Young
for Presidential candidate much as to have him
work out plan to abolish their deficit
The first step in the abolishment of poverty would
be the annihilation of the sixtycent sandwich and
the establishment of the old nickel one out of the
same material.
Children who speak out so frankly in company
and sometimes to the point of embarrassment OF
their elders, aren't subnormal and there's nothing
wrong with their tOnss or adenoids They aren't old
enough yet to become hypocrites
Those who talk about stills don't own any
The irony of instalment buying is that you can't
settle down until you settle up.
The hard part about vacation is after it's over
and you wish you had gone some other place.
