A Timely Hint

In this day of fake stocks of
people around Coulee that we
have a pretty safe bureau of in
formation in the banks of the
community. 1t is part of the
bankers business to keep posted
on such things. Az rule he
knows what is safe and what
isn't; what is dependable and
what is doubtful. And it is to
his credit that he tries to protect
his neighborhood from such
investments as are apt to prove
valueIess. He askes no compen-
sation for his advice; neither
does he feel offended if you fail
to take it. But more than one
man has been spared from the
loss of good hard money by
steering clear of stocks his bank
err friend was doubtful about.
Even though a good many have
lost money in recent weeks on
the investment market. buying
stock will continue. So if you
are in the market" for some
thing that will net you a profit
on your money. take a moment
before investing to talk it over
with banker friend. You may
be mighty glad a little later on
that you did so.

Winter Is No Obstacle

IA good many Coulee citizens
can remember the time when the
coming of winter meant the end
of virtually all outdoor activity.
Carpenters and bricklayers laid
aside their tools and sat back to
await the coming of spring.
Everybody practically ''hol I'd
up" for the winter.
Even, a quarter of century
ago there was no construction
work; concrete was not poured
because it would freeze; the auto
was lacked up and tires and
batteries removed-and the fami
ly settled down for the winter.
Today there is no such thing as
a closed season for almost any
trade. There is always some
thing to be done and willing
workers ready to do it. Making
a living is now a 52-week job
every ear, and not crowded in
to a few months of any particu.
lar season.
This speaks volumes for i'm.
proved method, and especially
for our ability to invent machines
that do not have to have certain
weather conditions in order to
function. 1t makes life far east
Ell. too, when men do not have to
remain idle during the cold
months simply because the
weather is not to their liking.
Few men enjoy loafing. The
average man is glad to- have a
jobrhe can work at regular in
winter the same as in the summer
seasons. The passing of the old
custom of "holing up for the
winter and barely existing until
spring returned has been worth
q lot TO the country as a whole.
Itghas gone far toward eliminat-
ing the germ of laziness is a
menace to any nation that suffers
it to exist,
