Yet if group of energetic and confident people went

strong that they would transform it in few years They

They would hate fall behind and fail to keep up with
their neghbors.
People hate take the lead in things they hate to feel
that things depending them But if someone else
will lead the rest will generally follow
What most communities need them to obtain business
progress and community improvement is leadership They
need group of people who will take the lead things
and organize and carry them on After such

ARE YOU A THOROUGHBRED?

The weakest thing in America today
remarks shrewd observer, is not the
stock market, is not wheat, is not cot
ton, is not sugar, is not copper, is not
rubber; the weakest thing in America
today is our state of mind and the
observer goes on to say that the big
gest fortunes in America were founded
during times of panic. Rockefeller got
his great start in standard oil at such
time. Andrew Carnegie's early part
ners forsook him one by one when the
steel industry became acutely unprof-
liable, but little Andy did not run
away. Henry Clay Frick as young
man away back in '73 borrowed money
right and left and bought square miles
of coke lands when everybody wanted
to sell and in few years his profits
exceeded million dollars a year.
1t has been said that the difference
between the thoroughbred horse and
the scrub is that the scrub goes until
it cannot 90 another mile, whereas the
thoroughbred goes until it cannot go
another mile-then goes that other mile.
The thoroughbreds among men in the
business world are the ones who will
come out of the business recession Of
the past two years stronger and richer
than ever-because they have kept on
going when others have stopped.

that were much better than we DOS
sess today. By ordinary reasoning ono
would say that these things lnjurs
the teeth, but we must go back of
that TO find the trouble. Our grand
mothers and great grandmothers ate
food that was coarse and rough, which
secured the teeth and gums and at
the same supplying the necessary min
erals and vitamns to keep the teeth
and gums healthy.
Teeth and gums need to work 70
keep healthy just as does every other
part Of the body. Food that slips down
easily is not well masticated, gives
the teeth no work at grinding. which
they are made to do. Foods that re-
quire great deal of chewing are
needed for healthy teeth. Corn bread,
nuts, appes-skins and all-green,
fresh vegetables, such as cabbage, let
tuce, celery, green onions, all need to
be well chewed: this Is not all; they
are rich in the elements needed for !
healthy body.
Recent research has taught us that
tooth decay is observed where vita
min G is lacking. Or. Milton T. Hanko
OF the University Of Chicago In his
study Of the average American diet,
showed 1t to be deficient In this valu-
able vitamin G. The reason for this
is that this particular vitamin Ia very
unstable, is easily destroyed by cook
Ing and 1t appears that the body can
not store up this vltamin for any
length Of time, 30 we need our new

UNCLE SAM
BY Francis G. Blair

BY Francis G Blair
You ask me who is Uncle Sam?
I modestly reply am.
These hungry urchns meanly dressed
These mothers sucking babes at breast
These traffic cops along the street,
These rushing crowds eager feet,
These thousands caught in fortunes jam
All these, and you and !. are Uncle Sam
All farmers working in the field,
All bankers making dollars yield,
All those who teach preach pray,
All honest workers, night and day,
All mountebanks who cheat and sham
All these, and you and !, are Uncle Sam
This miner climbing from the mine,
This boot-black calling for your shine,
This lawyer pleading at the bar,
This doctor rushing by in car,
This druggist measuring gill and gram
All these, and you and |, are Uncle Sam.
Those prosperous in high estate,
Those beggars waiting at the gate,
Those morons breeding in the slurns,
Those soldiers stepping to the drums,
Those topers swigging down their dram
All these, and you and !, Uncle Sam.
Not high topped hat nor stripes nor bars,
Not gaudy cot, bedecked with stars,
Not wiskered chin nor pointed nose,
Not gawky form from head to toes,
Not Yankee Doode's slap and slam
Not any or all of these are Uncle Sam
But pioneers on land and sea-
Unnumbered millions yet to be
Of noble men who work and plan
To build and guard their native land
Who daily do their civic share
Unfnchingly and unaware
Of those who praise or those who damn
All these, and you and |, Uncle Sam.

WASHINGTON, December 9--If the
opening numbers are true indication
of what the nation may expect from
the current congressional political show,
the winter and spring months will keep
the public in turmoil. With partisan
control changed it is small wonder that
the participants in the spectacle should
be excited at the pounding of drums
in every quarter The echoes are heard
in the drawing rooms, for the congress
sional season means endless debate by
day and endless rounds of entertain
ment at night The Presidents report
on the state of the union has been
received by hostile Congress and is
now in hssecting committees.

PROFITABLY UTILIZING LEISURE TIME

few years ago certain publishers Of educational books
a waged intensive advertising to tell the public
what great things an individual could do by devotng fiji
teen minutes day this that the other thing The
advertisements were intended sell books but the thought
they expressed worthy Of repetition for unselfish
poses
When Richard H. Waldo president of Mcclure News

many world problems could be solved in leisure time he
had no books to sell He selfish thought behind that
statement It is fact that nearly all of the great
phmens Of the past conceived in leisure moments
and would be merely repetition Of history per-
enjoying hour Of leisure would conceive thought
which would lead the solution Of present day prob

It is possible acquire an education in fifteen minutes
day Three hundred and sxtyfive such periods would
be nnetyone hours and fifteen minutes In ten years
would have devoted study 92 hours and 80 minutes
time than college graduate has spent in class
And this study, because Of the short periods in which
concentration would be maintained would be far
productive than the average college
1t brief periods Of study oft repeated that pro-
duced minds which hold in today 1t
leisure turned to creative effort that produced of the
greatest gems Of which have lived through the

dreams much more often-much easiy-devoed
to degeneratng activities to just plain ideness But
though the majority of people abuse their leisure
