DON'T Be A KNOCKER

We like to see a man stand
up for his home town, even if
it has only a depot and general
store. He ought to stand up
for it if he lives there. The
other day a fellow started to
knock on the town before a
booster. The booster let him
self run down and then turned
in and began to tell him about
the good things the town had.
He had two good things for
every knock and simply talked
the fellow off the map. 1t is
the right way to boost. When
you meet a knocker give him
as good as he sends and then
some.
The more dogs the poor man
has the closer the wolf crowds
to his door. st. John Herald.

CAUSE OF CRIME

Behind crime is the love oi
money. And it is the too-great
love of money that makes the
banditry of today. All the
teaching in the schools, whether
frills or facts. is not worth Sc
much as the single lesson that
may be taught a child: The
lesson that money, is not the
chief end of life. The great
purpose of life remains, as it al
ways has been, happiness. But
to attain happiness there must
come first that more direct OBJ
jective which has been defined
as the development of character
and the contribution to life OF
something that is wholesome
and sweet and constructive.
something that will be lasting.
Teach the child that the greed
for money is back of most Of
our present day crime and
misery, and you will have
taught a lesson that is worth
more than all the lessons in the
world .--Nogales Daily Herald.

PAY'N TAkIT Store
ROBBED MONDAY NIGHT

When A. ]. Dunaway, Mgr
of Pay'n Takit, arrived at the
store Tuesday morning he found
that robbers had again made
them a visit. Entrance was
gained by breaking the plate
glass in the lower part of the
north door through which the
thieves entered and made their
exit.
Mr.. Dunaway, living a half
block from the store was waken-
ed by the sound of crashing
glass, but couldn't locate the
direction of the noise and failed
therefore to investigate.
Some small change was taken
from the cash register but it is
impossible to check up on the
goods taken. The local officers
and representatives from the
Sheriff's office in Florence were
investigating with no results in
identifying the thieves as yet,
who apparently were very
unmannerly or illiterate to
completely ignore a sign just
above the broken glass on the
door, which read, please Use

BANKLESS VILLAGE
IGNORES THE DOLLAR

Tonopah, Nev.---The little
farming village of Yerington,
New, is a bankless town, It's
lone bank closed it's doors some
months ago.
There is little money in cir
culation in Yerington, the trad
ing point for a rich community;
that is, it is rich in cattle, sheep
hogs, hay, dairy products and
vegetables.
eve must eat, our children
must be clothed, we must keep
them in school," the farmers
and ranchers told the Yerington
merchants. We will trade you
meat, our dairy products, our
hay and wood and vegetables
for the things we need and
which you have"
"Okay" said the grocer and
the butcher and the rest of
them.
And trading is now brisk in
this little town; the farmers and
the ranchers, their wives and
their children are well clothed
and eating regularly, and all
without one dollar changing
hands.
Money is a handy thing to
have around, one farmer said,
"but we have found we can get
along without it and live fairly
well until the depression blows
over. Phoenix Messenger.

Y. C. WHITE TAKES
OFFICE OF STATE
SUPT. OF BANKS

Mr.. Lloyd Thomas, recently
appointed superintendent of
banks by Gov. Hunt, rendered
his resignation Tuesday, which
Gov. Moeur accepted and We'd
nesday morning Y. G. White of
Coolidge took the oath of Office
and assumed the duties as state
superintendent of banks. Mr..
White announced the retention
temporarily of Mr.. Thomas as
chief bank examiner for the de-
partment.
Mr.. Whites many Coolidge
trends are greatly pleased over
the appointment of one of their
highly esteemed citizens and
are confident that he will per-
form the duties of this promi-
nent office in his usual efficient
and courteous manner.
The following clipping was
taken from the Lufkin Daily
News and shows the high es-
TEEN in which Mr.. White was
held there.
According to a recent issue of the
Arizona Republic, morning news
paper published at Phoenix, Y. C..
White, former citizen of Lufkin,
has been named by Governor Moeur,
recently electec governor of the
Valentine state, as Superintendent
of Banking of Arizona. In speaking
of the appointment of Mr.. White
the Arizona paper says:
''Mr. White, who succeeds Lloyd
Thomas as state superintendent of
banks, is a former Scottsdale bank
er and business man. He is secre-
tary of the state democratic central
committee and has been prominent
in democratic politics for number
of years. His appointment must be
confirmed by the senate" :"
1t will be remembered by many
in Lufkin that during 1918 and 1919
Mr.. White was cashier of the Citi-
zens State Bank of this city, and 10
more popular citizen or banker ever
lived in Lufkin. He retired from
the bank here voluntarily to enter
the banking business in Arizona and
has been most successful IN all his
business transactions. With his
wide experience in business, his re-
markable success in banking, coupl-
ed with his we'll known rugged hon
esty, his many Lufkin friends see
only bright future for him in this
new position, and feel confident that
ievery citizen of Arizona connected
n any way with the banking bus l.
ness will be given square deal in
every instance.

Ex- President Coolidge Dies Thursday
ADVERTISING WILL AID
TO REMOVE DEPRESSION

Roger Babson, famed statis-
tician and financial expert says
this week in a copywritten
article that advertising will, be
"a deciding factor to help turn
the tide of the depression, as it
will start people who can buy,
TO buying the necessities of life.
Babson says in his comment
Anybody who breaches econ
omy today is just as crazy and
dangerous as those who preach
ed extravaganza in 1929. To
start the wheels of business roll
ling we must provide people not
only with the purch asing medi-
um but with the purchasing de-
sire. Admittedly a great many
people cannot buy more than
they are now buying; but there
are great many others who
can buy and won't. The reason
they won't is because they have
acquired the economy COM
plex." 1t has become fashion
able now to stint and scrape,
just as it was fashionable in
1929 to spend and splurge.
Advertising has a great op-
portunity and an urgent duty
to change the public fashion
from false economy to construc-
tive spending. The argument
that you can't sell now because
purchasing power is low, is an
argument of "defeatism." We
can never bring back prosperity
by such talk. The only way to
increase purchasing power is to
use the purchasing power we
now have. The way to pry
loose boarded dollars and put
them into circulation and ser
vice is to create a strong desire
to buy. That is the advertiser s
and salesman's job. 1t is more
than a matter of the well-being
and prosperity of 123, 100000
people.
Advertising in 1888 must be
encouraged, expanded and i'm
proved. People must be inspir-
ed to buy most at lowest prices
instead of waiting to buy less at
higher prices.
about the only things that
have been thoroughly advertis-
ed for the past two years are
economy" and depression. !"
Now is the Psychological time,
with business gradually starting
on the uptrend, to advertise
profitable spending" and busi-
ness recovery. .'-Ex.

Since His Illness Opens
At Paramount Today

Joe E. Brown is back. Back at the

seen on the screen today in what is
claimed to be his greatest comedy hit
of all time, You Said Mouthful"
Back from a hospital siege where
the saw bones" chopped out his ap-
pendix, two Or three vertebrae and al
most everything else except his fun
1ly bone. The surgeons just couldn't
saw through that funny bone. 1t was
there to stay. And now Joe is here
again with more pep. verve and elan
than he has ever displayed before.
There's nothing funny about a
hospital said Joe. but it makes you
want to whoop and holler and raise
Cain when you get out. you're SO glad
The reaction makes you want to stir
up lot of fun
And Joe certainly did it in his lat
est First National picture in which
he wins marathon swimming race,
after having been mistaken for the
champion, although he couldn't swim
q stroke. incidentally Joe is tipped
off an aquaplane, is nearly chewed
up by fishes, is caught in seaWeed and
nearly drowned. Scores Of new and
hilarious gags add to the fun of the
action. which is said to be fast and
furious from start to finish.
Ginger Rogers, who played with Joe
IN THE Tenderfoot,' is again his
leading lady, her beauty and vivacity
being an excellent foil to Joes char

wins to heroism under the most pecu-
