Book Mending Valuable.

A total of 40 rural schools have had
library books mended under the WPA
project sponsored and supervised by
this office during the past two and
one-half years. In addition to that
we took care of the bookmending at
the Brook Park and Hinckley high
schools. Over $4,000 books have been
mended. This is worth $4,000 to
So, 900 and the cost for materials paid
by the districts served has been less
than $780, This is less than five per-
cent of value We have five rural
schools now on the waiting list. We
hope that this valuable WPA service
will not be discontinued until all
schools have been served.

What will your sons have to be

would call in their employees and
explain to them the difficulties
their enterprise faces, am sure,
that they would cooperate to
the limit.
Labor you figure out how
much it has cost you to get
higher wages and how much
more you have been able to buy
since the increase in your wage.
I am sure that you have paid
out more and that you will find,
that increased wage has de-
creased the purchasing power of
the dollar. It is also better for
you to join hands with your
employer, as his problem is your
problem. Offer some sacrifice
to help yourself and others out
of the present difficulty. Is not
half a loaf better than no bread
at all. Don't you owe it to your
family and your country to
salvage all you can for better
future. See how nuch better

Are We Nice or Men?
Have we, as a nation, become
so weak we can no longer de-
mand respect for our flag. We
want peace, but our cringing
attitude is not the way to avoid
war.
Our lame-duck diplomats have
taken a sweet shellacking.
Japan not only admitted sink
ing our ships, they Dragged
about it and ordered us to get
our citizens out Of China.
If Japan had even declared
war we should demand in
demnity for all damage done
our citizens, but not having de-
clared war they are just muir
derous outlaws imposing their
will upon defenseless people and
should be punished as such.
If he let them drive US out Of
China we may as well be pre-
pared to keep running. No ma
ton can prosper without respect
and foreign trade, and If we
persist in turning the other
cheek we will not only lose our
independence, but will eventu-
ally become vassals of Japan or
