TENDING THE FURNACE

In millions of homes the men de-
scend to the lower regions daily
row. to wrestle with the heater. If
they have a good furnace and know
Row to run il. the labOrs are not so
cnerous. 1t is a satisfaction TO do
anything well. The skilful fire tender
is entitled to the praise of his house
bold. if the fire keeps the house at
summer heat.
If the critter in the cellar is worn
cut or improperly constructed. his
fretting and fuming may still leave
the home folks shivering. He may
run downstairs a dozen times a day
and shake the fuel bed until the
house resOunds, without producing
the needed heat. There is some art

heavy draft was left wide open,

WAR EXPORTS TO JAPAN

Shall the United States continue
TO ship war supplies to Japan. since
that country will use such weapons
to throw their cruel bombs OH Chi
nese cities and wipe out the lives
of countless non-combatants? Many
people say No, and are moving for
an embargo TO stop such sales.
The Chinese also buy war supplies
of our country. and could hardly
have kept fighting if it had not been
for American munitions. Our people
don't want to get into that war, but
they hate TO see the Japanese rain
death on the unoffending Chinese.

such savage attack.
Our government might well tell

OUT OF TOWN TRADE

The success of local business in
a town and the ability of the work
ers in retail trade to earn good pay,
depends to a considerable extent on
the success which these stores have
in attracting patronage from the
surrounding country.
Such efforts will be greatly aided,
il the employees of towns stores
are keen to win and retain the ac-
quaintance and friendship of the
people who come in from outside. If
some lady comes in from 10 or 25
miles away. it is very cheering to her
if some clerk can recall her name
and greet her as friendly acquaint-
ance. 1t makes her think that the
people in that store are very wide
awake and intelligent folks. and she
will in all probability keep on trad
ing there

HELPING HAND TO OLD AGE

Under the federal social security
law, wage earners who become IS
after January l and retire from
regular work will receive a monthly
income for life. Dependents of wage
earners who die after January l will
also become beneficiaries. Thus the
country seeks to prove TO the world
that the United States takes care of
those who need help, and that people
who live industrious lives are en-
titled to some reward in old age.
The benefits under this law are
far from being large. If they are
made too generous, the people who
have to pay the taxes for them should
also be considered. People who are
able to work and can obtain jobs af-
ter reaching 65. will usually do well
to keep on doing so. Many people
who have retired prematurely from
4 life of activity felt themselves
growing rusty when the machine of
their life's toll slowed down and
stopped.
