Money-its making and using-is
matter which constantly concerns
all Of US as long as we live In this
world. 1t is the medium of ex-
change whereby the labors of one
man may be exchanged for the la
bors of another, in the purchase OF
goods and services. 1t may be used
to send messenger to the ends of
the earth with the good news of
salvation or, on the other hand, 1t
may be the ready instrument to de-
stroy both body and soul of those
who abuse it. Man may have mon
ey, and be a blessing, or money may
have man, and be curse.
1. The Right Spirit in the Use Of
Money prov. 11:24-26).
What man does with his money
is only a reflection of what he is in
his inmost life. The spirit which
Withholds unless there is return
to itself in pleasure or profit is a
selfish and ungodly spirit. To at
tempt to present ones self before
the world as a follower of Christ
and to have that attitude toward
what one possesses is to deny by
ones acts the testimony Of ones
lips.
Not all scattering" ". 2D is
commendable. 1t is possible to be
careless and wasteful and that nei-
Their honors God nor helps our fellow
men. Then, too, man may scat
ter literally, as the farmer does
when he sows seed, knowing that he
will have richer harvest for him
self. That is only a different type of
selfshness.
The man who knows God, that
giveth to all men literally" DANES
1:5), scatters not only his money.
but his riches of mind and spirit in
his life and service. He gives him
self and what he has to God-and
to man as he serves God-and rich
is his reward. In sad contrast is
the man who keeps his possessions,
but finds that withal he has only
barren leanness of soul and life.
III. The Good and Bad Use of
Money wv. 27-29.
The man who looks for good finds
it, and the one who looks for trouble
finds that, too. That is true in the
use of money as well as elsewhere
in life. One way to end up in GER
tain disappointment is to put your
trust in money, for, while it opens
many doors, it cannot open the door
to heaven, and, while it can buy
most things, it cannot buy health
and happiness. To seek good, seek
the Lord and His righteousness, and
you will flourish as a branch" "
You may not have the riches of this
earth, but you will prosper in those
things which are of eternal val
ue. You will be wise in the conduct
of the affairs of your own house

wise of heart"
I'LL. The Best Use of Money WV.

One Of Americas leading bust
ness analysts and statisticians said
some years ago that the best invest
ment of funds was in the winning OF
souls to Jesus Christ. Had man ex-

have gone for that purpose, at the
right time, we might have been
spared the spending Of billions OF

Two New Libby

At the meeting of the Libby city
council Tuesday night, two new
councilmen were indicted into of
flee, filling vacancies caused by two
designations Office Maize takes the
place of John FINLAND in the First
ward and George Wood that of
Lionel Shaurette in the Second
Ward. Both Mr.. Shaurette and Mr..
FINLAND have served the city faith
fully and with ability but decided
to tender their designations because
new arrangements at the sawmill
requires them to put in consider
able night work.
Much of the councils time was
taken up with discussion of side
walk matters. WPA crews are now
working on a sidewalk on Montana
avenue, extending from 10th street
to Cedar-at the city limits. This
will be gravel walk, with an oiled
surface 1t is being built SO as to
keep pedestrians from using the
street.
Mayor Parker says that D. o.

nate radio interference. He says,
however, that it is slow work and
will require time. There is a grow
ing conviction among exasperated
citizens that persistent violators
ought to be taken into court and

the jump all ready for snow. One OF
the projects that the members are

New Warehouse

Announcement was made by
County Commissioner James Ma
honey this morning that Lincoln
county will construct new ware
house at the corner of California
Ave, and First street, construction
to begin within the next 10 days or
two weeks.
According to specifications, the

and will be two story structure.
The commissioners have set aside
$4,000 in the budget to take care of
the finances and local labor will be
used altogether.
Said Commissioner Mahoney, THE
question has been asked up and
down the streets of Libby ever since
the completion of the new court
house, What are they going to do
with the old court house. This
question is still being asked and the
board of county commissioners soon
hope to present the answer"
For the past several years the old
court house building has been used
to house the surplus commodity

Mr. Mahoney stated, "As to the
longevity of these institutions no
one can tell so the upper floors of
the new county building will house
them. When the building is COM
pleted, that will leave the county
commissioners at liberty to dispose
Of the old court house the best Way
they see fit"
The character of construction will
be concrete sidewalks six feet high.
The first floor will be pretty well

Of the commissioners.
