Two Couples We'd
In ClOvertOn Home

The Earl Jones home west of Clo-
verton was the scene of a pretty
double wedding Sunday afternoon
when Miss Virginia Halsted of Brain
erd, became the bride of Mr.. Robert
Jones of Madison, Wis, and Miss
Betty Jones of Cloverton, the bride
of Mr.. Alfred Profit, also of Clover
ton.
Wesley Jones, brother of the
groom, and Miss Vivian Halsted, sis
ter of the bride, attended the first
couple, and George Bell and Miss
Lorna Jones attended the other pair

ficiated.
After the ceremony a buffet lunch
was served. Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Jones left Sunday evening for Madi-
son, Wis, where the former is at
tending naval training school. Mr.
and Mrs. Alfred Profit will make
their home on the Profit farm.
Best wishes and congratulations
are extended to the newlyweds by

nouncement of victory but has con-
fined itself to routine reports in
dicating that everything is going
along well; there is a hope that the
enemy may be driven off the islands
and thus be frustrated in his ambi-
ton to make direct attack on Aus
tralia, and what is known is that
the Japanese have suffered a lot OF
very serious losses. That the Amer
leans have had casualties, too, goes
without saying because, after all,
war is war, and all those who parti-
cipate in it do suffer losses. Ad-
hitting that, the United States navy
hints that enemy losses
have been the heaviest, and that the
battle will 60 on until the japanese
have been forced to retreat.
Today it looks as though the
enemy will have to abandon his
possible plans of invading the
Australian continent and New
Zealand, and that, exactly, is
what the fighting men of Amer
lea want to accomplish.
We have no way of telling how

Limit Deferments
After August 20

On and after August 20, selective
service local boards are no longer
authorized to grant stays of induc-
ton or deferments to registrants ap-
plying for a commission or enlisting
in the armed forces, according to an
announcement by Colonel J. E. Mel
son, state director of selective serv-
ice. Regulations covering this change
have been received from Washington
and distributed to all local boards.
1t was stated that the reason for
this change is that many registrants
wait until they are about to be in
Quoted before attempting to enlist
in one of the other services or to
make application for commission.
This has resulted in unnecessary de-
lay in the registrant's entry into
service.
Def term nts or postponements
which have been granted before
August 20 will be continued for the
period for which granted. However,
it was emphasized that after this
date, no continuation, new deferment
or postponement will be made, nor
will those in existence be extended.

has been in charge of extension work
in Pine county since April 1886, has
accepted a similar position in Fill
more county and will leave some
time in September, according to pres
ent plans.

sive worker here and has made q
large circle of friends and acquaint-
ances who will regret to see him
leave. He has been very active and
interested in All Club work in Pine

and other activities of importance in

years his scope of work and duties
has been increased due to war con-
ditions and he has lent aid in or

offices required under the nation
wide setups.
No successor to Mr.. McMillin has

Honest Thinking
Vital Necessity
Speaker Claims
Americans WOrshipping
Too Long at Altar of Pri-
vate Profit Capitalism.

More honest thinking and a recog-
milton of the responsibility to think
harder and straighter is vitality nee
essary for the good of a community
and the nation as whole, declared
Glenn Thompson, educational direc-
tor of the Midland Cooperative
Wholesale, Minneapolis, speaking at
the midsummer festival in the Askov
village park Sunday afternoon.
Citing Benjamin Disraeli, English
statesman, he said that people make
communities, but institutions make
nations" Now, as never before, peo-
pie must search for the truth. The
nation is deeply involved in the pres
ent turmoil and must remain fixed
in unity and purpose.
Earth Shrinking Rapidly.
Mr.. Thompson stated that two
events which greatly aided in bring
ing America closer to the old world
was the laying of the Atlantic cable
and the opening of the Panama
canal, but that the earth has been
shrinking much more rapidly in re-
cent years because of faster trans
portation, especially by air.
Capitalism is the basis of British
empirism, he said, and India is the
Gaping stone of the empire. If that
country falls out, the empire COL
lapses.
People Themselves to Blame.
Taking up the large institutions
and corporations in this country, the
speaker emphasized that Americans
have been worshipping too long at
the altar of private capitalism, that
American firms had "sold out" in
several instances in the past to our
present enemies, and that we must
now pay in "blood, sweat and tears"
Mr.. Thompson added that the fault
lies with the American people as
they had helped to make the large
institutions great.
The speaker was introduced by
Almer Ecklund and singing by the
audience preceded the address Lyle
Leatherman of Hinckley, led in the
singing, and Miss Wave Wentworth
of Cambridge, played the accordion.
Lunch, sports and games were also
on the afternoons program.
A large and enthusiastic crowd
was on hand for the evenings enter
tainment, featured by pageant, and
the days events terminated with
folk-dancing to accordion music by
Miss Wentworth.

Lining Costs, Wages Must

and farm prices. By 1929 the "call''
had sucked 81 billion dollars out of
our sails and we hit the bottom with
a thud, stripped of every protection
from the harsh winds of deflation-
depression.
Going Down Hurt.
1t was not the going up, nor the
being up, that hurt. It was the
coming down, the landing" that
hurt. We liked it up there. Bust
nessmen liked it. Then why did we
come down? Because the lifting
power was shut off. Why was it
shut off? Because when money is
plentiful it is cheap (the law of sup
ply and demand). Money ought al
ways to be cheap, because when
money is cheap goods and services
are high. These ought always to
be high-higher than money, or as
high. But money-dealers want dear
money and cheap labor, cheap raw
materials.
It's all a matter of RELATIVELY. If
we sell (labor or raw materially at
a low price you are not hurt if you
can buy at low Gun 'fixed) price,
but the blanket is narrow and many
are out in the cold. If you sell at a
high price (either labor or raw ma
terials), even though you buy fin
ished goods at high price you are
not hurt, but the blanket is larger
and more people get under it.
Must Balance.
The relative position of wages.
salaries and other income, and prices
(the cost of living), must be main

high, the other low. AS money in

production increases, or even poten-

creased production), and prices go
