So far as food is concerned, it is
very true that everyone of us should
try to prevent waste, should practice
a reasonable economy—but that does
not mean that anybody should go
without sufficient wholesome food,
that we should all begin to live on
rice and potato parings, that we
should eease to have good bread and
butter on our tables, and meat and
vegetables, tea and coffee, cake and
pie, tqo., and begin to subsist like
Chinamen.
All that food economy means is
that people should stop every form
of waste.
The food reserves of the world and
the supplies of the coming harvests
will not be enough to feed our own
people and the peoples of hungry Eu-
rope.
The reasons why we should save
food does not apply to other forms of
necessities and of comforts. ____
We do not have to wear old- rag-
ged clothes, or to go around with our
toes sticking out of our shoes, or
with the tops of our heads out of
our hats because the peoples of Eu-
rope may possibly be short of now
clothes and spring styles. Those
things do not affect life.
The people of Europe will not die
because the men do not have new
suits, or the women now gowns. Nei-
ther will the peoples of Europe be
any better off if our men and women
go without new clothes and pretty
clothes.
As a matter of fact the peoples of
Europe will be worse off if American
men and women all stop buying and
using comforts and luxuries, because
such a policy would have a disastrous
effect upon all forms .of business and
employment here, and we would soon
have no surplus wealth with which
to help hungry and distressed Eu-
rope.
Let us all live just as well as usual,
eat good food and plenty of it, wear
just as good clothes as we are able to
purchase, go to the theatres, see the
movies, keep all forms of business go-
ing and prosperous, and so be more
comfortable and happy ourselves,
more able to give our government
the revenues it needs, more able to
carry on strong and vigorous war-
fare, more likely to win victory, and
far more able to help and to sustain
the peoples of Europe, both during
the course of this dreadful war and
after this dreadful war shall have
happily come to an end.

There is that scattereth and yet in-
creaseth, says the Book.
The writer of the Book of Prov-
erbs was not only a religious teacher,
but also a man who had studied eco-
nomics to some purpose.
He was not shallow enough to ac-
cept the Poor Richard theory. .
He knew that no man and uo na-
tion ever got rich by saving pennies.
As a matter of fact, the only meth-
od by which a nation can increase its
business is to do business.
The only way In which a nation
can increase its wealth is tc produce
more wealth, and the only way in
which more production can be en-
couraged is by more consumption.
There is nothing truer in the world
than the saying that the more a n-
tion spends the more it has.
It is very true that an individual
may ruin himself by spending too
much and buying too much.
But this is not true, and never was
true, and never will be true of a na-
tion.
The only wealth that does one any
good, and that increases itself, is
wealth that is In the process of being
exchanged and of being consumed—
that wealth which the text book writ-
ers call dynamic wealth.
Millions of dollars’ worth of cloth-
ing, food and other forms of wealth
might be stacked miles high at the
North Pole' and they would not add
one cent’s worth to the prosperity of
any country, simply because this
wealth could not be ranched to be
distributed and to be consumed.
. Production makes nobody rich un-
ices there is an equivalent consump-
tion.
Manufacturers cannot possibly
keep their plants going and pay their
employes wages unless there is a free
buying of manufactured goods.
Half of the farmers of the country
would have to discharge their help
and go ot of business inside of a
month if every American began to
live on a Chinaman’s ration.
Half the people employed in stores,
offices and transportation concerns
and industrial plants would be out of
work and out of wages, idle and hun-
gry, In a very short time if everybody
adopted the foolish policy of hiding
all the money he could in a bank or
in a sock and of getting along with
bid clothes, old shoes, poor food and
a minimum of the necessities and
comforts and luxuries of life.
This proposition is so plain, so self-
evident, that we are amased when we
hear men in public life, and even men
prominent in business, advising ev-
erybody to cut down expenses, to live,
in a poorer way and to spend as lit-
tle as they can.

the word. The bad odor given to it
arises out of the fact that heretofore
conscription enrollment was ' not
adopted until a volunteer system had
exhausted itself, and hence only
those were enrolled who had shown
a lack of patriotism. There would
never have been any sinister reflec-
tion in conscription if It had been ap:
plied only to universal compulsory
military service at the outset. In
the present condition there is noth-
ing in the word to imply shirkers or
skulkers. -It is only those who seek
to avoid conscription who are re-
fleeted on.—Comanche Vanguard.
Newspapers of the United States
are today doing as much or more for
the government than any other class
of.business institutions. Their col-
umns are filled daily with appeals in
behalf af the liberty loan bonds, in
behalf of recruiting for the army and
navy. And for these things they re-
ceive no pay. While providing ap-
propriations to cover every other
sort ofexpenae incidental to the war,
not a dime was provided for publle-
ity, other than what could be fur-
nished by the government printing
office. It appears to be the expecta-
tion of congressmen and senators
that such advertising as is necessary
for war purposes will be given free
by the newspapers. And this expec-
tation is being shown to be correct.
Nor are the newspapers complaining.
They are patriotic. and are willing to
do their bit in any way the govern-
ment may desire. But it would seem

senators, who take the co-operation
of the newspapers for granted,

(Leslie’s Weakly.)
Demagogic attacks on the railways
have misled the people Into the
grossest misconception of the real
situation. The popular prejudice has
been reflected recently In the attitude
of some interests in opposition to a
fair increase in railroad rates.
It was of no avail to point out that
a reasonable increase in rates would
not add half a cent to the cost of a
pair of shoes or as much as a postage
stamp to the coot "of a suit of clothes.

their products, had doubled and tre-

IF you are not in touch with your local banker,
you and the bank lose. The banker needs
your business, but you also need the banker in
your business. If you have been a steady de-
positor, a square man, a good customer, the
' banker knows it; If hard luck should strike
you, your being in close touch with the banker
would help some. Successful men have a thing
they call “Credit.” They guard it. ’They
know its worth. You can obtain it. Do busi-

touch with your banker as with your family

With the summer days comes a
longing. intense, undeniable to get
away from the busy world and to
live life in reality in the cool, dark
woods besides the quiet waters of
some stream far from human habita-
tion. To listen to the soothing music
of the myriad voices of Insect, bird
and animal life, and to forget the
nerve rasping voices of the people
whom God created in His own image,
but who long since have lost almost
all traces of the pattern. We are
sometimes constrained to believe
that in the point of blessings the In-
dian must be God’s chosen people.
Anyway we are longing for solitude
and idleness and the primitive life in
the big woods.
"Enjoy it while paying for it," is
the sentiment set out for the benefit
of nearly 10,400 employes of the Cot-
ton Belt Railroad who are urged to
"do their bit" in buying a Liberty
Loan Bond. The Company announc-
ed In a circular over the signature of
Edwin Gould, Chairman of the Board,
and J. M. Herbert. Vice President of
the St. Louis Southwestern Ry. and
President of the Texas Company,
that the railroad has arranged for
each employe to pay for the subscrip-
tion in ten equal monthly install-
ments. The cirular adds that the
investment, besides being a patriotic
- act, is a safe one. If an employe
should leave the company the obli-
gation to subscribe for bond ceases
and the moneys paid on account will
be refunded to him. The importance
of doing something for Our country
—to fight or put up our money—is
urged by Mr. Gould and Mr. Herbert.

homes among us to other cities. Mr.
Lowry says of the teachers snd sol-
dier boys:
’’School is out and from our little
city many faces are missed. The
teachers who. reside out of the city
have returned to their homes, and
some of them will not return to us.
The faces of these women and man
had grown familiar in our social and
church life and all had learned to
like them, for their work’s sake and
for their sunny dispositions and help-
tulness. We all await with pleasant
anticipations the return of those who
are to be with us again, and we shall
remember kindly those who are to
labor in other fields. May their lots
bo cast In pleasant places.
"And this reminds us that we are
m»Ming other faces and soon are to
miss many more. Already several of
our young men are with the armies
of their country at points "distant
from their homes and loved ones.
Many others have enlisted and soon
vihers will respond to the selective
draft and take up arms in the honor
aad defense of their country. The
valistment in this righteous cause
will take from us the beet young
manhood of our town nnd country.
They are young men of strong arms
to whom we muet look for the sup-
port of our beloved lahd In-days to
come. It is to them we have looked
for the development of our country’s
resources, for the fostering of our
'nstitutions end the saving of our
'deals. They have been our hope for
.he maintenance of Right and all the
holy principles that make a people
nd a nation great. But they are al-
io our hope for the perpetuation of
• he priceless liberties bequeathed us
by the fathers, nnd now they must
take up the fight that this heritage,
prised even shove life itself, may not
be trodden under foot by unholy ene-
mies. They are strong, noble young
fellows, and the smile upon their lips
and the twinkle in their eyes are our
joy and our pride. We shall miss
them—miss them keenly—-and our
lives will be lonely* and sad at times
because their voices are not heard.
But this we know—the boys have the
true American spirit and wherever
duty calls they will not shirk or
quail..' And when the great fight for
the preservation of American liber-
tiee is over we know that we shall be
proud of them. Those who return
will receive the plaudits of q grateful
people, and should any fail to return
which God forbid—we know that our
country will be -enriched by their
deeds of valor end their glory and
fame will never perish from the
earth.", %
