AT GARRISON’S DOOR Several days ago there was a no- tice posted on the door of the office of the secretary of war, which read as follows: “Lindley M. Garrison, secretary of war, placed principle above political expediency. Of course, he could not remain in Wood- row Wilson’s cabinet.” As soon as some of the senior offi- cers arrived it was torn down but not until hundreds had read it. It is worthy to be read by the en- tire people of the United States and it is worthy of much consideration this year—the year of presidential election.

IDEA IS SIMPLE. Some persons wonder how the Pay- Up idea works. For example, sup- pose you pay a man a dollar that you owe him. He would owe that dollar to the butcher and run and pay him. Thus two debts are settled. The butcher would owe the harness ma- ket and gzo and pay him. Three debts are settled. The harness ma- ker owes the grocer and would run and pay him. Four debts are paid. You would bring in your eggs, and the grocer would pay you the same dollar. There you have it. Every one would pay everyone else, and in the end all would be paid. None would be out much of anything except debt. Let’s start the movement in this city without delay. Get the dollars moving. If you owe a bill that is due before Pay-Up Week don‘t pay it until Pay-Up Week gets here. If you owe a bill that is not due until a short time after Pay-Up Week pay it during Pay-Up Week. Make the cash hum in that week. This Pay-Up Week is becoming na- % tional in its scope. In the cities where it has been tried out the re- sults have exceeded expectations.

EDUCATION—HARD TIMES It has been pointed out by several ebb in economic conditions a larger| number of students are registering in our universities than in prosperous It is accepted by those who lmvev made observations upon this point | that in the professional department the increase is most marked in hard times, because business reverses cause men to realize that the mental capi- tal required for professional vocations offers more enduring asset than others. Dentistry appears to be the most favorite study, probably because it is partly mechanical vocation, which the people are beginning to appreci- ate more and more owing to the re- ports of school inspectors. It is a remarkable fact that 2,645 dental students are registered in seven of our universities. The num- ber regisiered in seven of our ten largest universities aggregates 70,- 821. { —_— AN INDIAN COUNTRY The chief curse of the Indian Every man should smoke the home made cigars, es!)ecially when they're better—ask for Don Almo next time.
