If all the widow’s and old men’s tears that are shed over losses in fake oil stock schemes were spilled in one place there would be another great salt lake in the United States. If a small percentage of this money was invested and put to work at home, every city and town in the country would be a better place to live in and the investors would reap better returns. A man does not advertise his bad investments, so very little is really known of the vast amount of money which pours into the “get-rich-quick” rat hole every year and enables visionary promoters to ride around in high priced automobiles. The same ' money invested at home might enable the city or town to have more electric lights, better gas and telephone service, better transportation, enable small industries to enlarge their operations .and bring more people to the city, which would benefit everybody. And the money would be working at home, where the thrifty man or woman could watch it work. . ——0 * ARE PRICES SKIDDING? The department of labor says that twenty-seven out of forty-three articles going into the family market basket have decreased .in .price within the month. The same department found that ten out of fourteen representative industries showed & decrease in the number of employes last month, Wheat, flour, cotton, textiles, automobiles, leather and even sugar, has moved downward. Most of the readjustments are arriving gradually, and there is evidence that the country is returning to the sanity of normal periods. Many leading manufacturers ‘have reached the conclusion that they can help in getting things back to normal, by pocketing a loss on supplies on hand. They believe that this policy will eventually work out to their own good, and that of the country. ( o . ‘A Chicago school teacher recently gave up-his job and opened up a beauty shop. He remarked, in substance, that in these days the man who dispenses knowledge has nothing before him but the poor house, while wealth and fame awaits the fellow who can hang artificial beauty onto an ugly mug. i Not satisfied with: grabbing off nearly all of the.presi- dential nominees, Ohio now boasts a child that was born with an extra finger on each hand and an extra toe.on each foot, all perfectly formed.

BRING RESULTS ‘Communica- | at !'_‘Zider- )y St. Paul, Oct. 23.—Bachelor hunt-|, ! $268,050 In mesota will join .in the observance of Salvation Army Sunday, October tenth. Following Governor Burnquist's proclama- tion petting aside the week’ of October 11 to October 18 as Home Service Week in Minne- sota, and his urging that Zalvation Army Sunday be fittingly remembered in the State, numerous assurances of co-operation and sapport have been received at Divisional Headquarters cf the Army from clergymen of all .ge- nominations. ? Congregations in nedrly all of the) churches. will hear of the Salvation Army activities. The Army’'s 1920 Home' Service Program will bring to every county the sixteen major activi- ties of the Army to aid the local churches in carrying on their teach- ings of social betterment and welfare. It will greatly augmefit the church activities . by..placing at the disposal of the citizens its many Institutions, in¢luding the Rescue Home and Mater- nity Hospital for girls, which already has served every county in Minnesota in more than one instance. " As an evidence of its good faith, through the co-operation and support of more than 1,000 citizers in Minne- gota, the Salvation Army .has estab- lished Advisory Boards in 83 countles. ‘The members of the respective boards will serve as the active representatives of the Army in all respects. Any cases called to the attention of the Board will be referred to the Army Head- quarters in Minneapolis, with recom- mendations for their disposition. If the facilities of the Army will enable it to render assistance, the necessary action will be taken”at the earliest possible moment. But the Boards will g0 much further than that. Not only are they a medium for advising the’ Army of cases called to their attention, but from time to time they will carry on investigations and studies to deter- mine whether there are any conditions in which the army can be of assist- ance.

All Counties to-Aid in Raising State A:fineal. the Rescue Home and Maternity Hos- pital in St. Paul, the care of partially. disabled men at. thefr Industrial Home in Minneapolis, and the discovery of the whereabouts of a number of per- sons who were missing. By the extension of its activities to the rural districts, the Army has sensed the increased demands that will be made for the services it can ren- der. To care for thesé demands, it has arranged for the ‘enlargement of some of its institutions in the State, and for the maintenance of the same. “Because the Salvation Army can be of real service to every community and because practically every. coynty is making use 'of its Institutions, the citizens of these: counties are urged 0 support the Army during Home Ser- ice Week, October 11 to 18, in its efforts to raise $268,050 in Minnesota,” said Mr. Hanke, Chairman of the State Advisory Board. ' “This amount is the lowest ever sub- mitted by the Salvation Army to the people of the State. The Budget was first passed on by the divisional offi- cers of the Northern Division, then ap- proved at Chicago, Headquarters for the Western Territory, by the State Advisory Boartl, and by the County Ad- visory Boards at the State Convention in Minneapolis. “Evesy item in the Budget has been cut to the lowest possible minimum, and in submitting it to the people of this state it is felt that every county can and will raise its apportionment. Failure to do so, will seriously curtail the work mapped out in the Home Ser- vice Program,” g “The Salvation Army’s very exist: ence is founded 'on the need of all mankind for a practical welfare ser- vice and bespeaks for it the support of every one in order that Minnesota ay become as morally clean as it is great and wealthy.” “It should be a matter of pride with every man and woman to make their own community a fit place for their children to grow up. A thorough study of conditions throughout the-state by the/ Advisory Boards has revealed startling .conditiohs of poverty and moral degeneracy,“and the Salvation Army has taken upon itself the task of eliminating, in‘so-far as possible, the many social disofders and festering places of evil.” PAID ADVERTISEMENT.
