It is essential that the state have assistance to care for its obligations. unfll the process of liquidation has been completed and also to tide oyer communities uatil taxes are paid. Even after such a period has passed, the need for assistance will be imperative until mark- eting conditions improve and the state passses through the period of readjustment. There. should be no political strife in meeting the financial trisis in this state. WhatYed up to thie present finaucial impasse is well known to all of us but postmortems don’t pay bills; they won't keep our'schools open and defray the expenses o* government whieh in view of present conditions should be kept as low as possible. That there should be economy and retrenchment in govern- thental expenditures is endorsed as vigorously by thé independents as well as the followers of the nonpartisan league’ regime. There is then no controversy on this point. The argument will me when the legislature begins to cut the cloth to fit the public purse. F “While on the subject of taxes, it is just as well to.call attention to city and county budgets. All publie subdivisions of the state have been, ding money regardless of the taxpayers abil- '¥ to meet the assessments... Cities, counties ‘and other subdivisions must econamize until business conditions become normal. The practice of thrift ig: as-pesential there as: everywhere... ‘No-one is exempt from the general admonition ‘sweepittg| nation to save-so therk may. be more ioney ‘to.carry:on, business in general and to in- crease the ability of the people to pay their, abli- gations promptly. 2. ~“Famarek'is, no exception. Some-of the tax levies made upon citizens and corporationg are rujnous. Many are contesting their taxes id the courts and it iv.well known that if the excessive levies continue, there’ will be a taxpayers strike atid: government will find it hard to function. No-one wants to see'such a condition, There has been ‘an orgy of publie expenditure and the fault is:all of ours in a more or less degree. ‘Tet every political faction get together and ap- ply'the remedy. It is necessary if the state isto get-outside assistance that we give the assurance through proper legislation that all investments will be safe and that obligations will be met promptly when due. ‘Eastern investors are not.coming into the state for sentimental reasons. »1t is a cold blooded pro- position with them and there is only one hisis upor which they, will enter and take our gilt edge securities—for the state is in a sound tinancial Con in—anc that is that wy stick to business fundamentals and practice thrift and wisdom in the administration of public funds. “Itis a mOvement in which all good citizens can join. regardless of former political friction—it: is also a movement we must all cooperate in; if we are to have continued prosperity and enter into the ‘business prosperity: that, is. sure to follow: when the period of deflation hag passed. ~ Let everyone pull together for the pest inter- exts.of. the state—its welfare is the sole\and-only issue confronting the people and there is no royal road to success, except’ hard work and sound economy: ' Since clothing costs less the, girls may wear UNLUCKY LADDERS -. . dfone was asked how it happens to be consid- ered unlucky to walk beneath an upstanding lad-' der. he might be unable to tell. And when. he _ learns. just how this superstition had its origin it is likely he would smile. And the chances are, juat:the same, that. when he met a ladder follow- pat, he'd give it a wide berth, so strong is the superstition instilled. Overt in England in the early days people were hanged very-successfully, but in a primitive way. Usually the chief attraction at one of these cer monies had to walk under a ladder before react. ing his place on the gallows. The ladder leaned against the structure for the convenience of the "executioner. As the victim passed under the lad- der it was fairly certain that: he was soon to be hanged—going to have a piece of bad Inc fact. And_s0;-because of that early tradition, the person’ who passes under a ladder-is supposed to] be @ subject for bad luck. j ‘ "3 upon a real, upbuilding water-power program. |. We procrastinated. Little use of the vast water- power wealth was made, sa mining and_burning Bismacek. 6.00 | Of coal increased stupendously. Fuel famine and| + 6.00 | abnormally high prices halted industry and made living less comfortable for many, Still we: neg-; lected the enormous quantity of water-power| scattered throught the country. The nation | kept on putting the utilization of water-power! off until tomorrow, the while using just enough | {6 demonstrate how much was being lost by not: using more of it. Now, however, it is probable that the country stands upon the threshold of the water-power | age, It spells more power for America. The Sinless Sabbath ladvocates would make our | country the United Saints. F { { yaad THE WORLD’S GREATEST ~ Auguste Comte compiled a still well-known | calendar of the world’s great men, from the.dawn! ‘of history down to about 1820. His list includes only 559, To get this many he included such tiny stars) ws the English Aramatist, Thomas Otway, the American novelist, Fennimore Cooper, and the} Italian‘ composer, Donizetti. Eel One.conclusion that may be drawn from this: ix that many men who might be called great are, not recognized. Doubtless this is true today. | The man who invented the typewriter has ‘affec- | ted-the lives of millions, Judged by the benefits he has conferred this inventor might well be call- ed great. But how many know that the typewrit- er was devised by Christopher Latham’ Sholes, a collector of customs at Milwaukee, in 1867? | Another conclusion'to be drawn from: the old list ‘of-the world’s great men is ‘that recognition of-greatness isan accident. “Men are much alike, however greatly their achievements may. vary. Greatness, one may conclude, is. merely ‘a: label tached toa few who, are little Ginerent from their fellows whom none calls'great , } Practice makes perfect; before 1922 you'll write it 1921 automatically. ; ww NEEDLESS WORRY The census bureau is fretting about the ae statistics, There are, according to the 1920 cén: sus, but 333,436 female cooks in the United States. Something like one cook for. every -300 persons. The bureau. is worrying about the matter. : : . | Indeed, so impyessed was one census pessimis' that he quotes : 4 “We may live.without poetry, music anl art; | We may ‘live without conscience and. live with- _: out heart; 1 We may live without friends; we may live) without hooks; " ; i But civilized man cannot live without cooks.” Of course he cannot live without cooks. Why) ‘should lé? But there is no need for such a lot of fretting. What if the employment offices have a» dearth of cooks? One.may.always get a good vook by. the matrimonial route: The census bur-/ cau is all wrong, Instead of there being 333,436 female ‘cooks inthis country; thie are several! m Nion, usually ofe tn every home. He who steals another man’s purse very often steals more than trash. , He sometimes steals food from babies’ mouths. ‘ *. 1921 WILL BE TEST By H< S.
