In less than one hun- th dred aud fifty years after the founding of the government, we de have outstripped in spiritual and material progress, iY other country on the globe. The outstanding fe: to government, Which every American should appr * poi. mity which it offers to exercise individual initiative, oe terprise and ability to develop ideas along any line of honest 12 endeayor. his is not a land of privilege for « few and obliy- : on for the many. Any man who has energy and perseverance ‘ ise from the lowest tu the highest position in industry, Y . politics, or whatever his choice nm be. ch man a ind woman has the opportunity for a fair start regardless of a the handicaps or disadvantages of ancestors. , It is no wonder that a nation where every family can set tt it yn goal to strive for without hindrance from either polit- ical, religious or social sources, should have developed in a | ma unparalleled in the world’s history. Observe-the xe- § is of sound and enlightened government as it is reflected 4 ia the average American home during New Year’s day. It is > rmed by a modern heating plant. The holiday dinner is prepa 1 an efficient stove with yas or electric heat. The i water all household purposes comes through modern : plumbing from strictly sanitary scurces, Music is at band, 4 piano, phonograph, orradio which brings to the family circle, | opera, news, lectures or entertainment from points wlfich may t be thousands of miles distant. The home may be flooded with v light by the pressing of a button, At your elbow is the in- € dispensable telephone, over which to hold direct communica- 4 tion with friends or relatives in the next city block or thous- 4 ands of miles across the continent. At your command is the z automobile. It may be a two hundred dollar second hand fliv- 1 ver or a ten thousand dollar palace on wheels. It is at your ; service for a fifty or one hundred mile ride over paved streets and perfect highways, to play or entertainment as the mood strikes you. Chance, which in the past has wrecked the happiness and future prospects of so many families and businesses and in- dustries, has been largely eliminated in America through mod- ! ern insurance methods, which have seen their greatest develop- ment here in order to take care of the varied needs and require-- ments of the American family and American business life, This is not an over-colored picture, Rather is it lacking | in color and detail. It is meant only to place before you, the high lights with which you are familiar. It is typical of every city, town and village in the country. It is so commonplace, that most people are prone to forget the background of the sound government which has gnade it all possible. But at this season of the year, when it is the endeayor. of all the world to appreciate the bles t has received, it is well for us in this nation to be doubly grateful for the wonderful things we haye and the opportunities we enjoy. f Byery American citizen, born or naturalized, free to enter into the many blessings that have flowed to the individual from this great and wise government, which is the Boats themselves, should on this first day of the new year, highly resolve that he will render increased loyalty to the structure erected by the fathers. That by lis individual devotion it will be made stronger with the } ge of the years, and that the opportunity and freedom gv ntesc to the i dual under the constiution is not curtailed or destroyed, but enlarged and strengthened. Coolidge on Farm Prices few suggestions in President Coolidge’s imeés- n farmer: Adequate storage, necessary credit e marketing will place agriculture on a sound bus o matter how disgui the moment the government s in buying and selling farm products, it fixes prices. Even the United States is not strong enough to fix prices which would constantly guarantee success. Parm- ; ers are cpposed to submitting themselves to control of a great pricefixing and marketing bureaucracy. Yor a more orderly marketing caluculated to secure better range of prices the co- Here are sage to Americ and orderly co-oy ess movement A New Year’s Wish Others may wish you peace and ease, With a gentler break for the year ahead; Silken salls ypon stormless seas Or rose-rimmed paths where your feet may tread.

Rayon Production Production of-rayon, oné of the newest of American {ndustries, {s estimated by Secretary Hoover as In excess of fifty million pounds in 1925. It has not replaced silk or cotton, but, apparently, has stimu- lated their manufacture ané sale. Plants for production of rayon are in operation {n Maryland, Tennessee and West Virginia. Knit goods man- ufacturers take 26 per cent of the rayon and hosfery manufacturers take 25 per cent. France is the old home of the natural silk Industry, but there is a well-established rayon industry there as well as in England and Germany, The Oil Merger In the proposed merger of the Standard Oil Company of California and the Pacific Oit Company, the latter retains its Associated Ot!

An old Ghost walks today where none can hear; An old Ghost on its solitary way Down Time’s silm corridor, went Why They Join | American women, descendants of soldiers of '76, are applying in such numbers for :.iembership in the So- clety of Daughters of the American Revolution that the regis ration ma- ahinery of the organization {s being worked overtime. There is a reason for the sharpened and active desire of American women to enrol) them- selves in the patriotic society. Recently some American women who are wedded to the idols of radi- calism, charged that the Daughters of the American Revolution kept their faces to the past and saw little of the present and of the future and cared nothing about elther of them. It might be thought that this kind of an attack from stpposedly intel: Ugent women would make their sls- ters hesitate to join the Daughters’ organization. On the contrary, it quickened thelr desire for member- ship. They came to admire the or- ganization because of the enemies it had made. It {s true that the Daughters of the American Revolution derive their inspiration from the past. It is un- true that they pay no attention to the needs of the future. They were teaching good citizenship to allens before the word Americanization was coined. For years the Daughters have been directing their entire ef- forts to constructive Americanism. There has been no beneficent patrio- tic work to be denied their support. ‘The attacks have strengthened the Daughters’ organization. The mem- bers know why they have the oppo- sition of the “radical sisterhood." The reason 1s this: No woman can join the DaugMters of the American Che Caspet Daily Cribune Shade By THEODOSIA GARRISON The kindilest thing God ever made, His hand of very healing Inid Upon a fevered world, Is shade, His glorious company of trees Throw out thelr mantles, and on these s The’ dust-stained wanderer finds + ease.
