If a bunch of young boys can suc
cessfully finance a dance or a basket
ball game, why can't a bunch of stew
ards successfully finance a church?
The movies teach very little about
the disarmament conference, but they
would start a crusade if someone pro
posed a dislegament conference.
Speaking of partial disarmament
what does it matter whether one goose
runs a boy or whether he is chased by
a whole flock?
If Senator Watson’s mind is work
ing right then the rest of the United
States Senators must be allowing their
gray matter to take a rest spell.
The lady who rides in the fine litno
sine and lives in the best house on the
block is the one who writes the col
umn in the daily papers on how to
prosper and raise a family of ten on
ten dollars per week.
It will soon be time to pay for your
auto tags which are to pay for the
good roads which we haven’t yet suc
ceeded in getting.
An automobile driver, who is used to
reverses should be able these hard times
to shift for himself.
A western paper write-up of gossip:
“Gossip is a humming bird with eagle
wings aud a voice like a fog horn. It
can be heard from Dan to Beersheba
and has caused more trouble than all
the, fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, coyotes,
rattlesnakes, cyclones, earthquakes,
blizzards, gout and indigestion that
this United States has known or will
know when the universe shuts up shop
and begins the final inventory. In oth
er words it has got both war and hell
backed up in a corner yelling for ice
water."
The fellow who thinks that normal
cy means 50 cent cotton aud SIOOO
Fords hasn’t as much brains as the or
dinary dirt dauber.
We have had our ice and touch of
cold weather, but some of us still
doubt whether the boll weevils have all
been frozen to death or not.
This is the best year of all years
to live and do things. There is plenty
of room in it for the worker and opti
mist, but absolutely no space anywhere
near it for the grouch. Pack up your
old kit bag and work aud smile thru
to success.

“Every Mason in the quarry,
Every builder on the shore,
Every woodsman in the forest,
Every boatman at the oar,
Sawing wood or drawing water,
Splitting stone or clearing sod;
All the dusty ranks of labor —
In the regiment of God.
March together toward His temple,
Do the work his hands prepare,
Faithful toil is holy service,
Honest work is praise and prayer.”
The church will get on without you
Can you get along without the church.'
W. H. FAUST. Pastor.
