FORUM SONS OK (JOD: ItelinM, what nimnier of love the Futlicr hnth lies-owed upon us that we should I called the wins of (iml John !!:!. Eating One's Cake A great ninny people pot Into the habit during the period of l)ip; profits, and liieh wnije.s, of spending money freely. They bought a great many things they hnd done without nil their lives. They indulged in- a great many luxuries they could do without, taking no thought of the morrow. Some of them, who no longer are required to. pay income taxes, have come to the conclusion , that "one cannot eat his cake und have' it too. : . Legally, these people had a perfect right to spend their money as they pleased'. They came by their money honestly, and if they wanted to gratify u wish or indulge in things they had never been able to afford,,il was nobody's business if they did so. In deed, some of them were justified in' obtaining some good things of . life, and, even if . they have spent their money for them, they are undoubtedly better off than they were before. The "dough may he 'locking, but if expended judiciously, those who spent it have gained wider experiences and obtained broader views of life. Only the people who "blew their money in" assumed a respons ibility which they morally hud no right to assume. And such people are generally the ones who today are pulling up the "holler" because they no longer have "big profits and high wages." They have created for themselves and those dependent on them habits and tastes which they can 110 longer pursue and gratify, and, in their discontent, are blaming everyliody but themselves for hav ing to readjust themselves to'normal conditions of life. The im morality of extravagance lies in expenditure that has not been warranted under normal conditions and is not warranted under abnormal conditions, for the reason that abnormal will sooner 01 . later react to normal. , It is realization that cake has been eaten that is causing to ,11m pxpinmition '. 'considerable extent the discontent now prevailing. Men win made big profits and spent them are dissatisfied with smaller pro fits which do not pemiit the reckless expenditure they indulged in. Men who earned high wages and spent them injudiciously are resentful that wages now earned do not permit them to live as , '' formerly. Such results are natural, yet this does not aid them in , reaccommoduting themselves to conditions which they never liked abd thought they had gotten away from. Natural law is less un derstood by the average man or woman than statute law is, and Hindi the day of reckoning -conies. ' War compelled the peoples of devastated European countries to return to conditions of living from which they had been grad ually rising. Money there was spent for shot, shell and trench. Their cake was eaten, but in the manner of the eating there is inspiration for the recreation of wealth. In contrast, riotous liv ing on the profits of Europe's war led the American people to eat their cake, and left them with less incentive to make the best of the situation, though they can, if they will pull themselves out of their present slough of despond and live more comfortably than Europeans can for generations to come. 1 -i 1 1 1 All Honor To Union Killtor KvpnlnK OliHOrver: Will yoit permit mo to any u few -worrtii In ln terent of Hie runup rplntlvp In ItryonV d.vr.il In the 1'rpHltytPrlnn (TPliPriil iiHxi-mMv which wim dlHPiiHHPd nl the i-hiunhPr of f-nimm-rrp lnt Tni-Hiiiiy unit rr-portPil In your p.-ipi-r nl lli'il ly.

It was noticeabe from the Union hotel to the high school ; it was apparent in every store and shop in the town. - And the banquet sewed by the ladies of Union in the high school auditorium under direction of the local Chamber of Com meicc was superb. The ladies of Union have for years had a rep utation for feeding people in excellent style with a service ren dered by the daughters of the town that carries that modesty so sweet to observe. The mothers of Union last evening made a record for them selves nnd all Union county with the stockmen. No finer ban quet was ever seived east of tho Cascade mountains.
