One began picking up ■tones and throwing them Into the space below. The larger they were, the better apls^h they made. A good-slxed rock lay near the edge of the chasm. What a splash It would make!

At last they dislodged IL and it rolled over the brink: It fell down Into the river below, and the mighty splash It made caused the water to dash madly away from It for a moment. Then It disap peared. lost forever below the ripples In that Inaccessible canyon. As it had rolled and slid toward the edge of the bluff, the rock looked yellow. As it hurtled down ward the sun caught It. and It gleamed. The four men watched it until It vanished. Then they turned toward each other. Every face wore a number of tangled emotion* They had learned, too late, that the "rock" was gold! F National Editorial Association. Oregon Newspaper Press Association INDIVIDUAL EFFORT BUILDS COMMUNITIES Individual initiative has counted most in the progress the country has made in the years passed and it is still the major factor to be reckoned with in the progress we make in the fu ture, notwithstanding the helps and aids offered by outside agencies. Progressive, prosperous communities don’t just hap pen. They are the result of planning by the citizenship involved. And loyalty to home town enterprises Is a responsibility that rests with the people of the particular community involved. Lack of loyalty can not usually be laid at the door of any one class. Pride of home ownership, the desire to see property val ues stabilized makes for hometown loyalty. There has been a great deal said on the subject of patroniz ing home institutions, but unless the subject has been approach ed in the right spirit; that of giving the other fellow’s view point the same right as our own. little can hope to be accom plished. We can’t expect the other fellow to do something we refuse to do ourselves and we can’t work out any plan of action unless both the business enterprises and the consumers agree on a plan. Usually the lack of the proper spirit is the result of passing the buck to the other fellow. It isn’t human, you know, to want to take personal blame for our own failures. We like to lay the blame at the other fellow’s door. 1 STRANGE By Edwin Finch NINE BILLIONS TO SPEND Budgetary demands of the present congress will exceed nine billion dollars, according to one source, although all de mands are not in at the present writing. Relief is still taking the major share of the national appropriation with an estimateri three billion. Agricultural subsidity somes next in line with a demand for $1,500.000.000: national defense next with an esti mated $1.400.000.000. Approximately a billion will be spent in* paying interest on public debt and $600,000,000 will go for aid of veterans of past wars. The other items in the budget will go for emergency appropriations one way or another. This is a huge sum to be spent on a huge peace-time pro I IF A MAN gram. including of course the preparations we are making in TRANSPLANTS" the event of war. which at the present time is costing about three times the amount of the normal preparation. Relief in one A CEDAR THE N°RTH WALKMAN form or another is asking the biggest slice but still the amount BELIEVES- HE WILL DIE AS S°°H is not enough to satisfy those who want more relief money. The AS THE LPWER BRANCHES GROW agricultural program appropriation is also a big item and it is AS L°NG AS HIS COFFIN what most of the farmers want, the emergency appropriations are not nearly sufficient to satisfy the demands of the congress SIGNS INDICATING COMPANY man’s constituents, but will probably have to do. When it is all summed up the national budget is not grow CAT WASHING ri’S FACE ing any faster than most municipal, state or county budgets. BEFORE The growth of these budgets is the result of more and better SNEEZE BREAKFAST civic and public improvements. One way to cut the budgets is FINDING SPIDER WEB of course to stop demanding so much, but what community, county or state is going to be the first to do this? INTERNATIONAL MORALS Twenty-one years ago we fought a war to end wars and save the world for democracy, but apparently, like most wars, this war did not accomplish its purpose. The world has made great strides on many fronts, but not so with international morals if the present rate the armament race is being conducted is any criterion. Nations are spending big sums for armaments and equally big sums in training their citizens to be soldiers, not because they want to but because they believe they have to for the sake of self preservation. The people of most nations hate war as bad as we do, but unfortunately are not in position to prevent aggression on their part of their leaders. Thus it can be said that the present inter national distrust can be laid at the door of three or four men, who seek self aggrandizement. So far as that goes the basis of past conflicts are due largely to the same condition, where one or more individuals were ambitious for increasing power.
