The son of a college professor at Boston, who is roaster of five lan guages has been arrested for Bolshev ism and for the use of language which consigned the American flag to the hot place. He graduated from Harvard at 15, nd now he Is twenty-one years old and a full-fledged Bolshevik. Chances are he would not know a pick-axe or a crow-bar if he met them on the street, and could not distinguish the difference between a trowel and a dornick. He is a horrible example of the kind of "workmen" who do all their laboring with their mounths and who absorb fantastic notions about labor. People have bsen known to recov er from this by going out into the open and doing some real work. war levels, If they ever do." . Cold facts gathered by the gov ernment Bay 'go ahead' with home building. Up to first of year, farm produce prices had advanced 116 pier cent over, pre-war prices. Corresponding figure for lumber was 73 per cent. Commodities in general advanced 113 per dan. Building materials (not including, steel) advanced 84 per cent. , These are the facts. Judging by history and by sourtd economic theo ry, it will be a generation hjefore the prices get back to pre-war levels, If they ever do. Probably there will be a gradual decllnjr, but meantime there will be an evening up. ' Prices which have gone up fastest and highest will come down first and most). Prices which have made thle smallest com porative advance are apt to stay put until other prices come down to their level. This last applies to the build- ling materials. It's poor business to wait. HOME AND NATIONAL , HIGHWAYS "Improved highways of a perma nent type providing motor express and passenger transportation facili ties spell opportunity today to tho City which intends to lay the foun dation for a healthy, permanent fu ture growth. 1 "For, if we but admit that hope lies In a more evn distribution bt the population over the acres lying' within a city's sphere of Influence then we are committed to this task of arranging facilities to permit that adjustment to take place in a natur al way. "Improved highways tha moAo possible rapid motor transportation 365 days out of overy year will Just as certainly permit and stimulate our people to move out to the sur rounding country acres as a fast and free flowing stream will deliv er at Its mouth the piece of bark flung In at Its source." Thesb remarks, made by Mr. W. O. Rutherford, Vloe President of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber Company at a recent conference, are vital now. first because In many cities housing conditions are not conducive to a home-making and home-loving folk. and second, now is the time to set about on those works of public Im provement that will pormlt men and women to become homo owners and give them added cause to be proud of their city and landi "Quite recently our Trade Exten sion Division," adds Mr. Ruther ford, "completed a survey of a large county In one of our great eastern states that has not a single mile of railroad, trjack iwlthJn Its Iwrders. Our object In making such surveys and conducting such research Is to help provide a market that will ex tend the field of usefulness of pro ducts madfO by the workers of America that are lndlsplensible to the life and happiness of mankind and to the strengthening of our national life. This particular coun ty was Isolated, tho of great produc tive power, and was not harnessed up to tula homes of the great Indus trial cities of the East nor assuming Its part of the burden In our march of progress." "Such a county, typical of many sections of our country, offlers un limited possibilities to greater use fulness. Adequate provision for im proved roads and highways transpor tation will provide a system of veins facilitating and stimulating comrau- blles, our legislators are at a loss for scientific data on which this great development of motor trans portation can be guided to the ulti mate good of all." "For this reason It Uccoraes In creasingly Important that the col leges of this and neighboring states should provide Instruction on high wava location, construction, and maintenance, and on every aspect of highways transportation. The ef forts madj during the war by the Highways Transport Committee of the Council of National Defense should not stop but should be in corporated as a definito part of tho new Federal Highway Commission. And In addition to classes for In structWa In our colleges, there should le research groups at work From such study made both in the field! and) In the- laboratory w(ill como not only text books, teachers and workers, but gradually will be evolved this progressive science of transportation and communication' Cooked Lunch Goods We have added to our Market a full line of cooked camp lunch goods and are ready to serve tourists and campers as well as home folks who wish to have cold meats on hands for emergency.

Banking rates of interest have been lowered during the war period, and the volume of community work has doubled and trebled, for nearly every bank because of war drives. Of course, no one thinks of a bank as being conducted except on strict business lines, and no one stops to give a bank any particular credit for anything it does for the individual or the community. But assured of healthy banking conditions, and an abundance of money and credit to meet all natural and legitimate requirements, In dustrial enterprises ihjruout our country can proceed with confidence and security.

The new' circulation thus provided for will In corporate such areas as vital parts of this great living organism, wo call home and country." "To meet such situations as these, and because of the evident solution to be found In the Improvement otj our highways and the stimulation of highways transportation, representa tives of the cities of this country as sembled at St. Louis recently and put themselves squarely behind the development of highways as being of particular Iqnd pressing impor tance. And at this meeting of tho United States Chamber of Commerce a resolution was adopted urging up on Congress that the time had now arrived to create a Federal High way Commission to lay out and build a truly national system of highways and stimulate their effi cient utilization. And this action signifying the importance to our national life that may bte attached to the new Federal Highway Cora- mission merely re-eohoes the voices of hundreds of thousands of citi zens who have already expressed themselves. As a result of this gen eral Insistence, Senator Charles E. Totnflcm of 'Michigan Introduced his bill at the last session providing for a Fedjwal, Highway Commission and a National System of Highways. The feeling was unanimous that tho time had come for the adoption of a policy specifically providing for the building outright by the nation al government of highways of inter state importane including those es sential to the national defense, and development of the public domain." Mr. W. D. Albright, Manager of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber Company at Seattle, has again urged in this connection the great opportunity be fore our colleges and universities for help at this time. He makes the statemont: "Thmout the land In counties, as well as in State Assem- Four years ago very few people had ever heard of Tanlac today It unquestionably has the largest 6 of any medicine In the world, and Is as well known In Canada as In this country. In thle brief period of only four yeata time this now famous remedy has leaded from obscurity to the very pinnacle of success. Its fame in fact, has long since spread beyond the limits of the continent, and numerous, inquiries regarding it are now htelng -received from many foreign countries. Very few people, however, fully realize what a really wonderful rec ord Tanlac has made, Indeed, if it were not for the unquestionable facts and figures given out by the largest and best known drug firm 3 of the country the story of its suc cess would be hard to belief Up to January first the total sales of Tanlac amounted to approximate ly twelve million bottles. The de mand, however, is Increasing, for during the first ten weeks of this year over one million bottles were sold and distributed In the United Stat)i and Canada, the exact figure being 1,306,186 In three months. At this rate, therefore, the sales for the present year; will amount to more than five million bottfoe. This will mean that 17,000 bottles of Tanlac Will be sold during every day of the year, or 2100 bottles for every hour of the average working dry". Th)?se figures are too stupendous for the average mind to grasp, but one may visualize what twelve mil lion bottles mean by imagining them laid out in a single file end to end. Thus laid they would make a track of Tanlac from New York thru Chi cago, and on to Denver, Colorado; or they would form a double track of Tanlac from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Piled end oil end they would tower 135 times as high as Pikes Peak, or rise 13,333 times higher that the Woolworth Building la New York, the tallest building in thle world. The demand for Tanlac has be come so great thr.t Its sales Instead of being measured by the gross as other preparations have bden is now reckoned by tho car load, and even by the train load. In proof of this it is a noteworthy fact that leading drug Jobbers everywhere now buy Tanlac almost exclusively In car load lots. To supply the Pacific coast trade alone requires from forty to fifty car loads per yean. Jobbers of tho Middle VAect are selling from seventy to eighty cars per yoar. ' The well known drug firm of Hes- slg-EUIs Drug Company of Memphis, Tcnn., has sold over forty car loads since the Introduction of Tanlac in that statfa four years ago. i Within the past nlriety days, ten car loads of Tanlac have gone to sup ply the demand of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Alberta and Mani toba, Canada. The Owl Drug Company of San Francisco, the largest retail drug gists on tl9 Pacific Coast, Btate that thfety have sold more than 180,000 bottles at retail, which surpasses the remarkablo record of the Jacobs Pharmacy Company of Atlanta, who ltttvla sold approximately 80,000 bot tles at retail. . Tanlac Is composed of the most beneficial roots and herbs known to science. The formula compiles with all national and state pure food and health laws of both the United States and Canada; and absoluto merit and merit alone is responsible for Its phenomenal and unprecedented suc cess. .
