BETTER TIMES COMING "The business outlook is good," "Europe is calling for wheat ami woolen goods" and other headlines, heralded by the press, indicate that there is an opening up of tratlic that will bring about better business in terests in this country, and as a matter of course, better times. The starting up of the steel works at Chicago and of other businss institutions indicate that there is a better prospect ahead. When the outlook ahead is doubtful business institutions close and labor is thrown out of employment, money ceases to circulate at its usual pace and we have a money stringency. When business begins to revive it must li'ive time to get currency to circulating and the places furthest removed from the busi ness centers will be the last to feel the effect. We hear the remark made that money matters are close, and we can expect that they will be until such time as labor is called into action, as labof is the medium through which money is started circulating. However the indications are brightening and the next few months should bring better conditions. Teaching Thrift In School . Everyone is familiar with the reputation for thrift which the French peasant bears. The same attribute, though perhaps in lesser degree, applies to the German, the Swiss and the Scandinavian peasant. Whether or not the condition of this particular class in those countries is better than that of the average worker in this coun try is not so important and does not prove so very much. The advantages and opportunities here are so much better and greater, that there is hardly necessity or even the desire to practice the same degree of thrift. But if we were to make the practice of that virtue pro portional to the opportunities and advantages we enjoy, from that very fact itself we would be pretty nearly panic proof and and some of our most perplexing industrial and social problems would well-nigh vanish. We are at times reminded of this in the amazing facility for getting on 6hown by the foreigner who lands in this country with very little money, and begins his in dustrial life here with his foot scarcely on the bottom rung of the ladder. We would do well to teach thrift as part of our public school education. That is what they do in France and in Germany, strengthening the National hab it by National instruction.. In at least one of the American states M ass a ch usetts such teaching has been incorporated in the school system; and we are told by the Massachusetts Savings I Insurance I,enguo that the re- ( suits after a little more than' three years' trial are encourag ing. The matter is not taken up in the Massachusetts schools mere ly as a sociological theory to be tried out; but as an intensely practical branch of public in struction, calculated to bear fruit from the very first. There is no reason why such teaching should not be practical, no rea son why it should not be made effective. Considering its one aim. to create a National habit which will give to the average man a greater measure of self reliance and independence, it should be r movement entitled in every way to commendable regard. Telegram. , .u, Sign Advert ising The Southern Pacific Compa ny, through its agents, is calling the attention of manufacturers and others whose places of busi ness are located along the com pany's right of way to the ad vertising advantages that would accrue from the judicious use of signs on their establishments. Factories and industries sitiu ated near the Southern Pacific tracks enjoy a preferable location from an advertising viewpoint. The railroad annually brings out West thousands of people, most of whom get their first im pressions of the Coast from what they see from the trains. They are always interested to know what factories in the various communities produce and as things are now can only learn by haphazard inquiry that is not always answered correctly 01 sufficiently. Especially will travelers be interested in 1915, when the greater number of passengers will be sight seers. There are many manufactur ers who might move West were they sure they could find raw products in the Western market, just as there are others who would be interested to know of. some Western establishment that could handle their own raw products. Business signs identifying the various enterprises on the railroad right-of-way would be unquestionably an excellent ad vertising medium. Strike Zone Will Be Dry Again The six months proclamation of the Governor of Colorado for bidding the sale of liquor in the northern strike zone of the state will expire on December 9. but there is every prospect of its be ing renewed. The prohibition of the sale of liquor has been productiveof increased proficien cy, better order, and the develop ment of a more peaceable dispo sition. The saloons and brewer ies are bitterly fighting the re newal of this order. NEWS FROM COUNTY SEAT Court House Notes.
