CHURCHES ADVERTISE A "minister using his electric sign in the front churchyard displayed this stimulating bit of originality: "Is Life Worth The Living? That Depends Upon The Liver." Wheu same owner of a f unnybone hung a homepainted card advertising pills! on the bottom of the sign, the min ister coukln't st a the joke. But his sign had wen attention, a thing which churches all over the land are doing with electric advertising nowadays. Not so long ago churches shunned outdoor advertising as un ethical. But, following in tha staid footsteps of the Banks, they are isow using electric light in various forns. Letter signs, illuminated crosses and various ther forms of outdoor lighting are helping to fill the pews. THE IDLER LOSES OUT Glenn Frank, president of Uni versity of Wisconsin, says in a re cent syndicate article: "Society is unconsciously working toward a system of compulsory labor by mak ing the idler and parasite a less and less popular figure." Here Dr. Frank points out one of the funda mental principles of American se curity and prosperity. Up to coming into being America wealth was always regarded not as the means toward progress or im provement, . but simply the agency . by which the possessor could live luxuriously and prodigally without worry or work, at the expense of Others. This attitude caused the fall of Rome and the great powers of that period; in France it resulted I FILL and WINTER 1 That .re essential In making th. home more com fort.tl. .nd healthul for the whole family.

Hera, in America, there should be no danger of Bolshevism for the simply reason that the rich man works just as hard as, and often harder than the man who has no capital but his hands. lie uses hi? wealth to promote great industries and centralize business, with the sub sequent improvement and well-being of all. In short, his money is to him the means of a certain end: Ultimate perfection of his product or service. 1 erfection is not yet here, but we ?uu te sura that in Ameri.-n vo are noarer it than ever before, anywhere in tha world. ArJ on ol the great est factors is what Dr. Frank speaks of, tha discouragement of slothful ness and the tendency of wealth to use itself for the good of anil. SUGAR BEET "iDUSTRY CROWS As the season of the snugar beet harvest comes on, it must be seen that here is an industry that should be protected and encouraaged so that it will become a national indus try of the first rank. In snite of tremenduooul odds, is has progressed in the past few years to where the town of Wiley, Colorado, is holding an annual "Sugar Beet Day and it is estimated that the crop of Ne braska .alone this year will be 893, 000 tons. It would he an encouraging sign to see America increaseing its inter nal manufacture cf one of tha most inportant of commodities. Today we depend far too mch on foreign growing and importation The folly of such a course was demonstrated at our expense during wartime when the shortage caame and the goovern-rr.t-nt was forced to limit consump tion to a aminlmum. In the interest of progress and safety we should encourage sugar beet growers ani manufacturers in vy way possible until the production makes another such cataetrope impossible. DOES ADVERTISING PAY Public utility companies will spend $28,000,000 for advertising in 1927. Here in this news item is food for thought It makes one wonder if there are still reactionaries who in sist that advertising is useless and a waste of investors' money. NECESSITIE Circulators Parlor Furnaces For those who want th. ntmo.t in satisfactory heating we have many ! and styes of beauti fully enameled or plain blaack escalators, cap able of heating th. whole house with a minimum of fuel. These stoves ar. built for coal or wood and are priced m low a DOCHERTY- -POWER - A TMUVt W tASMUHOrON it Statistics on the Btrldes that advertising expenditure and ipace have taken, would be of tremendous interest to the student ol modern Industry and business. In the past twenty years it has unquestionably doubled itself many times. , Thru the varius mediums, and most impor tant of all, the newspapers advertis ing and publicity have gown to pro portion where they are an ong th garetcst forces known for fathering progress and forwardness. ,i( Far from being a waste of inves tors' money it is a safeguard in that if the company or product ad vertised is honest and worth-while, that company's business or sales will increase in direct proportion to the amount of advertising! Progressive business is learning that the only thing better for bsui ness than extensive advertising, is more extensive advertising, plus , a good product or service. .'
