F you aro a business man, if you are a pro­
fessional man, if you are employed at a
daily wage, make up your mind to deposit
weekly a certain sum of money in the bank.
You’ll be surprised how the sum will grow.
Cash in bank gingers up the man who has
it there. Ho has more confidence in him­
self. The business man is ready for a dull season. He
is ready for an opportunity.
So is the professional man. The man who is work­
ing for a daily wage and who hasn’t uny money in bank
frequently is fearful of a loss of his situation. He does
no‘ work"as well or with the confidence in himself as
does the man with something laid aside for a rainy day.

Greater Efficiency and Economy in
Administration of County Government
By Rufus C. Holman.
Frequently in searching for improve­
m ent over the existing order of things
governm ental, the reform er advocate«
some fundam ental change in the form
of governm ent; yet I coincide with the
thought of A lexander Pope, expressed
in the lines —
“ F or form s of governm ent let fools
contest;
W hate’er is best adm inistered is b e st.”
I do not approve of any revolutionary
change in the form of governm ent pro­
vided in the sta te constitution for ad­
ministration of county affairs, but 1 do
believe that the laws regulating the
dutiea of county commissioners should
be amended from time to tim e to keep
pace with the constant growth in our
population and with the development
of our civilization.
Conditions which existed in the
pioneer period of this state no longer
prevail. The isolation typical of life in
the W est a generation ago produced
conditions which the modern highway,

the invention of the automobile, the
rural free delivery of mail, the parcel
post, the electric light and the common
use of the telephone have changed.
The d-m and for an extrem e local
governm ent is no longer a compelling
one, and the constant tendency should
be tow ard centralized, simple and di­
rect governm ent in every county of the
sla te . Every endeavor should be made
to elim inate duplication of effort ami
coat.
The county, as a civil unit of the
state, should be considered as one un­
divided unit of the state, except for the
incorporated cities within its bounds.
T herefore. I believe th a t any suhdivi-
siona of county authoriry th a t there
may be, should he done away with, and
all direction and authority of a fiscal
n ature concentrated in the boards of
county commissioners
