It is never too late to turn over a new leaf. But dont let it be a dead one. Can you recall the meanest thing you ever did? But don't tell us. It might not look well in print It's an easy job to find people with whom you can argue, but it's a dickens of a job to locate one you can convince. After having reached the top of the ladder, some neooLe become so disappointed with life they start right down again. A few paltry dollars can cause un told misery, but not all of the wealth of the world can alone purchase one hour ox unalloyed happiness. Some people live to learn, others learn as they live, but a few neither live nor learn. Their ambition soars no higher than a mere existence. THE MENACE OP LAND MONOP OLY Sinele Tax would eventuate in a ori- jgantic government land monoply and hence is highly socialistic, It provides state and federal land lordism, and like state ownership of railroads and industries, is purely so cialistic. Beyond parks and reserves for the benefit 01 an tne people, tne tendency in our country is to stabliih small holdings. The accumulation of large tracts is entirely due to the opportunity for land monopoly created oy govern: ment ownership. Land grants, Spanish grants, great cattle ranzes, and land scrip trading are all due to government operations. iiy putting all tne taxes on to land, as proposed by the Single Tax, land monoply by the government would be inevitable. The Manufacturer. THE SUBSTANTIAL CITIZEN The American home is the corner stone of the nation. It promotes the stability of the family, stimulates the love of our country, and it i the best safeguard of law and order in society. Few people really like to live in ho tels and apartment houses or eat in a restaurant in preference to the en joyments of a home, but many do so because of barriers of one kind and another which stand in the way of the home. Bulling costs are more than offset by high rents being charged. Home building today is a business the same as banking and any energetic man can finance a home through a long time loan if he wishes. The ownership of a bit of real es tate is a fine thine from every point of view. It gives the holder a standing and a seif respect he would not other wise have, it promotes business con fidence in him and makes him one of the substantial upstanding pillars of the community. Begin it today. Own your own home. Get in line to be the solid cit izen of tomorrow. The Manufactur- PLEA FOR WOODEN BRIDGES The timbered states of the west have every reason to encourage build ing more wooden bridges. It is a well known fact that in many parts of the country wooden bridges have stood ou to 1UU years. There are places where steel and concrete are proper materials, but nine-tenths of all bridges needed m any country can be built of wood. Uowrias iir and yellow nine wtli carry more than steel. One western county has a bridge crew, buys all its lumber in carload, and builds only wooden bridges. The bridees are roofed and nainted and outlast steel bridges, are built of home products and with home labor. i tie time has come when western states that issue bonds for bridge construction should insist on using a western material and keep money at home, (The Manufacturer. DONT KICK YOUR TOWN There is no better evidence of a commendable community spirit than that of loyalty to a town in which a person lives. If a town is worth living in it Is worth defending and supporting in its efforts to advance with the rest of the world. Yet in most every community you will find people who can see nothing good in their surroundings. They cannot recognize the fact that though it may be humble, it yet is home that it has clothed them, and fed them, and cared for them in sick ness and in health, and has furnished them friends who have been steadfast and true. They magnify its imperfections and spread clouds wherever they go. They often make life miserable for others and invaribly make It a re proach to themselves. but there u a brarhter side to this etory.

TEACH CHILD TO LIKE ALL KINDS QF WHOLESOME FOOD A meal in which all the important kinds of food are represented tends to keep the child in good condition and to give him good habits of eating, food BDecialists of the United States Department of Agriculture say. The liking lor a large range oi iooos is desirable from the standpoint of diet and also of manners, for it helps to prevent, a person from becoming a disagreeable table companion, one who is "fussy" about his food. Meals that are olanned carefully help also to give the child some little idea of what those who know most about foods have in mind when they speak of a "balanced" or, better, a "rightly chosen" ration. With children it is far more important to suggest the value of such a ration by the charac ter of the meals given to them than to try to tell them what it is or to what extent it has been worked out. Predicts Another Big War Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart, profes sor of history in Harvard University, and Judge Lents, ex-congressman from Ohio of national fame, who are directors of the great vocational in stitution for some 800 boys and girls at Mooseheart, 111., maintained by the Loyal Order of Moose, were in Port land last week. Dr. Hart believes there will be an other European war within the next five years. Germany and Russia, pos sibly Japan, will go in together. "That will be a stronger combine by far than Germany and Austria. I do not think there is a possibility for the United States to stand off. I think we will get into it in the same man ner as we were forced to enter the world war," he is reported to have said. Professor Hart holds the chair ox government at Harvard, has a string of collegiate degrees so long he haa forgotten several of them. The first came to him in 1880, when he was graduated from Harvard University with the degree of bachelor of arts, and they go on up the line to the de gree of doctor of literature, granted at the University of Geneva, Switzer land, in 1909. He is the author of a great many books on history and gov ernment and should be considered something of a well-informed author ity. j ' AS IT SEEMS TOME aa mmmmmmmmmmm- Ve cr z!l AT ALSO we still tave a sndl quantity oi Paint at COST!

Trouble with some people is, they work hard to make money and even harder to spend it.
