It's an easy job to find people

After having reached the top of

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.

as proposed by the Single Tax, land

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

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.

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
