TH U RSD A Y . AUGUST 24. 1010 The greatest error a city or county governm ent can m ake is to let com­ m ercialized vice and crookedness go u n ­ muzzled. An unrestrained city soon gets beyond control, like a way ward child. It is m uch easier to hold crim e and its kin under check a t the s ta rt th an to a t­ tem p t to bridle it after it has gained a foothold. The city th a t is careless and neglectful of its own in te re st will reap its n atu ral harvest.

THE SLAB CREEK SAGE SAYS How a girl does dislike riding in a buggy w ith a one-arined m an. We hav en ’t m uch use for misers, but it is far b e tte r to freeze on to your money th a n to burn it. T here are two distinct classes of col­ lege g ra d u a te s: Those who accept po­ sitions and those who h u n t jobs. W hen a m an does a fool thing th a t gets him into trouble he is sure to say th a t “ accidents will happen.” C om paratively little work can con­ vince a m an th a t he needs a rest. Before Some preachers condemn a sin th a t investigate its financial standing. The optim ist cheers, but the pessi­ m ist saves his breath for ths purpose of letting out a calam ity howl later. 10 Per Gent 10 Per Gent Discount Discount It costs as much to paint with inferior paint as it does with quality stuff and you save but little on the original cost and lose heavily on the lasting quality.
