COMMUNISM
School ma’ams back in Washington D. C. are being
requested to swear that they have not taught communism
before being given their checks. Probably the greatest
compliment that communism, as a governmental systen ,
- can receive is to have knowledge of it suppressed.
It is a theory which says that each citizen of the state
should receive goods according to his needs and that each
should give according to his ability. It is distinctly op
posed to the theory of democracy which aims to give to
everyone the profits of his or her own labor. The bee
argument against communism is not to suppress informa
tion about, but to teach it truthfully. It stifles ambitioi
in people who come under it for they cannot receive th«
fruits of their labors.
A lot of paper® in moaning about the $2,500,000 appria
tion for the new capital mention the “loss” of $450,000 o
federal grant money. It would have taken $550,000 of tax
money to get that sum and this give a dollar to get a doll
ar business is expensive in the long run. The federal govern
ment has to tax for it, too, remember.
Regardless of the merits in the Baer case we doubt if
any of the officials connected with it feel any glow of pride
in the affair.
Maybe the powers that be back in Washington believe
that we should cut Canada’s timber first.
Why didn’t the automobile makers realize sooner that
the time to hold a show was before Christmas instead of
afterwards? Folks look longer and more carefully at new
and shiny cars when there is a bit of weight in the pockets.

can turn the hot water faucet any time
and be sure of hot water. You don’t
have to remember to light a heater;
you don't have to fire up and wait.
Your hot water supply is always ready
to tackle your washing or do any other
job as soon as you are.
Right now dealers and Pacific Power
& Light Company are making this pro
position. They have placed a BpecicJ
low price on a 40-gallon automatic
electric water heater. ($10 down and
balance on convenient terms.) The
operating cost is only- eight-tenths of
one cent per kilowatt hour. Use this
heater for all your hot water-require-*
merits for a full 60 d<y v Remember, if
you are not completely satisfied, it will
be removed from your home without
charge and your payments refunded.
The only cost to you will be the elec
tricity you have used.

Elactric ironers eliminate the

you to sit con-.fortably in a chair
and do your ironing in half the
time required by a hand iron. You
can now buy a table-type ironer
for as little as $44.95—the lowest
price at which a quality ironer has
