Michlgar., where I balled from you know In that country It freezesi during the winter at a time when the nun it farthest from the earth. Skating on Ico Is us popular a passtime there as throwing snow-balls anr thawing op; frozen water pipes is here. A skater of reputation was putting on some real fancy stunts; cutt nf figures to prove his ability, when there's an infrequent ' occurence, a screw looHens somewhere and the akuter perforins sorno wild antics Involving the principles of centrifugal motion in a vain attempt to overcome the law of gravitation resulting In a tremendous "hit" with the Ice. Our Mr. Sykes perfoimes splendidly but there will be an Infrequent occurrence' llroctly; he Is skating on pretty thin economic ice and no doubt will full throng!: eventually and sink Into country and now htene buldlgs pru ui !ki lo become well filled with retail grocery stores, shops etc. uiul if the Syki's theory could possibly prevail other buildings will ' string out on both hides of main s. reut crowding Stewi-rt's addition off the map. Th.s men who formerly conducted saloons were business men and you bet yo'.T boot straps ninety-nine per cent if them have the business bug buzzing in their ears. When crowded out of one line they engage in some other for they have got to invest capital Into something. It seems from an ob servation squinted from off the hill sides hereabouts that the retail gro cery is still quite attractive and oh, how dearly the merchants do eke , out an existence In such an uphill game when all they have to do is Join the 4L's and draw big wages and live like a prince. ' I suggest that the next man starUnrf a retail grocery here In the city have oblivion. Personally, I was fortuuoly the hnlroglyphics "UAH" reminding us born with a 'cry generous nature; ' of a former age removed from the it bus alwaya been my mission It tllelng on front of the building alt life to let my opponents (!n discussion ho 'huu my permission to "dab" up of this sort) down very gently and Ihose markings on the buildings re easy with a certlan eccrentlc line ot.dolent of the fine art practised during thought. There Is absolutely no trace j the aforesaid age. I would have the ot a spirit Indicative of the arbitra riness of finality In any of my work like for tastaac as could b xeisp- newcomer live up to the Sykes' Idea of cheap local patriotism. Ball local articles atyira tWl mat Cattf- The Aibuckle synonym, which, who do I mean "yea. the baby as Reives In some wonderfully high capacity at fhe Creamery, says to me "If you 4Lers had a store of your own with one of your, own men In as manager why, every drummer us came along would sting him and you fellows would soon go broke. What do you know about that? When buflness men hand us boquets. wh'ch cast a darkened reflection ou our intelligence they proJuce an hi- sfMDtaneou blossom that w'll bloom I as long as men run a business they can call absolutely their own. It would please me Immencely to have the business men get together anl stir up some mix of an economic bat t';r that succeeds to Justify their ex ii-tanoe as Independent units, who perchance should have the right to conduct their business to' suit their own sweet selves. At the same It i ligation I would like them to show how It comes they are superior crea tures and entitled to live on the fat of the land. Let them be energetic, stir their batter so vehemently as to cause It to do the gymnastic stunt of slopj-fng over the entire northwest the 4itrs will delight In wading through it. When a worker of my type Is out of employment "Everything going out nothing coming In." Why writing calling attention to some things that are badly out of Joint is excitement for the nervous system Maybe In time our legislators and a f"w other 'business men may come to see some things about unemployment that common workmen have exper ienced for years, then and then only will we begin to read different idea "In a Spirit of Fairness." The products ot labor, we always have an opportunity to purchase, but the right to produce the products are often denied us. Think of it, 130,000 machines lying around Idle. We were all busy, when the war was on why not now? An industrial arrangement which decrees the Job shall look for the man. Instead of the man looking for a Job is the most desirable. Co operation of the right kind is the best solution for our economic problems. The business men are inclined to stand pat and let things drift along. The 4L's are determined some change shall be made and are eager to ap tly most any remedy; call It "The great Illiptical aslat'.cjl pan tieular enervous cordial" r any thir.g, if it has a promise o' effecting a cure for some undesirable economic condition, we are for giving it trial. The "Sykes dope" doesn't ar peal to us. Donald W. McKinnon Editor News: Having come recently to Spring field wth the intention of making it my home, I wish to say a few words In regard to wtyait may be done to make the town more atrao tlve. Certainly thrt, town Is advantag eously situated to make a prosperous little clty and U Is everyone's duty to make it so attractive that people 'will be glad to come here to live. Finely paved streets are a great asset to any town but they can ba made much, mora attractive by plant ing trees of one variety on each side of the streets, ' People who come west to live or tourists passing through any town, remember the distinctive features of the place. There Is nothing more attractive than trees and surely in this vicinity they make a wonderful growth In, a short time. One great big Tree Planting day could be made a pleasure instead cf thinking of it as a lot of hard work. Perhaps some plans can be ar ranged for a Tree Planting festival. Very truly. L. D. M.
