The civic organizations of Springfield are going to give prises for the best gardens anti most improved premises this season. ITobably there has uever been a time when there was a better reason that each family should have a garden than now a good garden can contribute much to the sup­ port of any family. There are few spots on the globe where a greater vari­ ety of vegetables can be raised than in this vicinity. If you haven’t a garden plot the city council has volunteered to find you one. Getting back to the soil not only helps one to help him­ self but also elevates depressed spirits. In the garden all men, rich or floor and with every political creed, tind a com­ mon ground to meet on. l^et the garden movement go for­ ward. Congressman Hawley has decided that be will stay on the Job in Washington and not come home for the primary election. With Mott, Hulet and Howard after the nomination he probably figures the folks at home will be sufficiently en­ tertained. We suggest to the board of higher education and its chairwoman that in the interest of economy the high sal­ aried position of football coach at the two major schools be consolidated. Then the football coach be required to live at Saleui so lie will not become too close to either school. -------------e------------ In the last ten years government has increased fifteen times as fast as the population. But let's not blame it all onto Washington because the most expensive part of our democracy is the home government in our cities, counties and school districts. We can see that those consolidated deans are going to be on a hot spot during football season next fall. Waving two sets of colors is going to be like voting dry while drink­ ing a glass of beer. ----------«---------- It seems difficult to believe that with 120 millions to pick from only the most dishonest and unreliable citizens ever get into public office. If true, it sort of reflects on our intelligence and fitness for self government. ----------------- g ----------------- Tis the modern age. At one stroke the board of higher education abolishes the $10,000 Oregon school of Journalism and approves the $36,000 state college radio. Both were done, too, in the interest of economy. An Ohio girl broke her nose while powdering it. ably the mirror was at fault. Prob- The best safety device is the one above your ears. Use it. ----------------- g ----------------- Editorial Comment B O T H S E N T IM E N T A L A NO S E L F IS H Most of tbe arguments concerning trading at home have been worn out w ith constant repitition. Yet tbe subject is s till a vital and an Im portant one. During the past few years there have been im portant chaDge» fu merchandising. T he argum ent by most local merchants is not now so much to trade at home as to trade with the p articu lar type of store that they represent. M ail order business ha- declined and most of the m ail order houses have established th eir re ta il outlets. T he method of distributing merchandise over the counter, a per­ sonal transportation between buyer and seller, was never more firm ly established than today. That Is a favorable fact for local merchants. The appeal to people to buy at home must be put upon more than mere sentim ental grounds, though there is force to tbe argum ent of loyalty to friends, neighbors and customers. M any people in small communities state that they cannot buy as cheaply at home as in some distant point. Sometimes facts bear out this argum ent. But when people live in a small com munity they must expect to do business on the basis that is essential to success ot business in a sm aller town. It is selfish to expect your customers to pay the price that you ask and yet be u nw illing to pay fa ir prices for what you buy of them. Business must be done at a profit. I f you get a profit yourself you must expect to pay one to the other fellow. W e are not discouraged about the sma.l town and city. Some folks say that decline of the sm aller centers is inevitable. T here is little to prove It. Population Is not growing as rapidly in sm aller com munitieg as in tbe cities. But the cities have grown to rap id ly— too many of their people have no work. Population is no asset unless that population is well employed. On every hand there is evidence of im provem ent in small com­ munities. That improvement consists of better streets, school“, high­ ways. homes and stores. And w ith a ll of these things th e re is a most reasoning evidence of com munity loyalty— a spirit which makes for sound development aud for general good w ill. W hen you trade at home you help other people to trade w ith you. These are both sentim ental and selfi h reasons for trading with your neighbors.— Herald-Review , Grand Rapids. Minnesota. ----------------- ------------------- Q /je FAMILY / DOCTOR J . jomn oseph gaines m o DANGER OF WORRY One of the most dangerous Influences seems to be a- broad in these strenuous days, and it is growing as our eares increase. I can think of nothing quite so harmful to human well-being as WORRY. Both worry and happiness are states of mind; but lat­ ter is the thing most sought for; men will toil, strive and wreck mind and body in pursuit of that elusive phantom— Happiness. It seems paradoxical, for a man to worry him­ self insane, in his quest of bliss. The patient that 1 really, down in my heart dread to meet— is the victim of self induced worry. 1 know of no drug that will help him, and, too frequently good advice slides off him like water off a duck's back. Some, indeed, seem to me to find a sort of suicidal gratification in worry over things that are often not worth crying about. The man who lies awake nights, grows thin, disagree­ able, and hard to get along with, will soon develop a hyper­ acid stomach and very aggravating indigestion. Then he consults the doctor. 1 have traced many a case of acidosis to plain, old-faBhioned worry. It will most certainly under­ mine the constitution if persisted in. "Having food and raiment be ye therewith CONTENT.” What a prescription that Is! Unfailing in results too. A con­ tented life is a happy life. It’s wise to work while the sun shines, for the rainy day is quite certain to come. But there is no sense in tearing one's system down in a struggle for so-called happiness, which is after all illusory in many cases; simple contentment will turn the trick quicker and better than a cart-load of bromide. Pardon me for writing things that can be understood. / sentimentality toward Jock A yle- ward. even of that sentimentality of an over emphasised dislike.
