The male members of the community form their commer cial clubs, hold th r mass meetings and enter into all the ac tivities that help to make a city grow and prosrper. They nat urally look upon themselves as responsible for the prosperity of the community, but in this they are grievously mistaken. THE WOMEX OF THK COMMUNITY HAVE FULLY AS MUCH TO DO WITH THIS MAKING OK A UVK AXD l'KOG KKSSIVE CITY AS HAVE THK MEN.

IT HAS BEEN ESTIMATED THAT FULLY 80 PER CENT OF THE RETAIL BUYING IX EVERY COMMUNITY, LARGE OR SMALL, IS DONE BY WO MEN. THE MEN' MAY PROVIDE THE MONEY WITH WHICH THE BUYING IS DONE, BUT THE MONEY IS SPENT BY THE WOMEN. Everyone recognizes the fact that th e prosperous town is one in whicTi the people keep their money at home by buying their merchandise from the home merchants instead of send ing it away to either the retail merchants or the mail order houses of other cities. A town is like a business corporation and the wealth of the town is its capital. When money Is sent away from a town to buy merchandise which can be bought at home that money is gone forever and the capital of the town is impairied to that extent. If this procedure continues for any length of time, the town, like the corporation whose assets have been dissipated, faces certain bankruptcy. There are other ways, of course, in which the women may aid in building up their communities. They may have their ' civic societies and their city beautiful associations. They may even in many communities, nowadays, vote for good men to fill the city offices, but more than In any of these ways THEY CAX HELP BUILD I'P THEIR TOWN BY USING THEIR BUYING POWER IX A WAY THAT WILL BRING PROSPERITY TO THE BUSINESS MEN OF THE TOWN. You who are mothers want your children to have the advant age of good schools. You want them to have the protection that is furnished by a well-lighted, well-policed and well-governed city. You want your husbands to prosper in their busi ness or their trade. You want the comforts and conveniences of home that come only with good wages ndsOresperoiy) busU ness conditions, BCT DO YOU REALIZE TO THE FULL THE FACT IF YOU ARK TO HAVE THESE THINGS THAT YOU WANT FOR YOURSELVES AND YOUR LOVED ONES YOU MUST DO WHAT YOU CAN TO MAKE YOUR TOWN GROW AND PROSPER T The one way in which you can do most to aid your town Is to do ALL your buying from your home merchants. You may think that it will do no particular harm if you sent a few dol lars away to the mail order house, butyour neighbor and your neighbor's neighbor may think the same thing, and your dol lars added to their dollars may make a total that will UNDER MINE THE ENTIRE BUSINESS STRUCTURE OF YOUR TOWN.

When they are not prosperous they are forced to diminish the size of their sales forces. They me compelled to "lay off" clerks-, and they cannot pvy good wages to Ihose who keep their places. They cannot erect new store buildings, Hie construction of which would give employ ment to carpenters and bi ickmasons and plumbers, and mi n of many trades. They arc forced to reduce their stocks and Ih taxes which they pay for the support of the town and Its pub lic Institutions are reduced proportionately. IN A WORD.

Closes With Elaborate Banquet A POPPING GOOD BUSINESS E. R. Merritt, who recently fitted up a modern popcorn wagon in con nection with his lunch business, jseenis to have a cracking good busl- I ness and a rattling good trade the way the popping corn cracks and the nickels rattle into the cash box. Mr. Merritt started in business in a very small way four or five years ago and has built up from nothing to his pres ent modern equipment. He has the latest model i nan electrical popcorn machine and says if things keep com ing his way for another five years he will be mighty near ready to re tire. A slant on the amount of pop corn he sells may be gathered from the fact, that Tie used 16 pounds of butter last week to give the proper flavor to his product. BOARDMAX CORRESPONDENT DE FENDS POLITICIAN'S Edjtor The Herald Heppner, Oregon. Dear Sir: I feel that I trespassed somewhat on your space last week when you present voluntarily subscribed While short notice of the meeting together with the almost impassably condilion of the roads prevented a heavy attendance at the mass meet ing held here last Sunday in the in terest of freedom for Ireland, the 2!) men present made good when the call for subscriptions for certificates for bonds of the Irish Republic was made, P. A. McMenamin, who Is acting as county chairman for the drive in Morrow and Gilliam counties, called the meeting to order and after stating its object and readine the official call issued by President de Valero t tin? liberty loving people of the United States to rally to the financial sup port of the little, green isle, he called upon a number of gentlemen present to express their views on the Irish situation. In his remarks Mr. Mc Menamin made it clear that no bonds are being offered for sale at this timo only certificates which call for bonus at such time ah- ihe Republic of Ire land has bcn officially recognizui internationally and all British troops iiad been withdrawn from Irish soil. John Kilkenny made a short but eloquent, appeal to all Irislimen and the descendants of Irishmen to do their part at this time when the old home-land Is in such dire need of fi nancial assistance. Rev. Father Cant well was the prin cipal speaker of the afternoon and proved himself to l-e at once an elo quent. -logical and forceful speaker. John F. Kenny, pie.sideiit of (he lixl looge ot Hibernians, ajnd several oth er gentlemen also spoke briefly. Following Hie addresses every mail Un published my letter In regard to cer tain political matters w'hich were re cenlly stirred up by the Hum dina n- ites, still there was one thing which I did feel like expressing myself upon certificates In sums varying from to ilOOO, the subscriptions aggregat ing $.l,K(ill.
