ITE HAVE had so little real winter V V weather m far this year that our people have hardly realized its be ing here. However, the rather balmy weather of the lat week is a remin der, even if a severe seige does set in, that Spring is in the offing and with it will come days of activity. Are we preparing now, planning the spring's work, that it may be system atized, so that our toil may be made to count for the utmost? People are prone to take life so easy during a lull that they become fat and laiy, and if not watchful of themselves they may overlook the glorious opportunity that is theirs. There is a time for preparation and a time for execution. Now is the time for preparation. When the time comes to get busy, we must pet busy. There is no time then for planning. The work must be done at once. The fact then is self-evident: he who has his work mapped out beforehand will get his work done up in good shape, while he who has neglected to do so will find at the end of the sea son that he overlooked a good half of what should have been done. Then when the harvest comes, prosperity smiles on him who has looked "to his knitting." Ia Heppner going through 1924 with the same eye-sores staring her citixens in the face that they have looked upon all through 1923? Are these self-same citixens thinking about a thorough renovating of their premises? Not only inside, but out side as well? In fact is there any kind of a erne program being planned to make Heppner a more attractive place in which to live? We have beard of none, have you? The time for preparation is at hand. Only few short weeks, and then we should be busy. There is no effective argument against helping our town. We have chosen this place as our abode. While we are here, even though we do not intend to stay long, our abiding will be much more pleasant in a clean, up- to-date community. Then, if we in tend to leave, the attraction which we have to offer a prospective suc cessor would repay us many times in a monetary way. If we are disgust ed with our town, with ourselves and with everyone else, because things happen to be a little tight, let's swal low our loss and pack up. A town that's not good enough to do some thing for should not be good enough for us to live in. This sentiment is not new. We have beard it and so have you.

We know of one plan that might help to find a place to begin. It's not new, either. A good live civic or ganization yes, a Commercial Club would do, if we had one. s-s-s THRIFT, A Message from the Oregon Bankers A association, EVERY true American thrilla at the mere mention of Independence. It is the bone and sinew, the heart and soul of our Democracy. It is that for which our ancestors fought and died in the Revolutionary War. We celebrate with great re joicing each year when Independence Day comes around and we are partic ularly proud of the Declaration of In dependence as the greatest American document. This is as it should be. The attain ment of American Liberty is the fin est achievement in our national life, and in its preservation every one of us would gladly lay down his life. But that is only one kind of liberty, one form of Independence political and religious freedom. There is another and exceedingly important kind of Independence that is directly related to the daily lives. the well-being, comfort and happiness of each one of us: an Independence that ia vital to the preservation of our national integrity. Without it we would degenerate from a nation of sovereign individuals to one of prac tical slavery. This is Economic In dependence; the assurance of being abie to provide for the material needs of life: the physical comforts and even luxuries that can make living today so thoroughly enjoyable. - That is why we celebrate Thrift Week each year. Thrifty living will enable you m later years to look up on Thrift Week as a Holiday Week to show your happiness at having achieved Financial Independence. How can you do it? By starting now to save something systematically each week out of what you earn. Put these savings in the bank at interest and make your money work for you. When a man and his dollars work to- You frheJ frhr Fail Org HJhit Hactleq Frank C. Riblet, from Gallon. Ohio, bad every right to but didn't Riblet'a father owned a store in Gallon and couldn't make it pay. Hia family were la abject poverty.

Next be fired a locomotive and then became an engi neer, holding bis job eleven years. He built a shanty to live In and pent half of each night studying bow to make more money, and starving himself to save every penny. v Then be went to Cleveland and as a free lance tried to sell real estate. He hit upon a novel scheme of taking an option on a lot trading the Lot Cor a grocery store, developing the store and selling It His profits were meagre but they were profits. With them be bought a half interest In a livery stable, paying $86 down. He found himself handicapped by a competitive livery man, so with three city lots bought on option be traded them for bis com petitor's business and gave blm coles in addition. Wltb the profits from both stables be took ap the options and bought more real estate co option. Then Rib let took a 99-year lease on land next to a big hotel, erected a five-story livery barn and doubled bis income. When his wife's health failed be sold out and went to Arizona, living there three years, then returned to Cleveland. He made plans to erect the finest garage in town but stopped to have bis picture taken. Becoming interested In photography he went across the street, rented store, hired the photographer's clerk who bad waited on him. to run It, and started to do business. It became necessary for blm to hire six avsslstants. Recently RIblet became interested in Texas oil wells. He struck U the first shot at 1300 feet He used a peculiar argument In securing capital He Impressed upon each investor that the risk tbey ran was Crest He suggested that each one put In onlv what he could afford to lose In case of failure. Today Eiblet la a well preserved man of seventy-one. and is worth million dollars. gether the result is Prosperity. It is not alone what you make, but how you spend and what you save that counts in the end. And remember that hoarded money is lazy money. Be sure that your money is well invested and is working for you. Dicken s famous character, Mr. Mi- cawber, in David Cope rfi eld, says Annual income 20; annual expen diture, 19 19s 6d result: Happi ness; annual income 20, annual ex penditure 20 6s result: Misery." It ia the margin of saving that makes all the difference and it is the little sums we save regularly that give us the capital on which to build later in life. But it is not in the saving of money and material things alone that one achieves a thrifty life. The wise employment of our time and the conservation of our physical energies are equally important. Time is the essence of our life. The only time we can be sure of is the present moment To live a happy, healthy, contented life, we must make careful and wise expenditure of our time, our abilities and our resources. It is so easy to fritter away our time, dissipate our health and waste our money foolishly. We should make every minute, every ounce of energy and every penny return full value to us. We cannot be thrifty by proxy; the practice of it must be by individual choice and determination. Acquire the habit of spending your money, your time and your strength i as effectively as you can. The immortal Scotch bard, Bobby Bums, with his native canniness, sums up Thrift in these words writ ten to a friend: To catch Dame Fortune's golden smile , Assiduous wait anon her, And gather gear by every wile That's justified by Honor. Not for to hide it in a hedge. Not for a train attendant. But for the glorious privilege Of being Independent Read about men who have done worthwhile things in the world and you will find that they held Thrift as the fundamental, cardinal habit on which to build a successful, happy, respected career. Benjamin Franklin is perhaps the outstanding exponent of Thrift among notable Americans and today we hon or his memory in the observance of Thrift Week. s-s-s Adoption of the proposed Bok peace plan would be an excellent memorial to our late President Harding. In its essence it is much as he would have had it. s-s-s No great rush for marriage licenses has yet been evidenced in Morrow county. But then, maybe the girls don't find this proposin' job so easy after all. s-s-s Sensational front page murder stor ies may soon give way to equally sen sational political dope. Who knows? sss Say, fellows, wouldn't it be great if we hsd a good tennis court to play on here next Spring! CALL FOR COUNTY WARRANTS.
