This referendum, is re-submitted to the members because of the tie vote This is the Today, March 21st, is the first day of ' Spring the day that everybody has agreed upon as the time when "business will open up." Business is here. It starts from now. It should be greater every day. Industry is awakening. On all sides you see the evidences of this. In every news paper you read of resumption of work. Back to normal! It is a cheering thought Employer, employee, dealer and customer are , glad of it, Out in the country the crops are being ; put in asof old. Mother Nature never takes . a vacation. She is swinging into her spring work, making theseeds sprout and the crops grow. The food of the world is going to be produced. The foundation of all prosperity exists as it always did.

The community chest ballots are printed on blue paper and are the only ones that will be counted. These are returnable with the final election bal lots in the numbered envelopes pro vided for that purpose. A greater interest in the referendum is being displayed ecause of the closeness of the previous vote and it is the desire of the board of directors that a greater number of the members avail themselves of the privilege of voting in order that a true expression of the membership may be obtained. Both ballots arc absolutely secret. Stage and Screen Billie Burke Triumphs nillie Burke, dainty star, has tri umphed again. In her latest picture. "The Education of Elizabeth," which was presented at the Kialto theatre yesterday, she is seen as a chorus girl, irresistably fascinating, quaint, chic, rough and ready and charming thru out. There are numerous laughable say ings of the chorus girl and despito her iincouthncss, ono loves her. When her education is in progress, there are scenes of exceptional interest and up peal and one leaves the theatre with the feeling that he has made the acquaintance of a decidedly worth while creature. That this is ono of the best pictures starring Blllio IlurUe seen in many moonB, is emphatically true. The supporting company head ed by Donald Cameron is excellent and the production praiseworthy in every respect.

GRAVE ECONOMIC FACTOR PARIS. The Fu-ncli householders are still paying more thai: four times the pre-war prices for the necessities of life, although there has been a big decline in the ccst of living. The French government has made public figures comparing the living cof;t in France with those in the Unit ed States as given by llnidstreet's and for Great Britain, as given by the Statist. These show that the peak of the cost of living in all three countries was attained in April, 120. Taking the prices of 1913 as normal, or 100 percent, the prices of necessities in April last jear are given as 687.5 per cent in France; 225.1 in the United Suites and 313.1 in Great Britaiu. According to the government fig ures these percentages had declined in December last to 434 percent in France and 243.5 in Great Britain. Tho figure for the United States in No vember last was given us 147.!) per cent. The December figures veto not given. Most of the French newspapers find the joy of the reduction in the cost of living tempered by knowledge that It is still more than four times higher than in 1913 and that it is ac centuated by much unemployment. count more and more, when mutual under standing and helpfulness will bring their lasting benefits; The roads are getting better, the shops are showing the new things, people are putting money into circulation. Your dollar, paid out for a necessity, does not stop working. It keeps going on and on increasing the volume of business. "Good times" are coming back with the sunshine and the flowers, with the hum ming of machinery and the song of the whistles. The hour for moping and com plaining has gone; the time for hustling and prospering is with us. In the automotive industry the news is encouraging. Passenger car and truck manu facturers are welcoming the first day of spring with increased activities to satisfy .the coming demand. And here in the Goodrich plant the open- ing of spring finds us ready to serve our old and new customers through the Goodrich dealers in the efficient manner that has char acterized our organization for fifty years.

Juan Fermi ndez island, 450 mlUn west of Valparaiso, wiilfly regard Ld as the spot around which thw story of Kohinson Crusot1 waa written, in to be turned into a lieulth reort, uccordiiiK to present plans of the Chilean government. The island is 13 miles long, ami four miles wide. Vegetation is abun dant. Many kinds of fruits thrive there and the sea in the vicinity swarms with a speoes of codfish and quantities of neals, according to a re cent visitor. The actual original of Defoe's story of Crusoe was said to have been Alexander Selkirk, one of a crow of bucaneers, who quarreled with his skipper and was marooned at his own req.ue.st on Juan Kernandez, where h spent four lonely years. The grotto whero Selkirk is supposed to hnv lived with his man Kriday still is t bo seen. A Hrltlsh warship visited the Island in 18 tiS and members of the crew erected a tablet in memory of Selkirk. Sorno years ago the Chilean govern ment attempted to colonize the island and gave free passage to emigrants, but tho scheme was a failure and the island now has only 200 inhabitants. The Philippine Islands export more cocoanut oil than any other world section. W.C.T.U. DRIVE a 01 ii urn r MdriLMiiu rim MORE MEMBERS ASHLAND, Mar. 21. Enlisting a million new members in the ranks of the Women's Christian Temperance union is the objective of that organiza tion within a year, a goal towards which the Ashland unit of the national body, through county and state chan nels, is energetically assisting in the accomplishment of a much desired re sult. "Child Welfare" is a cardinal principle of the union's extension work, and on last Friday evening, at the Haptlst church, local citizens had the pleasure of greeting .Mrs. Lottie Harmon, slate organizer and superin tendent of this specific department. whose activities center largely In con ducting mothers' meetings. A survey of child welfare needs is a prerequisite in any community, and this being ac complished, details follow along pie- scribed methods for obtaining tangible and desired results. "Every child has the right to be well born" is the main contention, and this being granted, tho struggle for both physical and spiritual supremacy Is more than half won during tho formative period of childhood and youth, so that when adult age Is attained the qualifications of an ideal citizenship are developed The Christian mother dominates the entire, situation, consequently in be half of the child the mother is not only entitled, hut should receive the lull measure of encouragement, a la bur of love which the W.
