"A PHIL 20, 1921 POLICE CAPTURE BOOTLEG STILL Thr wan some boo7-e enforcing excitement In the city last night, cihsM by the sheriff locating an idle iitil.,ln the brush along Bear creek, Mouth of the city, and the arrival of a man with two quarts of whiskey in a suit case on the late train from tl.e north. These incidents were not con nected, only that they related to tho violations of the prohibition lawr. ' As ft net result of the excitement. the stranger with the two quarts of booze got away, no one knows who owns the atlll, and 1)111 Sham, the taxi driver who hauled the booze laden vtranger to a placo in the residence district was arrested later by Patrol man Hempstrcct on tho charge, of In toxication, for which he was fined $25 -d costs in Judge Taylor's court this forenoon. Sheriff Terrill, Deputy Sheriff Mo Mahon and NlKht Patrolmen Adams and Hempstreet took part in the ex citement which started by some one tipping the sheriff off to the fai t tho still wail lying In the brush along Bear creek. The sheriff and his dep uty forthwith went there and pounced upon tho still which was a fine nnd complete one with coils, lying quietly in a grain sack.

Tho slacker matter was treated as highly confidential. Tho bonus bill was read to the Joint session with the Ladies' Auxil iary by Colonel K. E. Kolley, nnd It Has the concensus of opinion that the last lcglslaturo had pnBsed "the buck to tho pcoplo" with the bonus bill. II was also argued by various speak ers that tho bonus should have been Klvon to the ex-servlco men "without quibbling." It was shown by Ralph Cowgill that 0 per cent of the cx sorvlce men would avail themRclvcs of tho homo loan, and not tho cash feature of the bill. It was decided to request the Jack son county delegation In the legis lature to tnko the stump In bohnlf of tho bonus, bill. Ono of tho members nan announced his Intention of doing so, and thn others aro going to be asked to follow suit. It was also decided to hold a cab aret during tho summer on a largo scale. After tho session light refresh ments wero served by tho Ladles' Auxllllnry.

Urntriil For Your Furniture Polish For Your Floors OM0P At Alt Dealer COULD SAVE ONE BILLION (Continued from face One) omployces, tho exhibit advocated co oporutlvo effort botwon manaRement nnd workerfl and added that this co operation could heat be obtained through tho medium of uniform aKrcemeiits reached by collective bar gaining. Recoverable and easily estimated wastes wero divided by the exhibit under nine heads having to do largely with construction and care of loco motives and shop machinery, cost ac counting nnd labor turnover. The wnstoa which tho 'unions said could not bo estimated In terms of money Included a variety of subjects ranging from defective train equip ment and tracks through allegations of incompetent and extravagant man agement. In tho Inst class emphasis was laid upon publicity nnd advertising and on what tho unions thought was un necessary legal expenses. Such ex penditures. It was claimed, have served to increase and have been charged wrongfully to operating costs. It was also charged that much of the defective equipment which the managements of tho road are using as an argument for tho need of de creased wage costs, could have been avoided if the roads had declared loss liberal dividends nnd use a proper proportion of their earnings to es tablish replacement funds. OPPOSE REPEAL LAND BANKS two foregoing conditions. "More factories and more people not the only or the chief path that leads to community prosperity. The mere inereuK in population wouiij not account for one tenth of the in t Tease in business in tho last ten or Hie last fifty years of modern com mercial development. "Real bUHiness progress conifH from the intelligent endeavor to uteadlly ral.se the plane of living. "Nor does industrial expansion de pend upon the supplier of raw ma terials to any BUch extent us is com monly supposed. Full it Ivor, Mukr., a nd Manchester, N. II., spin cotton; Newark, N. .1., maker leather; Iiuttle Creek turns out health foods; Detroit leads in the production of automo biles: Dayton, Ohio; makes cash regis ters and counting devices; while the raw materials for all theHe things hnve to be brought great distances. f!mnd Rapids turns out enormous quantities of mahogany furniture, but lias to bring the mahogany lumber across half of the United States before it is at hand for manufacturing. The courage to undertake now things, t branch out into new fields, to' struggle against seeming impossi bilities these are qualities of the spirit and are the vital forces In com mercial progress. "Further than initiative, enterprise and courage the business men of to day must recognize their interdepen dnnce on one another and the vitlues of co-operation and organization. Dis aster to one irrevocably spells propor tionate disaster to all. Value of Co-oiH'ratlon. "Not many years ago the banks of Chicago were so jealous of one an other that n. rustomeP could jivrnmid bis loans right among the banks of the city without the slightest fear of discovery. Finally the Walsh failure with its enormous losses, jarred the banks into co-operation. , "The business man who Imagines that he can live independently of the activities of his fellow citizens, is en gaging in costly self-deception. Kvery civilized man is dependent upon others. The retailer needs customers, the lawyer clients, the doctor patients, the manufacturer laborers, the work er, employment. "The whole fabric of civilization Is so woven thut no thread may be ne glected without the Imperfection showing. It may appear like the va poring of a dreamer to say that cities must set about the development of eltizeiiH with vision; must create line community ideals; must raise th- standard of citizenship, even though other matters are neglected: but it is thetie IntungihfaL- things that have made cities Kreat all the way down through history. "It is not mere numbers that count. For ages China had the most popu lous cltlea of tho world.- The black population of Africa far outnumbers the white, but because it wants few of the so-called necessaries of life there is little business in the black regiona; because no value is set upon the arts and sciences, both are absent; be cause no high ideals hold sway, thero is no progress. The Civic Spirit. "There arc scores of American cities with sufficient population to do the work of ancient .Athens or Flor enc0 or Venice. Hut these American cities lack tho spirit, the intangible force to drive ahead on right lines. Perhais it would he more nearly cor rect to say that the American cities have not organized their citizenship to the end of bringing out all the genius, all the enterprise, all the thion their people possess. "It is this organization of the spiritual forces lor human advance, that the Chamber of Commerce is called to promote. Surely it is worth hlle.
