Watch how carefully she protects her chicks. None go astray if she can prevent it. SO it should be with you and your money. The temptations to let your dollars go as tray for things that gain you nothing—are too plentiful. And your dollars are too hard earned to let them slip through your fingers without results. THOSE spare dollars are your “chicks.” If they’re to be of any use in the future—it would be best tat you protect them by start ing a Savings Account with this Bank.

With it, it’s pos ible to enshroud in veil of suspicion a most innocent character. The courts will not accept it as evidence, and certain ly friends should not. Gossip mongers delight in it, and they pass it on, each time enlargeing upon it a little, until after a few passes it has lost all the semblance of fact and be-¡ comes a whispered accusation. Friends are estranged, and often made bitter enemies by it. It condemns without a hearing. And so, let us urge that “hear say” or rumors be nip ped in the bud: that when they come to us, we demand the source; and above all. in justice to the accused, let us be big enough to go direct to him for an explanation More often than not that explanation will remove the shroud of suspicion. In short, let us resolve not to repeat a "hear say.”. Let us first dig up the facts.

We read of mobs of gunmen intimidating voters at the polls in the recent municipal election in Chicago, I and we learn that many citizens of the Windy City un-l doubtedly stayed at home on election day, fearing to risk appearing where they might be shot. Then we re flect that here in Vernonia we can visit the polls, talk. with our neighbors, smoke campaign cigar or two, cast! our ballot and ain without encountering any-1 thing more unpleasant that the necessity of shaking hands with numerous candidates who are making last minute rushes to build their political fences. Whoever! heard of polling places in this town being dangerous? Whoever heard of our people contending with a lot of dis agreeable things that th< ~e who live in the great city by Lake Michigan have to contend with? The more we read and the more we see the more we are convinced that it is decidedly more plea ant to live in a small and friendly town. WE LIVE AND LEARN. ROUND TRIP FARES SI.
