The H. C. L.—An Epitome
The cost of living Is high!
Because:
1. Production is less than demand.
2. We kick about the price—but buy.
3. Higher wages mean higher prices.
Helpful hints:
1. Work harder—produce more.
2. Economize—buy less.
3. Save—don’t squander.
Remember:
1. The merchant cannot get more than
you tvill pay.
2. If any article Is too costly, switch
to something else.
3. If you know a profiteer, avoid him.

the introductory sermon, from the sub
ject: “The Story of Human Life.”
The time of the Association was largely
given over to discussions of the “Bap
tist Seventy-Five Million Dollar Pro

high order, and everyone came away
declaring the meeting a great one.

spent in rendering a splendid mission

as a huge finger bowl, and Pastor Ar
nette served as a towel rack.
