' ' ^ ! ; > . ?*'' ?? - | Friday, Feb. - 10, 1922 GET OUT OF THE RUT OF COMPLAINT? / All round us are he^pd the grumblings anent the hard tim es; and the awful plight into which a majority of us have been placed, as a natural result of the readjustment process, which is and has been taking place throughout the country. It cannot be denied that a se rious deflation has resulted, from the over-speculation of the war era; it was a natural result of the orgy, of spending a1?d the injudicious extension of credit. We .people right here in this section?in this town and county?were guilty of the suae gross indiscretion, both in enension of credits and in our schemes to get rich quick. To be sure, some braved the period with cool heads; but, they were few. Now, with the country set tling back on an "wen keel," those latter named fellows Who retained their poise, are pes tered by the constant and nev er* ceasing grumblings of the majority, who were the "get nCh-quickers." Brethren, it is rather annoy ing, to sayjhe least; and, to the born optimist, it is becoming nauseating. We cannot get aw ay from the fact that deflation has put many a fellow "in Bad" right here amongst Qs; but, it is an imposition some of us are mildly yet strongly resenting, . to have to forever be pestered by their waitings?the cause of wBich we have had nothing at all to do with, either in their accomplishment or their incep tion. A few years back, we had to stand the bowlings and jeers of the same crowd because we had refused to hop on the band wagon; to join the happy lot who were out for "blood.' They got the blood?but it is then own blood. We still* insist that they who have been the victims of their own machinations in 'speculation try ever so hard to keep their waitings to them selves. We would suggest that they buckle down to the task of xe storation; and becoming so en grossed in their work of reha biliitation, forget to annoy us with their hard luck stories. 0 TRIBUTES OF RESPECT AT ADVERTISING RATES? The HERALD has been slightgly flooded recently with resolutions of respect, tributes of respect, and in memoriams, many of which we have been forced to discard without pub lishing pending further advices from the senders. In two instan ces, no names appeared on fye manuscripts; these, of course, ' cannot be published under any circumstances, until the writer advises us of his or her name. Our columns have been well fil led with these communications lately; and, this week, the of flce has been the recipient of another alarmingly large um her. What we intended to say wa that ail of these tributes to rel ' 1,1 .1 ? atives or to friend*, as the case may be, are accepted by us at a small advertising rate, some thing leas than one-half of the ordinary commercial rate for advertising. Some of our cor respondents seem not to realize the charges are still in effect; a policy to which we must of necessity adhere. It is our cus tom to carry, as news item, the death of any person in this sec tion ; and, we qre always appre ciative of the notices that may be sent to us as a tteWs item.As a matter of news such sketches fall within the pale of hews? and, after all, that's our main . ose?give the nefrc. We cannot, haw ever, accept all of the nice things some friend may want to say, except that it be charged at our reg ular rate for such communica tions. This in no way is intended to discourage such tender re spect to the deceased as these, tributes usually contain; but, as a matter of business, we can not publish all such communi cations without a nominal fee. For, in so doing, we are using our space?which is to say, our salable product?vjhich could otherwise be used for valuable news which will be read and enioyed by all. 0? PICKED-UP and MADE-UP Author Unknown I 11 There fa such a thing as can't but few of the people of this community care to he caught in it's company. Humorists seldom say anything fun ny in their own writings, and at ti mes others agree with them. Why this suggested movement of longer skirts in the future? Our eye sight remains perfectly good. Dont worry about the fellow who claims 'that he can lick anyone in sight. His vision may be limited to Kids. * "Bonus" may have a jarring sound to some people, but "ingratitude" is far worse to the majority of bs. It may be possible to reform the dance in this country, but we must reform the dancers first. - The popular method of committing suicide is to get in the way of a speed maniac. That insures appropriate newspaper mention. Those women who live upon their income mus? necessarily be careful; those who live upon the incomes of others must be clever; and those who live upon their debts, rast be both. * " ?11,1'-v.' J Flowery language is permissible on ly when the flowers are perfectly fresh. The girl who thinks no man is gOod enough for her, may often be right, but she is more often left. "It doesn't take much strength to shake *n old town to its foundations. A very light woman has often done it." Ahoslde offprs a man in the case. The door of the brain is often the shortest cut to the heart. COMO ITEMS Miss Antoinette Picot went to Rocky Monnty Friday, to be with her sister, Miss Marietta Picot, who is very sick at that city.
