Two Kinds of News
Back in the forties it took mouths for the thrilling news
of California 'a gold strike to cross the contineue. Not
long a^o the President's son died and the people of Cali
fornia knew it as soon as the people of Washington, D.
C. did.
In the early days news spread by word of mouth. To
day tliv telegraph and telephone speed the message into"
the newspaper office, it is rushed into type, the paper is
printed and shortly the news becomes public property.
There are two kinds of news in the paper. One con
sists of the affairs of other people, their sayings, doings
and what they are going to do; things that may happen,
have happenedo r didn't happen.
The other kind of news is your affairs. That's the
part you will find in the advertisements. There's a lot
of valuable news here about things you want or will
want; thingh that have to do with your personal com
fort, convenience and every-day efficiency.
Every advertisement carries a personal message to
some ? ne Many advertisements carry messages of vital
interest or value to you.
That's why you can't afford to miss the advertise
ments.

Johnny Appleseed
In many spots In Ohio may be found
monuments erected to the memory of
fthnny Appleseed, tx.causc?he served
tils fellow men so well antr" did not I
seeH to profit from hie service.
John Appleseed's real name wan
Tohn Chapman, a Massachusetts man
t>orn In 1776, who went to Ohio In
1880 with sacks of applesecds. Why <
be went to Ohio or what his motive l
was in following the path In life h# i
lid le not recorded. <
He was a missionary of the very i
finest type. He carried the sacks of :
seed on the back of his horse, and
when he could not sell them, he gave ,
them away. 1
He not only distributed seeds throu
ghout the countryside, but he often
planted orchards for farmers and
started them on the road to Indepen
dence and prosperity. He took great
pride In his seeds and he wanted them
to grow Into fruit-bearing trees.
On account of biB earnestness of
purpose and his desire to serve, he
was a very successful salesman, but.
he sold on very close margins and
gave away all of his profits to custom
ers who did not pay. He didn't need
much money for his own use, It is re
lated. because his object In life was
not to make money.
But he was in no sense of the word
a beggar, because he paid his way
many times. He was welcomed by
mrny a lonely homesteader of that
early day because of the cheer that he
brought.
When he made apple trees grow
where no apple trees grew before, and
when he left behind Ideas that made
people live richer lives, he enjoyed all
of the pleasures of a man who had
achieved and won success.
And now the people whom he be
friended have risen up and cr.lled him
blessed. His work has lived for a
century.
The world Is still eager for the same
kind of service. It stands ready to
reward with Its richest blessings men
who are actuated, not by the desire for
profit, but by the wish to serve hu
manity.
Many such lives are being ljved now
In every community, some in smaller
some in larger degrees of service, de
pending on the circle in which their
lives radiate.
We need more Johnny Appleseeds
with the one ambition in life to help
others live a richer and fuller life.
Wild-Eyed Driving
"Motorists Kill Three and Injure
Two," says a newspaper headline.
There's nothing particularly unusual
about that. It happens every day in
some city or some rural community.
Lives are continually being slaugh
tered at the altar of the god of speed.
People are becoming so accustomed to
the daily occurence that they no long
er feel the sense of horror that once
accompanied such tragedies.
Wilful disregard of laws and safety
rules, as well as the rules of common
decency, as practiced by a growing
number of motorists, is certain to
bring into being a flood of "thou-shalt
not" bills in the legislature.
Though public sentiment seems to
be asleep, it will flare up some day,
when reckless drivers go the limit,
and decent drivers will have to suffer
in the reaction when the pendulum
swings back.
It would be the part of wisdom to
attempt to curb wild-eyed driving be
fore themany have to suffer tor the
sins of the few.
A CARD OF THANKS.
We wish to extend our thanks to
our neighbors and friends who so
kindly rendered us Bervlce in the sick
ness and death of our father and
grandfather. Their kindness will ever
he remembered.
Walter B. Jenkins and family.
Repenting after you are found out
does not do you much credit.

Pin Money
And OurWiyes
The t?rin "Pin Money" dates back to tin- l-itli century
when pins were first invented.
They, for some unknown reason, were only allowed to
be sol 1 on two days each year and being hand made,
were ' ijdi in price. So it became a custom for money to
be given to women at their marriage to be used for the
purchase of pins.
Today pins are cheap but the custom of giving women
small jums for personal expense still exists.
I
That was tin- 14th century; this is the '20 century. To
day the women are political and social equals of men
and should be financial equals as well.
As th'.' head of your household she should own a check
ing ac .count and not be given just "Jin Money."
