Ye Editor will soon leave for Mooseheart, and.Ye Editor’s Son will henceforth write in this column. In other words this will be a column of Assistant Editorials. If they are not satisfactory, keep in mind the fact that it will not be for long. Further more, don’t come a-gunning for Ye Son, for remember that he is a fast runner. We will try to please all the people all the time—of course that is im possible—but that is the reason we are going to try and do it. CAMPAIGN CLOSES Sunday morning at *the Gaz ette's Salesmanship Campaign came to a close. A Durant, Overland and Ford were igiven to the three highest contestants ; and this in spite of the fact that even until the twelfth hour town gossipers said the cars would not be awarded. We take this maens of thanking and congratulating the contestants; thanking them for their work in our behalf, and congratulating them for their ability to stick to a thing, in spite of idle talk. We hope the car winners will not have a speck of trouble, nor blow outs, nor wrecks nor anything. -O LONG RANGE PLANNING OF PUBLIC WORKS Otto T. Mallery, a Pennsylvania authority on unemployment and in dustrial economics generally, has contributed an authoritative chapter on “The Long Range Planning of Public Works,” to the report made by the National Bureau of Economic Research for the Committee on Un employment and Business Cycles, and issued by Secretary Hoover as a result of President Harding’s re cent conference. Mr. Mallery proposes to use public works as ■ balance wheel for out business machinery—a plan long talked of in other countries as well as in the United States. He provides a much more careful estimate than has heretofore been made of the am bunt of public works which might be shifted from boons to depressions and an outline of the administrative measures which would be necessary to make gueh a problem effective. -- Public work* need not give direct employment to more than a small percentage, of the unemployed in or* der to improve the situation. Mr. Mallery believes, because between a year of boom and a year of depres sion than la a difference of only 10 to 20 per cent in the weight of quantity of production. This means that prosperity can be destroyed by only nine sales where ten wen made before. Just at it is the last few hundreds of milliaons of or ders which raise the boom wave to the breaking point, ad. he says, it is the d»t few hundred millions of or ders that eSeck the depression and begin the reconstruction of the in - On© reason why se many people qppose water works is simply be cause water works. -o Rainfall for week, two inches; dustfall, two feet.

That semes to he balkin’ peace. * — Criticism cuts two ways. -O THAT MOOSEHEART TRIP In a few days the Editor hopes to leave on a very important and pleasant trip, when he goes to Mooseheart, Illinois, to attend the annual convention of the Supreme Lodge, Loyal Order of Moose. Mooseheart is the Mecca of the Moose Order. It is the home of thirteen or fourteen hundred child ren of Moose members who have passed to the great beyond, from which none return. These children are being schooled and trained in their own home. Some of the moth ers are there with their children. Re cently, two North Carolina mothers left for Mooseheart with their ele ven small children. One women had four children and the other seven. The father of the seven children had only been a member of the Moose a few months when he died. But that did not matter for today theyare fipg they graduated* some trade and in the m mother is given empl Mooseheart so that she may ««= her ltfved ones. No doubt these two good North Carolina mother® will become good Spends in the hr new home, a city Mttirely owned by the Moose Order. The call of the Moose has a mest wonderful appeal just because of the childhood magnified as Christ exemplified in his ever living words ‘Suffer the little children to come unto Me” —the Comer stone of this idealistic movement that draws men to it. This writer was selected to make the trip because of his position. It thought that he could bring was back a better message and make it known where others, not in a similar position lacked Others stood must go.” been ungrateful. Leaksville-Spray Grocery Co.
