JtoMt happens when yon stop baying you refuse to bay from the dealer. The dealer won't bay from the job ber. The jobber won't buy from the manufacturer. The manufacturer waa't bay your customer won't tar YOU suffer. The above is the striking lead to an article appearing on the fraut page iovcr f a recent issue of "The Insurance Field. ' The article was prepared by the Glens Falls Company, insurance, and in startling presentation of the evil ef fects of the toluggieh market.

"We are going through a per fectly natural period of readjustment," he says, ' 4 which has followed every great war in history." Certainly the times are. changing.

PROTESTS AGAINST PRESENT SYSTEM OF ENFORCING GAME LAW IN COUNTY To the Editor of The Gazette: I hope you will give me space in your paper for this. I want to' know why the eounty don't elect a game warden that will do his duty. I am informed that a Mr. Witherspoon is the game warden for Cherryville township and the farmers are pestered by hunters here and I have not known Mr. Witherspoon to arrest any man for violating the game law or do anything. ..Men have hunted opossums here by the first of October and have It 1 -11' l .!

" Yours truly, MR. J: C. GRISSOM, Rings Mountain, N. C, R. No. of unemployed, hard times for everyone. What's the remedy! Buy now! Buy your full normal purchases of the essen tials, but BUY! If you don't buy essentials now, you're helping to create business disaster, for prices will come down with a thud. If you don't' buy now, prices which have already been lowered, will continue ts come down but slowly and safely to your business and the, country's business. If you do buy low, you will be buying at seduced prices, yet helping to stabilize fcasiaess in general. And when you help to stabilize business in general, you're helping your own business. . ' If yon do buy now, it will enable the saaa you bought from to buy, and the endless chain charted above will work to your benefit instead of to your disaster. i W believe it is the duty of everybody j ia the interests of the nation and in his j . ewa Interests, to buy now. Wo believe it v is the duty of everybody to assert conn- j 4enee by spreading the jrord and stimu lating others to buy. We believe the American good sense once it stops to re- fleet--will agree that prices should not . descend ia a few days from the height .. which they were fife years in ascending. ' ' v . 1 SHOP AT HOME. ' "Before buying any Christmas articles elsewhere; ask yourself these questions: Is my borne merchant not prepared to gxre me satisfactory values at prices as . low as are consistent with the quality of .the goods sold! Does the fact that ."is a borne man' and aiding in the devel 'opment of my home community not en ... title him to my patronage! Is it not of .advantage to me to buy right at home where any error can be corrected, or any --emsstisfactory purchase be made good without delay! Does that mail order man do anything to help build up my -city! If everyone who contemplates -snaking .holiday purchases away from borne would ask himself these questions, the result might be, in a good many cases t least, a change of mind." Twin City ' Sentinel. , -,., Gastonia merchant are offering ft large and assorted display of Christmas jpfts and merchandise. They -ought to be patronized at all times by Gastonia shop pers, but more especially in these times of financial stringency every dollar pos sible should be kept at home to stimulate borne industries. Every dollar that you end or carry out of your city i hinder ing the restoration of good times here. Shop at home. AN INSTANCE. The reputation for lawlessness and crime that is attaching to Gastonia and Gaston eounty these last few weeks is not at all desirable. Outsiders are get ting to- where they can hear, and some- : times believe, almost any story from Gas- ton eounty. ' For instance, a report yesterday gain- j ed wide credence on the streets of Char- . lotto that a man and a woman bad been murdered in some woods near Gastonia. Bo insistent was the rumor that Char- ' lotte newspapers at a late hour last night asked this paper for an official confirma tion or denial of the report. And, as it : turned out, it all grew out of a hold-up perpetrated in Mecklenburg county. ,We must mend our ways, else outsid ers will be giving Gaston county the go- by. k . Despite the depression which has pre vailed in business circles there is an air - of optimism prevalent this week because of the resumption of work by the cotton mills. General opinion is that the hard est times are over, and that by the first of the year normal conditions will pre vail. Sit steady in the. boat, and quit rocking and knocking. - . 00 Every now and then we see something in the papers about a "joint legislative committee." And we thought the joints had all been legislated out of existence. A monkey was introduced as a witness iu a murder case in Constantinople. That's one time nature got ahead of the lawyers. If De la Huerta lives till tomorrow, he will hav acquired the unusual title of ex-president of Mexico. Maa in Massachusetts refuses to accept a legacy of a million dollars because Christ would have refused it. In his place, we wouldn t be able to forget that Christ was crucified. We wouldn't accuse any one of profi teering, but the man who rents an eight- room bouse for $35 a month and then sublets two rooms, unfurnished, .for $20, sure is a darn good business man. Military forces have raided a lunatic asylum in Ireland. And, no doubt, found tho comparatively sane condition of the lrniatfts a welcome change.

DETROIT HIGH SCHOOL AIDS STARVING CHILDREN The cry of three and a half millions of starving children in Central and Southeastern Europe for food to keep them alive this winter is finding warm hearted response among the schools of America. The teachers and ntudcnts of Detroit Junior College and Central High School have just sent to The Lit erary Digest Child-Feeding Fund a con tribution of $1,148.13. Many other schools are preparing to boost the fund, which already has passed the first mil lion mark. Wo don '1 mind tho weather forecast of "little chango in temperature," but wish wo didn't hve so little chango in our pocket. Maybe, as tho editor says, Garland, of Masaschiisetts, deserves an extra wreath; but if ho persists in doing as Christ would have done, he will probably get a crown of thorns. I About tho biggset and most probable mistake the G. O. P. can make now is to sit back and assume that because the women voted Republican this timo they always will. Kansas City Star.
