Need of United Concern
and Action
A community made up of people all working together
to accomplish what is best for all is the right kind of com
munity in which to make vour h< me. This is the idea
that has dictated much of the editorial matter that has ap
peared in the Beacon for many, many years. But how to
put this idea into definite and concrete form is always the
everlasting problem. How to gel our citizens to working
along for the common welfare of everyone living in the
county is the question.
Right now out people are facing a time when every
element of life as it effects us should come together in an
effort to relie /e a spirit of depression that is almost general
throughout the community. Suppose all organizations that
are a part of our life here would come together in a spirit
of concerted action for the purpose of promoting the best
interests of our community. Set aside distrust and make a
determined efforc to establish confidence and faith in each
other. If everybody would make such an effort and en
deavor to religiously carry it out there would be no reason
for dissatisfaction and distrust, and pretty soon this com
munity would thrive and go forward in leaps and bounds,
i people would be happier, commercial interests would be
more prosperous, civic life would be more enjoyable and
pleasant and a general life of genuine prosperity would
surround us.
Suppose every organization, such as farmers clubs,
fraternal orders, women’s clubs and other such organizat
ions in their next meeting would discuss this thought, and
then if thought wise and expedient, appoint a suitable
member to meet as a committee from every organization,
and then a more thorough discussion be made.
We think some real, constructve good might develop.

TROUBLE
By Using
Gum-Dipped Cords
The original cost of the famous Firestone Gum-Dipped Cord
is no more than that of an ordinary tire the ultimate cost
much less.
Gum-Dipoed Cords last much longer and give far greater
service Th e trouble is reduced to a minimum with these
wonderful mileage makers.
The exc'usive Gum Dipping process gives these tires ad
dhicnal strength to stand up under the most grueling test to
which they can be put. It protects them from the heat of
friction and the rotting of moisture because every strand of
c i'd in the tire is impregnated with tough, lively rubber.
