XI 191 ill A iya AMERICAN EXTRAVGANCE \It is an ill wind that blows no man good\ is an old adage as true as it is old. And its application can be seen even to' the gre,at war which has so recently been terminated, as - side from the gaining of the great principles ' fors- which the war was waged upon our part as a nation. Before the war, it was no exaggera- tion to say that the A-nerican people, as a whole, were the mbst extrava- gant \Peopleon the face of the earth. And such is probably still the fact. Born here' as the most of us have been, and growing 'up here as men and women, with little opportunity to the great majority of us, to compare our ways with those of other nations, we probably little realize that such is the case, or realizing it, we give it little heed.' But no one, we think, can dispute the fact. This shortcom- ing of our people—for who shall say that it is not a shortcoming indeed— applies in a 'stronger measure to our city people than to the people. in the smaller towns or rural districts. But wher,e is the community that can hold itself apart from the rest of the coun- try and say, \We are an exception to the ruler If our neighbor buys or builds a new or larger house, a de- sire is born at once in our mind to do the same. And oftentimes this de- sire matures into an actual plan which results in our doing_Iikewise, regard- less of the comAi-aldve financial ab- ility. If the neighbor buys new fur- niture aoci discards the old, that very act will make us look at our own and ponder on whether we can still do with it. And when it comes to his buying a new automobile, the local dealer can bank upon it, that we will he his next patron. And so it goes, until a condition has been brought abom that immediately engages tIlle attention of every foreign visitoLr to otir shores and has long since become a matter of World wide,some ment. Much as we love our native peos. pie. wr can all here take a lesson front the foreigner ss ho comes to live in, our midst. He is gent rally a pirson of very limited means. }iv procures the best employment he can find and whate%er it Mayilic,he reg.- illates his expenditures according to his income and soon has a savings account at the 'bank. - : Though his family lie large, you may find him housed in comparatively small quar- ters. Every inch of available space about his house will be planted to garden truck, and in a few years we find that he has purchased a good ranch or has launched out in some profitable business. Without doubt there are extremes at both ends of the line, and likewise a happy me, dium to be attained. In many parts of the country, especially where min- ing . is the chief industry, :the foreign - cc has been coming in for years, and his lesson has been constantly before us. Yet we have heeded it, not at all. But when Uncle Sam made an earnest appeal to us, as Americans, to save little bf the waste, to help win the war, the country responded nobly, almost to a man Love of country prompted us to do what love of -self could never make us do—slow down just a bit, and in ways that have been a blessing to us as well as helpful to Uncle Sitm. And now that we have been \stopped\—pardon the slip—now that we have been par- tially stopped, why not continue our war time savings, at least in a very great measure. No one will advocate such action to a degree that might injure business in general. But all will agree that we, as Americans, can easily be more saving and less waste, - NI without injuring business condi- tions one whit, and ai l the same time greatly benefit ourselves and fam- ilies. All will be happier, and there will be more for all. it is only the lesson, applied to everything in our daily life, that the saving3 banks and life insurance companies are forever preaching in regard to money—sim- ply this, he more saving, be less wasrful. Will we continue to do for our own good, what We have so willingly done for Uncle Sam? if so it , will be a \good\ blown to ti s by the v.dtid of war. 892 Optimistic Thought. A skeptic Is one who knows too much for a fool and too little fdr 41 Wise man. - OUR RECORD In these days of great strife when the greatest nations of the earth are combined against, and have con- quered, a comtnon enemy, we di:dike to look back upon a date in our his- tory when there 'was some discord between our then infant nation and one a' our present allies. But the people of Great Britain have become broader minded in these twentieth century days and we. have only to turn to the pages of the public press and read of a recent Independenc , day celebration in London and sa- lutea to the Stars and Stripes, li to kticw that the old spirit of discord has passed away. And we know no that Great Britain too indorses the spirit of Americanism which separ- ated us from the niother country in the days of '76 and gave birth to the nation which has so nobly respond- ed to the cry for help from across the sea. Americanism was the same then as it is now. It is the same now as it was then. The spirit that prompted such men as Putnam to leave his plow in the field to op pose the oncoming of the Red Coats was the spirit of the majority of the people of the country. There were Tories then and there have been pro -Germans now. Both secret- ly and openly opposed that spirit which has ever been characteristic of this nation. Great problems of finance had to be met then as they have had to be met now. The na- tional spirit was not then as old as it is now. But the spirit of free- dom, the spirit of opposition of tyranny, the spirit of democracy was then as it is now the controlling passion which when once asserted by an independent people must al- ways prevail. We have Just passed through a period when the people of America have been called upon to give their .sons and their dollars to another righteous cause. They have done so gladly and freely. They have done s6 with the full expecta- tion that further sacrifices would be necessary. It is surely gratifying to know how nobly the country has responded as a whole to the call for help. No portion has been called upon for any different sacrifice than any other. Every community has been asked to do its part. And we of Thompson Falls and Sanders county may indeed look with' pride upon the list of boys who have gone \over there\ from our midst ,and upon the, wonderful response that has been made to every call for finan- cial aid. The people of Thompson Falls and this vicinity surely are to be commended ulion the part they have taken. Every bond issuehas been over -subscribed and not only have local people most nobly re- sponded to purchase Liberty bonds, Thrift Stamps and War 'Savings Sta'trps, which, of course, are gilt edge security, but they have re- Nponded in an equally unselfish de- cree in their donations to the Red Cress, the Y. M. C. A. and other like causes. And no less a spirit of pa- triotism has been displayed by, our good citizens who have given so much of their time and effort to the promotion of all war work activity. The measure of all this response by the people of this vicinity„ coupled as it is with the fact that there has been very little assertion of proGer man sentiment in our midst, is in- deed a just cause for gratification. Sanders County has twice in as many years suffered almost total crop failures and the response has been a double sacrifice to its peo- ple on that account and while we do not claim to have been mcire paini Mk than other sections of the coon try perhaps, still with the success at tabled we can not help from remind- ing ourselves that we deserve the credit we here take.

SACRIFICE THE THING Word Is True Definition of Patri- otism Assertion of Sergeant Davis, Speaker In Ninth District Fourth Lib- erty Bond Campaign. Sergeant Leslie W. Davis, who hails from Kentucky, and is a veteran of the Philippines and Cuba and of the trenches in France and who is • speaker on the war exhibit trains touring the Ninth Federal District, is a reticent man in private life but once he starts talking war he brings the Liberty Loan money out of hiding places in a golden stream. Davis answered the call to the Colors in August, 1917, and went to France in December with Co. E, 21 Engineers and saw active service all along the line, but gas and shell -shock temporarily wound up his fighting ca- reer and he was shipped home to talk for Liberty Loans. Wjaen he landed in Ninth District headquarters, Minneapolis, he did not act like a speaker for he simply gave his name and credentials and said he was ready for service. An effort was made to get him to talk but nobody could get a rise out of him. Finally he was asked point blank: \Davis what do you say to a man who could afford to buy a Liberty bond and doesn't\ The fire leaped to his eyes, his hair seemed to bristle, he bounded ant of his chair and launched into an extem- poraneous oration which trilled every- one in district headquarters. When Davis was through the tears were running down his checks, he was shak- ing like a leaf, and it was necessary to lead him to a chair. No one re- members all he said but they all remember his last sentence: \The true definition of patriotism is sacrifice.\ Well \Arined\! „soios , ptd, tk latT smalie ° \\ ailuso ° When company comes there is no time to waste—no chances to be taken—so mother sees that there is al- ways a can of CALUMET BAKING POWDER on hand.
