The Luxury In Which We Uve
(By Judge C. C. Featherstone)
The very startling statement
made that, by the calculations of the
economist, every man, woman and
child in the United States, has the
equivalent of the services of three
hundred slaves, at his disposal in the
material splendor he and the com>-
fort in which he lives. j
The statement is not mine; it comes!

No, five miles an hour, in a clumsy
vehicle, drawn by horses, or twenty
miles by railroad was the best that
he could get. By the use of 300 slaves,
could he read at the breakfast table
what had transpired in the world the
day before? Or turn on his radio and
listen in on New York, Chicago and
Toronto ?
Could he have picked up his tele
phone and in a few minutes talked to
London ?
Coud he have turned on his electric
lights, by means of his slaves? Tal
low candles, or, at best, kerosene
lamps, would have been the limit.
With his 300 slaves, could he have,
in the winter months, had on his ta
ble fresih fruits and vegetables from
Florida or California?
Could his slaves have turned on the
gas, or the electric heat, and cooked
his waffles, his toast, or his eggs, on
I his table? No. Waffles and eggs from
i the kitchen, several hundred yards
[from the-Big House, transported by
several little Negroes, in a trot, would
have been the best that he could ex-
: pect.
And the same truth obtains in every
department of life: In the reading

where disease is prevented andd cured.

Car Washing

We have every right to believe we have
the best car washing and car lubricating
business to be found in this part of the
country. We know how to wash and grease
an automobile, and we do it.
We DO NOT wash your car in the sun.
The makers of lacquer will tell you that
washing a car in the sun is the worst thing
that can be done.
We have installed a new hydraulic car
washing machine that is the last thing in
its line. We wash the chassis as well as the
car.

SUNDAY
Naturally we don’t like to see any
thing good fall into disuse; at least
I feel that way. And what can be
more delightful than a day of peace
ful rest? Doubters may say that the
seventh day was not set apart by the
Creator, but no one can deny the wis
dom of the plan, whoever is respon
sible for it. Conservation of our forces

healthful, happy life.
I arrived in the city of New York
on Saturday-Evening, a few years ago.
I had never been there before. I was
mighty glad when a traffic policeman
piloted me across the street in safety;
never before had I been surrounded
by such a jam!
I concluded that my visit to the
great city would be anything but a
vacation and postgraduate study. I
would put in my time dodging for my
very life! And I never liked that.
The next morning was Sunday. I
ventured forth, armed with my cam
era; the folks back home must get an
idea of where I had been—they must
see pictures of the vast throngs that
brush elbows in an unending stream
of humanity.
I went to “The Little Church Around
the Corner”; O, the hush—the quiet!
After an hour, I went to Broadway;
I took a snapshot of the “Flatiron
building”; just one man was crossing
the street in front of the camera! It
was as calm as a country village! Lat-
yrr, I saw the great arteries—the street
railways crowded—people were going
to the parks. It was Sunday. That
fact had never been so emphasized to
me. I enjoyed it.
Why, back in my home town of six
thousand, Sundays are the best mon
ey-making days of the weeks! Drug
stores, garages, fruit shops, restau
rants—all busy—wide open and noisy.
How can my home town prosper and
grow, unless she works seven days a
week? And almost day and night? Yet
New York has made a fair sized town,
hasn’t it? Just one day of rest—why
not ? Term it God’s, way, or what you
will^it is right. ' <; —
The Clinton Building and Loan as
sociation has just issued an attrac
tive and helpful booklet entitled “How
Best To Use Building and Loan.” It
has been generally distributed, and has
met with favorable comments by
those who have received one.
It is written in a clear and under
standable manner and presents in sim
ple explanation the details of building
and loan operation and the many uses
to which building and loan can be put.
Many have the erroneous idea that
building and loan stock is useful only
in the building of a home. The book
let, however, explains dozens of ap
propriate and serviceable uses to
which building and loan stock can be
put and the booklet is well worth read
ing and following.. , .
