The \ Cheap Money Needed Wit Ellison, Sc Money ib by far the most necessary, the ni n t powerful and the most useful agency in the affairs of human life. Its study is fascinating, its pursuit alluring and its possession the most agreeable of all earthly substances. It stands first in war, f: 3t in peace and first in the hearts of the people. Money has measured the prosperity, directed the progress and eon-rl <1,^ linnnlnnae sa f ? Iwa li IUUUU lu ??u w IIIV till u I inv human race since civilization blossomed in the valley of the Nile. The ebb and flow of the world's currency moves ihe center of population; its current has swept civilization across continents and it has built empires In waste places. Men spend their lives striving for it; nations collect it by force of arms; thieves steal it; beggars plead for it; death distributes it and Lancaster, and ecpecially the "Rich Lancaster District" must have it to develop our magnificent resources. Cheap money is the fount that makes the brook of industry flow. Under its nurturing influences the germs of civilization flourish and bloom like the tree of life and its blessings fall upon the land like the dew of prosperity. Withdraw it from ] civilization and industry withers, civ- j ilization blights, prosperity festers and poverty stalks over the land. Therefore it is of some importance that we all understand what is meant by development and what constitutes the development and what constitutes the development dollar. There are two sources of development, namely: wealth and popula- ' tion. The two are inseparable; peo- ! .

It is incomprehensible how men with dollars seeking legitimate investments can leave Lancaster, when they are surrounded by such a magnificent array of splendid opportunities and search the wilderness and waste places for investments when they might remain at home, helping to develop our many and varied resou-res. and become real captains of industry. Many of our dollars lured by the siren voice of speculation and "Get Rich Quick" schemes have left Lancaster and formed unholy alliances without outside capital and now for a time must undergo the mental anguish of daily witnessing splundid opportunities for investments go by in their home city. There is no more pitiful sound known in "City Building" that that of a Lancaster dollar chained to an outside "wild cat" proposition sadly singing "Home, Home Sweet Home." Remember that in order to make a town, city or community prosperous, we must spend our money with the home merchants; we must deposU our money with the home banker and we must invest our money in home j property. From today on, let our motto be, "Keep Lancaster Alonev in Lancaster." Faint t'p Movement Observed. Judging by tlie facial appearance of many women nowadays the "clean rp and paint up" movement is being v idely observed, particularly thej last named feature of the occasion.
