“CAL” PRACTICES ECONOMY
The latest Coolidge story character
istic of the president’s economy in
government as well as words, as told
by one of his friends over the radio, is:
President Coolidge attended church
some time since unaccompanied by
Mrs. Coolidge. Upon his return to the
White House, Mrs. Coolidge asked him
whether the sermon was good. To
which he replied:
“Yes.”
“What was it about?”
“Sin.”
“What did the preacher say about
it?”
a
“He was against it.”
THE FARMER AS PURCHASER
It has long been known that the
farmer feeds the wt»rld. That state
ment, however, usually causes one to
have a mental vision of a man who
holds a plow, wields a* hoe or drives a
reaper. That is only a partial repre
sentation of the truth. The farmer
feeds ,the world not only by what he
produces, but also by what he buys,
i who
thus adding prosperity to those
are dependent upon mercantile insti
tutions.
The purchasing power 6f the farmer
varies in different sections and in ac
cordance with crop conditions, but In
the aggregate it is much greater than
many realize. This is set forth in the
following paragraphs from an article
b> John H. Perry in the American
Review of Reviews:
days. If there be ~*h old soldier
there, it is he who may give such life
to history as you never knew before
aa he fights again the old battles and
faces anew the periliPtyat are past.
If there be in the company an old man
who has remained rooted to the soil
upon .which old age has overtaken
him, he can give yon such an insight
into local history and the develop
ment of institutions of which his life
has been a part as you could, not find
upon the dry pages of written re
cords. . , ’
It is well for us to pause sometimes
and do our feeble best to twine h
wreath about the brow of the aged.
They have garnered for us the les
sons of experience which bequeath a
wealth of wisdom to Others. They
have founded and fostered institutions
which have laid a basis for the happi
ness and prosperity of those who suc
ceed them. They have made it possi
ble for the light of today to be made
up of the rays of yesterday. They are
living proof of how much we owe to;
the hast. > f
In reality : > the old mon are not laid
aside from the channels of usefulness.
They live in the works which follow
them even in their latter days. The
sun is brightest at midday, but even
after it sinks below the horizon th»
light it leaves guides many a traveler
to his home. The tree falls in the
forest and in the Jong procession cf
the years is converted into coal so
that our fires may burn brighter to
day. In such ways the old men make
it possible for the light of other days
to shine upon us and even in the after
noon of their lives they bring to us
mellow beams which should deepen
the respect in which they deserve to
be held.

Enthusiasm is all right, but how can
a fellow have any when the car he
buys immediately drops in price.

72 per cent of all automobiles are

Of course the kids need to be car

Incidentally, they bur a few other Urjfer the paat year
things besides automobiles. '
“Silk stockings, for instance; and
they wear them rolled, the same as
on State street or Broadway. It sur
prised and puzzled the correspondents
of some of the big city newspapers
who ‘covered’ the Scopes trial al Day-
ton to discover that country ^rls bob
bed their hair and were otherwise in
distinguishable, externally, from their
city cousins; that rural youth had the
same penchant for Oxford ‘bags’ as
any urban ‘cake-eatejp.’ Fundamental
ism and vanity cases had, somehow,
seemed incompatible! ^ ^ .
“Big Business knows that the coun
try, not the cities, is the great mar
ket; Thirteen billion dollars is a lot
of money. It is more than half what
the Great War cost us, including our
loans to the Allies. ? But that is what
the farmers of the United States
spend every year for things which
have nothing to do with the cost of
raising their crops, according to Wil-’
liam H.,Woodfin, who qualifies as a
Big Business man by being president
of the American Car and Foundry
company. That ia about $2,090 a year
for each of the six and one-half miL
lion farm families.” '

THE OLD MEN
One -who goes along the streets
of Clinton, or any other town, may
observe the evidence of age among
its inhabitants. We look upon them
as and apply to them the term of old
men. They have reached that stage
in life at which they join in the ex
perience of those to whom every day
is Sunday, as the old saying goes.
They walk no longer in the ways of
the more strenuous duties of life and
becoiqe well known figures at typse
places where men gather to spend
their leisure time. Those who look
upon such men* with an appreciative
eye may find much food for thought
and may have kindled within them the
fires of respect and honor which we

of the attention which the exacting
tasks of the present demand. -.
