The Ilerltld takes pride in the fact
that it is a member of the Alliance
Community Club.
There was a time when communi
ties debated the advantage of pos
sessing a commercial organisation.
That time has gone, never to return.
In this modern era no one argues as
to the advisability of such an organ
isation, any more than be wonders
whether it is advantageous Uiat a
municipality shall have electric
lights and sewerage.
Inasmuch, then, as Alliance must
have a commercial organization, and,
no doubt, will always have one, The
ueraia is giaa mat we have one
worth while.
And we have.
ine organization as at present
cuuBiuuieu is an enecuve one
more so, perhaps, than any of Its
predecessors; equally so, at any rate.
The directors are working and
when we say working we mean
working every day in the week to
aid tbo salaried secretary iu his
projects and efforts.
There are nine of these directors.
The board is made up of nine of the
snrewdest business Individuals in
i in ,.
Aiuance. iney come pretty near
knowing whether headquarters of
the organization is being conducted
aa Intelligently and indefatigably as
li snouia be.
If The Herald's observation la cor
rect, the salaried secretary is earn
ing Ms money. He Is a klud of sec
retary rather new to Alliance new
aa a matter of fact, to most towns.
He seems to The Herald te be iin
bued with the rather foolish Idea
that he is being paid a salary to ad
vertise Alliance, and not himself.
You rarely see his name In either of
the two newspapers of Alliance
mainly for the reason that one of the
'first things he did after reaoblng
here was to ask the editor of each
of the newspapers to mention the
Community Club as often aa seemed
necessary, but to leave his name as
secretary out of the news columns.
As a result, there are people lu Alli
ance who do not know the secre
tary's name.
But If you will ask any of the dl
rectors, they will tell you, aa they
have told The Herald, that the sec
retary whose name. Incidentally, Is
Rufus Jones is doing what he
being paid to do. via: working. He
la "taking his out" In read work In
stead of In grand-Btand plays. When
he talks at all. It la about Alliance
not about himself. This la some
thng new to Alliance, but ae far as
The Herald Is concerned we liko the
style, and from what we can hear the
town generally llkea it.
A half dozen big things are on
tap. and within the next few weeks
there are liable to be some Interest
ing announcements from th culb's
headquarters.
But what we started out t ay,
we now repeat again. The H-ald la
plad to be a member of the organisa
tion an active member, with , Its
due paid In advance. If we were
not a n. ember, we would be. U our
own opinion, a "piker," taking ad
vantage of the benefits of this or
ganisation while refusing to aid in
its up port, or would "sniper" be a
better wordT .

IMPROVEMENT MUST NOT LAQ
Every un-to-data buninnu Arm
adopted aa Its motto: "Unless we
grow, we ko behind." an hi.u.
which does not have an ironclad
monopoly realises that unless there
is constant striving after Improve
ment, oven that which the particular
uusinees naa can not be retained.
Yet strange as it may seem many of
our prominent business leaders have
adopted just the opposite point of
view for our nation.
There is a widespread propaganda
to the effect that our ways of doing
things political and
are good enough. There should be
no cnange, no amendments to our
Constitution, no new functions for
our government other than those de
cided on by our forefathers. Away
with those who advocate improve
ment. Our nation, however, la In Just the
position business is. It must, aa a
whole, be constantly atrlving after
Improvement or it will go behind.
What waa sufficient tor a nattou of
5.000.000 people in 1800. or 30.000.
000 In 1S60 may be wocfulyl insuffi
cient for a nation of over 100,000,
000 people In 1919. Our forefathers
were very rsdlcal In striving after
Improvement In their day. It Is
their spirit aud not their temporary
plans that we need for national vigor
and success.

"PRODUCTION DEPENDS O N
CONSTRUCTION."
Cutting down production, produc
ing less food, less clothing, less fuel,
never has and never will reduce
prices. Increase production is the
answer to "the question of how we
can reduce living costs.
We must have production if we
are to have lower living costs. In
modern industry production Is stim
ulated by construction. Building Is
a basic industry It you build a
home you make business for more
than a hundred correlated and con
tributing Industries. Each building
erected sends Its wave of demand
through the Industrial organization.

presidents and back, and, by way of
pay envelopes, to the ditch digger
again.
An immediate resumption of
building activities will do more than
any one thing to stimulate general
Vuslness and accelerate the transi
tion of industry from war demobili
sation to the peace normal ,
Construction stimulates produc
tion it creates the demand and
production must increase until it
reaches the volume production
necessary to decrease unit costs be

Most Beautiful Big-Car Offering of tHe Season,
and the Price is Only $1795
TIIE new Chandler touring model is here. We have waited for it. Old Chandler
owners have waited for it. It's here now and we are all proud and happy.
The Chandler of the past has had splendid bodies, but the new Chandler touring car
even surpasses its immediate fore-runner in beauty of line, in bigness, in comfort of
its cushioning, in the nicety of its custom-like workmanship and in its lustrous finish.
The new Chandler Touring is a big car. Its high hood and radiator, its broad cowl,
Its wide and deep doors give it distinctive appearance.
And it RIDES, it rides like a dream
Nothing has been cut out to permit the delivery of this
fine big touring car at the Chandler price. Indeed, many
little detaUs of nicety are added. The back curtain window
is beveled plate glass. The clear-vision aide curtains fit
snugly and open with the doors. There are detachable rear
quarter-bow curtains. There are outside door handles.
Features which have been standard Chandler qualities In
the past are continued. The cushions are upholstered in
genuine hand-buffed plaited leather. The front compart
. ment floor boards are covered with heavy (ray linoleum,
aluminum-bound. The two comfortable auxiliary chain
fold away, entirely concealed, when ot In use.
Carrying tKis Handsono Body
Is tHe Famous Chandler Chassis
You will choose the new Chandler touring for its bigness
and Its comfort and its handsome dignity. But you will
choose it, too, for Its mechanical excellence. Fifty thou
sand Chancier ovners know, better than we can tell you,
what a good car the Chandler is. The famous Chandler
motor and the sturdy excellence of the whole chassis make
the Chaiidlcr notable among fine cars.

mechanical features; solid cast aluminum motor base
extending from frame to frame, silent chain drive for the
auxiliary motor ahafts, annular ball bearings, Bosch
Magneto ignition and many other features cf design and
equipment characteristic of th3 highcittiaaa tuoior car
