LETTERS FROM OUR READERS
One Hundred Per Cent Americanism.
What constitutes 100 per cent Amer
icanism? This is indeed a momen-1
tons question in the minds of thinking
people. In these days of unrest the
individual is constantly reminded of his
patriotic duties, civic responsibilities
and his debt to the great underlying
principles of true democracy; his duty
is to adhere to the basic theory of a
government by the people and for the
people, where all men receive equality
under the regime of justice the impar
tial judge.
The individual ie allowed the pur
suit of happiness according to his
own ideas providing these ideas do
not conflict with the existing laws.
Each person has the unquestioned
privilege of worshiping (lod accord
ing to the dictates of his own heart.
Religion and law are not consoldated
within the state.
Within the confines of this glorious
nation, the great underlying principle
is freedom. Opportunity stalks upon
every highway and fortune awaits the
effort of the worthy and the sincere.
It is to be lamented that some high
government officials have broken the
trust reposed in them and let us sin
cerely hope there will not be a repeti
tion of these offenses in the future.
Justice has been meted out in no un
certain terms and the shaken confi
dence of the people has largely been
restored. The president, together with
his chosen assistants, has looked the
issue squarely in the face and dealt
with thp situation to the satisfaction of
all.
One hundred per cent Americanism
means confidence in the institutions
of our government, faith in the wis
dom of our law makers and sincerity
in the observance of all laws which
have been inaugurated. No individual
or group is, entirely responsible for
the fulfillment of the law and Justice
should be administered through reg
ulation channels in accordance with
the severity of the offense. Civic au
thorities and servants of the law strive
at all times to be impartial and fair
and endeavor to interpret the law in
an efficient manner. Should we not
as 100 per cent American citizens co
operate with them in a worthy cause?

Let us be sincere in our appreciation
of thoee who strive to live and let
live; be content to dwell beneath the
protection of the stars and stripes in
the land of the free and the home of
the brave. Let us be proud to observe
the laws and strive to assist our fellow
men in living happy, clean, progressive
lives in the greatest country of all—
America!

Are you self-conscious
about the impression
you make on people?
PERSONAL appearance has a lot
to do with the way you feel.
Clothes count, of course. But still
there is one thing so many people
overlook—something that at once
brands them as either fastidious or
careless—the teeth.
Notice today how you, yourself,
watch another person’s teeth when
he or she is talking. If the teeth are
not well kept they at once become a
liability.
LiUeritu Teeth Paste cleans teeth a note
way 4.1 last enr chemists have discoverodsa
polishing ingredient that really cleans with
out scratching the enamel—a difficult problem
finally solved.

Paste is only 25 cents; at your drug

3{3 IT PAID HIM TO ADVERTISE X
I - J
i One of the most persistent advertisers in the history |
Si of success was Robinson Crusoe. He knew what he wanted jjf
Si —and he put up an advertisement for one. He flung a J
shirt on a pole, at the top of his island, that,; in the lan- |
X. guage of the sea, was plain to every sea-faring man* |
£ The circulation was small—there was no other medium X
•{• but Crusoe kept at it, despite the fact that he got no in- A
? quiries for a long time. He changed his copy—as one A
garment after another was frayed out—and in the end got A
•j* what he wanted. X
3j3 Suppose Crusoe had taken down that signal after a ?
3£ time and declared—“Advertising doesn’t pay,” where would Sf
3*3 he and his story be now? %
*:* Put up your signal and keep it there. Crusoe adver- A
j* tised under very discouraging circumstances. You’ve got %
| a sure thing—it is only necessary to have the patience, £
| persistence, and pluck of Robinson Crusoe—and the good •£

Advertising Talk I
A hen is not supposed to have If
Much common sense or tact, M
Yet every time she lays an egg iB;
She cackles forth the fact. iS
A rooster hasn’t got a lot §§
Of intellect to show, gif
But none the less most roosters have
Enough good sense to crow. |g
The mule, the most despised of beasts, jf;
Has a persistent way Bj
Of letting folks know he’s around S
■ By his insistent bray. fj
The busy little bees they buzz, 'M
Bulls bellow and cows moo, fi
£g The watch dogs bark, the ganders quack,
iJjj The doves and pigeons coo. B
The peacock spreads his tail and squacks, fj|
. Pigs squeal and robins sing ||
Sis And even serpents know enough Igf
§1 To hiss before they sting. m
3 But man, the greatest masterpiece Jjl
m That nature could devise, , M;
S Will often stop and hesitate n
jjj Before he’ll advertise. H
a Merchants who are wise fg
