Ps' llHMT7?7-'4li KDITOItlAL Did you know that the Lincoln County Farm Hureaii has boon al lowed to use (ho office rooms on the thin! floor or tin- Federal Building? Have you been up and made tho ao- quiliniilliut' ui in" ouiiiii; iif,""1" i Have you told him that you nro go ing to stand back of him In his work ; In Llnocln County and help him to j do something for agriculture hero? It Ik not too late for men are doing ! this very thing every day. I Yesterday morning u lady called our office and asked us If wo know whoro sho could get a woman to como to hor houso anil holp her for a day or two. Wo told hor wo did not. Wo have been led to bollove that there aro a lot of people who cannot buy what they want and need because they do not havo any Income. Then thoy .should- want a job. If thoy want work they should let It ho known. Wo havo tried to do our sharo In holp fng" thorn out by offering to run a no tlco of the Job wanted freo for two Issues. Wo still continue tho offer and know that thero aro nil kinds of work to be done If tho worker can be found. ;:o:; Thoro are some people In North l'lattc who do not llko athletics In the schools. They always argue that thoro arc other forms of school work which would do more good and then ond up by mentioning debating. Wo would naturally expect these people to bo at tho Joint dobato to morrow night. Hut thoy won't bo thero. Thoy aro vapid as their argu ments. Yot lf they would go thoy would find that dobato ly ono of tho most exciting - .id thrilling of all Inter-school activities. Ono reason why there are-no many basket ball games and so fow debates Is that the people here patronize tho games and up to date have not patronized tho debates. ::o:: Our attention was called to the tax figures In our nows columns In con nection with ft charge that tho County officials wore all grafters. Tho man who Bald that wiw profoundly Ignor ant of tho facts. The wliols amount spent In tho County is less than nlno per cent of the total tax. If uxtonslvo grafting were possible on this amount what about the othor 01 Ivor cent of tho tnxes? And yet thoro has never been a question of tho expenditure of these othor funds. Wo have elected honest men to tho County offices and thoy aro handling tho vory nnmcu amount oi money ni xuotr disposal In a business llko jnannor. Tho Commissioners, who really spend the County money, aro in session every Monday and the meetings are open to anyone It lsnot vory becoming for n man or woman to shoot off about such mattors. until ho or sho has Investigated. Then if ho or she feels that thoro Is a just cuuho for complaint tho wholo people will ho ready to hear. MAi7mA7nriiin:NSi:s.
