THE WATER OF LIFE
And the Spirit and the bride say,
Come. And let him that heareth say,
Come. And let him that is at hirst
come. And whosoever will, let him
take the water of life freely.
Revelation 22:17.
Look out for frost any time now.
The flower of American manhood
is self-rising.
:o:
As the leading abomination we
nominate a summer cold.
:o:-
Bear in mind the next Bargain
Wednesday, September 23.

Insanity is a very present help in
time of conviction to the murderer.
:o:
The honeymoon is over when
washing dishes is no longer ro
mantic. o :
One thing that can be said in fa
vor of the day-dreamer is that he
doesn't snore.
:o:
"Darkness and tempest make a
twofold night." Heat and mosquitoes
make it fourfold.
:o:-
We're in favor of re-establishing
the whipping post for adult females
who bob their, hair.
:o:-
It's a queer game. A labor official
calls a 6trike on a mine operator and
the consumer is out.
:o:-
Almost everything has been in
vented now except a simple device to
trim the bob at home.
Radicalism is that unkind opinion
you have of another man's snoring
when you can't sleep.
:o:-
The headline reader Eizes up the
situation in Spain by calling it a
Riff in someone's loot.
-:o:-
It's fair enough. The tourists in
little cars get shaken up and those
in big cars get shaken down.
It's all right to vote your convic
tions, but the men who vote their
prejudices win all the elections.
:o:
It is noticeable that the republi
cans, not the democrats, are making
the more definite plans for 1 J 2 8 .
:o:
Another argument in favor of dead
bandits is that they are of no inter
est whatever to criminal lawyers.
Summer's nice all right, but in
winter you can keep your hands in
your pockets so you won't lose your
money.
:o:
"Borah Leans Toward Mitchell"
headline. And so does more than
one-half the people of the United
States.
:o:-
Miss Omaha is counted among the
prettiest girls at Atlantic City. Hur
rah for Omaha and her beautiful
daughter.
:o:
Youth has its advantages. So has
age. The older you are the more
easily you remember when the
weather was worse.
:o:
One enjoyable feature or an auto
race Is thinking how easy it would
be to dodge when all the speeders
are going the same way.
:o:
Table food prices continue their
upward trend, but fortunately gaso
line and automobiles and such ne
cessities manifest a tendency to drop.
:o:
The man who fights against state
rights is not loyal to the national or
the state governments. He is a true
supporter of centralized government
and a traitor to the country.
:o:
A Stanford university professor
announces that meat eaters are pos
sessed of the sturdiest physi jue. The
vegetarians may retort tffat their
souls are the purest, anyhow.
:o:
Colonel Coolidge told an interview
er several days ago, Cal, as a boy,
never disobeyed him. We have been
wondering all the time what defect
the president suffered when he was
a kid.
- :o:
Statistics show that IS, 000,000
boxes of rouge were used in the
United States last year. Since there
must be four times that many wom
en, it would seem that a lot of them
have been obliged to use common
house paint.

Keep on chasing women and one
will catch you.
:o:-
The family skeleton looks better
in a closet than in a bathing suit.
-:o:
Every summer resort with a good
place to swim has a large floating

The way to marry off two daugh

An alligator will grow 12 feet in
15 years while a centipede will grow
a hundred in a week.

The young St. Louisians w ho spent
one or two hot nights in a balloon
knew what they were up to.
:o:
Some of us get into trouble be
cause we don't think and get into
trouble because we do think.
:o:
The Chinese used umbrellas 3,000
years ago, so people have been bor
rowing things for 3,000 years.
:o:
Being in a roadside tent wtih pri
vacy is better than a swell summer
cottage and all of your relatives.
:o:
A snake bit an American tourist
In Cuba. It could have been worse.
Suppose it had bit him in America.
:o:
An intersection of streets is a
place where you have the poor satis
faction of knowing that a ccp saw it
hit you.
:o:
A South Dakota woman has died
of appendicitis at 104, which shows
what medical science amounts to in
a pinch.
:o:
The National Geographical society
sees the need of more weather re
ports. But what we really need is
lss weather.
:o:
Some funny things happen. A
Chicago woman caught three robbers.
And she's 40, and hasn't caught a
husband yet.
:o:
Wonder why his parents didn't
wait a little longer and name Ar
thur Garfield Hays after two or three
more presidents.
:o:
If a woman wears a wedding ring,
the chances are she Is married. If a
man carries an umbrella the chances
are he is married.
:o:
Two new poisons have been dis
covered in samples of moonshine liq
uor. The old fashioned booze begins
to seem like a panacea in compari
son. :o:-
There doesn't seem to be any doubt
about being able to collect from Eu
rope, if we only lend her enough
money to keep a little out for her
self. :o:-
Nobody over here envied President
Hindenburg his Job until all the
wine growers of Germany began
sending him samples of their vint
ages. :o:
"The working man is a collector
of God," declares the ex-kaiser.
Times have changed since William
figured as the Almighty's sole col
laborator. :o:
If you don't think Mitchell knov s
as much about air aviation, put him
in a position to show himself proper
ly. He may be a political schemer
but we hope not.
:o:-
Detroit has an ordinance making
it a misdemeanor to sound your au'.o
horn when your car is not in motion.
Congestion at busy corners is thus
robbed of one of its chief horrors.
:o:
One good thing about so many peo
ple going to Florida to live is that
if it keeps on, after awhile we shall
all have relatives down there whom
we can visit during the cool snaps.
-:o:
Mexican women are said to be
arming in their determination to
win the right to bob their hair. Why
don't they bob it and let the country
put it back if it can, like our own
women did?
:o:-.
For the first time in five years.
Mexico is issuing paper currency
We are assured that it is not being
modeled on any German varieties,
and hence will not result In a short
age of print paper.
The FIREPROOF Sheathing
Insist that your new

Gyp-Lap is nailed di

CLOIDT LUMBER &
COAL CO.
ERA OF CHURCH BUILDING
One of the most impressive features
of this nation's ?5, 000,000, 000 build
ing program for 1925 is the item of
$400,000,000 for new church build
ings and equipment. The estimate
is made by C. Stanley Taylor, one of
the editors of the Architectural For
um, and is based on reports from 1,-
562 architects.
This is by far the most extensive
church building program ever car
ried forward in the United States.
That we are entering upon an era of
church construction that will result
in the planting of new structures
dedicated to worship and social ser
vice all over the country is indicated
by the fact that the expenditures for
1925 will run twice as high as those
for 1924, whereas the latter year
showed almost as great an increase
over 1925.
Various religious authorities have
asserted recently that a cathedral
building age has come to America.
They point to the great cathedral of
St. John the Divine, now in the pro
cess of construction in New York
City; to St. Patrick's also in New
York; to the magnificent cathedral
in St. Louis, and to others that are
being planned.
So great has been the emphasis in
the last quarter century upon prac
tical values that beauty of outline
and luxury of interior have been
given insufficient consideration. Now
classic designs and artistic detail are
beginning to rank equally with util
ity. However, it should be said that
architects lately. However, it should
be said that architects lately have
attained remarkable skill in present
ing the most pleasing effects with
out sacrificing usefulness. No fac
tor in church construction can per
form a greater service to the cause
of religion than beauty that ex
presses devotion.
Congregations are giving as they
never gave before for new houses of
worship. Where $10,000 to $50,000
was the goal a few years ago, now
the building programs call for struc
tures costing from $50,000 to $1,
000,000 each, with $100,000 and
$150,000 buildings exceedingly com
mon. Notwithstanding ' crime and law
lessness which always accompany a
changing social, and economic order
and rapid material development, the
religious life of the American people
is growing deeper and richer all the
time.
:o:
INCOME TAXES
The income tax publicity figures
seem to indicate there is something
sadly wrong with our system of tax
ation. Some men admittedly worth mil
lions pay comparatively small sums
little more than others on a small
salary. This doesn't mean that their
returns are dishonest or that they are
evading tares illegally.
They are apparently investing in
such large amounts of tax free se
curities that their income tax shrinks
almost to nothing.
The flood of tax exempt securities
makes a revision of the tax laws
necessary if every man is to pay a
Just tax.
:o;
Colonel Mitchell- is still in the
limelight. And wil be fore some
time to come, as long as he is in the
air service.

Ibene us the news!
SHEARING THE LAMES
One billion dollars is the price
paid for gullibility in the United
States this year, according to a re
port compiled by the New York Bet
ter Business Bureau. The sellers of
fradulent stock and operators of oth
er get-rich-quick schemes are still
waxing fat on the credulity of the
thousands of people who stand ready
to risk their hard-earned savings on
the fickle wheel of speculation. The
bureau's report shows that in spite
of the enactment of blue-sky laws
and numerous other efforts to safe
guard the public from the designs of
the sharpers, the losses for the year
1925 are approximately "normal."
Protective legislation can go only
a short way toward saving people
from their own follies. Financial
tricksters are notoriously adept at
evading the law and escaping its
toils. Many people who appear to
be thoroughly inteligent in ordinary
matters and who are endowed with
their full share of human skepticism
readily throw all reason to the winds
when the prospect of easy money
looms on the horizon. It is futile to
tell them that if a stranger or pass
ing acquaintances really has a "sure
re proposition" he will not be so
anxious to share the opportunity by
letting them in on the ground floor.
The persistent thirst to get some
thing for nothing is the confidence
man's greatest asset.
It would be a mistake to think
that the game of finance is wholly
or even largely dishonest. Fabulous
fortunes are made every now and
then through perfectly legitimate
transactions. But the men who make
them are men who know their
ground, who realize where the pit
falls lie and who can tell a sharper
when they see one. This get-rich-quick
business is no place for ama
teurs. :o:
