Results Count By GEORGE S BENSON President of Harding College Searcy. Arkansas iLOST MOTION is an enemy of Sprosperity, serious as fire. It de stroys property and wastes ener gy. Thi3 is just as true in a human organization as in a me chanical assembly. Nobody is richer for employing a crew that .keeps busy all day and accom Iplishes nothing. On a farm, for iexample, work is necessary; Sweat and callouses are inciden tals. It’s the crop that brings in the money and pays the men. . ft Prosperity results from work but not from all work. Prosperity results from productive work. People who keep busy but don’t Increase the yield might as well •be resting. The man who figures out a way to increase yield with out extra labor is the best man on the job. He works with his brain; knows enough to stop lost motion, to take precautions against fire, and the like. "Policy for * ENGLAND has a Prosperity magazine called The pt- -= Economist. It is Brit ain’s leading financial publication. It is read and respected by busi ness men and financiers general fly. Recently it has been running ia series of articles entitled “A 'Policy for Wealth.” The articles •have shown why England is poor; ithat is, why the English people must put up with comparatively low living standards. j^A large and respected group of Americans often say “Mother England.” The British are a i proud and industrious people and 'the Americans respect them. The British well understand.. Jiow. to appreciate life’s good things. They deserve to live as well as anybody but they don’t. What’s the reason? Well, here’s wha$ one writer for The Economistj looking back at 1943, has to say; To Double “INDUSTRIAL effi Production ciency, as measured by production pei head, was roughly similar in Great Britain and Germany whila in the United States it was more than twice as great as in th« other two countries.” The state ment is that of Dr. Leon Rostas, based on serious study of authen tic records. Now there is a move ment on foot in England tc double her productive output pei man by 1972. *■ No longer ago than 1943, when America and England both hac full employment, our America! workers were twice as well off They were producing enough tc live twice as well as the British About that time Britain was in vesting only 3% of her income ii equipment for additional produo tion. It was like a woodman say ing, “Why buy a file? A dul saw pulls easier.” • <*•> — The British point to Americi' and say, “Look! They work less earn more and live better thai we, all because they encourage more investment in tools to pro duce more goods per man.” It’e the truth but it may not be true long. Our high taxes discourage investment. Unless we adjust te> day’s tax laws, we will be poor watohing the British produce anc Brower io 1972, r' r “My Lord!

One day when mother and father were hunting for worms, the three children climbed on a limb and were going to try to fly. Now there was one little blue jay who thought he knew everything, he stood up straight and quickly jumped from the limb. Little brother was hurt badly. Soon mother and father bluejay came home. They found their son at the bottom of the old maple tree. They picked him up quickly and flew up to their nest. And then “The Three Little Bluejays” never tried to fly without their parents’ permission.

Lacked Vitamins Although everyone knows that vitamins and minerals are essential to health, until 1941 about 40 per cent of all Americans ate a diet which failed to provide all of these nutrients they needed. What Ameri- ; can dietaries lacked chiefly were some of the B-vitamins and the food mineral iron, and these nutrients have been added under the wartime, enrichment program. Moisture Needed Fertilizers are of no value to the plant unless the soil contains ample moisture and air. Fertilizers should not be applied to dry soil; so, dur ing periods of drouth, artificial watering should be practiced. On soils known to be highly acid or de ficient in calcium this condition can be corrected by applying agri cultural ground limestone or hy drated lime at a rate of 50 to 70 pounds per 1,000 square feet. The rate of application of lime should , be based on soil tests, and lime should be applied only if analysis shows it is necessary. j Our motto “Our Customers Al I ways in the Right.” Mr. Grace, the Prop, of the Grace Grocery at 1314 North 27th St., wishes to announce to his customers, friends and neighbors that in connection with his fine stock of groceries, meats, and full line of green veg etables, ice cold watermelon and all kinds of fruits, that he has now an off sale beer license which put thim in a position to take care of his customers wants in full, wheth er it be milk, pop and all kinds of mixing waters.
