Shelbyville has plotted off garden spots and ''hoboes” who are looking for a buckdpor bite there are hustled over to the town lot and permitted to earn their breakfast, dinner or supper by a little hoe and spade effort. Needless to say, most of them are detouring that town. Every where you go the merchaut who advertises, does the business. Watch it and check it any way you wish ami you will find that's true, isn't it worth a few hundred dollars a year to double your volumne? That's just what you can do with a little printers ink. Now what do you think? Ex-gov ernor l ouden, of Illinois, an old stand patter, is out for co-operative bargaining for farmers and says that unless something is done to equalize the earnings of those who produce, this country cannot prosper. That's what we have pointed out for several year Tile trouble is that emigres won't see it or don't want to. This is Boys Week and the program here includes events in their honor and for their good. The ser- .

vin's iii the various churches yester- ' day were appropriate and interesting ■ and during the week you will have several opportunities to boost along the bojs. And don't think they won’t remember the things said to them . this week and remember they will , soon be men. * ■ ,*> ’ One glance at any of the photos of I ('resident Coolidgc leads any fair--9 minded person to believe there is ;• lot of buntkutn in the newspaper pub lit*itv that the chief executive is ha\ ing hi old clothes cleaned and pressed and refusing to buy any thing new. He looks very imaculatc in his pictures and seems to have a sail of clothes for every occasion and plenty of silk hats.

The competition, both iu the state contest and contests leading up to the state contest, was strong. 83 it should have been. There can be no question as to the value of such

contests. They promote the study of the Constitution, with which it is J highly important that the young people should early become familiar. ■ The real tiling to lie won is not the prize offered, but the knowledge that • is acquired by the participants in the contest.

Prefits Fellow Service • The Standard Oil Company (Indiana ha- hern called a “practical idealist.” because of its sane appreciation of the relation between srmcQ and profits. It realizes that profit is the only to attract capital, which in turn makes the economical production of merchandise possible. It is because the Company, by successful management, far-sighted policies and insisting that service is the surest guide to profit, has been able to earn a satisfactory return for its stockholders, that money has been available always, when further expansion of the business has been necessary'. This Company realizes that profit- always follow intelligent service. Without a genuine service, honestly rendered, there can be no sustained profit. It is futile, therefore, to consider profits at all first considering the ervice which produces them. What the Standard Oil Company > Indiana) does to create an essential service to 30 million people in 10 Middle Western States mu-t oe considered necessarily before the reasonableness ol “what it earns” can be estimated. The ramifications of service as referred to aoove are legion. Delivering a good product is only one phase, and while of major importance, it is not primary' or even basic, . For service is efficient only in so far a- it >- whole-souled and enthusiastic. The Management of the Standard CM. Company (Indiana) lays its cornerstone of service on the foundation of taking a sincere and keen - terest in the welfare of the 27,000 men and wo. who make up its organization.
