Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. The auto plants are picking up and getting ready for spring business. a sure sign of better times ' ahead. It’s just a little more than a month until the baseball season opens—and then it can't be long I 'till summer. — House building can do much to i start a real revival of business, i Homes are the backbone of tire community. Vindictiveness, hatred and malice do not get an individual anywhere and any one will break communities. California will want to destroy all those flood pictures like the ' mayor of Albany did in removing the high water mark in his town. Ain't nature grand. We don't know that it's necessary to have a special day to honor mothers-in-law. Regardless of the in-law relation, a mother is a mother and we honor them all on Mother's day. A band of Puritans in New Hampshire has voted that a woman found guilty of witchcraft 282 years ago should not have been sentenced to jail. Little good that reversal of the verdict does for the person who died in jail. President Roosevelt has summoned the directors of the TVA to the White House with instructions that they bring facts and not opinions in the controversary dver government operation of the power industry. More than likely the trouble will be ironed eot and the President will present the real facts to the country. A building reminding the country of the principle of religious freedom in America will be erected at the New York World's fair. A keystone of liberty is freedom of worship and the right of each individual to entertain and practice religious beliefs according to the dictates of his conscience. The building should have a prominent place on the fair grounds and be the symbol of America s greatness. ■MS — —.»fiir ■ ■■ IT me Governor Davey is having his troubles in Ohio, but the executive seems able to give blow for blow. Somewhere along the line feathers were rubbed and the political groups seem to be divided for and against the governor. Davey had real opposition in the last election, but won in the landslide and this term seems to be devoted to squaring up matters with the boys. Most people believe Davey to be honest and it is in refuting charges of graft that he is making his drive against his enemies. The Jay county Women's Hospital in Portland has been turned over to the county for the purpose of remodeling and enlarging the building. Although this is a step

forward, the present building, as' we remember it, is inadequate for a modern hospital. Adams county has such a tine hospital that few communities double its slxe compare with it. A hospital must be modern to be good and in the long run it might be cheaper for Jay county to construct a new build-i ingDon't lose faith. We generally work our problems in this country and fears once held, are erased with new causes coming to the front. Five years ago the country thought the end had come when the banks started closing. Funds were tied up. Many thought disaster was ahead. Today the banks are paying out, most of us have forgotten the fears of those days and now wonder about unemploy- t meat and taxes. Keep your feet, on the ground and maintain a spirit of faith and confidence in | yourself. Although increases are not enjoyed. it looks like the country will have to accept the boost in freight I rates in order to save the railroads from bankruptcy. The increases amount to five percent on farm and ' forest products and ten percent on nearly everything else, coal ex-I eepted. It is estimated the in-! creases will swell the railroad's till by $870,000,000 annually and that j should help a little, despite the j fact that it is just a little more j | than half the amount asked. An-, I thracite. or hard coal is not ex- | empt. but bituminious coal is. The latter product is carrying all it should in freight rates. A ton of . eastern coal, selling for around $1.50 a ton. carries a $2.50 tor wreight rate and the same rate holds if the coal sells for only $1 a ton. March 1 has come and gone, i I and thousands of farm families are living in new homes. They loaded up the furniture, packed ’dishes, carried the few precious' things to the strange house that was to be : home. Some of them know scarce- . ly anybody in the new neighborhood. The children are not acquainted in school. The mother i has been so submerged and tired with the vexations of getting settled that she has not had time to look around. So now is the time to do some real ‘ good neighboring" and make these folks feel at home. It is a simple thing to stop by for a minute and get acquainted, , j and it means a great deal to folks who are probably lonely for the| friends and neighbors they have left behind. Some communities have planned social gatherings ■ where the new neighbors are the ’ f guests of honor, where they are introduced to everybody. It's a 1 ’ good idea for your neighborhood. 1 -—Prairie Farmer. o Answers To Test | ! Questions Below are the answers to the 1 on Page Two Test Questions printed I ♦ ♦ 1. American Civil War. 2.
