BOY SCOUT WEEK Poj Scciiu-, rboir aponsorj, officers and admirers, are look Ins Vol ur d to tho coming week which la the .Annua! Hoy Scout Week with a great deal of pleasure and amid gallon . As the week marks tha eleventh eniverbary of th'- movement. It is well to note the growth of Scootinc; to the yolut where It embraces over r.'g.oOO !":. :: i::M,'i Scout-masters and assistants; f 5 , 5 6 s .'our, i;iii '.i and troop comroittaemen, a gigantic array that id making s.hh! tneu out of the average boys and teektng by precept and example to make manly boys t:ut of a n;:iua more, all of tliem worth making in-n i S'-uutias !s rio louder at. experiment, it ti a Oj5d fact, and It is nov possible for these who back it to pidnts of rcsuHs. Indeed the record of what Eoy Scouts have dono during the past four years I a revelation to those not intimately associated with their activities. It is fti-prj.-ing that more fa the -a who hava sor.a a t ; ro' interested more in Scouting and e believe it ;:i because, mainly because they are ignorant of the :-ago!Wnr teaching- of Scout law.

Is there a man living who would not be proud to have his boy trained for citizenship as they are trained in Scouting citizenship of a distinctive character and community value under the rule unselfish leadership of men who are devoted to the boy? There is only one answer to such a question. There is no father -.-ho does not want his son elean-minded and healthy, helping him to be the man of tomorrow his father hopes him to be. Tor these reason a the Boy Scout Movement, although barely started, and with less than six years' history in our country, has commanded the support of the foremost leaders In every walk of life, Including trine of the most prominent educators. Theodore Roosevelt had once characterised the f." Scout Movement as "distinctly an asset to our country for the development of efficiency, virility and iwd citizenship.-' President Wilson says: "It Is fine

to bare a lot of boys of our country organiied for the purposes the Boy ScoutB represents. I am proud of their manliness." Among many educational experts who haTa been Interested in the movement. Dean Russell, of the Teacher's Collge of Columbia Univrsity, Lao expres

sed himself at length. Tla regards the Boy Scout !

Morement as "one of the most valuable educational agencies o? thin generation,' and hopea "to see the time hen every Amrican boy will look forward to being a g-ood ecout and will bo trained to Incorporate the Ideals of the boy into his life as an American citizen." As next week is Boy Scout Week, opportunity will ha given to parents to see the value of Scout training in the demonstrations, stunts, good turns, services, rallies, window displays and likes, which are to ho part of the Scout ay program, which begins tomorrow and lasts until the last camp Are on Saturday night. The city needs far more Boy Scouts than it has, just as it needs the better things of life. Study the little men who boast they are Scouts aud interest yourself in them. If you haven't a boy of your own to become a Scout try to get some other boy Interested. Do a good turn yourself.

HOW MUCH

DO YOU KNOW?

UNLEASHING A BILLION DOLLARS Turn a billion dollars Joce and something e going to happen. That's Just what tho Foreign Trade financing Corporation Is going to do, and when this gigantic organization of capital begins to function business ia going to feel the thrill of vivacity. America's biggest business men for many weeks have ben predicting an era of prosperity that will keep the wheels of prosperity humming Indefinitely. Some believed, some disbelieved, but tho doubting Thomas will soon be invited to look and eee what things have come to pass. Banks all over the United States hare received an invitation to subscribe eix per cent, of their capital and burp! us to this great banking corporation, and if the attitude of the local banks can be taken as a criterion, the response will be all that could be expected. Europe needs American products worse than America needs European products. Europe will buy American goods if she can secure long term credits. The Foreign Trade Financing Corporation wilt extend credits to those iirrna who are now unable to pay cash, thus an outlet is established for American goods and the channels of trade that have been clogged for want of proper credit for months will be opened and American Industries will feel an impetus that -will eclipse any previous period in normal times, it is said. According to local authorities the Corporation will be in a position to begin business about March first.

THE FATHER OF THE TYPEWRITER The typewriter is one modern invention -which 1'iomas A. Kdlson did not originate. The credit is riven to Christopher H. Sho'es who, according to the Oilc'al records, was granted a patent in 1S8S. He died in 18? unhonored and unsung. Hla grave even v.-as unmarked. And now it. is proposed to pay this tardy tribute by erecting a modest monument. There are few persons who do not owe a debt at least of gratitude, to this inventor for the time and labor that have been f.aved to them by his ingenious device. It'has saved time and energy and tamper not only for those v,ho write, but for those who read. For tbe art of Spencerian penmanship la given to few. Who can estimate the hours spent in tbe old day3 in laborious deciphering of hand-written eonunications? Today the '-ontents of a typewritten letter can be gathered at a giance. all excent the signature, which frequently defies even the experts at chirography. A recent commendable business Innovation wbicb ought to be generally adopted is the typewriting of the author's name, which he can supplement, if he wishes, with hie pen-written signature. Besides its obvious contributions to modern 'business effliciency, the typewriter was largely responsible for the opening-up to women of occupations previously monopolized by men. Stenography and typewriting made an immediate appeal to women, who tbowed a liecullar aptitude for their skillful performance. Today tbe majority cf those who run type-writers are women. But many men who have typists at their command are accustomed to use the machine themselrea for purposes of original composition. President Wilson is perhaps our first -chief executive to do hia own typewriting of the initial draft of his messages to congress and other important documents and he formerly used a machine for some of his most important private correspondence. Tt is a pathetic thought that the man who apparently conceived the original idea for the wonderful time-saving invention reaped no financial benefit from it. But the Held of invention provides many parallels to hia experience.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR ANNOUNCEMENT Eckel FX l ord, president of the Ford Motor Company, gxvrs out the following statement: "The price of the FORDSON TRACTOR has been reduced from $790.00 to $625.00. effective immediately. "Tins price change has been made possible through lower costs of materials and the fact that we are now located in our new Tractor Plant with greatly increased economic manufacturing facilities in immediate connection with our foundry and machine hops and large blast furnaces where iron is poured directly from the ore, giving u maximum efficiency with the power to reduce cost of production, and down comes the price in line with our policy to market our products at the lowest possible figure without in any way affecting our high standard of quality. "We are particularly pleased in being able to bring about this big reduction in price at this time because the farmer needs all the help we can' give bim and this big cut in price will be the means of placing a valuable power unit within the reach of practically every one of them, not to mention industrial and commercial concerns which likewise have benefited through its use and are realizing, to a much greater extent, its value as a power and hauling unit. But particularly has the FORDSON TRACIOR proved a most valuable factor in the saving of farm labor, at the same time in ci easing the per acre crop yield as well as making possible a utilization of previously ui)cu!tiated land, to say nothing of removing no end of drudgery. "There is no question that the use of machine power on the farm is the greatest advancement made in the development of agriculture, not only in money saving and money making results, as well as raising the standards of IKing on the farm to a much higher level, but because of its proved value in making every type of land more productive, and consequently our dejire to place the FORDSON within the reach of all. "THERE IS NO CHANGE IN THE PRESENT 1 OKL CAR AND TRUCK PRICES, which are already at the lowe-t poss'H" hurr i-d now with rock bottom reached on the tractor price a further reduction in price of either the Car, Truck or Tractor is out of the question; in fact, the big price cuts have been made in anticipation of continuous maximum production and increases may be necessary before long if a large volume of new business is not obtained. Therefore, present prices of Ford products cannot be guaranteed against possible increases." tor the book "The Fordson at 'ork" which will be supplied free of cost. Let us demonstrate the

the Fordson on your farm, in your factory, lumber yard, coal yard, or in any general hauling oi ork you have to do and let us have your order for a Fordson.
