The Lure of the City
"The census of 1920 shows that appallingly
more people in this country live in cities and
towns than on farms," says the Cincinnati En quirer.
; "This exhibit invites serious reflection. Farms, until this "hour, have been the mainstay of the American nation by supplying food in sufficient quantity ard at cheaper prices than obtain in any other highly developed country. Besides, our farmsihave supplied" a large surplus for export. "If this advantage is lost by a further decrease in farming population, the struggle for existence will be much harder than heretofore and carry in its train political conditions even less reassuring than at present, when they have ceased to be ideal, for it is a well-established fact
that scarcity is not favorable to contentment and peace. The census conveys a warning of the approach of these less favorable conditions. "However, there is nothing unexpected in these figures. For some years a warning note has been sounded that the number of food producers id growing alarmingly less and various plans have been suggested to check the depopulation of rural communities. They were approved, but not carried out. But now it is
evident that the time for action has come. The young people are lured from the farm by the gay and apparently easier life in -cities. This
tendency can be overcome only by offering independence, which is priced by manly minds higher than pleasures, and it is gratifying to observe
that the sense of freedom still has a hold on the
American heart. This independence, in the pres
ent instance, must be purchased with money to
be advanced to those who are willing to take up the vocation of farming. Marshy lands must be drained, cutover land prepared for plowing, and as many large holdings as can be obtained on
reasonable terms parceled into small farms-
"In this way farming can be maintained as
the basic industry of the country, manufacturing kept on a firm foundation by securing abundant food at reasonable prices, and the conservative spirit of the farm strengthened as a counterpoise to the restless and even menacing atmosphere of large centers of industry."

The 'equal division is always, the just division half to you an a half to the other fellow. Be 50-50 f.ilr Be glad to give as mucin as you take. You who are an empfloye, are you sure you are giving in service and loyalty and Interest as much as you are taking, in salary, inspiration and training?

In order to find this sort of clothing store, there Is no better agency than an ouija board. Get Your Employer to Raise Tour Salary: This is perhaps the best method known of laying by something for a rainy day. It is known as the direct method. All you have to do is to hypnotize the employer and get him to sign a contract for a 50 per cent raise while he is unconscious.

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today

Grave tendered his resignation and again accepted the position of secretary of the Commercial club at Grand Forks, N. D., from which position he resigned to locate here. In his letter of resignation, he assigned the poor health of his wife as the cause of his resignation, but to some of his friends he confided that he and the directors could pot get along and he thought It better to go back to his old position.

One of the gas companies in Brooklyn is going to quit because it is losing money. Perhaps it has been operating with meters that have consciences. A woman went into a drug store the other day and said she would like to buy a washboiler. That may sound strange, but the strangest, the almost unbelievable ipart of it is that the druggist replied: "I am very sorry, madam, but I do inot kppn washboilers.

TOMB TO SUPERVISE VOCATIONAL TRAINING
H. G. McComb, vocational supervisor in Richmond schools, has been appointed state assistant supervisor of vocational work. The position is one of the most important in the state and carries with it a salary double what McComb would receive in Richmond schools. McComb will travel over the state supervising the vocational work. He will keep his home and family in Richmond. He will act as vocational supervisor of Richmond schools until a successor has been named. J. H. Bentley, superintendent or Richmond schools, says McComb has been signally honored by being named for the position. Several good men have been doing vocational work in the state longer than McComb and were considered in line for the assistant supervising job. Bentley says, however, that state educational officials believe McComb to be the best man in the state doing vocational work.
