THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., MONDAY, APRIL 18, 1921.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM Published Every Evening Except Sunday by Palladium Printing Co. Palladium building, - North Ninth and Sailor Streets. Entered at the Post Office at Richmond, Indiana, as ' Second-Clafes Mail Matter. .' MEMBER OP THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for republication of all news dispatches credited to it or not otherwise credited in this paper, and also the local news published herein. All rights of republication of special dispatches herein are also reserved. , ; The "Bean Basis" ' "Let. lis get on a bean basis and then maybe we can get back to turkey on occasions." In this phraseology the head of a New York organization conveys a thought about re-adjustment and construction which all of us may take to heart with profit to ourselves individually and to the country collectively. He means to say that we have forgotten to differentiate between luxuries and necessities. We fail to see that many of our desires are to be classified as extravagances; we want turkey every day, instead of on holidays and festive occasions. Back of all this is the truth, that if we do not curb our wants, so as to be able to enjoy turkey once in a while, the day will come when we cannot have turkey at all. If we continue to demand turkey, we will exhaust the supply, and will be unable to obtain the delicacy on the days when we are entitled to it. The "bean basis" is one on which our country has risen to its power and wealth. Because our forefathers were willing to deny themselves many luxuries, they were able to accumulate capital for investment in great projects. Because they did not spend all their money for turkey, but were satisfied to live frugally and within their means, they piled up the financial resources which in the last few years have enabled us to become the great creditor nation of the world. - There are times when it is fit and proper to ask for turkey, but just now we are in a season when beans are in order for all of us, employer and employe. The doughboy in France did not demand turkey. He knew it was unreasonable to ask for a delicacy in that emergency, and so

he was satisfied, in fact, often glad to get plain army food. So also in an era of reconstruction. Instead of making unreasonable demands and grumbling at our lot, the wise and sensible course suggests a return to earnest and deliberate thinking and doing. No one wants to live on beans all his life. But by so doing in emergencies and critical periods, the wise and thoughtful man accumulates the money wherewith he is able to purchase luxuries and comforts in seasons of sunshine. We cannot have turkey without eating beans during a considerable portion of the year. This holds true of the manufacturer, business and professional man, and the worker. Let all of us get back on a "bean basis" and we will soon solve the knotty problem of unemployment, see the wheels of our factories revolve, and enjoy the turkey of prosperity and happiness. Business has to get down to a "bean basis." The deflation that is going on shows how the turkey is being squeezed out of invoices in the press of a lessening demand for commodities. This gradual return of prices to normalcy, accompanied as it is in some cases with heavy losses, is bringing us back to a sound starting point for a succeeding era of prosperity.

MANY NEW FACES SEEN IN U. S. SENATE AT SPECIAL SESSION

The Free Employment Bureau Close co-operation between the Social Service bureau and the proposed free employment agency should tend to diminish the number of

demands for charity. The interrupted earning capacity of a worker, if long continued, may force him against his own will and desire to appeal for aid. If the employment bureau succeeds in placing him at profitable work, it prevents an application for public support. On the other hand, the Social Service bureau often has cases where relief would not be needed if the head of the family could be given employment. By handing his name to the employment bureau, the man may be assigned to a position where he will earn enough to maintain his family without assistance from other sources. Unemployment is one of the causes of poverty. If potential dependents can be kept at work, a beneficial service will be performed for both the man and the community.

INGROWN TOE NAIL

TURNS OUT ITSELF

A noted authority says that a few drops of "Outgro" upon the skin surrounding the ingrowing nail reduces inflammation and pain and so toughens the tender, sensitive skin underneath the too nail, that it can not penetrate the flesh, and the nail turns naturally outward almost over night. "Outgro" is a harmless, antiseptic manufactured for chiropodists. However, anyone can buy from the drug store a tiny bottle containing directions. Advertisement.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" MIKE That's his first name and that's what we all call him. He came to us one day and said that he wanted to work for us. We looked him over and liked him very much. We talked to him and asked him all about himself. He had "reasons" for wanting to work for us, and he stated them very specifically and earnestly. And so we took him in with us. That was many years ago. And we have always been glad that he came. Mike is a worker. He never shirks. He never passes to someone else something that he can do bettr than anyone else. He doesn't watch the clock. He is considerate of others. His eyes snap with pride when he talks about his dear old Mother. Mike began at the very bottom with us. He asked for a few things to do and then found many things to do. He is careful, painstaking and thorough. Mike can be. trusted. He has the business at heart, and so he has heart for business. Each year finds Mike more valuable. He is growing all the time. When you ask him a thing, he either knows or does not know and he says so frankly. Mike was born in Italy but he is as near 100 American as a man can b?. He is an inspiration to those who work with him. Mike has a happy little sweetheart and he is counting the days when he is going to have her for his very own. Already he is planning out the small home in which the dreams of both are to be realized. We are all happy in our office over the happiness of Mike. Because we all love him. We feel that he richly deserves what he has worked so hard to get. He is the story of honest success well earned. No, you can't have Mike. We wouldn't know how to get along without him! And besides we need him more than you do.
