everybody thinks they have troubles of
their own without bending a listening

WREN you have a bright idea of value

but let Tax Pon. know it so that the

Tax "know how" is of real valve when
it can be applied to the every day affairs
of life. As an instance, in Miami,.
Florida, an aeroplane was utilized in
grass seed sowing. boo acres were sown
in 20 minutes wbere regularly 2 men
with hand seeders would have spent 3o
days. An old saying was "Make your
bead save your heels" and the more of
that available the better the results
should be if good judgment is also on
the program.
Ir everybody .will make a systematic
and energetic effort to square up ac-
counts at the close of the year so as to
start tees with a clear sbeet there would
be the greatest stir -up fn business circles
that had been known for many a day.
A dollar goes a long way if it is kept
tolling and will be the medium of
settling up many an account. Let every-
body play checkers and move into the
King row of debt paying.
DON'T wait until you are called upon
to sing, recite or make a speech but
take advantage ot every leisure evening
and get ready to take your part. Alittle
time in preparation will be good practice
for yourself and will give an easy road to
do yourself justice if a burry -up call
comes. Every young person has a talent
for some of the Arts, or they should
have, so brush up your aptitudes and
surprise your friends and yourself.
