,\\ Y UKVAMUTIOX.—The following paragraphs are excerpts {.rom
"Forty Ways in Which to Kill a Good Chamber of Commerce," which ap
peared In a_ recent issue of the Winnipeg Community Builder."
1. Dou't come to the meetings.
10. Get sore it you aie not appointed on a committee, but if you are
appointed, do not attend the committee meetings.
1Do nothing more tl.au is absolutely necessary, but when other
members roll up their sleeves and wiUiugly and unselfishly work to holp
matters along, howl tgat the orgamzaiiou is run by a clique.
13. Hold back your dues as long as possible, or don't pay at all. Claim
you forgot it, or didn't receive a statement.
15. Don't bother about getting new members. Let someone else do it.
11. If you actually can receive service from the work of the organ*
lzation without joining, don't think ui joining.
34. Get all the organization can give you, but dou't give It anythlug
except Hell.
36. When you pay your dues, make everybody feel that it is a Christ
mas present from you. Dou't consider it as a bus.ness investment.
3$. Attend the meet.tigs ouoe a year regularly, then claim the organ
ization don't do any thing because you never heard anything ubout it.

J. Carlton Saunders on me to lulu- !
self with a start, as Elizabeth spoke
his name. Ue knew froui the totie of
his sister's voice that she had spoken
before, ami hud been Ignored.
"You asked, toy dear—" he ques
tioned.
"When you are going away," Eliz
abeth retorted, "Isn't It about time for
one of your trips?"
"Yes," Carlton answered, "I ought
to be in New York this week."
He frowned; It was diplomacy to
pretend these business trips a bore
and a bother. Otherwise, the two el
derly and dominating sisters who were
his housekeepers and companions,
would feel themselves cheated of the
participation of a pleasure.
As a matter of fact, Carlton Saun
ders, In the prosy regime of his small
town home, looked forward to these
escapes Into an outer world with se
cret anticipation and enjoyment
Klizabeth and Katherine were good
sisters, anuoylngly anxious concerning
his welfare.
J. Carlton appreciated their solici
tude, while he fretted under the con
stant surveillauce. There were those
who Insisted that the kindly man
might long ago have rejoiced In a
home of his own with a wife-to share
it. had It not beeu for Elizabeth's and
{Catherine's rule. But the brother In
his heart refuted this.
Were his sisters not. bringing before
i hliu constantly possible applicants for
I matrimony?
! "Yes," he answered Elizabeth again.
"I must be In New York this week."
I "We will pack your valise," Katherine
I «ald, "and don't forget to wear your
rubbers."
Hut when he walked Into the New
York hotel a few days later, lie had
left, unconsciously, his habitual diffi
dence at home. His name on the regis
ter was signed merely Jack Saunders.
The clerk bowed Id greeting.
"Can't give you your usual room,"
he explained apologetically, "we are
filled up."
The room the bellboy ushered him
, Into was comfortable enough. But as
he turned to place coat and hat on the
j hanger. J. Saunders stared: a flinty
i blue cloud of something had forestalled
j him there.- While all about the small
j room was the Indefinable fragrance of
I that mystical romance, which he had
j missed. Lilac, or lily of t!ie valley or
I Just sweet springtime—what was the
alluding odor which enchauted his
senses?
A tup on me ooor. < amiuu tomni
guiltily. A woman's face w#» raised
to his—her eyes were as blue as the
HI my cloud on the hanger, hut they
u ere not the eyes of a young girt—nor
yet the calm gazing eyes that Eliz
abeth would have recommended.
I "I am afraid I left some of my bt>
I longings In this room." the sweet
faced woman said. "I had decided to
. occupy It w hen the clerk discovered
j that the one I prefer was vacated,
j So they curried my grip lu there. 1
!8in sorry—" she paused, aud then at
■ Ms bow of permission, gathered up
I her apparel and went on her way.
j Hut the hreath of springtime remained.
, When J. Carlton went Into the diulug
j hull at evening, he saw the young " "lu
ll U seated alone at u secluded table.
He liked the plainness of her blue
terge dress, which was such a different
plainness from Julia Well's, or ills sis
ter's; and he liked the plquaut hat
i t int she becomingly wore. As he
passed down the corridor to his ronai,
111 gave hltn en unaccountable feeling
of relief, to hear the woman ut the
hall desk address the lady of the blue
| cloud a» "Miss Darby." Miss, then
she was not married. He speculated
about her. as he bent over his writing.
The usually matter-of-fact John Curl
i ton could not write: he could not take
'hold of his work; h»* decided to retire.
And there on the floor at his feet, lav
a pair of small blue slippers, quilted
sutln slippers with ridiculous fluffy
i pompons upon either toe. So, she hud
j forgotten these. They were the sort
.of slippers a Cinderella of past dream
ing might have chosen—to slip on In
. the firelight. The following morning
he sank Into a chair In an ad
joining "coiTee house" and opened
his paper. Springtime floated provoc
atively around hlin. lilac aud lliy-of
the-valley springtime. Two very blue
eyes smiled over a coffee cup, oppo
site.
"Good morning," greeted the lady of
the blue cloud, "thank you for return
ing my slippers."
"1 travel," she told him upon their
third chance breakfast together, "for
a linen company. Imported Uncus.
My knowledge In that line was my
one chance for self-support after my
father died. It's a good business, but
It leaves me homeless. That's—the
drawback."
"1 have a home—" Carlton said
musingly, "an old place, with bushes
around It."
"Not." asked the woman eagerly,
"not lilac bushes?"
Carlton nodded.,
"How I would love It," she ex
claimed.
"1 am old," he answered her Irrele
vantly. "I was mourning over my
bald head this morning."
I "So much—" asked the lady oppo
site, "that you quite missed the clear,
youth of your eyes?"
Wheu Elizabeth and Katherlne re
ceived a telegram some days later, they
stared at each other In speechless
amazement.
"Married." read the brief message
from their brother, "bringing my wife
home with ma."
DISCOVER MOONSHINE PLANT
While tnkmg » woodland hike, a
group of boy scouts of u Virginia city
jtercelved * [>ecu»iar odor at their
camping point, Tftey thou tin little
of It at first and went on with their
grout activities as scheduled. As time
went on the odor remained and two
scouts poking Into a thicket of tall
weeds discovered a miniature still. The
boys hastened bnc\ to town and re
ported their discovery to the federal
prohibition o Ulcer, who, guided by
scouts. went to the spot and destroyed
whatever remained of the moonshine
paraphernalia. This particular troop
was only chartered September 8. and
since that date It has given a valuable
service at the county fair, and suc
cessfully fought a serious forest flrv
which threatened to destroy a negro"
settlement.
PLEDGE AID TO U. S. CONFERENCE
At a recent rally In Syracuse, N. Y..
some 1,%M scouts, representing Ouon
duga council, listened to a stirring
speech on the issues at stake In the
disarmament conference, at the close
of which they passed a resolution de
claring their support to the L'nited
States government in the efforts to lim
it armament. The resolution was
wirelessed to President Harding.
Kmlnent Japs d" iy any thought of
home trailing In their diplomatic op
erations, which of course ifould.be an
Inseparable part of any bargaining
program.
After ypnrs of effort, scientists final
ly have segregated, measured and
modeled a molecule. Though molecules
are the most plentiful of all things
they are excessively gregarious.
American exports In October, 1921.
were valued at about one-third as
much as the exports in October. 1SC0
This proves what .vas already known
—that an lni|M»veri>hed world is not a
good customer.
It is more blessed lo give than to
receive, and less likely to clutter you
up with things you have no use for.
The moral is to gi*e to the needy the
things they especially need.

MaKe This Your 1922 Slogan
"Try The Home Market First"
As a Northerner, a Pioneer, an Cpbullder of Alaaka. yon are
peeved every time you hear of the appointment of & "carpetbagger"
to fill one of the political offices of tbe territory, because yo« know
that there are capable and efficient men llTtng In tbe territory who
could fill the offices with perfect satisfaction, who are helping to
build up the territory and make It a worth while place In which to
live.
Is Is a parallel case when Northerners send their money out
side for supplies that may be bought right here at home and glre
better satisfaction than the "carpetbagger" etulf Imported from tbe
Slates. M
Is It not a fact that we are all working to build up the North
to make it a worth-while place in which to lire, and by "trying your
home market first" you are strengthening the foundation for that
building?
