Vice President Marshall
Preaches Good Doctrine
Vice President Marshall h
sounding a warning as he goe;
over the country—a warning
against our latter day tenden
cy of going to the government
with all our troubles.
If the price of wheat is be
low the cost of production,
the wheat farmers want the
government to protect them.
If the price of cotton is below
the cost of production, the
cotton farmers want some as
sistance from Uncle Sam. The
schools here and there ask for
assistance. The result of all
this is that the American peo
ple are beginning to think that
the troubles are in the govern
ment, not in themselves.
America v\ is built on the
theory that t.n • least possible
government is the best- That
is certainly true and our great
institutions stand as a living
example of that truth. Are we
now to depart from the ways
of our forefathers and become
puppets to bureaus in Wash
ington?
If we keep on, it will not be
long before a man will get up
in the morning under direc
tions from a bureau ; his break
fast will be prepared from a
bureau cookbook; his horse
will be fed from a bureau feed
k; a plow book from a bu
reau will be fastened to his
cultivator; his children will go
to a certain school dictated by

his home will be daily inspect

his hogs will be vaccinated by
a bureau doctor; and before
going to bed he will read from
a bureau sleep book the exact
number of degrees his toes
must be tilted north by north

What we need is a reawak
ening of the old American
spirit oJ[ self dependence. We
need more work and less ad
vice ; fewer bureaus and fewer
cheap clerks issuing orders and
suggesting remedies. The gov
ernment should do for individ
uals only that which they can
not do for themselves. Let us
get back to essentials and do
aw’ay with so much paternal
ism. Let’s follow the advice
of the able Vice President,
fight our own battles, and give
the officers a chance to serve
intelligently, and America will
be better in every way.

Crosswhite. "Six bot

Its soon going to be time to think about stoves.
In order to be in position to furnish our cusotners
with the best stoves we had to think about them long
time ago. We had to buy months ago in order that
we might get delivery now. -And we have the best
lines of stoves right now to be tound in North Arkan
sas. Stoves are only one of the many things in the
way of home furnishings that we have been studying
and buying in advance to give our patrons the advan
tage of being able to ^ee and inspect before they bu>.
Our big store building is crowded to its limit with ev
erything in hardware and homefurnishings and we
have many items that we are not able to open up at
all on account of lack of space. _\V e are building an
addition in order to give us room to better display
our furniture, and if there is anything you want that
you don’t see when you enter our store, ask for it.
