FRIDAY, JANUARY <5, 1921. n m r o t a k e stock ! The year just closed was one quite the reverse of the past few years if we are to he guided by what we hear on almost every hand. The entrance of * mew year is the usual, time for merchants and xnanu facturers to “take stock” and- sec just how the business0has succeeded lo t tiie proceeding year. I t has come to mind since reading the financial statement of The Ex- Chang Bank to be found in this is­ sue th a t we should “take stock” ot the standing of the Community now As with that o t one year ago. No bet ter method of showing the county ana state how QEfdarvilie- stand# than oy the comparison of bank state­ ments one year ago and now, According to our files we find that the combined resources of The Ex­ change Bank, January 1921 were $594,496,28. A. glance a t the state­ ment This week shows that the re ­ sources' of the same institution a re now $619,098.87, a gain of $24,602,69 m what most of have called a,year of depression. Individual deposits subject to check one year ago were $255,334.23: while the individual-deposits now are $345,836,52, a gain during an oft year of $90,602.59.- We have taken the items of individual deposits sub­ ject for comparison which should reflect the true situation for this community, { People, seem* to have the. idea that there is no money and everyone is hard up from the merchant to the farmer. On thfe other hand the com­ munity instead ox going backward nas progressed during the past year. Our churches and institutions have been given loyal financial' support, the township taking the lead in the Bed, Cross membership drive. This* comparison evidently places Cedarvilla and. this community in an enviable position, I t is a record that the larger and smaller cities cannot coast of in most instances. The Herald has maintained that business conditions were not as bad in this section a s some would have you be­ lieve. Our people are thrifty, pro­ gressive in-every line of endeavori Optimism prevails and we face the new-year-proud of our record and de­ termined to make a better Showing tor the coming year. THE NEW YEAR. ‘ The new year greets us a s have all the, recorded years of time. I t now matters little what the old ->year meant to you.. I t is gope—gone into the infinite abyss of the past which holds the joys, sufferings and strug­ gles of humanity from its vradling to the present. I f t> a dead year hohh pleasant memories, be thankful. They are hut memories, and what is now important is, with what courage do we face the new year? The. future al­ ways .is rich with hope and inspir­ ation, The past is useless, save as we may profit from experience,. If we have learned anything while we trod the pathway of life that now stretches behind us we have learned th a t faith, effort and service only can lead us to that happiness which truly**is Worth while. Faith, effort and Service only can make for success in business. We are a, business nation. We have just weathered a mighty Storm, The waves have not wholly subsided, but ithey are responding to that breathing A YEAR'S WORK OF THE AMERICAN FARMER; NO STRIKE THERE!

MEARICKS Second a n d M ain , * D ayton , Ohio S3 f 3as’ it P n Decided by Ancient Law. A decision which depended on n low 1,400 years old was given In the coun­ ty court at Bath, Holland, win- Judge .tames had to rule whether or not the owner of bees which leave tlielr hive and swarm some distance away la en­ titled to regard them as his property. James Barsfone claimed damages from Herbert Bumming, a neighbor, for a swarm of bees whic1 Bumming Is al­ leged to have self 1m judge said it had beeh cleat * » hundreds of years, nnder a law.-laid down by the Emperor Justinian, that a swarm of bees belonged to a map as long as they were in hi# sight, and could easily be pursued. Otherwise they hccatnu the property of the first person who saw them. The law, he said, w\s just, as It was hundreds of years ago and hs dMid-m to a the defendant, Metal Oddities. "thf Importance of the remarkable sutfnoe actions that distinguished met­ als generally-was noted in a lecture by Sir william Tlfden at the British .•dentlfld products exhibition. The property of platinum of causing tho combination of oxygen gas with hydro­ gen and other combustible substances vrn# discovered by Davy one hundred i years ago? but other metals show1still \ stranger powers. One of the most v.-it* ’ noble Is the power possessed by nickel of causing hydrogen to combine, with heated oil, converting it into a fat that is solid when cold. A substance tit-ting by its mere presence In this way Is termed a catalyst, and entalys- tie actions are now turned to account on n large scale In making sulphuric and nitric adds and ammonia, In the surface combination of gas, In obtain­ ing fats from whale oil, and in a va> Hety of manufacturing processes. A great field is open In the study of catalyst^ effects, Dally Care of Plant*. Window plants rolled dust cnttily and so should bo carefully dusted. If necessary, before • watering so that they will get the benefit of tho water and look really green and henlthy. A palm, begonia or any woody plant may be dusted with a very dott bristle brush, tiio roots of plants must he thoroughly soaked. All plants do bet­ ter If repotted once a year so a# to allow any uecessary root expansion. Ferns must often be. divided to prevent crowding. No plant should be placed In a crowded position in a room either against another plnnt or furniture If it Is to look and do well. Neither must it be set lu ri„place where it will get even the slightest knocking, for fern# especially have delicate frond# that #fe sensitive to n mere touch. Three Mile* ot Marble Csyss. Amid the wild# of southwestern Ore­ gon, almost Unknown to the world at large, Is situated a series of -under­ ground chambers and passages remark, rtble for their size aftd for the heanty and unusual character, of their deco­ rations. Within the 1ftst-few year# they nave been wade a national monument, and are now known as the Marble Oaves of Oregon., Tim caves consist of three miles and a half of marble passages and grottoes, ranging from one story to four or five stories in height, in places the connecting *or* floors are so low that one must crawl on all fours for * considerable dis­ tance, Elsewhere the chambers are so large that the opposite walls end ceilings ere scarcely visible in the dim candlelight. The largest measures more than 500 feet high. .
