Business condition##*-# not good and from tadiontaom we i. Tha fib fully developed story when a much may not find much improvement for some time rid ate*y of prosperity being around the corner is no longer repeated as It failed its purpose. All things are finding a new level and the whole world being involved we have no precedent of the past to guide us. An over supply of optimism-may be as harmful to some individual as too much pessimism. Coijeervatiam is the only watchword worth while at this time. Great f urtunes have been reduced to a comparative few thousands and outstanding business executives are developing wrinkled brow# to solve the present entanglement, The man that can keep his own house in order is not going to. have much time to “butt” into other people's affairs. PUBLIC SCHOOLTEACHERS DOING THEIR PART , The financial situation in the state hag brought the public school# face to face with a new issuer-fund# to operatora fu ll school year. In mostplaces school teachers have been elected for no definite period and in some cases at no definite salary, although the law requires a,nine months school term and sets a minimum salary. It is1# Very Important thing to have a full school year. It xs more thana dollar and cent proposition. >Young folks have but one life, to live, one period for training to meet the future prob­ lems and be ready to assumethe task citizenship may require of them some twenty ,pr thirty years hence. ‘ If this education is ' deferred by short school terms, who is there thatcan say that the young folks of today may not; have the interest for educa­ tion of future generations. Should such bethecasethe church alone would be the greatest Sufferer. These two institutions cannot be separated for one cannot grow without the other, From indications the public school teachers are willing to teach a nine'month period for an eight months salary. This in . a way is a reduction in salary. It will lift part of the. financial .load for boards of education. Moreover such a voluntary move on the part of.the teachers is recognizing the situation and dis- . playing a willingness to lend aid, that has not yet been display­ ed in some other branches. . jJ. There have been mistakes in the past as to school operation as well as school management. There were many more in the .road building program following the advent of the.,automobile. There Is no doubt thatmuch of our public debt has. been cauesd , ** DOWE KNOW WHEREOUR MONEY GOES? According to government reports it costs the average fam­ ily about one-third-off hi* income for food, or about $548.51 Bent, or home ownership about one-fifth or $342.14. Clothing for the family $287,60 leaving about $385.04 for insurance and pleasure, doctor bills, education of his children, etc, These figures cannot be matched anywhere else’ in the world. No where has the average citizen as comfortable living quarters or as good and ample food. When we hear of conditions abroad and compare with what we have at home, we have much more to be thankful for than any people under any flag. Millions of foreign people are worldhg under compulsion for as low as 17 to 36 cents a day and have nb pleasure. Even education and re­ ligious training for the young is denied. We are not as bad .off as we think we are. Wl»* wants to ftsewe Gw ** W tto imgtau II T Bar* it your, opportunity Ftoridteg you aw moot the qftlifie*- ttons.

There had never been any doubt about milk *s„excellent food far hogs but what profit it would ,bring was something else, -Hurley purchased 11 hogs weighing.!,tl4 pounds, anAv­ erage o f 104 pounds. He. sold them weighing an average of 211 pounds, a gain o f .two pounds daily on milk and com. Xenia opened her great white,"way Saturday night, when the new boule­ vard system was put in use. - The center o f the city hahbeen relieved o f both electric and telephone pole by the use of the underground system. Both the Bell Telephone Company and the Payton Power,& Light Co. co-op­ erated in this advanced step which adds much to the appearance of the city. The new lighting system is the latest known and sets the business sections off in true metropolitan style. Numerous stop' light to control motor car traffic have also been installed as well as a .new flash system for police calls. Xenia may have fallen into the same pit many cities , .do when it conies to traffic lights. There may be more than actually necessary and by far too close together. Ae a result in some sections traffic is retarded. ip« stead of being moved up at even' a safe speed. . ’ dnetien.

Being exposed to elertrical atoms far above surrounding build­ ings it was- natural ."that- .^Stoning might strike the high buildings first, bitty * few fawtaitori- have -been ,re­ ported where high buttfilnia Were ev­ er. struck by . lightning. One excep­ tion was last week when during An electrical storm the A. 1, U. tower - which reaches #66.5 feet above the sidewalk in Cblutribus, pr*s bit,.tear-/ ing off part’o f a chunk o f cement that weighed five pounds;. It has been geb< orally supposed that-such buildings having so much steel in the cement'as re-inforcement, there would .be teas possibility o f.attracting lightning.- t• *s ........ . ^ , Several days ago « man rushed in ,to the office to find out the quickest way to figure toe number"of acres |n a piece of.ground. The mathamaticril rule Was given but Ripley, the car­ toonist a few days gives a rule that is easily remembered and no doubt ia correct. Multiplythe square feet bjf 23 andmark off six decimalplaces and the remaining figure is to# answer* Ton might try it to find out whether the rule will work out, it would be in­ teresting to ssy toe least.

Both seemed to agree that certabr retrenchment must beunade but neith­ er could agree on what it should be. One suggested the school costs should1 be reduced fifty psr cent and lei it go at that* The after thought different' but that all branches o f our state and, total governments should stand Oquri < cute. As too gentfomaa that Wanted a cut mad* in schools was a farmar, his opponent directed another ques­ tion carrying a proposal that the dif­ ferent farm interests take thrir~out in like manner, but there was some objection to that. Her* lies the diffi­ culty to bring about A reduction. It iauet bo agreed that #11 ifitaroste bo* wittta# to stand for a roduetieu. A group of men were discussing some heavy subjects some evenings ago when up came the question as to the differenoe in weight o f * gallon of boiling water and' a gallon ’of cold About twento Pto *#nt differ- onee In lavor Of.too coH water. Then camis a new on* that might #**##», a nmotoNd dptriattokitop to ;ptov*. ’I f * tub and «?«itente o f water weigh ffK> pounds; what Witt hd the weight o f to# tub end.water if a ten pound tur­ tle rn'ldaced^tite-waft^h# tub? This started an argument that matha- matical rules ceuld not settle to the satisfaction o f all. The answer is that ft* tab o f water will not be any heavier by adding the ten pound tur­ tle. We give ye# the problem and toe answer and each must determine for himself ft* correctness o f it. Whit* moat people would subscribe to one or more of the recommend* tions, the saving would be small to toe average taxpayer in that county. It must be admitted that every little bit helps but there are bigger things that are overlooked because they, are probably more dietaat. Wo might mention for inatanc* too cost of the new State office building to house the many state office employee* that can bedispensed with. Never didOhio take such an unfortunate step at a critical time. Why should the national gov­ ernment be l e nding several hundred million dollars during the depression to erect expensive pogt office buildings over the country? The national deficit continues to grow each month yet the building ptsn continues. Had the con­ gressman of the few admirers in this district, Cheeky Brand, had his way, the district would have b*#n plastered with poet office bottdfsgs which would have been paM far by tax money at a very serious time. One o f onr uni­ versities asked something like twenty million dollars of (he legislature. For a moment atop and think how far such a sum would go to keeping open .toe public schools in scores o f counties at ho expense to the local taxpayers, tty this reference .wedo hot infer that the school seeking such a sum should >be closed by any means. Yet it is more important that we keep >{>ur grade and high school* going. There can be no denial but that reductions might he made in counties but do hot over­ look toe enormous east o f some oth­ er branch o f our government. Vl> .
