Mrs. H. H. Cherry, a guest of the class .closed the meeting by describ­ ing her work With the Sunshine Ciub and soliciting opr aid. WRONG POINT OF VIEW There are a few, it seems, who see a reprehensible waste of money in decorating the city street* and stores for the Christmas season, in times such as these. Why was not the money spent in this way saved and given for relief of the poor ? they ask. One can hardly help thinking of that question quoted inavery old but very good book: “ Why was not this oint­ ment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?” though of amuse the circumstances are not fen- ..rely parallel. It may be said with all confidence, iiowever, that nobody is going tc any less to eat in Columbus, this win­ der, because o f these street and store md office building decorations, nor be­ cause of the still larger amounts, that will be spent on observance of the Christmas season in other ways. The public recognition of the Christ­ mas festival stirs into action, sources of charity that might otherwise lie dormant; and although our Cpmmun- .isdmate-of heed, Christmas observan- ity relief fund is short of the advance ue, even in the. giving o f gifts to those spirit that will supply the deficiency . v in need, assists in arousing c as the winter goes on. Holiday decorations; aid in making Christmas a time of cheer, and cheer itself is one o f the pressing needs of times like these. -—Columbus Dispatch I W e have a number of peat due account* thatif not paid or arranged for satisfactorily by December 25th 1932, we will advertise the same for sale.

U. : HOST OF EVILS TO FOLLOW BEER’S RETURN Believing that the public should bo warned agaiptt the alluring promise* that the wets are making if the Vol­ stead Act should be amended and beer should again be legalized, Dr. F. Scott McBride, general superintendent o f the Anti-Saloon League, lists among the harmful results that may come, the following; An immedate increase in traffic casualties. . An immediate increase in the num­ ber of alchol addicts, particularly a- mong young people. An immediate decrease in merchan­ dise sale* with loss of profits and em­ ployment in other industries. An immediate increase in enforce­ ment difficulties with enforcement machinery paralyzed by political in­ fluence and a convenient cover for illicit whisky sales provided by beer trade. WOULD RETURN OF BEER HELP UNEMPLOYMENT? Conceding that the reopening of the breweries would give some men jobs, it is safe to assert that such relief would be very small because the very nature of the brewing business requir­ es a minimum of human labor.. Instead o f the million men that the wets are claiming would be supplied with work by the opening of the beer factories there would be only a little over 60,000 in all probability, judging by the men employed in the business m other years. But what about the other side of ehe question? Mr. Richard Scott, president of the Reo Motor Company, and a large employer of labor, asks in a letter addressed to August A: Busch, the' big brewer, what about two other effects that would counterbalance the. giving of jobs to half a million men? Mr. Scott says, as reported by the American Business 'Men’s Foundation, of which Mr. Scott is president: "In a time like this, to talk of di­ verting $400,000,000 (Mr, Busch’s es­ timate) or any substantial part of this amount, from the nation's mar­ ket for necessities and wholesome lux­ uries, to the coffers of a traffic that can only exist as a parasite on all le­ gitimate industry, is unmitigated non­ sense,” he wrote. “ From what source do you think the money would come to pay the wages o f these men, to purchase this coal, gas, raw material, and to con­ tribute $409,000,000 in taxes? "The true answer can he given in a single sentence:. "The people would have to pay for your restored beer prosperity. "Every dollar of the wages you prof­ fer the unemployed would have to come from the people, from-the mil­ lions who would pay fo r the beer you would sell with money that would thereby be diverted from legitimate business (necessities arji refreshing luxuries. "And the cost o f them would not only be the millions they would be lured to give you directly for your beer, di­ verted from legitimate industries, but added to that would have to pay in the damaged health, the shattered home, the mounting inefficiency, disease, crime, poverty and degradation that have always been the inevitable ef­ fects of the beer trade and the liquor traffic, legal or illegal, whenever it has touched mankind. “Have you asked the great railroad presidents what daily patronage of the re-opened beer bar they would recommend to their 2,000,000 engi neers, train dispatchers, telegraphers, shopman and other employes; have you consulted the captains o f industry as to what part of this $400,000,OoO they would like to have their 8,360,000 wage-earning employes contribute to insure your comeback, and polled A- merica’s 9,000,000 farmers, 40,000,- 000 mothers, 2,000,000 teachers, law­ yers, public, officials, physicians and others, as to what their proportion should be ? "The ironclad necessity of clear brains for owtiers and operators of 26,000,000 automobiles is self-evi­ dent.” ^CLIFTON PRESBYTERIAN Clair V. McNeel, Pastor Sunday School at i0 A. M.

Some o f these accounts were opened w ith special verbal agree ments, and some with no agreement o f any kind. Some were paid at the specified time and some were not, and some have runconsiderable time leaving me quite a large amount in ac­ counts outstanding, which hinders me in carrying a Stock o f Merchandise. It is impossible for me to go on giving Credit only under Special Conditions, and' then for a very limited time. In former years Thirty Days were considered CASH—But 30 days is not any more.'
