manufacturer, was approached
by a man who addressed him:
"Pardon me, Mr. Wrigley, but
do you know you're wasting a lot
of money ?" i
-Mr. Wrigley, always anxious
to learn anything about his busi-
ness, asked in return, "How?"
"Why, in advertising!" the
man replied. "Your product is
so well known you don't need to
advertise!"
"My good man," Mr. Wrigley
answered him, "do you know
what would happen if we were to
cut the engine off from this train?"
"The train would coast along a
while and stop, I, suppose."
"Exactly," implied Mr. Wrigley,
"and that's just what my busi-
ness would do if I cjit off advert-
ising. Adverrising is the engine
that furnishes the motive power
for my business."—The Aftierican
Press.
From Arizona.
The invincible Tom Lewis and
family, former citizens of the
Busy Town arrived Sunday to
visit at the home of Don Long
and family at this place
besides other friends in and
around Follett.
This good family moved from
our midst about a year ago and

Short time.
Fourth of July
The Fourth Of July>^is here
again. Don't burn your fingers,
and play "safty first." Just
think, it over. Take time to
think what the glorious old an-
niversary really stands for! In-
dependence! The history of man
from the days of long ago, when
he dwelt in caves and wore only
the skins of the wild animals
he killed, reflects the struggle for
independence and freedom of ac-
tion. Did you ever stop to think
that you can not be free if you
do not grant the "other fellows"
the right to be free? One can
enjoy his RIGHTS only when
he refrains from invading the
RICH IS of the other fellow. If
lyouwantto exercise the privi-
ege of free speech, you must be
willing to grant the other fellow
| the same privilege. Some per-
' sons beleave that freedom and
liberty is ' just doing what, they
want to." It isn't. Freedom
and Liberty are possible only
where every man has a proper
regard for the freedom and lib-
erty of every other man.

The Panhandle Lumber Com-
pany, living up to their slogan,
"our aim is to help improve the
Panhandle," will soon open a
yard at Wawaka, the first station
east of Spearman, on the Spear-
man branch. We understand
that arrangements have been
made for lots and that work on
the office buildings and lumber
sheds will be begun about July 1.
It i^also reported^that the Pan-
handle has a large stoclc of build-
ing material enroute to Wawaka
at this time and will open up a
complete stock in all lines hand-
led in their many yards within
the next few weeks. Wawaka is
a prosperous community, and a x
lumber yard there will do a nice
business. We have not learned
who will have charge of this new
business for the Panhandle Lum-
ber Company.—Spearman Re-
porter.
