Leaders For Youth Needed
The gieatct need in this countiy today is leaders
rfyoung people men and v omen Too few of the homes
ate meeting the need ol then young people either
Ihiough indlfkicnce oi lack of knowledge and undei
tlanding ol > oung people The schools influence ex
lends but a few houis n day for a pait of the yeai
The lest must be supplied by adult leaders who arc
willing to give their service and their gift of leadeiship
1o the young people of the community Many towns
which niise a big budget for a Chamber of Commerce
a fair a stock show oi a celebration each yeai would
jicrfoim a vastly gi eater service if they would raise a
tund to compensate some suitable adult leader to give
to the young people of the community the thing they
need and aie not getting adult companionship leadei
ship and understanding
Tiue not all young people in any community need
it but if we are fiank enough and honest enough to
look the facts in the face we know that theie arc many
in every community who do need this very thing if
they aie going to lealize the full potential possibilities
of their lives Measuied In tuims of tiue values the
life of one young pen on is worth moie to a community
and to the woild than all the stock shows community
home comings and band concerts that the community
can finance What we need Is a new sense of the
realisation of true values We need to learn that the
mot piecious thing to any community Is human chai
acter and lightly directed lives We need to leain that
this is not alone the iesponsibility of the family and
the school It is the responsibility of the whole communityThe Weaker Sex
Remember when women thought they had gained
equal rights with the men by being gi anted the right to
vote The war in our opinion has biought a greater
measuie of equality to women than the vote evei
brought Women aie entering into industiy by the thousands
working side by side with the men Not only
this but then woik is most excellent Not only do no
allowances hae to be made for the fact that they aie
women but they aie lecciving the same wages that
men doing the same woik aie lecciving They aie not
only excellent as electrical workeis weldeis piecision
instrument buildeis and aviatots but in many fields
heretofoie held exclusively by men Fiom all indications
the new Womens Aimy Auxiliaiy Coips now being
organized Is going to be a supenor organization and
is going to do an exceptionally fine piete df work
All of thee things measuie up to something They
indicate that they are going to have their effect upon
this country for years to come A new fieedom has
come to women a new vimoh What its effect will be
is interesting to speculate upon and difficult to predictMinute Editorials
There is a good deal being said about whether or
not theie will be a post war depression In our opinion
it all depends on whether or not we let things get
out of hand during the war If prices continue to climb
we will go into another tail spin just as we did following
the first World War If pi ices wages and spending
ate contioiled within toason there will be no postwar
depression Theie should be quite the opposite
a business revival
The state of unprcparedness with which we cnteicd
this war and whch has added so greatly to its cost
in men and measuie is the puce we must pay for the
isolationism that has seived to lull us into Insensibility
the past twenty year
Weekly Sermon
BY THOMAS HASTWELL
We hear a good deal these days of the kind of
world that we aie going to have after this war is over
Without exception thete predictions and these speculations
all show an optimistic tone None of them that
I have seen has had a pessimistic tinge Their authors
believe that the world of tomorrow is going to be abettor
world than we have known in the past They
believe that a lot of the wtongs and inequalities and
injustices that have come into being in the past are
going to be eliminated and in their place is going to
< ome a scheme of living and human relationships that
will bring to all mankind a larger and a better and
a fuller life When we consider all of the elements of
all of the nations that must be harmonized and the
great changes that must be made if this comes to pass
we realize the magnitude of the hope and the dream
That such a dream and such a vision does exist is in
my opinion a most hopeful sign It indicates that
Gods spirit Is at woik in the world in the hearts of
mm and even in the chaos of war and the cataclysmic
upheaval the mass mind and the mass conscience believes
that a better and a happier and a more peaceful
world is going to come out of this night

Business Should
Know Tax Cost
At Start of Year
uv rEonoi pick
To wt a colloquial cpiession
business in this country today is
behind the eightball We would
like someone to give us a logical
answer as to why business is compelled
to npeiatc without deUnite
knowledge as to Its cm tent tax
expense
Unsiness management is able to
figute its law material cost its
labor cost Its power cost its sale
cost its oveihcad cost etc Why
shouldnt that same management
know at the stall of tiny year
just what its tax cost lor that
year is to be
Stockholdeis rightfully demand
that they be furnished peiiodical
1y with iepoits as to the piogtcss
their companies aie making especially
as to piofits The S E C
and the public generally also aie
a bit inquisitive How in the
world can management make an
accurate lepoit on piogiess when
it does not know what one of its
chief expenses taxes is to be for
the cut lent year
Business is constantly admonished
to be thrifty to be careful
to budget expenses to above all
not to spend moie than its income
in other woids to conduct
itself on a safe and sound basis
How can it conduct itself on such
a basis when it is sublimely Ignorant
as to what one of its principal
costs Is to be
Every dictate of common sense
and fairness indicates that eveiy
business yes every individual
should know by January 1st of
each year exactly what the lates
of taxation ate to be for that
year The excuse given by certain
government officials that government
cannot estimate exactly how
much money it is going to need
is not a valid one
If Government weie to estimate
its needs and fix tax rates at the
stmt of the year and found nt the
end of the year it had undei estimated
its lequiiements then it
could fix tax rates for the following
year to take caie of the deficit

Rationin9 Will gj
Teach Lesson
In SelfDenial
BY FRANK DIXON
The people of America are having
their first experience of rationing
In the tire rationing and
sugar rationing Since It Is a new
experience it Is quite natural that
there arc many rough spots that
have to bo ironed out by those In
charge of its administration and
some adjustments have to bo made
by consumers
Due to the fact that we of this
country have always known plenty
and have seldom If ever had
the experience of doing with less
than an abundance the adjustments
are less easy than they
would be to a people to whom
scarcity Is the rule and abundance
the exception
It Is interesting I think to note
the several types of reaction with
which the ratinoing program is
received
One extreme is represented by
the Individual who at the outset
resents any interfeience on the
pait of his government regardless
of the purpose and reason back
of it in his personal affairs or
liberties as he chooses to call them
He Is mad resentful hostile and
is going to show the government
that It cant do this to him He
shows his temper to the registrar
and the members of the rationing
board and in a general way
makes a scene and a fool of himself
Then there Is the fellow who
is going to outsmart the government
He is going to show the
authorities that he can beat the
rules of the game He can chisel
on the government and his fellows
and get all of the rationed pio
ducts he wants He is not going
to deny himself for the government
the soldiers and the sailors
or his fellows He is going to get
his as they say even though it
is done by violating the letter
and spiiit of the law and is a
below the belt blow to his country
and his fellows
Contrasted to these two types
aie the gieat majoiity of patriotic
Amei leans who though inconvenienced
by the rationing pioginm
leel that it is designated for the
gieatest good to the greatest number
and have made up their
minds to iollow through and do
their lull pait to make the effort
succeed It Is interesting to note
their comments They are taking
it in the spirit of a game They
are happy to be able to make
some definite sacrifice towaid the
war effort and to feel because of
it that they have a real pait in
It They have entered into the
spiiit of their countrys fight for
its way of life When they drink
their morning cup of coffee ot
eat their morning dish of ceieal
or their deseit in which the sugar
has been reduced its lack of sweetness
is compensated for by the
thought that their selfdenial is
just that much of a contribution
to tlie cause of victoiy
One family has adopted the
practice of weighing out the weeks
allotment of sugar each Monday
morning and making an effort
throughout the week to see how
little Is used and how much can
be left over at the end of the
week It brings a new thought to
the meals in a home where self
dcnloi has never before been
known It is having a real value
to the family beyond the mete
saving of a few ounces of sugar
This it seems to me is going
to be one of the good things that
will come out of the rationing pro
giam We of this country have
known abundance so long that we
have fot gotten what selfdenial KIt
has almost disappeared from
the lives of many A few months
of stringent intioning may waken
in the minds of tho people of this
country a new appreciation of
what they have in this country
and inspiie a new desire for gong
allout to preserve it in this
war
The first of the month generally
ptoduces those who insist in
bunging sordid financial matters

Wc believe Tulia merchants attd outlying rural
communities arc far ahead of many folks when It comes
to cooperating in the various campaigns for victory
Wo hope they will continue to live up to this belief in
drives to come

If you think its rubber take tt to your nearest
filling station That is the slogan adopted throughout
the nation since the huge campaign for old lubber began
Sunday at midnight Remember that the more you
bring in the less possibility there is of gas rationing
in this country
Thousands of women in Texas have ptofited lrom
first aid and home nursing courses this year Tulia ana
Swisher County women aie just now getting the
fit of the nursing couisc being conducted by Mrs
bent C I
Stewart Although the course is still in its infancy here
those taking it admit having already learned a great
deal The women are required to keep a notebook containing
magazine articles on nutritive foods diseases
posture rationing consumer buying and many othei
tilings pertaining to a happier home with healthier occupants
So If any of you have old magazines to spate
it would be appi eclated if you offered them to members
of the classes for use in this work

The old record was loweied by an hour After reading

hours because he had too much gasoline aboard to at
