There is a custom at the
Lions club luncheons, when
Jesse Stanford refuses to car-
ry the piano notes any linger
without a payment, for the tail
twister to gouge a dime out
of every one present, for any
or no reason at all, charging
some infraction of the Magna
Carta After taking note, we
have concluded this is a mis-
take. It’s good for the club
treasury, but hard on the din-
ing room management. There
are too many Scotchmen as
members, such as McEntire,
McCracken, McLean, McCur-
dy, or Murchison. We observe
that every time these Scotch-
men get fined, they start eat-
ing again and continue until
ten cents more of food has
been consumed. It is the hotel
that is paying mostly for the
piano.

In the post office figures
published last week in The
Brand, showing a steady ex-
pansion in every department,
there is one phase that reflects
a harmful condition. From
July 1, 1929. to .Tune .‘10, 1930,
rash received from money or-
ders ran over $09,000, and for
the past five years the total
has reached $275,000. For the
most part this represents re-
tail buying outside of our ter-
ritory. This does not mean that
had everyone traded at home
we would have in circulation
among ourselves $275,000 more
—for our home merchants
must send out the biggest per
cent of a dollar received for
manufactured products to re-
gtock their shelves Unite ap-

It m very gratifying to note
that aeveral property owners
are removing their dead and
dying loeuat trees, inevitable
vietima of the borers. It is re-
