BUSTITOWN Albert Hamilton was in Effie on Sat urday. Orin Patrow went to Grand Rapids on Monday. Tom Brady is busy these days peel ing posts. Wm. Dachtler rode his horse to Effie on Saturday. Fred Schoen was a business caller in Effie Saturday. Miss Alys Gustafson was a Bigfork visitor on Saturday. Frank DeShaw transacted business in Effie on Saturday. Myron Patrow walked to Effie Mon day, returning on Tuesday. Amos Randall was hauling hay from Mrs. Hattie Rahier's place on Saturday.

Halvor Akhus was an out-going pas senger on Saturday. He will visit his parents who live in the western part of the state. We understand that some of the Bustitown and Effie young people took a somewhat chilly bath in the Bigfork river Sunday. We made the statement two or three weeks ago that Ivan Harrington and family were moving to Bigfork and were going to live on the Louis Pinette plaqe. We were misinformed as to theii> intentions. An informal gathering of settlers met at the Busticogan school house on Sunday, April 18.

A CERTAIN man in New York filled out his income tax report. It showed an income so large that his tax was 53%. And his total gifts to church and char ity for the year were $l4B. Think of it—thousands spent for luxuries and pleasure for himself; and $l4B to leave the world a little better than he found it! Most of us do better than that; but not so very much better. Our average daily gift for all church causes is —less than we spend for daily papers —less than a local telephone call —less than a third of the day’s car fare —less than 3 cents a day No wonder that 80% of the ministers of America are paid less than S2O a week. No wonder that the church hospitals turn away thousands of sick people a year. No wonder that China has only one doctor for every 400,000 people. No wonder that every church board and chanty society is forever meeting deficits, forever passing the hat. It isn't because we are selfish; it isn’t because we don’t want to help. If s just because no one has ever put up a great big program to us, and asked us to think of the work of the church in a systematic businesslike way. The Interchurch World Movement represents the united program of thirty denominations. They have surveyed their whole task, no business could have done it better. They have budgeted their needs; no business could have a more scientific budget. They have united to prevent the possibility of waste and duplication. At least a million dol lars will be saved by the fact that thirty individual cam paigns are joined in one united effort. And they come to the men or women who love America •—to you — this week asking you to use them as the chan nel through which a certain definite part of your income can be be applied to make this a better world. Only you can determine what part of your income that should be. It’s a good time right now to answer that question. We’re passing through the world just once; how much better will the world be because you passed through?

The Dairy Cow Governor Lowden, of Illinois, recently said: ‘‘The cow is a most wonderful laboratory. She takes the grasses of the pasture, and the roughage of the field, and converts them into the most perfect food for man. In that food there is a mysterious something which scientists have found essential to the highest health of the human race, and which can be found nowhere else. Men have sought for centuries the fabled Fountain of Youth. The nearest approach to that fountain which has yet been discovered is the udder of the cow. Without her milk, children languish, the vigor of the adult declines, and the vitality of the human race runs low.” Scientific dairying will bring millions of added wealth to this locality, as it has brought millions to the timber and prairie lands of Northern Wisconsin and Michigan. Remember this strong Bank stands ready to help all our worthy farmers finance the purchase of good dairy stock. The First National Bank Officers F. P. SHELDON, President A. G. WEDGE.
