The Great Depression—that is what
ft seems to us.
After awhile, we shall begin to
kok up its records, and see what sort
•fif things it did to us.
We shall And that many more peo
ple went to the public libraries.
That seems a natural result of un
employment.
It suggests what might take place
il the people had more leisude—more
time of their own as a result of
shorter work time.
It is reported that there were more
prosecutions of persons violating the
laws governing freedom of speech.
Two things here: Idle folks have
ttme to think, and to talk out in pub
lic what they are thinking.
And then, those who prosecute for
such matters, seem to have been ner
vous about something.

We'll Find Out Later :.
What BigiSlump Did to Us
After all, what does a little talk,
more or less, matter?
But there has been a fear of "what
it might lead to!"
Possibly—possibly—there's always
chance In changes.

Divorces seem to have been dis
couraged.
It is hard to get alimoney when
there is no money to pay it.
Lawyers don't like to start a los
ing case—losing money.
But marriages have been discour
aged, too.
There is more skepticism about
"two can live as cheap as one."
The upshot of it all is also a lower
birth rate.
There will be a big increase in the
junk piles, afterward.
Fifty per cent of our industrial
plant is obsolete.

But now we are being told that
there has been a tremendous waste
also in our marketing methods.
The engineers are studying market
ing processes.
They are taking a drug store apart
to see what makes it click-
When it does click.
They are learning what kind of
signs and displays to put in the win
dows, so that you will be unable to
go by without going in.
There seems to be a way to make
you pay 49 cents for an article which
you would let alone at 25 cents.
"S. A." used to stand for. se ap
peal.
But from now on look out for "sales
appeal."
City governments are learning les
sons about tax money, and about how
not to spend it.
Bootleggers have learned a lot.
But that is nothing to what they
have taught the rest of us!
Would you have believed that
Americans cared so little for law?
Many have come to believe, with
A1 Capone, that "Law is just tricks."
If that is true—well, we need some
thing else to take its place.

THE BUTLER COUNTY PRESS,
The stage whiskers and wigs are
being taken off of international
'friendships," too.
"Preparedness" may come to mean
—tariffs.
It is claimed that even .tariffs are
costly.
We are just waking up to the om*
niterrific cost of wars.
We say that we want no more wars,
But we seem perfectly willing for
some other folks to have them! 1
Well, the world always looks differ
ent after a hard storm.—International
Labor News Service.
IN THIS EMERGENCY!
It has been said repeatedly that if
the work-week were sufficiently
shortened we could end unemploy
ment.
If we had a maximum work-week
of 30 hours, divided into five 6-hour
days, the national unemployment
problem would fade into nothingness.
Why not, then, have a 30-hour
week
Why not a great movement to see
to it that on a given day no man or
woman in America agrees to work
more than 30 hours a week?
In this emergency are not drastic
measures warranted?
Hunger is drastic. Is it too much
that remedy be drastic?
What say we to this suggestion?
What say we as we look ahead to a
winter of greater despair than we
have yet known?
BE YE UNION BUILDERS
These are the days when the non
union worker is kicked around the
lot.
These are the days when the de
fenseless have need of defense anc!

Is civilized man less keen in his

estimate. They can be invincible.

A very small boy with a very large
bundle of papers under his arm was
trudging along the street.
"Don't all those papers tire you,

"Naw. I don't read them," replied
the boy.

Enjoying Good
Is largely a matter of food. To eat good food is a matter of good judgment. MILK
is the most perfect food known to the human race, and nations who are the most ad
vanced are the greatest MILK DRINKERS. Milk contains all the elements for body
building and repair, including fats, proteids and mineral salts and those indescribable
elements called vitamines.
We distribute MILK and its products, CREAM, COTTAGE CHEESE, BUTTER
MILK, and ICE CREAM. We pasteurize these for your protection, as health author
ities are agreed that pasteurization is necessary for public health, at the same time the
rich flavor of the milk is retained. You will always tell our MILK and its products by
their GOOD FLAVOR.
OUR SERVICE to you consists in HANDLING and PASTEURIZING and DE
LIVERING to your door the raw milk the farmer produces.

When there is employment, the
labor union takes care of its mem
