I All t A Matter Of Habit ^^^^mmmtm An Automatic Heart On the Hot Iron The Word of a Ftiend Plenty ol Good Habits AN EDITORIAL ON BUYING AN is a creature of habit. Some of his habits are good and some of them are bad. Most of them are good, because the human animal is so delicate an organism that there has to be a Re- publican majority of good habits to keep him going. In fact, good habits are not only an economy of effort—making it possible to accomplish more with less attention and less ef- fort of the will—they are also the fundamental pre- suppositions that make life at all possible. The heart has a good habit of pumping blood without your having to think about it. The lungs have a good habit of supplying the system with oxygen. The nerves have a good habit of sending instan- taneous messages to the brain about what is hap- pening to you. A The nerves have .such w good habits that when they send the message to your brain that your hand has touched pmething to hot {hey do not Wait for the General Staff in your head N to call a conference of your numerous impulses and inhibitions to determ- ine whether or not to re- move the hand from the hot object. Your nerves have a habit of sending back a message about what to do right away. The same thing holds true of affairs on a higher plane. A man keeps his con- tracts, pays his bills, sup- ports his family, votes and goes through all the ord- inary actions of daily life as a citizen and civilized human being because he has these good habits, and he leads a good life when lie has good habits. PA man buys largely as u matter of habit. He buys at a place he likes because he is well * treated and he finds the values satisfactory. More likely than not, the word of a friend or the printed word of a friendly adver- tisement got him there to begin with. And the store where he buys lets him know about any special sales or stocks, pleasantly aud effectively, because they have the habit of telling him such things through their ad- vertising, aud he has the habit of noting what they say because he has the habit of reading adver- tisements with interest W and confidence. The American people are a friendly, good-nat- ured race. While we have enough bad habits, we also ean look ourselves over impartially and see that we have some good ones. Pre-eminently charac- teristic of us is our habit- ual interest in and appre- ciation of advertising. We know that this in- terest is a good habit be- cause we know what it can do and has done for every one of us. Advertising itself is a K good habit. In fact, advertising and reading advertising are two of the best American hafriU.

Walsefer Johnson. a Mr. Bennett made an a'fdress, taking for his theme the objects of the Men's Bible Class in the church life. Warren Emens, vice president, said a few words also. Earl Hampton, of Pittsburg.

Not only the boys but look at the girls who frequent the local dance halls dancing with moral lep- ers. This is no hearsay for I have witnessed this disgraceful condition in the Jamesburg dance halls. How can we expect the youth to become Christians when the parents do not even know how to pray.

Plenty ol Good Habits

AN EDITORIAL ON BUYING

AN is a creature of habit. Some of

his habits are good and some of them are bad. Most of them are good, because the human animal is so delicate an organism that there has to be a Re- publican majority of good habits to keep him going.

In fact, good habits are

not only an economy of

effort—making it possible to accomplish more with less attention and less ef- fort of the will—they are

also the fundamental pre- suppositions that make life at all possible.

The heart has a good habit of pumping blood without your having to think about it.

The lungs have a good habit of supplying the system with oxygen.

The nerves have a good habit of sending instan- taneous messages to the

brain about what is hap- pening to you.

A The nerves have .such w

good habits that when

they send the message to

your brain that your hand has touched ■ pmething to hot {hey do not Wait for the General Staff in your head

N to call a conference of your numerous impulses and inhibitions to determ- ine whether or not to re-

move the hand from the hot object. Your nerves

have a habit of sending back a message about what to do right away.

The same thing holds true of affairs on a higher plane.

A man keeps his con-

tracts, pays his bills, sup-

ports his family, votes and

goes through all the ord- inary actions of daily life as a citizen and civilized human being because he

has these good habits, and he leads a good life when lie has good habits.

PA man buys largely as u

matter of habit.

He buys at a place he likes because he is well *

treated and he finds the values satisfactory. More likely than not, the word of a friend or the printed word of a friendly adver- tisement got him there to

begin with.

And the store where he

buys lets him know about any special sales or stocks, pleasantly aud effectively, because they have the habit of telling him such things through their ad- vertising, aud he has the

habit of noting what they say because he has the habit of reading adver- tisements with interest

W and confidence.

The American people are a friendly, good-nat- ured race. While we have

enough bad habits, we also ean look ourselves over

impartially and see that

we have some good ones.

Pre-eminently charac- teristic of us is our habit- ual interest in and appre- ciation of advertising.

We know that this in- terest is a good habit be- cause we know what it can do and has done for

every one of us.

Advertising itself is a

K good habit. In fact, advertising and

reading advertising are

two of the best American hafriU.

Methodist Church Filled With Good Cheer When Ladies’ Class Serve Supper

— *

fBy Evening New* Correspondent.! JAME8BCRG. March 2*.—The

Sunday-school rooms of the James- burg Methodist church were respen- dant with color and good cheer on

Friday night when nearly a hun- dred members of the Ladies' Bible Class, members of the Reliance Bible Class, were given a banquet.

Stanley Bennett, President of the Men's Bible Class was the toastmas- ter. The opening number was a

prayer by the pastor. Rev. Walsefer Johnson. a

Mr. Bennett made an a'fdress, taking for his theme the objects of the Men's Bible Class in the church life. Warren Emens, vice president, said a few words also.

Earl Hampton, of Pittsburg. Pa the first president of the class, was reminescent in his remarks and told of its formation with five mem-

bers in 1917 until now the average attendance is past forty men. Ben- jamin Fouratt. the second president, was also present as was Ray M. Hampton, making an unusual record of having all the presidents of the class present since its inception. Mr. Hampton said that the non-atten- dance of the wives of members can be attributed as the real cause of the men not becoming affiliated in the church work.

Assistant superintendent of the Sunday-school, Frank M. Denton, Rev. J. B. Shaw, retiring pastor, and Rev. Wolsefer Johnson, present pas- tor, made a short address on the work for a successful Bible class.

Howard VahDyke, acting superin- tendent of the Sunday-schools of the Presbyterian church, was the main speaker of the evening and he

brought all to a realization of the vices that the church-workers have to contend with. He said that Christians are not made overnight, but only after an intensive campaign.

“See the conditions that confront us.” said the speaker, "have you ever

f noticed the youth of Jamesburg standing on the corners on a Sunday

r with the*r hats cocked on the side of their heads, a cigarette in their mouth. Not only the boys but look at the girls who frequent the local dance halls dancing with moral lep- ers. This is no hearsay for I have witnessed this disgraceful condition in the Jamesburg dance halls. How can we expect the youth to become Christians when the parents do not even know how to pray.

William C. Crosby, superintendent for over thirty years of the Method- ist Sunday-schools, made a few re-

marks. Oliver Roden presided at the piano. The following were present: Mr. and Mrs. William C. Crosby.

Mr. and Mrs. Howard Van Dyke. Mr. and Mrs. John Taylor, Rev. and Mrs. J. B. Shaw. Mr. and Mrs. How- ard Applegate, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Urstedt. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Mount.
