raw TOWNS SLIP BUT OTHERS DO MREJUSDIESS

Sociologist Paints a Bright Future for Towns of

1,000 to 10,000.

W hile the new census places Chatsworth slightly below the 1,000 class towns In point of population the follow ing story may be of inter­est.

American ham lets and sm all vil­lages may be destined for the dis­card, but towns of 1,000 to 10,000 populaUon are doing more business than ever In the opinion of Dr. C. J. Qalpln, agricultural sociologist o f the D. S. bureau of agricultural econ­omies, who' addressed the Advertising FederaUon of America at W ashing­ton May 20.

"Although the general trend,” he said, “has been for farm ers to sh ift their buying from stores a t country crossroads. In ham lets, and In sm all villages, to larger retail trading cen­ters, the sh ift In farm er buying to tow ns ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 in populaUon is Increasing the trade area of these towns. Increasing the trade and Increasing their purchas­ing fulcrum .”

Doctor Qalpln gave It as h is opin­ion that the decline of the hamlet and sm all village Is the result both o f a decreasing farm populaUon and of the higher standard of farm living in recent years. H e said that a l­though the farm population has de­creased by four milUon persons since 1820, the gross cash incom e from ag- grlculture of the tw enty-seven mil- lion farm populaUon today Is the sam e— ten billion dollars a year— as that o f the thirty-one m illion farm people ten years ago.

Seeks B etter Choice o f Goods“The American farm er,” Doctor

Qalpln said, "is no longer satisfied w ith fam ily consum ption In the na­ture of a minimum of subsistence goods. H e demands tor h im self and children parity In standard of liv ­ing. H is sh ift to a larger trade cen­ter m eans that he Is seeking a high­er grade, and a w ider variety and a better choice of all kinds of goods.

“T his does not mean th at farm ­ers are spending the bulk of their money In cities over 10,000 In popu­laUon. The bulk of farm ers' In­come Is now spent, and w ill be for a generation. In farm ers’ tow ns with a population range from 1,000 to 10,000 . The well-to-do farmer, like th e w ell-to-do townsm an, has alw ays made certain purchases in large c i­ties, and this practice w ill continue, but the bulk of the buying by both the farmer and th e townsman w ill be at home, where they have per­sonal relations and many social and economic tie s .”

These Towns Are GrowingDr. Qalpin labeled as unwarranted

the assumption “that the 1930 cen­sus w ill Bhow decreased enum era­tions In incorporated villages and towns sm aller than 10,000 popula­tion. It 13 expected, however,” he added, “that the 1930 census w ill show a decline In many ham lets and unincorporated villages, and In very sm all Incorporated villages.

“There w ill be Individual cases of decrease, as usual, in Incorporated tow ns up to 10,000” he said, “and some w hole counties w ill undoubt­edly reflect in an unusual degree the unusual agrarian disturbance of th e la st ten years; but the unusual movem ent of farm population, to the same towns and villages w ill com­pensate. it Is natural to suppose, for unusual movements from the farm ­ers' towns to larger centers.

"The farm' population w ill turn out to be thinner; the hamlet and ■mall village population w ill also be thinner; but the large v illage and town population w ill hold Ha own, and probably w ill Increase enough to make up the loss in the other two element^.

ILLINOIS CENTRALPLANS A CHANGE IN

LOCAL TRAIN SERVICE

The Illinois Central railroad Is contem plating changing the train service on the Kankakeo-Bloom ing- ton division.

Two officials of the road stopped In Chatsworth Monday morning to confer w ith the local postm aster as to what effect the proposed change would have on the Chatsworth mall service. They claim that the one passenger-m all train that goes south through Chatsworth at 8 :05 a t night and returns in the morning at 7:42 Is not only not paying but losing the company about |6 0 0 a month due to light passenger and express bus­iness.

The road wants to try reversing the schedule — that Is they would start the train out of Kankakee in the m orning and pass Chatsworth along about 9 :30 and reach Bloom ­ington about 11. Then start the train back about 3 o ’clock and reach Chatsworth about 4 :30 and Kanka­kee at 6. There would be connec­tion at Kankakee In the morning from Chicago and the evening train would connect at Kankakee with a Chicago train. As th is train brings the bulk of th e m all for Chatsworth, especially in the m orning, the change m ight seriously a ffect th e local m all service. The Illinois Central would partially offset the taking oft o f the northbound morning train by start­ing th e local frd g h t w ith a passen­ger ooach attached out of B loom ing­ton around 6 o'clock in th e moaning and hurry it along so as to reach Chatsworth around 9 :15 and carry a closed pouch for mail, and ex­press.

I f Chatsworth depended on the morning proposed south bound train to bring the Chicago mall and the newspapers the rural carriers would either leave w ithout the bulk of their I m all or be held up at the postoffice 1 until about 10 o ’clock Instead o f 1 leaving at 8 :30 as a t present. It seem s probable, however, that If the change is made that the bulk of t h e ' letter m all and newspapers wouldI be routed out of Chicago by an early m orning train to lim an Instead of Bloom ington as at present, and reaeh Chatsworth at 7 :30 over the star route. It would probably slow up i the parcel post as that would like­ly com e la the m iddle o f the fore­noon.

The B accalaureate service which was held in the High School A ud it­orium last Sunday evening. May 25. was well a ttended . This was tilt first tim e the g raduating class of ’:’!<■! appeared in their caps and gowns.I and was. of course, a m em orable oc­casion for them . W hile Miss Elina Shafer played the processional, the solemnly clad seniors m arched to th e ir appointed chairs, a fte r which the Rev. Mr. Schm itt gave the in ­vocation and read th e Scrip ture.

A mixed chorus u nder the d irec­tion of Miss W illiam s gave two se ­lections “ He Leadeth Me" all 1 “ Rock of A ges". This was the first tim e we have had a mixed chorus on any of ou r program s and we hope th a t we may be able to have one again next year.

The evening 's m essage was given by th e Rev. A. E. K alkw arf, the Lu­theran m inister. It was an in sp ir­ing m essage to those for whom It was given.

Rev. Mr. K alkw arf chose as his text I Sam uel 3:1(1-— “Then Samuel answ ered. ‘Speak, Lord, for thy ser­van t h e a re th '.” He dw elt firs t on the fact th a t decision was shown in th is speech of Sam uel’s. Decisions m ust be m ade in ou r every day life; sm all decisions and im portant decis ions, all alike, each one as im portan t as the o ther. If we m ake the righ t decisions ou r lives will be a success. But before we can m ake the righ t decisions th ere m ust be a w illing­ness to serve. This too was por­trayed In th e text. W e can’t always work fo r ourselves and expect to find success com ing to m eet us, but m ust work and he w illing to help others.

Follow ing the address. Rev. Ack­erm an pronounced th e benediction, and th e seniors preceded the con ­gregation to the door. Mr. G. F B ennett, president of the Board of E ducation, presided.

— T —MY THOUGHTS UPON LEAVING

HIGH SCHOOLG raduation from high school clos­

es an o th e r chap te r In the “book of life .” It Is not w ithout a feeling of regret th a t we linger over the last few pages and try to g rasp th e ir full significance. The h a rd es t th ing is to p art from those associates whom we have known so In tim ately— per­haps never to see again or very- in- requently . We feel like the lilt tle boy in th e story “T he L ast C lass.’’ when every th ing cam e to his mind so vividly.

B ut th e feeling of reg re t Is only m om entary—-we would not desire to spend all our lives in high school. We are anxious for new things. We w ant to try ourselves at other things. W e feel years older. We feel that the most carefree days of our life are past and that we are ready to start som ething new— yet. ■re we? Isn't life quite the same now as it ever w ill be? Is not each day, each year, th e start of som e­thing new?

These are queer, pathetic, funny, puttied days — these days of auto­graph books sad th e last minute hurry and scurry. Such a funny, lonely, empty feeling In your stom ­ach or your haart or som e pi sea.

If congress will use Us brains and the nation's resources to keep com peteut workers busy. It need not worry about any imported Russian "Red program.”

If it doesn't keep American work­ers busy, it limy have u "red pro­gram," homemade, more dangerous than anything ever devised.

The Illinois d epartm en t of public health a rgues th a t bus drivers should be requ ired to tak e ju s t as severe physical exam inations as locom otive engineers, sea cap ta ins, o r a irp lane pilots. Bus drivers, i t is asserted , have g rea t responsibility to r the safety of passengers. Such drivers may have physical a ilm en ts which may im pair vision or c rea te erro rs of judgm ent in a crisis. The ab­sence of such defects is regarded as an essen tia l qualifica tion in em ­ploym ent of such men. T here a re now 20,00u passenger buses in Illi­nois and which ca rry hundreds of thousands of pa trons. Some buses travel a t a high ra te of speed. In view of the g rea t Increase tn the num ber of such vehicles and num er­ous d is tressing accidents of the past year, the s ta te hea lth departm en t believes th a t th e ir safety ag ita tio n is timely.

The "Red" movement in t ’hiiui. a t­tributed to Russia, worries the Nan­king government aud threatens per­manent disturbance and war.

WHY WE GIVE ALMS

C HARITY ami giving alms is nn undent virtue. It lias been prac­

ticed ever *luce man first lottmed to share his food and shelter with his fellow man In wind.

The most obvious motive for giv­ing alms Is to relieve need and differ­ing. Xo doubt liuinan sympathy and fellow feeling play un im portant part. Those who ure not very far removed from the poor beggar are more sym­pathetic and give alms while the rich man Is more likely to give to institu­tions m tlier than to iiiiliviiluala His sympathy is hum anitarian rather than personal.

We also give alius tor the satisfac­tion that comes from doing something for somebody else. Unconsciously we are somewhat elated to find ■ person In less favorable circumstances, and are glad to give him something for making us feel better than we did.

With some there is the purely mer­cenary motive of giving In order to get something In return us expressed In the saying thul If you cast your bread on the w aters It will return to you nfter many days. Reward in heav­en if not on this earth is a strong mo­tive for giving nlms to those who think of heaven ns a place of reward for good deeds to tlielr fellows on the earth.

But by fa r the strongest motive for giving alms although the least con­scious one Is that of giving In order to relieve ourselves of nn emotionally unpleasant situation. Tin* beggar lias made us suffer by a kind of physical and reflexive sympathy, and apparent­ly tlie only way to allay that feeling is to give the poor devil something and go away satisfied that you have done your part. Otherwise your con­science will trouble you. Those plead­ing eyes, or the crippled body will haunt you. For tills reason ttie beg­gars usually nppear pitiful enough to make It worth our while to give most generously.

R etu rn books prom ptly. T here a re severa l ways in w hich those who use th e lib ra ry can help to give b e t­te r service and here a re two of them :

1. By re tu rn in g books when th rough w ith them as prom ptly as possible.

2nd. By notify ing the lib rary prom ptly to cancel requests to re-

- serve books when those books a re no longer w anted. F a ilu re to do th is deprives o thers of the use of th e books unnecessarily .

E ncourage your ch ild ren to read. A braham Lincoln cam e from a com ­m unity much sm aller than th is bu t he m ade use of a few well chosen books and developed a m ind tha t im pressed Itself upon th e nations of th e w orld. Help your ch ild ren to road wisely and well th a t th e fu tu re may he the irs . Good hooks will m ake th e sun shine on dark days and will give wings to m any a lagging hour.

Jh Pnriit of Cortl}uionnoI'Y'I F the earthworms were to publish a magazine, some lO j dramatic success stories would be recorded.

It would tell, for example, the remarkable career of JohnG. Worm. Born of humble parents, in dark surroundings, hemanaged by his own effort to push himself up to the surface.There he was spied by Fortune in the form of a robin, whichsnatched him high into the clouds. His moment of elevationwas brief, but while it lasted the vision was splendid.*. * i *■ t i • r • • « trip c - f . . . »

It would tell of Frederick L. Worm, who was workingalong quietly one day when an upheaval tossed him to fame and glory. Success was attended by pain, as is often the case. He was impaled u(>on a fishhook and carried away to be immersed in a strange element. There his life ended, but not before he had done the biggest job ever achieved by any mem­ber of his family. The fortune he landed devoured him, but it was a big fortune. ^

To the other worms these stories might be discouraging. “Fame is for the few," they would say. “Nothing ever hap­pens to us. We just stir aroutid awhile and die.”

It would surprise them to know that a book was written about worms by the great scientist Darwin. Their surprise would be intensified if they were to learn that this book makes no mention of the exceptional members of their tribe. The few worms that are carried into the clouds, or succeed in landing big fish, are dismissed by him as of small impor­tance.

But the great mass of unknown worms, who spend their whole lives beneath the surface of observation, he hails as the most important creatures in the world.

If for one year they should cease their industrious diges­tion of the leaf mold and their incessant stirring of the ground, no crops would grow, and animals and men woulddie.

I think that Darwin’s book on earthworms should be m part of all education, along with the inspiring biographies of the great. It would tend to teach us humility. We human beings who walk so proudly as monarchs of the world—what are we. anyway ? Beneficiaries of the worms, without whose leave we could not live a year.

As for fame, it is stimulating, and lifts the spirit of the crowd. But shall we despair because to most of us it is denied?

Beneath the surface life is carried forward by the sustained loyalty of the mass. And who shall doubt that there are Purposes as far beyond our reckoning as our lives—which they n\ake possible—are beyond the vision of the worms? >

Rev. Sam uel D . Price, D. D .

___ ® M|jr«.0< tho#e “ * wk1 *bo,rt Jerusalem put o ff hearing Jesus thatT uesday afternoon w hen H e addressed a group on the Mount of Olives

forfeited their last chance of being in H is audience. During the morn­in g many listened w hile Herodians. Pharisees and Sadducees tried to get the best o f H im in argum ent when in the vicinity o f the Temple. Then the m eeting place was changed to the slope on the other side of the Kedron ▼alley that overlooked Jerusalem. Though arrest w as only a few days off J**u* f*j*d to include friend and foe alike in H is m essages that all possible good m ight come to them, both in the immediate present and likew ise in d ie future that could dot be avoided.

One of the clear teachings of the Bible had special emphasis in the •object matter that w as presented in the form of a parable. Jesus was the

going into a far country.” In tim e H e would com e back whither H e aw ay and call for an audit of a ll that each had meanwhile been blessed

w ith. M any, in their interpretation of the Bible, declare that Jesus w ill return to the earth in a Second A d v en t The tim e is still unknown. In the early apostolic church some thought the Return w as close at hand and they were not preparing to care for the real work of living as they.should. T o correct this error Paul wrote II Thessalonians. T he Jews waited long for the First Advent and the Christian Church is still looking forward to the Second Advent, w hich will surely take place.

R eally great values w ere entrusted to servants and slaves in the Orient. A n incident in fiction is the responsibility of Sim onides in "Ben H ur,” and he so traded as to make the son of H ur the richest man in the world. Fromooe to five talents w ere entrusted, in the parable, to three servants. Eventhe man w ho received ooe talent had a considerable responsibility for the value w as approximately $2,000, which would represent about $20,000 to-day. In tim e the Lord returned and demanded an accounting. Through shrewd­ness and industry the five and tw o talents had been doubled and due com­mendation w as accorded. T he man w ho had only one talent dw elt on the Idea of “only” rather than on the value that was in hand. H e did not even begin to make good but hid the amount in the earth. The excuse hepresents when called to the audit is far from a reason. H e had a fineopportunity and failed completely.

E very one has at least one talent and most o f us have more than the one, if w e w ill be honest in evaluating what powers and opportunities have been given u s by our Lord. Because w e may have only one is no reason for not using it to the utmost. The brightest saying found in the preparation for this lesson study is that an engine o f one cat power used continuously Is far better than ooe o f forty horse power standing idle alt the time. E x ­cuses w ill never help any when the tim e comes to stand and deliver. A s humans equipped w ith material and spiritual things w e must be ready for the Judgement which is ahead of every one. I f w e do our bit and our best there w ill be g lorious jo y when, in the final accounting, the Golden T ext for to-day is pronounced upon us: “W ell done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things. I will set thee over many th in g s; enter thou into the jo y of thy Lord,” M atthew 2 5 :21.

Some of th e criticism is honest, I nut la te r when som e d ishonest. Some com es from | decline In the

In an effo rt to prevent any fu r th e r! serious decline in th e s e com m odity

tin- Farm Board offered (o loan lo co-operatives f l .2 5 a bushel on w heal anil 16 cen;s a pound on cotton w ith the custom ary g rade, va­riety and fre igh t d ifferen tia ls to the various term inal m arkets. Tills proved effective for several m onths,

It is a g igan tic Job which the F arm B oard has u n dertaken . It will take a g rea t deal of tim e to get the whole system w ork ing nationally , and th e re doubtless w ill be many m istakes m ade. So fa r only five national cooperative sales agencies have been fu lly set up. They ar> in grain , cotton , wool and m ohair, beans and livestock. F a rm er o rgan­izations in te rested in o th e r crops a re still at w ork, u nder the guidance of the B oard , try ing to perfect th e ir sales agencies.

M eantim e, some fa rm e r groups a re d e libera te ly stay ing out. The F a rm ers ' Union is one of those, in sp ite of th e fact th a t C. E. H ull, presiden t of the Union, is also presi­den t of th e F arm ers N ational Grain C orporation , th e national w heat co­operative u n d e r th e F arm Board.

T here a re o th e r s im ila r sectional and. som e som etim es, personal differences am ong the farm ers of th e nation as a whole. B u t those differences, the F arm B oard officials believe, will be ironed ou t, and , as tim e goes on and th e co-operative m arke ting plan proves Itself in p ractice, th e p resent objections w ill be fo rgo tten .

GRADUATION TIMECommencement time is a season of pleasurable

thrills for those being presented with diplomas and those most interested in the graduates.

The students completing their courses have ev­ery reason to take pride in the possession of their certificates of better preparation for life’s work. They, too, have every reason to be glad they have have had the privilege of such associations as have come to them through their schools. They have formed friendships that will last as long as life— not only with fellow students but with teachers who have grown to love them through service to them.

To all Chatsworth Township High School grad­uates, we extend hearty congratulations.

Here’s How One Man Can Do Two Men’s

Work

John m. riseENDS LIFE \

A GUN TUIYou don’t need a large acreage of corn to justify the

purchase of a McCormick-Deering rtvo-row cultivator. About the most expensive item on a farm nowadays is la­bor. One man on a McCormick-Deering two-row will do as much work as two men with single-row cultivators. If you hire help, a two-row will cut your cultivating costs in two. If you do the work yourself, you can get it done in

just one-half the time and you will be able to get your cul­tivating out of the way for other work which is sure to be crowding it.
