WILL A DAILY PAY " ' For Fall cind Winter The Post observes with Interest that the editor of the Herald is extremely anxious to give to Provo a daily newspaper service, wherein Associated Press dispatches, Sunday colored sup pleraents and other features would contribute - to the attractiveness of a daily service. Since it seems impossible for the two papers to arrive at satisfactory terms that would effect a consolidation the ' editor of the Herald insisting on a controlling interest in. any amalgamation that might be made it is quite possible that his suggestion that a daily service between the two papers would prove more satisfactory than the present arrangement. Whether such a service acan be given profitably or not is a matter of conjecture, which, experience would no doubt determine. While The Post at this moment is undergoing a reorganization designed, to give it a press that will adequately handle the business of a triweekly or daily paper, it might not be amiss to or daily say that it will enter the field and give its readers Associated Press dispatches, colored supplements for Sunday and other features, only whenTIn the judgment of its management, it will pay to give such a service. The Post has watched, and profited to some extent by what it has seen, in the coming and going of both daily and papers in this city; and while we are not unmindful of the fact that our city is growing, and that it might seem to some that Provo is, from point of size, entitled to a daily newspaper, the competition of the large dailies is not an easy obstacle to overcome. We are differently situated than are most cities of our size, but withal the Provo papers are better gotten up, and contain more attractively headed articles than any papers in this Or other intermountain states, and so far as The Post is concerned it proposes to continue giving its readers the best it possibly can, and will enter the triweekly or daily field just as soon as it is deemed expedient to do so. In the meanwhile our ever growing list of subscribers may depend upon receiving the best y paper in the intermountain country. tri-week- tri-week- - i t Hi Genuine Velours $6. ly ly MALLORY H ATS c issues? semi-weekl- f CITIZENS MANIFEST RIGHT SPIRIT. It is. indeed gratifying to note the interest with which the citizens in general are back of the new Chamber of Commerce movement, and those who attended last nights civic dinner cannot help but predict success for the movement. The enthusiasm and spirit of progressiveness manifested among our civic and commercial bodies testify to the optimism and alertness of the citizens of our community. One of the outstanding encouraging features of the present movement is the . fact that citizens of all classes are awake to Provos opportunities and are ready to assist in pushing the city farther to the front. It is not to be a few boosters alone who will have to do all the pushing, but the majority of the trades, professional and business men will put their shoulder to the wheel. All will give financial as well l support. And so-i- t should be. We are all interested in Provo and we will all be benefitted by her progress and prosperity. With the growth of the city the laborer and the tradesman will be afforded more opportunities to sell his labor and skill, while a larger field will be opened for the commodities of the merchant, and the business man, as well as for the professional man. Nobody will be neglected or forgotten by the city on its onward course, Since the gatherings at the various meetings held thus far in the interest of the Chamber of Commerce seem to indicate that a majority of the citizens realize that united effort is certain to bring prosperity to all, we are safe in predicting a wholehearted response to the appeals of the various teams engaged in the membership drive during the remainder of this and weeks to come. as''-mora- WHAT MAKES CITIES GROW. While other big cities were growing 10 to 20 per cent from 1910 to 1920, Detroit gained 114 per cent. City boosters in places big and little re asking how on earth they did it. This growth was due largely to the expansion of --the automobile business. But the automobile people would not have settled there, had not conditions been specially favorable. People familiar with Detroit say these gains were made by the devotion of the business men to their commercial organizations, and their willingness to take hold and work for good local - A AA A A- A A A An THE FIVE GREATEST MEN. If you were asked to name the five greatest men in the history of the world, what names would you select?.! A biography class in the University of Indiana had this question put up to it, and the fol- lowing list had the most votes: Shakespeare, Aristotle, Caesar, Lincoln and Washington. It is significant of a changing sentiment when a philosopher like Aristotle is given a place in such a list, while a military genius like Napoleon is left out. Such would not have been the case in past times when great generals used to be considered the greatest men. The world today places highest the man who can lead human beings into more harmonious relations, and build up communities on foundations of justice and FIRST LESSONS IN TRUTH. Come, dear I Mother cant buy you the candy in the window, but if youre good, and hurry, we can get some ice cream around the corner. Suppose there were any ice cream around the corner, the offer would be a kind of bribery, anybusiness is all too comway. That mon. There isnt any ice cream around the corShe relies foolishly ner, and mother knows on the little mind to forget her promise. This method of dealing with children is just common enough to make any of us stop and wonder how much parents lie, cheat and defraud their own. There is the Santa Claus fiction, for example; it is forgivable enough. There are the lies told to hide the mysteries of pew. life and old instincts ; .they are unnecessary perhaps in a world where beautiful miracles of creation and love are made ugly chiefly through ignorance. But the unforgivable lies to children are found in that stream of petty untruth which parents use to wheedle and hoodwink babies and older youngsters into obedience. What honest man or woman can ever grow out of the child who has caught a careless not a wicked dad or mother with the goods.

Since my place was inspected by a state official and a small box of isolated soap grease. declared to. have been unsanitary (whichwas made the basis of extremely, adverse and somewhat exaggerated reports) ;I have thoroughly cleansed and renovated every nook and comer of my store and. can truthfully say that there is no cleaner or more sanitary store or market in this, part of the state. Our groceries are fresh and clean and the best the market affords. Our meat is kept in a modem ice vault under proper temperature to insure its -freshness. Housewives may feel certain that their" orders will receive prompt and careful attention. - . As My Competitors See It Eight of the fore most meat and gro- cery dealers iri this city have expressed the opinion that cir- cumstances surrounding the reprimand I received at the hands of those who took an adverse, attitude to- ward me, would not justify such action and have signed a pro- test to that effect Such a 'condition might be found at any . time during the rush of extra work, they say, and they are kind enough to express their belief that the reports of the condition of my store. were not warranted.
