enthusiastic market for the Up-Rite, which is said to afford substantial savings in manpower, plus exceptional accuracv and safetv.

Lee ffarris, -manager of the Specialty division at Inland Lumber, stressed the manpower savings. With normal operations, Harris said, a lumber dealer can save enough in labor alone to pay the initial cost of ttrc saw in a short time.

Especially useful for cut-to-size plylvood, the Up-Rite can also be used profitably for trimming doors to size, cutting plastics, Formica, Celotex and aluminum sheets. It cuts and trims ma- terials with a sharp, true, smooth edge. Using a hollow ground saw blade, the Up-Rite also is said to cut a perfect glue joint. Advantages of the position of the Up-Rite Saw are apparent immediately. Only 4 square feet of floor space is required, the saw being 7 feet wide and 10 feet high. Because the saw is located at the rear of the deck, sawdust drops to the back instead of into the face of the operator, Harris said. Two hold-down bars which are operated by ratchet levers hold material firm and flat during cutting operations, even if the material is warped or buckled. A steel saw raceway keeps the frame and saw accurate and permits

Adjustable alignment rods permit adjusting the saw to absolute tolerances and accuracy. A saw-return lever permits the saw to return to the desired starting position automatically after each cut. The upright position of the saw table permits the operator to stand up to his work and have all operating controls conveniently within his reach. It eliminates the awkward positions, stooping and bending required in the operation of a hortzontal table saw, thus greatly reducing the fatigue factor ln the operator.

Harris estimates that one man operating the Up-Rite Saw can do twice as much work as two men operating a conventional floor table saw.

Inland Lumber has mounted a demonstration unit of the Up-Rite Panel Saw on a trailer. Lumbei dealers interested in seeing a first-hand demonstration of its features are invited to call the firm's Colton number or drop a card to the Bloomington Distribution Yard.

Antogonism of Aloms

We are taught, many of us from our youth onwards, that competition is essential to the health and progress of the race. Or, as Herbert Spencer puts it, "society flourishes by the antagonism of its atoms."

But the obvious golden truth is that cooperation is good and competition bad, and that society flourishes by the mutual aid of human beings. I say t&rat is obvious, and so it is. And it is so well known that in all great military or commercial enterprises, individualism has to be subordinated to collective action. We do not believe that a house divided against itself shall stand: we believe that it shall fall.

We know that a state, torn by internal feuds and worn by faction fig&rting, cannot hold its own against a united people. We know that in a cricket or football team, a regiment, a ship's crew, a school, the "antagonism of the atoms" would mean defeat and failure.'We know that a society composed of antagonistic atoms would not be a society at all, and could not exist as a society. We know that if men are to found and govern cities, to build bridges and make roads, to establish universities, to sail ships and sink mines, and create educational systems and policies and religions, they must work together and not against one another.

Surely these things are as obvious as the fact that there could be no hive unless the bees worked as a colony and on ttre lines of mutual aid.

Where Troubles Go

A crowd of troubles passed him by As he withcourage waited.

He said: "Wrere do you troubles fly When you are thus belated?"

"We go," they said, "to tihose who mope, Who look on life dejected, Who weakly say goodbye to hopeWe go where we're expected."

The Ediror Got lt

In the country newspaper office, they one day found a big, fine looking turkey, left at the office.

Of course, there were many longing ey€s cast at the prize, but naturallv it fell to the lot of the editor, and since he showed no disposition to deny himself the treat, he carried it home, cooked, and ate it with much relish.

The next day a letter was handed to him, that read: "Mr.' Editor, f sent you a turkey yesterday, which has been the cause of much dispute in this district. Several turkeys have died in the same mysterious way, and we sent one to you to see if you could tell us what disease killed it."

Father's just another boy that's gone along before you; Just a bigger, wiser boy, who knows the road aheadBigger, wiser, stronger boy, who always watches o'er you, Pointing out the pitfalls in the stumbly path you tread.

Father is an older boy who played the games you're playing, Held the same illusions, aye-he made the same mistakes; Knows the short-cut back from where your wayward feet are straying.

Listen to that bigger boy, my son, for both your sakes.

Father is an older boy, and so he understands you. Understands, and patiently would guide your feet aright. Harken to him now before the world of men demands youFollow in his steps today, they'll lead you to the light.

Morgin for Truth

The late Bishop Canevin of the Pittsburgh Diocese was exhorting a women's society to greater zeal, and told this story by way of illustration: "When I was a young priest I was in charge of a paristr notable for its lack of interest. One cold and rainy night, Michael, the 250-pound janitor, and I arrived to perform our respective duties for an announced meeting. Not another soul appeared. The following week the diocesan paper noted that'a large and enthusiastic audience attended the weekly sodality meeting of our parish.' Much astonished, Michael called it to my attention:

" 'Large and enthusiastic ! Humph !' he growled, in honest indignation. 'Why, your riverence, you know there wasn't a soul there but you and meself.'

"'Yes, Michael, but the item is perfectly true,' I pacified. 'You see, you are large, and I am enthusi45fig'."-Qoronet.

Dr. Elior to Young Folks:

"If I had the opportunty to say a final word to all the young people of America, it would be this: Don't think too much about yourselves. Try to cultivate the habit of thinking of others; this will reward you. Nourish your minds by good reading, constant reading. Discover what your life work is, work in which you can do most good, in which you can be happiest. Be unafraid in all th,ings when you know you are in the right."-Dr.
