All the new building has been on the fireproof order and to that extent has lessen- ed the fire danger in the business district. The com- munity, however, has not made as good a showing, in home biulding and is still lacking in accommodations for new families when they come here• The next move should be in the line of some modest moder homes that would appeal to tenants and earn better rentals than the glass of rental houses now available. The new post office building Will add another to the permanent buildings of the community, ample for.the town to expand to several times its present size, aa,d should be a matter of congratulation to Shelton people, We should be proud of our Hotel, Bank, Library, Hospi- tal and our general stpres for their class and service, and we will be proud of the new post office building and its equipment when completed, as well as of the proposed new Memorial building. Each of these leave nothing fur- ther to be desired in their direction'and our people may turn their attention to needed improvement in other ways. While 1921 has not been as "rosy" as the year pre- ceding, and this community has suffered some handicaps, in summing up at its close Shelton will find much to be thankful for•  Now to boost the Soldiers' Memoriai Fund. PLENTY OF WORK'FOR ALL It is hard to appreciatethe unemployment situation reported in some sections when noting that large bodies of men are striking against any reduction from war.time wages and refusing to Work :or let others work;, 'thus hindering their own as well as all allied industries. If the labor' troubles were adjusted there would pl:01Jallyiibel work for all men and at wages which would afford profit to the laborer as in war-time. - .......... SHALL WE COMPLETE THE GAP? , Before the end of the current year the state's paving plan for this biennium, so far as Mason County is c0n- cerned, will be completed and nothing more can be ex- pected on the Olympic Highway during 1922.--unless Mason County people decide to carry out their original' intention in the voting and issue of bonds under the Car- lyon law proposal. : The understanding under which the bonds were voted was that the funds of this county would be matched by federal aid and paving of the highway would be pos- sible at least as far as Shelton• It will be recalled that the Carlyon plan was voted down in the state and to that extent the original plan cannot be carried out• Now, however, the federal aid is available and if desired can be secured to match the county funds and complete the paving to Shelton next year. The last legislature came to our aid and will this year complete about eleven miles of paving on the Olym- pic Highway, nearly four of which are in Mason County, leaving less than eight miles to connect with Shelton and this county has saved a good share of the funds intended for the purpose. The question will,, ddibtless soon come up as to the intention of Mason County to issue more of its waiting bonds :and join with the federal aid to com- plete the paving next year rather than wait for the action of the next legislature. That such a step 'is very desirable will not be ques- tioned, that the advantage of the perfect highway may be enjoyed and the "agony" :of poor roads and detours be ended as soon as possible. The experience of this sum- mer proves that our counities have lost thousands of dollars and our pe0pte(!iljen heavily taxed by the ineon- vemeces of thisi:,s:lone,, and:while the: wb/-st is  over ,:to have the i":"' ' om 1 ... ...... t g:.tc peted next ear will be worth all its cos.,b::u:riPbple. Y ., Think it over, ....  ..... " ..... :'::':'" WHAT OF 19227 That 1920 was bad, we know; that 1921 "is not so bad," we all realize, and now the question arises--what about 1922? Will it see more of the same, or will thai long delayed prosperity materialize in this year/to come, asks the Industrial Review•  : Employers, employes and the countrr at large are anxious to see the end of the trying readjustment days• They want to see days of plenty of obs and a normal demand for output; of reasonable prices with money to pay for them. ,, ' -J.-- ....... : .............................. noughts afloat: has gven umversal satisfaction, runmng lights, life preservers, hand The new warship is the third of" Represented by Mrs. Elizabeth Shultz pump, tools, etc. $250! c$h, or will the four superdreadnoughts author, at Hotel Shelton. 9-23-1t. trade for Ford touring or roadster ized in 1916.

THE COUNTRY PAPER'S FIELD An exchange which reached this office last week contained a long let- ter from a subscriber who was tell: ing th e editor of that .paper just what the paper ought to: contain in order to fulfill its missio,n as a coun- try paper. First, this subscriber would have the paper furnish all the loenl news, free and fearlessly presented; then he would add the' state 'ews ', then the national and lastly the interna- tional news. When this was dbnethe paper could sit back and coast....: .. Most of' thi:pape2 cming un'der the classificati6n of"Coufitry'papdrs" find it a man-sized job ib mak6:eight ' or twdlve pages every week keep the salary checks circulating around the office every week. They find that lo- cal news and advertising, the latter relating materially to the checks mentioned above, fill these pages pretty full. If country papers attempted to furnish state, national and interns: tional news in large enoughl quanti- ties to do their subscribers .much good, they wouldn't last a month. ' Country papers are .not !in compe, tition :with city papers which pay thousands of dollars every year "to secure state, national and "internation- al news. Nor are city.papers in corn, etition with country papers. Each ave their field. • There are still many country pa- pers which might be called a joke, but the number is lessening every year as papers adopt business meth- ods. There are some who think the country paper could be doric away with entirely but when that (lay comes it will be a sad day for com- munity life in America for there is nothing that is contributing more, or can contribute more to community life than a good country paper. Its field is the little country community in whch it lives; there it has a field which will take all the time and energy of the man at its head. It should know what is going on in state and nation and encourage oth- ers to know but to provide that I knowledge is utterly impossible.-- : Grandview Herald.
