You cannot keep friends long if you cannot forgive their faults. Keep this before you as a motto: "Behind me to the faults of others, but re¬ veal to me my own."
(Ieorge Schaardt and family, who spent the Wimter in Florida, have re¬ turned to Massapequa.
This is a good time to follow .lohn Wesley's rule:

In all the ways you can.
In all the places you can.
At all the times you can.
To all the people you can.
As long as ever you can.

Don t Let a
Penny Cost Spoil
a Dollar'Product
Has it ever occurred to you how vitally this maxim applies to the purchase of rilhons -and carbon paper? Have you fifjured all of the items of cost which enter into the production of a buainess letter, including sten- OKrapher'.s time, mailinK de¬ partment labor, overhead, post- aire, letterheads, ribbon, and carbon paper? You will find that tho last two items com¬ prise only a little over one per cent, of the total.
This is not a .surmise. Wo I have compileti fijjurcs which \ show the averatre total cost of j 100 business letters to be $14.10 1-^. Of this totivJ, rib¬ bon and carbon paper (ijfure only 1<) 1-2 cents.
.¦\nd yet the good appearance of your letters and the legibil¬ ity of the copies (thKolntely re¬ quire that your ribbons and car¬ bon paper shall b.- the very best.
This is the great practical reason why every t>n)ewriter user should use our
Paragon Ribbons
and
Red Seal Carbon J Paper
The.se pnnlucts are made in our own factory, by our own specially trained workmen, ao- cordintr to our own methods and formulas. These methods and formulas are th^ result of our unrivaled experience in ribbon and carbon paper making and these ^roo<^8 are the best that money can buy.

The entertainment and dance giv¬ en by the Church of St. Barnabas on St. Patrick's Eve, .March IRth, proved to be a big succe-iis in every way. The entertainment as well as the dance were very good, and an ex¬ tra large crowd attended. These kind of affairs make the people realize that the town is not sleeping. Many of the prominent men and women of the village were masqueraded in costumes fitting the occasion, which added greatly lo the fun of the evening.
Don't forget the entertainment of the Wantairh Auxiliary of the Ameri¬ can Tied ('ross to bo given in Firemen's Hall, Bellmore, this (Friday) even¬ ing, March 22nfl. The affair promises to be one worth while attendinir, as the entertainer.s aro to be profession¬ als frotn the city.

Com- inittee.s have been appointed to lead llie campaign in all four villages, and the.se committees have in turn ap¬ pointed sub-committees, whose duty il i.s to look after the various clubs and organizations pf their respective villag-es. -At any rate it is the inten¬ tion of the committees to let no one escape their duty by not being asked to buy a bond.
The First National Bank continues its remarkable grrowth. On the open¬ ing day the deposits were $26,000; today the deposits are over $70,000, an increase of over $44,000 during six months. On the first of the year de¬ posits were $56,000, which shows an increase of $14,000, for two and a half of the hardest months of the year. The bank has over 325 deposi¬ tors, exclusive of the Christmas Club and Liberty Bond Club, which add over .300 more accounts. This showing speaks well for the town and the ollice rs of the bank, as few other country banks can boast of such re¬ markable growth so soon after the opening.
