WHISPERINGS 
of THE BREEZES 
Dear Mr. Editor: 
In your paper of recent date are 
a few definitions whispered by the 
Breeze. In those definitions was 
only one reference to Woman and 
that was rather disparaging. <A 
little bird has whispered a few 
others to me which I think may in- 
terest your readers. They are 
quoted below. 
Some More Definitions 
Woman has waited since the days of 
Mother Eve to be made man’s Political 
Equal. That is Patience. 
Woman provides all the living targets 
used in warfare. That is Sacrifice.

gets an example.to mankind in every 
community. That is Morality. 
Woman supports and maintains churches 
successfully by her work and attend- 
ance. That is pratical Christianity.

the distressed in sickness, sorrow or

and an A 1 housekeeper at night. That

In a little town near Lacrosse, 
Wisconsin, indexed in the postal 
guide as Waukon (Walk-on), an 
ordinance has been passed and is 
being enforced which might inter- 
est the rest of the country. A day 
is set aside every year and is 
in Manchester, 
Beverly Farms, 
and Vicinity.

designated ‘‘Bring-It-Back-Day.””’ 
Those who borrow money, those 
who borrow property, those who 
borrow anything of a borrowable 
nature, are supposed on this partic- 
ular day to bring it back, and if 
they do not comply with the munt- 
cipal edict the town marshal goes 
after the borrowed article and 
brings it back anyway—that is, 1f 
he can get it. In Kansas the ‘*Pay- 
Up-Week’’ celebration has been a 
fruitful suecess and this week of 
the 52 almost everybody who is in 
a position to make restitution does 
his and her best to do so. 
Debt is the secret foe of thrift. 
The debt habit is the twin brother 
of poverty. The great trouble of 
the country is the credit system. 
An unknown man with scarcely 
any truble, obtains credit. This 
encourages many to go wrong. 
People who have credit and do a 
credit business buy more than they 
need. To keep clear in the eyes of 
the world, operate on a cash basis. 
This is not always possible. Some 
people have to depend on credit to 
exist, but when they are in this 
position they must understand that 
16 Norwood Ave., Manchester 
they are standing on the brink ot 
disaster. In these two laboratories 
of thought laws have been enacted 
which may seem foolish, but there 
is logic in both. In either case will 
the laws be held constitutional, but 
at the same time they encourage 
some people to do the right thing 
and pay up. <A small debt, many 
argue, produces a friend. This is 
why credits are so easily obtained, 
but it must be remembered that a 
large debt creates an enemy. The 
pay-up week idea and bring-it-back- 
day in Wisconsin are not so foolish 
after all. There is so much method 
in such legislation that it should 
not be ridiculed. The first step in 
debt is like the first step in false- 
hood. It must be followed up until 
one is hopelessly involved. Pay up. 
bring it back, keep yourself cleay. 
The way then will be free of ob- 
stacles—Commercial Appeal.
