Taft Economy Drive Transforms Federal Finances
President Taft shifts to a businesslike government, creating a budget system and cutting waste. The transformation moves from a $59 million deficit to a $30 million surplus, with the Economy and Efficiency Commission saving taxpayers millions annually and pushing for tighter departmental appropriation and standardization of prices. The administration seeks $250,000 more for the commission to deepen the reforms.

Selflessness and Success in Life's Call to Service
Editor of The Fimes shares a clipping on success through selflessness and courage. It argues true achievement comes from serving others and God, not personal gain. Courageous effort, faith, and disciplined living lead to lasting impact and heavenly acknowledgment, while self centered striving yields hollow results. The piece also praises piety and communal blessing, urging readers to pursue larger aims beyond personal comfort. The note ends with a brief local ad for a 10 cent cigar from John G. Hoels in Marshfield.
