cTART YOUR SHOPPING.

Wise people are starting their Christ
mas shopping now Others are prepar-
ing to start as soon as the merchants
make their preliminary announce
men5s. 1t really is hard TO understand
why so many people postpone their
Christmas shopping until the last pos
sible moment, and harder still to I'M
derstand why the people will go
through the same breathless rush
every year. Nine people out of ten
know today the names of the friends
and relatives they intend to remember
with presents at Christmas. In a gen.
erai way they know what they want
to give those friends and relatives.
Why not start out now and do the
thing comfortably? It is a pleasure to
buy Christmas presents, but much of
the pleasure is lost in the final, exas-
perating rush. Many of the presents
are disappointing, not only to the re-
cipient, but to the donors, because. in
the hot finish the thing nearest to
hand is chosen, rather than the thing
that is suitable. The earlier the shop
ping is done the greater variety the
shopper has to choose from. One can
go quietly from place to place, can Sc
cure good service and be suited
The week before Christmas is usually
the most maddening in the calendar.
The stores are ali packed with people,
the clerks are running their legs off
from Io4
ing. Everybody is tired and cross. and
the sentiment that, after all, Christ
mas is more a nuisance than a pleas
ure becomes too general. Shoppers
should allow themselves time for COM
parsons of prices and articles: they
should allow themselves time for
thought about the suitability of the
gifts they intend to bestow. And the
only way in which to secure these
blessings is to take time by the fore
lock
Finally, there are few more pleasant
sensations than the serene knowledge.
week or two before Christmas. that
all the shopping has been done, that
everybody has been provided for. that
there is no necessity for getting into
the delirious brushes that cost so much
In wear and tear on temper. And then.
if you have a week or two before
Christmas in which to look over your
lists and find that somebody has been
overlooked, there is still time to take
care of that person without so much
excitement.
As we said, the people who do their
Christmas shopping early are the wise
people. They save themselves an in
finite amount of bother, and there's no
getting away from the fact.

pay OF ARMY OFFICERS.

Complaint is made by General A w.
CREEPY, who commands the Department
of the Columbia, that the pay of army
| officers is entirely too small. The gen.
eral has written to a number of Off
GERS and finds that very few of them
live within their salaries. He says that
the average officer annually spends
twenty-one per cent more than his in
come and he wants the government to
do something about it. Otherwise
only the sons of rich men can afford to
hold commissions.
The pay of army officers may be
small, but a second lieutenant, who
draws less than any commissioned Of
ficer, receives SIG per month. out of
this sum he is expected to provide
himself with uniforms and pay his
share of the mess bills. Still. many
heads of families are supporting them
comfortably on a good deal less than
Sll6 a month. and they are not COM
planning, either. But he doesn't go into
society much, he doesn't play cards for
money and he doesn't imagine for a
moment that Injuries are necessities.
The second lieutenant, and most of
the other officers of our army. COM
plain that they have to keep up ap-
pearances. This is a Pigment of their
imagination. They are not expected or
required 10 do more than live decent,
clean lives; to set good examples to
the men they command, to be gentle
men and to fight hard when the time
for fighting comes. We know it is
hard for the officer who has nothing
but his pay to keep out of the amuse-
ments freely INDUCED in by brother
officers who have private sources of
income, but so is it hard for the civil
ian to deny himself pleasures enjoyed
by Weather acquaintance. Yet he
has to deny himself. Self-denial is
just as good tonic for the officer as for
the plain, everyday citizen of the
United States.
oit may be true that the officers
should receive more money. The cost
Of living has increased more rapidly
than their pay. and a readjustment
would probably be only fair. But there |
is 10 denying the fact that false stan
dards of living have been set up by |
army officers. and the sooner they
come down to a sane basis, generally |
speaking, the better off they and the
army VIII be.
In the meanwhile. should not General
Greedy be disciplined for making his
protest? We remember we'll enough
that when the letter carriers attempted
to influence legislation favorable to an
increase of their wages they were
sharply reprimanded and informed
that a repetition of the offense would
result in their discharge from the SER
vice.

/ OOSEN UP.

When you looked out on the day yes
terday and saw the first snowstorm of
the season, you saw the herald of the
holidays, the promise of good cheer,
the guarantee of prosperity for the
farmers and of good trade for the
merchants. If you are fortunate
enough to have little ones in your
home, you heard them discussing sleds
and skates and Santa Claus with all
the blessed optimism Of youth; and if
you arc constituted Alright you cheered
up at the thought of the winters COM
ing, with its home comforts and init
mactes, its realization of the summers
fruition. its time for holiday giving and
benefactions.
Possibly it had not occurred to you
before. but Christmas is barely a
month away, and Thanksgiving comes
in a week The pessimists will dwell
on the things they ought not to be
thankful for, but the saner minds will
be glad they are alive, glad that the
sober sense OF a whole nation is meet
ing successfully a financial problem
that would have Frustrated the coun-
try a decade ago.
Reasons for good cheer? Plenty Of
them.
II any time could have been chosen
for reaction from wild speculation, it
could not have been arranged better.
Europe is short of food stuffs, and we
have tremendous surplus. 1t has to
have cotton, and the United States has
about three-quarters of a billion dol
lars worth Of it on hand this year.
Money is tight but the things that
bring money are plentiful. and they
viii bring it in due time. Trade in in
dustrial lines has been relaxed, but the
men who were scared two weeks ago
have discovered they were only scared
not hurt seriously. And all the while
the foundation OF business. the conf
dence in the stability Of the nations
finances, has been improving, the gov
eminent issue Of bonds and short-term
notes promises to clear up the situation
still more. $25OO0,OOO Of government
money goes west today to help move
crops to the seaboard for export. the
gold imports keep coming, the fnan-
cters Of Europe are feeling more COM
Portable about American conditions.
and the clouds have broken enough to
show glimpses of clear sky in the hori- !
ION.
This by way of preface to some re-
marks on local conditions. Salt Lake
is perhaps more fortunate than any
other western city in the conservatism
of its banks and the solidity of its
finances. Naturally careful, the people !
of this city and its surrounding com |
merciaI territory have maintained their |
equilibrium remarkably throughout a /
time Of uncertainty. because they had 1
reason to believe in the wisdom Of /
their bankers and leaders generally. !
They know now that the situation is
getting brighter day by day, and know
ing that. they can afford to resume the
normal routine of everyday life with
thankfulness and good cheer.
They can make things even better by
going ahead on the same lines. The
man who has Christmas in his mind
can do not better than by beginning his
Christmas purchases right now; the
woman who is forehanded will find this
a most opportune time TO get her holt
day buying done. If the people begin

to loosen up" now it will start things
going surprisingly we'll.
The snowstorm is a signal for winter
buying, and the sooner you buy the
better for everybody. Loosen up your
pocketbook and you'll feel better, be-
sides making the other fellow feel
cheerful.

Germany has her Round Table. One
of the most fearful shocks the German
people have ever experienced came to
them recently when it was found large
part at least of the aristocratic class to
whom they had been SO loyal were taint-
ed through and through with the poison
of abominable vice." said Rev. G. A.
Cleaveland in his sermon at the Orchard
Avenue Baptist church yesterday morn
ing.
He continued: "a call of God is ringing
over the world to the great nations OF
the earth, voiced in conditions of such
peril as may well stir men to earnest
thought.
Great Britain has her India today.
She faced this peril half century ago
and imagined the danger had been over
come with the suppression of Indian
mutiny, but today throughout the whole
length and breadth of that vast Indian
empire Mohammedan and Hindu alike
are seething in ferment of revolution,
while England at home is facing indus
trial unrest.
Russia has her anarchists. Gear Mich
olas may dismiss the douma and fool
ishly imagine that with the restoration
of the Did policy of repression the dam
ger has been averted, but within few
days past a young woman shot down one
of the arch conspirators against the lib
critics of the Russian people-shot him
down in the midst of a gay company
and then resigned herself to the hands Of
the law, sneering at their power.
Russia today throughout it's vast ex-
tent, is. full of that same spirit of revo-
luton.
What does 1t all mean? Simply that
the policy of commercialism which has
ruled the world for years. the policy
which has exalted luxury, selfish life,
selfish ease, which has brought in the
rule of cruelty and oppression. which has
shut out God from our councils-that
policy of irreligion, has produced
throughout the world its fearful. ap-
palling fruit which means reform or
chaos. And the call is loud and clear,
voiced in overhanging terrors, that wise
rem and true shall bestir themselves to
bring back the fear of God as an opera
tive force in national life.'
