Nevertheless in the game OF politics As
played in the United States, the new
administration will be judged as il

Many persons who will look for rad

may be doomed to disappointment
Socialism has long been a strong fac

Its advocates have never before been

Idiosyncratic Problems.

Sociology, if it is to desrye the
name OF science, must soon turn itself
to a quantitive and qualitive analysis
and synthesis OF certain phenomena
which now go about unattached, un-
~heayed, as it were.
For instance, how many freaks does
it take TO make one fad? How many
lads to make a fashion? How many
cranks must be gathered together in
one place before we have a cult,
What relation does a cult bear TO a
movement? What is the comparative
proportion of ideas to each OF the
Categories here mentioned?
The permutations and combinations
OF these tentative queries are infinite

NOW WHY is LIVING HIGH?
Writers in Many Magazines Offer
Their Opinions.

A faVorlte topic OF discussion over
the country generally by scientists
and others just now is the High Cost
OF Living. For those interested,
Miss Grace d. Phillips of the Univer-
sity of Missouri library has catalogued
several articles which give valuable
information on the subject.
The general conditions of living in
the different countries of Europe at
the present time are described in an
article of the Quarterly Journal of
Economy, vol 90, pages 345-50, Febru-
AIRY. 1903. 1t is entitled British
Board OF Trades Investigation into
the Cost of Living"
L. NJ. Byles gives all account of the
Cost of Living in the United States"
followed by an article by F. A. Ogg on
the Cost of Living in Europe" in the
World To-Day for March, 1910, pages
31S-26. These articles give compari-
son OF the cost Of food in the two
countries.
W. f. Clark, in the Review of Re
views on Why Should the Cost OF
Living Increase" assigns six general
causes as to the increase cost of living
and how they affect prices: first, the
labor unions; second, curtailment of
natural resources; third, effect of
tariff on prices; fourth influence Of
the trusts; fifth, increased demand;
and sixth, increase in the worlds gold
supply.
A timely topic also has its humorous
side. apparently. Mr.. Dooley Oh the
Cost of Living F. p Dunno, in the
American Magazine, for January, 1910.
pages 1853. will give few bright
thoughts.
Food Problems in the Past Centu-
ries,' Review of Reviews. January,
1910, shows that the food problem in
the life of today is a growth in pro-
portion TO other conditions OF our
existence as it has been in the cenru-
