TT HE cost Of living is the best
advertised subject of the
present time. It's popular
ity will continue. 1t interests ev-
erybody who spends money; more
particularly those who have to earn
the money before they spend it.
College boys on a regular allow
ance are not worrying.
They tell us in books and maya
zines that the purchasing power of
the dollar has steadily fallen, until
what it can 90 for US as compared
with what it did for our grand
fathers is a shameful difference
They point out in papers and
magazines what may be the causes
of the weakness that has assailed
the dollar a. its worst disease.
Some of these causes are: % The
over production of gold; CD the
control of corporations; CD the
government purchase of railways;
ca the necessity for getting divi-
dends on watered stock out of the
general public
Read each one Of these causes
again. slowly.
You Are Voter.
You are a voter. You have been
told about the dignity that the
franchise bestows upon you. That
dignity is real thing Your Amer
lean citizenship is held up to you
as a great possession. 1t Is a great
possession, The power of your vote
has been sung to you fer years.
And It has power.
But. on the other hand-O You
have a home in which your interest
is conferred; CD you have job that
takes your attention all day long;
CD you have a body that needs rest
all night long.
Now, what can you do today be-
tween sunrise and sunset to make
dealers sell you the necessities of.
life at a cheaper rate than you paid
yesterday?
You are proba bly, convinced that
you can do nothing And you are
pretty near right
But still you are interested in the
cost of living, because you find it
harder and harder to make both
ends come near each other. Must
you sit down and take what they
hand out to you, Or can you do
something about it some time?
You probably can do something.
OY holm tn do conatbine
Two problems are before you:
l. An interest in your own affairs.
2. An equal interest in public af-
fairs
You will never make good with
the contents of the pay envelope if
you dodge either of these.
The first means an intelligent
administration of your own affairs
NOW.
The second means an equally in
telligent administration of your af-
fairs as citizen ALL THE TINE.

every girl who read it should take

This was the story of girl who

and she wasn't as wise to the dam

city as girl should be.
So this pretty foolish young girl
let a good-looking. well dressed
masher speak to her on the street
under the pretense that he thought
he recognized her and then. as he
apologized in a graceful manner,
she permitted him to walk home
