SMALL SAVINGS

When it comes 10 teaching thrift an
excellent example is occasionally fur
nis81ed by the government. however
much other acts may counteraCt il.
just at the present time attention is
directed to t4ee plan which has been
adopted BIZ the navy department Of
feeding recruits from it's ovga corarnis-
aaTy while Transporting them across
the country. BY so doing the SAVING #
six cents On each meal is ACCOMPLISHED
This of course is a small sum and
would prove an insufficient saving if
there were but few being TRANSPORTED.
but with the many who are concerned
there are great posi- b;Eties from a
small saving on each individual and
1t Is thersNy ta:3J the idea yields a
coru9easstiug return.
Such thrift is deserving Of much
commemorate and is worthy of erau-
Iation. Not only Toes it furnish a les
son OF mulch aalue to ether depart
ments of the %over1Ieat but it shows
10 the individual the possibilities of
srnal SAVINGS. If every person in the
country was able to effect such a saw
ing at each meal the handsome az
gregate of $16,50C.J0G would be piled
up a. the end of each day. Il is a
staggering revelation of what could
be accomplished in a year. This Is
but one of the many opportunities for
the encouragement and practice of
thrift It is by the small saving and
the overcoming OF waste and extraya
gance that the .>opsuut1r can combat
the high cost eff living.

RAILROAD CHANGES.

The fact that it has been announced
that there is to be a curtailment in
service and in some instances in wages
on the New Haven road is not a cause
for surprise. Rather is it but the nat
uraI result of the conditions of the
past and the course to be expected
in the reimbursement which must take
place if the road is to be replaced
upon a paying basis Whatever changes
are made will be made because it has
been determined from Investigations
that the action is necessary.
There is no reason to believe that
there will be an impairment of the
service where it is known or is dis
covered that the operation Of the trains
is q paving proposition. In the en-
deavor TO build up business and to sat
isfv the demand for increased service
a number of trains have heen run at g
loss They have not rs~jt with OK

ronage 1t is the unpa trcnizeG trains
which least affect the accommodations
of the public and whatever curtaf-
ment is found necessary will be in
that direction. 1t is a recognized fact
that the reconstruction OF the system
must begin at the bottom. IF trains
are not needed, it means q saving to

Everybody at Church Sunday.

Mr.. Editor: Several correspondents
have in your columns commended to
the public the observance of an Ev-
erybody at Church" Sunday, and We
all are solicitous that ii may not prove
momentary sensation or squirt of
interest which shall speedily expend
itself We believe. however, it will
leave permanent results for good if it
leads fair minded people TO raise and
and face the question: What the
churches in the community stand for
what interests they represent and con
serve?
Assuming that the churchless citi-
zen cherishes a high ethical ideal for
himself and for his neighbors is it not
worth while for ,him to face the fact
that these churches of every name
Jewish. Greek. Roman Catholic and
Protestant-are all striving to hold
these ideals and press them into the
lives of their several constituencies,
and would lose their right to be called
churches if they taught or tolerated
other than high standards of living.
which, if accepted, would make for the
stalwart citizenship? Would it not be
we'll for him to ask again whether a
fine type of personal character, public
morals and good citizenship are help
ed by detachment from these centerS
of ethical teaching or are they each
and unsympathetic attitudes toward
these religious organizations whose
sole business it is to create and nOur-
ish loyalty to high ethical standards l?
Let him also ask and find an answer
to the question whether we should
have the same ordered life. the same
training and protection for young life;
the same care for the suffering and the
poor: the same efficient charities
should the churches of the city close
their doors? Would the most self
compliment citizen care to live i'll a city
without churches? A result to which
every habitual absentee tacitly assents
by his present attitude of non cooper
alton Then il there is but one logical
answer to these questions, is it not The
part of good citizenship to throw ones
influence TO these organizations that
stand for the best in personal, civic
and commercial life, and not treat
! them as negligible Quantities which we
can disregard md pass on our way? II
| this Every body att hurch move

square and sane answers for then

LET TIERS To THE ET>ETOR
Will Perpetuats What Caused High
Cost of Living and Panics

Mr.. Editor: Am just in receipt of |
that wonderful document popularity
known as the banking and currency
law CD. abbreviated to Federal Re
serve Act. Somewhere l have read
that the mountain labored and
brought forth a mouse" 1t applies
nicely to this act. You all remember
how the democratic spellbinders told
the dear people how they were going to
reduce the high cost of living, only
put us in possession of the reins"
You want to watch out and observe
prices tumble, mostly in imagination
This so-called law is very good of its
kind but a very poor kind. Without
the least doubt it will accomplish just
what it was intended for, viz to per-
petuate the very system that causes
the high cost of living and panics The
people were told that this law would
prevent panics. Let US inquire by
what leGerdcmain or red tape can pam
les be prevented without removing the
cause? Before very long time some
people are going to be severely disap-
pointed in finding any relief from this
act. which was described by a demo-
cratic congressman in the house. and
who voted for it. as being neither fish,
ffesh nor good red herring, Lots of peo-
pie have been led TO believe that the
act that passed the senate is entirely
different from that passed by the
house The fundamental principle of
beth are the same. Have YOU Observ
ed that this act does not legislate for
mCney-docS not legisIate to create
money Not at all. This legislation
is to create currency and a banking
system. Where does congress get the
authority to create currency or estab
lish a banking system? Certainly not
from the constitution. Money and cur
rency are two vitality different things.
Currency is a promise to pay money.
AiOnpV is tho The
tells us that congress shall have power
to coin money. Congress is supposed
to make laws for the people. 1t is also
the duty of congress to create money
for the people. Does this act create
any money al all Not one dollar. Who
remarkable act? 1t is as plain as A
B Q. The banks are TO continue to
loan their currency for 20 years as
they have in the past 80 years. and
when they get short the government
! (the people, is to create it's promises
to pay and let the banks have # to
loan back to the dear people. Great
craftsmanship. that, isn't it? That isn't
all. The government is to redeem
these promises to pay in gold, with
only SO Is cents in gold for each dollar
of promise to pay This is the old state
bank system revived. The difference
being that it is the government instead
| of the states. How is the government
to get the 80 Is cents of gold to re-
deem with 1t is not in the missing
| business. Have to buy it then, and
| then tax the dear people to pay inter
est on the bonds to buy it with. Great
craftsmanship! 1t is pretty salty, but

BUTION.

The question of distribution Is one
which interests the whole country. It
is not the east alone where fruit and
Vegetables are left to rot because of
a lack of a market. Last fall in some
sections of this state apples were left
unpicked and yet there was a con-
slant demand for them Earlier in the
season the same was true of peaches.
Vet it was not evident in the market
that there was an over abundance of
the fruit This same thing held true
with apples in Iowa and other middle
west states where apple culture is
quite extensive and vet today apples
are selling in that very section at from
$3.50 to SO a bushel to $3.50 to s. a
barrel.
In the city of Des Moines where the
former figure holds good the Capital
says: There We're people suffering for
apples but the apples and the people
were separated DO not at once say
that the freight rates prevented the
distribution. That would not be true.
Some of the statesmen who are lone
some because they cannot think of
more battles to fight for the people
ought to take up this plain question
Of distribution and endeaVor to do
something about it. We do not place
the blame upon the government nor
upon the railroads. The blame must
be located eIsew here. Next season a
plain evil like this ought to be cor
rected. The producer and the con-
surzr ought to have a better under
standing"
When it is realized that nearly two

Pies came into New York alone last

play therein through cooperative eff
