Advocates Informal Boycott.

Persons seeing the prices rising too
high could limit the use of the articles
showing the increase. If the price
really were due to the demand the de-
mand for the articles would be less
ened in this way. If the rise were due
TO manipulation this would be an in

1t is possible some of the civic bodies
may follow MIR. Kramer's suggestion.
Mr.. Kramer says he realizes there are
certain practical difficulties which may
have to be overcome, but that he be-
lieves this may prove a permanent
means of reducing the cost of living.

HAS PLAN TO REDUCE
HIGH COST Of LIVING
S. E. Kramer Suggests Central Com
mittee From Civic Bodies
Study Food Prices.

Organization of a central committee
from various civic bodies to keep the
public informed as to what price foods
of various kinds should be, thereby
helping to keep down the high cost of
living, is suggested by Stephen E. kra-
mer. one of Washington's leading edu-
Gators and civic workers. Mr.. Kramer
said that in this manner the public
might be kept informed as to whether
manipulators were forcing up prices.
thereby allowing an informal boycott
to be placed on articles the prices of
which were being artifcially inflated.
Mr.. Kramer suggested that such
committee might determine the origi-
nal cost Of commodities. the overhead
charges. and allow for a fair profit for
the dealer. The prices which the COM
mittee considered a fair maximum
could be published. and, when the pub
lie saw one or another commodity
soaring above the specified amount.
could restrict the purchases in an in
formal but effective manner

Only Demand Governs Prices.

Prices are no longer governed by
supply and demand" said Mr.. Kramer.
Only demand counts now--the demand
made upon the consumer by the man
who holds the commodity. Prices are
not regulated upon the cost of produce
tion and distribution.
For instance. take the farmer that
comes to market. He never fixes the
price he asks for his goods by the
amount it cost him to produce it,
bring 1t to the city, plus a fair profit to
Instead. ne inquiries around
among various merchants and finds out
what they are asking for their same
lines of goods. His prices are regu-
lated accordingly.
In the case OF goods which may be
stored conditions are not regulated as
much by supply and demand as by the
prices 1t seems possible to obtain. If
a central committee were formed it
could learn the price of butter or of
eggs. for instance, when the commodi-
ties were put in storage; the storage
cost and other overhead charges could
be estimated and a fair profit allowed
for those handling them. Then fair
maximum price could be allowed.

GRAND

Victor Moore, positively one Of the

the world, will make his film debut as
the star of Jesse L. Lisky's picturiza-
tion of "Snobs," the famous society
satire by George Bronson-Howard,
which is to be the offering at the
Grand on Monday. This is the at
traction which Manager Rothapfel of
the Strand Theatre in New York City
chose for the first anniversary week
of this most important of all picture

as this stamps it as production OF
extraordinary importance and as a
comedy presentation without peer.
"Snobs" may be described
as an uproarious comedy based on an
essentially satirical idea and which is
therefore completely removed from

that Marguerite Clark, whose list OF
amazing screen triumphs continues to
grow, is to APPEAR in a new produc-
ton of the Famous Players Film com.
pany at the Grand Tuesday, to crowd
that beautiful photoplay theatre to
capacity, it will undoubtedly be of ada.
ed interest to explain that this mag.
netic stars lates appearance on the
screen is further distinguished by the
fact that the subject selected for her
current engagement is one of the
most novel and unusual rOmances
ever presented to the motion picture
public.
This five-part subject on the Para
mount Program is entitled Helene of
the North" and tells in graphic and
original manner of the vicissitudes
in the life of a young and captivating
girl, the daughter Of SaAtitled English
woman, who through a misguided
fancy weds a notorious character of
the Northwestern Canadian woods.
The tender romantic interest,
strengthened by the vigorous devel-
opment of the melodramatic aspects
Of the subject, will appear to all with
its delicacy and originality. The va
riety Of settings and situations, the
capable acting of Marguerite Clark in
the difficult role Of Helene, and the
fine support received by her from the
rest of a notable cast, including Con-
way Tearle, David Wall, Frank Lo-

total charm and appeal of the fea-

This unique subject will remain at

CHILDRENS' HOME

Over two thousand little ones
have been cared for by The Child
ren's Home Finding and Aid Society
of Idaho, during the seven years
since its incorporation by the state
Of Idaho. The support of its work
comes from three sources. Of
every three dollars expended in this
charity, one dollar comes from the
state by special legislative appropri-
alton, one dollar comes from the
counties in payment for special cases
committed by the County Commits
sioners to the Receiving Homes, and
one dollar from individuals,
churches, schools, societies. womens'
clubs, lodges, etc. throughout the
state.
The interest manifested in the
work upon the part Of the public is
nowhere more manifest than through
the annual Thanksgiving offering
by the public school children for
their little brothers and sisters who
have met with misfortune. Through
their penny and nickle offerings the
children sent into the Home this
year over twelve hundred dollars,
enabling the society to make more
abundant provision in care of its
wards than ever before.
The books of the Society are al
ways open to the public and visitors
are welcome at all times. Every
day is visitors day at the home and
every hour the doors open to any who
may wish to inquire as to methods
of the work.
AS branch of the National Home
Finding Society, the state Society
has access through the Sage Founda-
tion to the best methods of work.
The officers and members are fully
alive to the necessity of using every
known means of securing for these
dependent children the best possible
opportunities for making success
of life.

HENDRICKS FUTURE

Why do some towns grow and
others do not? This is a question
well worthy of careful considera-
tion. There are many and varied
answers to the question. The
Gazette has but one and will stick
to that until convinced of it's error.
The people who live in a place
make or retard it. 1t is purely that
and nothing else. If the people are
not progressive, enterprising and
willing to work for the general
advancement of the community,
such community is unattractive
and it fails to grow.
Every village has it's wide awake
citizens who are willing to do and
undertake anything to boost It, and
on the other hand it has it's ultra
conservatives unwilling to attempt
anything that costs dollar, no
matter how promising the returns.
These two opposing elements are
constantly battling with each other
the one to accomplish something
and the other to suppress everything
that is attempted.
Kendrick has several problems on
its hands that must find solution
street improvement including side
walks, a sewer system and library.
These things are not to be done at
once but they are ends to be attain
ed before we can feel satisfied. Ma
ture has done everything desirable
for Kendrick; man. to date, has not
done his share. Each advance of
course, will meet with opposition
but when the things we need are
once realized we will be surprised
that they were not done long ago.

WASTE PAPER

A shortage of raw material for
the manufacture of paper has so
aroused paper manufacturers in
this country that they have begun a
nation wide campaign for saving
old papers and magazines. At a
meeting of the American Pulp and
Paper Manufacturers Association
in New York City some time ago, a
resolution was adopted requesting
the department of Commerce and
Labor to aid in bringing about the
saving of used papers.
The situation is acute and grow
ing more so daily. Paper men are
beginning to realize the waste of
paper. The lack of raw material
has made it necessary to start a
campaign for conservation of old
papers and for the manufacturers
to see to it that papers are gather
ed up for use.
Only sixty.five per cent of the
pulp used in paper manufacture in
the United States is made here.
The remaining thirty-five per cent
was obtained from Europe until
the war shut off the supply. Paper
pulp is now used in Europe for the
chlorine gas it contains.
Six of the big mills in Holyoke,
Mass, were compelled to close be-
cause they could not get raw ma
terials.
White and colored paper has ad-
vanced about thirty per cent since
January l; Kraft paper, strong
wrapping paper, fifty per cent.
Kraft paper was manufactured here
from Swedish pulp. An embargo
prevents shipment of it. Several
mills are not accepting any more
1916 orders.
Why wouldn't it pay for some
church organization to get paper
baleing machine and bale all the
waste paper in this locality. The
market price is seventeen dollars a
ton or more. 4 good many tons of
waste paper go to waste in and
around Kendrick every year.
