Time to Practice Economy.

From Commerce and Finance.
While there is general qualification over
the manner in which the people of the
United States are piling up wealth there
is a feeling that the aftermath Of our
prosperity may afford occasion for event
ia! disappointment President Hlbben, of
Princeton, last week sounded a warning
against prevalent extravaganza.
The spirit Of high devotion which actu-
ates the economy campaigns among the
peligerent people Of Europe stands out in
exalted contrast to the orgy of waste and
frivoLty which seems to have invaded all
to Podunk. No class OF society appears to
be exempt from the mania, whether 1t be
the mechanic drawing record wages in a
Bridgeport factory or the new millionaire
giving ostentatious proof of his overnight
af%fiuence.
Agricultural Iowa proudly asserts that
she has an automobile for every 16 persons
in the state. North Carolina finds less oc-

is spending annually a greater sum for
automobile tires than for schools,

Only too often this ex~travagance takes
a form that is ~vulgarly offensive. A short

a banquet in one of the leading New York

be rather neat and somewhat unusu to
have another banquet immedia tely follow

mined that no artistic or gastronomic
flourish should be lacking. At a late
hour the chefs and walters of another no.
tel were commissioned to minister to the
faded appetites of 40 guests. A company
of vaudeville performers meanwhile had
been engaged to provide histrionic accom-
