THE PRICE OF SUGAR.

The recent jumps that sugar has taken in price have
caused great many to fifteen dollar bag sugar
Of course in times it is hard to say to what price
foodstuffs will reach but at present there is nothing
convince the thoughtful reader that sugar will reach fiji
teen dollars bag In fact ought not to be permitted
to go any higher under present conditions 1t ought to
be made to reach lower level The fluctuations appear
to be matter of pure manipulation and that is something
that ought to be stopped The general public the repre-
sentatves of the ninety Millions the that produce
our food and necessities in times of peace and fight
battles in times of ought not to be imposed upon in
any such way Under such conditions is time for the
government to step in and stop the manipulation.
The sugar manufacturers apparently not to blame
and we of the opinion that they will approve of the
government taking hand in it. Such excessive fluctl-
atoms cannot bring benefit to the sugar manufacturer
in fact they only bring him grief and trouble in the
long rum The manipulation profits at the expense of the
general public while the manufacturer is obliged to bear
the odum 1t is to be hoped that the government will
take good stiff hand in the matter and see that such
imposition is stopped

KINDNESS TO ANIMALS WEEK.

Amid the shock of declaration, the regular in
terests of life seem small and ting Yet ordinary
lines of civic and humane work must 60 for many
day before peace is declared So in this moment of tur
moi attention should be called to Kindness to Animals
Week. April 1921.
This observance started two years ago by the
Humane societies. chiefly for the educational work in the
schools. Every of domestic animal should Of
celebrate Kindness to Animals Week for 81 weeks
in year. But to get the attention of children special
observance like this is useful.
Daily life is full of maltreatment of animals. People
don't desire to inflict suffering but they simply don't
think And it seems strange in particular, that an ami
NAL that performs much of the worlds hard work as
the horse should often be the worst neglected The
business welfare Of the depends keeping him
we'll But too frequently he is i'll fed starveling and
often sufferer from heat and cold.
Children should be taught to feel affection for dumb
beasts They should be shown how with little kind care
they can win the friendship of these animals. By
thoughtful attentions they develop personal tie Of
affection with animal like the horse who under such
care becomes more docile and ready for his tasks.
Once childs eyes opened to study of animals he
gets interest in the world He finds pleasure in the
comfort and well being of these members of the family
and feels indignation at neglect and abuse If these ideas
can be thoroughly nsted into the minds of the children
the next generation will get efficient service out of
these aborous helpers and it will enjoy their companion
ship more.

Smiths words mean quite as muchcare, prudence and

the consumption Of food indulgence of the desires for

POINTS THE WAY.

Mrs Woodrow Wilson, the first lady of the land Mrs
Marshall the second lady Of the land and the wives of
the members Of the Presidents cabinet have gone on
ora pointing the way of living to their sisters through
out this hitherto land of plenty They have decided
reduce their scale of living the simplest possible form
In order to set example to other of the country
"They have agreed to pledge themselves to buy mex
pesve clothing, simple food and to watch and prevent
all kinds Of waste. Today they informally appealed to
all the of the country to join them not only as
individuals but by organizing prevent possible suffer-
ing later on"
This is very commendable act on the part of these
ladies and that should strike responsive note
throughout the nation. 1t is along the same line as thai
suggested by President Smith at the recent Mormon con-
ference. These prominent women, and President Smith
sense the truth that mot all the patriots are those to take

JAPAN COMMANDS SEA

And Dutch East Indies.

San Francisco. Nov. 1.-THE !oo,-
900 square miles of territorial wa
tiers in the Pacific captured by japan
from Germany give the command OF
the Pacific to the Mikado's land.
Will Japan be able to keep this
wedge of empire she has driven IN
to the South Seas, extending from
the Philippines nearly to Hawaii and
to the equator?
While at first it was not expected
that Japan would operate beyond
the China Seas, the world learned by
October, 1914, that Nippon had seiz-
cd all the German islands in the
Pacific north of the equator.
The British already had occupied
the portions of the Kaiser's colonial
empire north of Australia. Though
there was talk Of Japan turning
some of the island groups she cap
tureu over 10 DIllaiil w JS
troll until the wars end, today MP
non remains substantially supreme

These archipelagos run out 'ntt

Meeting with the Marshall Islands
which are but 1900 miles from fla
wall at the closest point.
The MarshallS turn southeastern;
toward the equator in two parable
chains. The SO islands in the two
rows total 100 square miles Of lana
upon which live about $4,000 people
The four archipelagos, as one
