Little does man realize the debt
he owes the COW. During the dark
ages of savagery and barbarism, we
find her early ancestors natives OF
the wild forests of the old world. AS
the bright rays of civilization pene-
trated the darkness of that early
period and man called upon the cow,
she came forth from her seclusion
to share in the efforts that gave us
greater nation and more enlight-
ened people!
For two thousand years she has
been the co-partner of man, sharing
alike in his prosperity and adver-
sity, responding nobly to all that was
done for her. until through her de-
velopment she has become an idol
of the people.
In 1893, when Columbus made his
second voyage to America, the COW
came with him-and from that time
to the present day she has been a
most potent factor in making this,
our own country, one of the great
nations.
Her sons helped till the soil of our
ancestors and slowly moved the pro-
ducts of the farm to market. They
went with man into the dense for

AN UNWARRANTED ADVANCE.

The federal trade commission has completed
an inquiry into the cost of bread baking ano
distribution and measures of cooperation to
reduce the price of bread will shortly be recon-
mended by the food administration department
of the government to bakers, retailers and con
sumerS. That is the information sent out from
Washington. and is the first indication that the
federal trade commission has had the bread
question under its immediate consideration. IN
the meantime, New York City bakers promise
that as soon as flour reaches eleven dollars
barrel eight cents will buy fourteen-ounce
loaf Future quotations on flour are not quite
a dollar above eleven dollars a barrel. Our
breadmaking could well suffer some changes III
the interest of cheapness and the advance OF
one hundred per cent. in the price OF the loaf
formerly sold for five cents appears to be I'M
warranted.
1t is beyond conception of fairness why those
who remain at home should exact the highest
profits possible simply because conditions are
such that they can do it. In time like this IN
stead of each one seeing how much he can
make, he ought to put forth a reasonable effort
to see how much he can do for his country. Tins
applies to those in all lines Of trade, but IN this
instance especially to bakers.

The COW is mans greatest bene-

The COW is life itself to thousands
of little ones stranded upon the hol-
low hearts and barren bosoms of
modern wollanhood.
We love her for her gentleness,
her beauty, and her usefulness. Her
loyalty has never weakened-and
should misfortune overtake us, as
we become bowed down with the
weight of years, we know that In the
COW we have friend that was never
known to falter. She pays the debt.
She saves the home.

SLANG
BEATS SPIES
Two College Men Talked State
Secrets and German Agents
Were Baffled at
Lingo.

NEW YORK, Oct. AT gather
ing OF Princeton graduates and I'M
dergraduates in New York recently
one of the snappiest tile 7tories OF
the war was related by Princeton
graduate just returned from ambul-
ance service in France. It had to
do with the difficulty of outwitting
German espionage in Belgium, and
how it was managed through the
medium of an unrecognized language.
Four months ago, the narrator said,
the system of espionage had been
about seven stratas deep. Spies
watched the Belgians, spies in the
ranks watched the German officers,
spies watched the spies who were
watching anybody and it became ap-
parent that anyone who might sneeze
would be duly reported in Berlin.
Just at this time one Princeton
ambulance driver heard from what
seemed to be reliable source that
German had attempted the life Of
President Wilson in Washington. 1t
was but rumor, and he did not men,
ton 1t to anyone or have any desire
to discuss it until he happened to
encounter another Princeton man
whom he had long known. When
they met the driver who had heard
the rumor looked. about and saw that
ears aplenty were set for their con-
versation He talked casually with
his friend and wondered as he talked
what language he might use to I'm
part his information. He knew a
little Of the Italian tongue and
thought of that. But as he glanced
about him there seemed a face for
every language. To head his friend
off to secluded place would excite
suspicion and so he finally decided
to tell him the news in American
slang He spoke as follows:
Don't let the glittering delcates-
sen fall for this noise I'm itching
to ease you some dope and don't
care to be beaned or tipped into the
hossgow for chirping it. When it's
across can the return chatter and
remain a dumb Isaac 7 have been
hepped that upstairs over Dixie
pretzel birdie has tried to Czolgoz the
former papa Of Old Nassau"
For moment his friend looked ar
him with knit brows and then, even
as the spies stood with ears out at
acute angles,
I'm right in your pocket Steve"

WAR COSTS AND RETURNS.

The publication Of comparative table show
ing the war costs in total and as borne by the
several nations has led to some comment by
commercial experts. In the Chicago Tribune a
pessimistic view is taken by an editorial writ
er because the war is costing Germany less than
it is costing the entente. But the national
debt of Germany has almost doubled during the
war period, and, besides, it would seem just to
include in Gernany's war cost some of the ex-
penditure, covering the last forty years, on her
military establishment. For England France,
tia Y and Russia a great part of the enormous
war expenditures have been made in doing
what Germany had done before the war began.
With US this is wholly true. We are the great
spending nation in the war now, but we have
many arrears to pay to past unpreparedness.
Moreover, our billions which mount up in
staggering totals need not discourage us in the
light OF past experience The per capita debt
imposed on the north in the civil war was
three hundred and forty-two dollars and this
was representative of thirty nine per cent. of
the total wealth Of the north IF we were to
put the thirtyfve billion dollars into the war as
some pesslmsts hold up before us as a men
ace, 1t would be but thirteen per cent. Of our
total wealth.
There is great need of economy; we shall
need all we nave TO wage the war and all we can
get to maintain ourselves prosperonslv after
the war. But expenditure of money will no
economy for us, if it lessen the expenditure Of
life. The real menace of the war Is vbo+ = =;
costing in lives. Whatever aid we give TO 9th.
ers, whatever investment we make in no+o,;o1
things to shorten the time needed 70 dofoo+
Germany, is money spent to save the livos &c
our young men who fight. There is no need Of
alarm at war costs when the money is viso1,.
used and our purpose is forwarded by what i
huys. -
