Peanuts bring from 75c to S1.25 a

ENTRAVAGANCE AND
METHODS OF MARKETING
CAUSE OF Fl. c. l.

Editor of The Journal:
Being human and having the ap-
petite consequent thereto YOU have
probably noticed the phenomenal al
iteration in the inscriptiCn upon the
price tag of necessl- S of existence
the past few month: and how far
short the weekly st.p.nd Of eEpend-
ed labor falls of meeting the indebt-
edness. Having been forCibly i'm
pressed with the fact you have also
perused, read and meditated upon
the wonderful explanations for tine

and yet you are not convinced, for
the same printed page recOunts rec
ord crops and unprecedented har-
vests. In perplexity you shrug that
part of your corporate being where
on wings are supposed to sprout and
blame it on the war.
Storage of food. manipulation Of
markets by the INSCRIPTIONS, re
duction of planted areas, restriction
of ranch and grazing sites-all are
contributing factors to the exorbit-
ant price we pay to keep the home
commissary supplied. Conceded even
| by skeptics, cynics and pessimists.
Another influence should be consid-
cred as we seek causes for old H. c.

GERMAN ATTITUDE TOWARD US.

Germany's blatant assumption OF superi-
ority over the rest of the world-morally,
intellectually, economically, politically and
spiritually-has been dinned into our ears
pretty thoroughly during the past few
years. Bernhardi's book, Nietzsches phil
osophy. Reventlow's ruthlessness. are all
based .on that protasis. Bethmann-
Hollweg has repeatedly uttered the same
message. 1--WE are the chosen people, all
others are barbarians therefore every
measure. however barbarous, in extermin-
ating them, is iustihabe.' But never has
the philosophy been reduced to such con-
crete, such insulting form as by Hermann
Won der Hohe. whose letter to the Cincin-
natl Times-Star we reproduce on page Z,
Declaring that American democracy is
a failure because it is the rule Of the I'm
fit the ignorant" he says it will be elimin-
ated from the face Of the universe when
it comes in contact with the higher type,
namely, Kaiseris1n. Your nation can not
endure, because it is built OF the riff-raff Of
the globe he adds THE kaiser and his
lieutenants, the kings and grand dukes Of
the empire, alone are gifted with the nee
cssary qualities to insure stable form of
government"
Germans, he says, ARE the blonde
survivors in the last stages of the struggle
for e2tsitence-the supermen, heralded by
Nitzsche, destined to rule over mankind, .
and lie seeks to fire his countryment time
when the United States and Germany are
at constructive war, with this rallying cry:
1t is to be hoped that from now on all
Germans will remain united until Germany
F2s fulfilled her sacred mission viz: the
elimination Of the unfit races by assimila-
tor .-..-- ..
When we remarked several DAYS ago
that the war had reduced itself to a battle
between democracy and autocracv. we did
not expect such immediate confirmation
from a German source.
The few excerpts given here can not do
the letter justice. They sound like soft-e fan
tastic dream, some monstrous burlesque
but Perusal of the original will show the
deadly earnestness of the writer. His one
fear was that the papers would mot dare
to print it-he wanted to get the message
before his people. Though La Toilette
Stone and their submarine crew are highly
commended, pacifsts generally will be
shocked to learn how low even they rank
IN the Teutonic estimation-not possessing
the "redeenling drop of German blood il
(their) veins, and to these the message
may be an intellectual eye-opener. as tht
disclosure of that attempted racial plot wa.
a political.

YOUTH.

Youth! The most wonderful thing in
life-the only thing; one that is within
the reach of everyone for youth is not a
question of years, youth is frame OF
mind.
The wrinkles. the failing strength. the
whitening hair. the weakening teeth. 81
age, are mere details. like the differences
in complexion, height. weight, and muscle
of twenty-one.
As the Japanese can think themselves
out OF life, so we can think ourselves old
Age is the anteroom Of death, and the
Japanese, then, are simply faster thinkers
than we--a figure, however, more foolish
than Polonius
Look around YOU, if YOU doubt this phi
losophy of life-see the old young people;
who in their teens. even, are faded, unin-
terested, hopeless. Blind to the sunshine,
deaf to the birds, unable to appreciate the
perfume of the violet, age with them is
simply official recognition of what has al
ways been their condition. Because they
were without purpose, their minds. I'M
stored with the memories Of achievement,
are as the bereft altar Of temple. erected
to a holy use, but found lacking. and
abandoned unsanCtified. From a spiritual
| standpoint such pop1e are charnel houses.
But see the young old people: who
awake with smile, to whom each budding
rose is as great miracle, although it has
manifested itself million times, as when
in childhood they first made the discov-
| cry; to whom all life is as superb an adj
venture as Cortez', and the reward as soul
| satisfying as his, when silent upon peak
in Darien, he contemplated the azure mar
| veil
| Don the deadly bonnet, affect the shape
| less pantaloon, rrminate on ailments-if
YOU would be old; but if YOU would be
young, feel young, think Young, act young,
! There is as much difference between the
beauty of a ten minute walk and the
beauty Of the drug store as there is be
! tween the painted sunrise and the proud
flush of Mother Nature. Spend less time
in the automobile if you would avoid the
wheeled chair More decrepitude is due
to laziness than fatigue; these are mere
breakdowns from. self-indulgence than
from OverwOrk. Seek the company of
kings and poets and inventors and artists
and statesmen and musicians and church,
men in your library, for with their purpose
you will be fired to greater purpose-and
that is what distinguishes people fom veg
ctables Age is experience, efficiency
happiness, for age in a life rightly lived is
the realization OF youth.
