ONE REASON WHY.

Alexander Koski of Marquette was
found dead in front of his home Sun
day morning. There was round hole
at the base of his skull about the size
of an ordinary revolver bullet. The
deceased conducted a candy store and
came home Saturday night intoxicated,
and 1t wasn't through eating candy
that he was in this condition. The
man stumbled about the house, tried
to get into his wife's bedroom, but
she, knowing his condition, had locked
the door. There was man with him.
The mans son, returning from work
at about eleven that night found his
father sitting in one of the down
stairs rooms and afterward he heard
him go out of the house at about one
o'clock in the morning. Whisky was
the cause of his death. He evidently
fell while in his drunken condition,
fracturing his skull.
1t is one of thousand reasons why,
the people voted dry.-Ishpeming

more than 10000 refugees and pow

contents Of each parcel covered a

to layettes for children yet unborn.
Part of the supply came from this
country, part from stocks In neutral

agents have been able to satisfy
a portion Of their needs, and part
from the italian market, now nearly
exhausted. In addition, orders for
food were distributed to persons whose

WHEN THE SALOON is A BARRIER
TO LABOR,


Because Bill Jones "boozes" he's
worth $22.59 day. Because jim Smith
is sober and clear-headed he's worth
$3.50 a day. But the boss must strike
fair average, so he pays each $500
a day.
If there are two men like drinking
Bill Jones in the shop, and one like
sober Jim Smith, the average wage
viii probably be $2T5 day. But If
there are two men like sober Jim
Smith and only one like drinking Bill
Jones, their wage will likely be 1925
day.
The more men like drunken BIZ
Jones there are in d shop, the lower
will be the average wage. The more
men like sober Jim Smith, the higher
the wage.
Anyway that's the way the ordinary
boss figures 1t. He must strike fair
average, because he has all kinds of
men in the shop.
In such a situation there can be- no
such thing as personal liberty" No
man has the right to degrade his fell
low-workers through his personal hab-
its.-Charles Stelzle.

HIGH COST OF GOVERNMENT

teen Years.

Washington. Now we have the high
cost of government. 1t has risen 80
per cent In the last 10 years, accord
ing to recent department of com
merce report on financial conditions
of 219 cities in the country.
The report shows that the average
American city is In q healthy financial
condition, run on good, buslness-like
lines. The total revenues were 81 $685.
537,142, or $3204 per capita, and total
expenditures 1921, 491, $50, or $24.70 per
capita. The total outlay for the 219
cities was $3.50 529,99O, or 1891 per
capita. From this last returns could
be expected which, on the average
would still further reduce the expen-
ditures.
Next to taxes, the largest item Of
which was the tax on the liquor traf-
flc, the greatest source of revenue for
the cities was public service enter
prises, the bulk Of which came from
public water systems, which doubled
the amount of money spent on them.
The net indebtedness of New York
city alone, $9S7,84761O, was three
flfths as great as all other cities Of
over 10000 inhabitants taken together.
The per capita Indebtedness for Chi
cago was $28.70. and st. Louis $25.07,
both of these cities having an indebt-
edness which was smaller than most
Of the small cities and far below the
large ones.

To shade the eyes or not to shade
the eyes, that Is the question to be
decided when the quest is for auto
bOnnets for fall motoring. There are
several requisites that the successful
bonnet or hat or cap must fill. First
of all it must stay on; no matter what
winds may blow or how much the driv-
or manages to exceed the speed hImlt.
10 wobble about or come off Is the I'M
forgivable sin In a piece Of motor head
wear. Besides this indispensable fea-
ture-and equally lmportant-the bon
net must measure up to its wearer's
ideas Of becomingness.
Comfort in all our apparel is an at
tribute that Git almost goes without
saying) is required of 1t today. Near
Nv all the hats and bonnets for mo-
toring have small brims, or visors at
the front for shading the eyes, but
there are some turbans and caps that
are brimless. They are in the mi
nority: SO it is evident that if the ques-
ton of shading the eyes or not We're
put to the popular yote-the eyes
would have IT. Nevertheless, the
.Blue Devil" tam Is so dear TO the
heart of young Americans that it en-
ters the ranks of fall hats for motor
wear. II sticks to the head as secure
