Present Conditions Force
Publishers To Safeguard
Their New Modes
OF Revenue
In Past They Have Not Regard
ed Advertising Rates AS A
Commodity Affected By
Economic Changes
From Publishers Auxiliary.


Although most country newspape
publishers hive learned that the,
can no longer afford to maintain tn,
subscription rate of a few wears 40,
and that $500 is the lowest pric,
consistent with the cost of nroduc
tion, many have still shown a hesi
fancy in increasing advertising rates
The following pertinent and timel,
editorial from the Editor and Pub
Usher should be read nv every nuh
Usher who is still asking the same
price for his advertising space as
before the war:
"The charge is frequently made
that publishers of newspapers are
not. in the accepted American sense,
practical men, MANY publisbers
themselves plead guilty to this
charge. Some of them arc rather
proud of the fact-others deplore #,
''The truth is that the business of
newspaper making involves SO much
of unselfsh public service. and re-
ouires of men engaged in it so nuch
of idealisn1, that it is diffcnlt mat
ter to adjust it to the same CONNER
cial standards which prevail in other
industries.
"Yet it is eouallv true that those
newspapers which are conducted on
the soundest lines of business policy
are the greatest forces for good in
their fields.
"The publisher who realizes that
fundamentally, the newspaper is a
manufactured product. subject to
economic laws and conditions does
not thereby disregard ethical stand
ards. Rather NAV it be eontended
that he thus vitalizes and safeguards
the spiritual assets kf his news
paper.
"a publisher is the most reluctant
of all bus;noss n,on +o ro;so +bo coll.
ing price of his commodities-to
charge more for his ADVERTISING snace
or for the paper itself. ONLY hard
necessity, the whiplash of economic
facts. drive him to this course.
"The present conditions automatic
ally enforce higher advertising rates.

HARVEST THE CROPS
AND WHIP THE KAISER.

"Hunger is the Kaiser's best weap-
on" The Y w. G. A. believes it.
This is why it Is making it possible
for high school girls in New York state
to help farmers in the fields; for col
lege girls in the Middle West to do
general farm work; for Polish women
in New Jersey to pick potatoes and for
boys and girls across the continent In
Washington to gather fruits.
All this work is part of the cam
paign to 'save the crops and beat the
Huns"
It is the aim Of the Y. W. G. A. to
demonstrate the best ways of housing
and feeding farm laborers and so take
the burden from farmers wives.
In all the places where women are
working under the direction of the Y.
w. G. A. a house is provided for the
laborers, with supervisor in charge.
The supervisors business is to make
all business arrangements with the
farmers and provide the food. If chill
dren accompany their mothers, a train
ed woman looks after them while their
mothers are in the fields.

BOMB PARLOR FOR
AMERICANS IN PARIS

"a series Of unearthly walls from
the siren that announces an air raid
and we are out of our beds and down
in the bomb parlor in double quick
time" writes a woman who lives at
the Hotel Petrograd in Paris. "Many
times have made the flight twice in
night. But you get used to it and
drop off to sleep again as soon as you
get the chance.
"The bomb parlOr' Is one OF the
unique features of the Petrograd. 1t
is not it's official title-a few of us
have named it that. 1t is good sized
room at the bottom Of the house and
has no outside walls. Once there, we
feel as safe from harm as we ever did
in our beds. We spend the time be-
tween the 'alerte' that turns us out Of
bed and the all clear signal that tells
Us to go back, with games, reading and
visiting. have seen Red Cross nurses
on the floor fast asleep in spite of the
awful din of the bombs and guns.
More kinds of uniforms in all
stages of freshness and fading come
into the Petrograd, which is the Amer
lean Y. w. G. A. hostess house of
Paris than any other place in France
Soldiers and sailors meet their women
friends there; there are the Red Cross
nurses, the women Of the Signal Corps,

naturally, and all the rest. lit is new
er ending, strangely shifting throng.
Besides being unique for it's bomb
parlor' the hotel serves butter for
breakfast and has bathing facilities
for it's resident guests at all hours.
These are enough to give lasting fame
to any house in France at this time.
Last winter it was known as the
house with warm rooms
The Hotel Petrograd Of Paris is one
of the three Y. w. G. A. hostess houses
In France. The others are at Bourges
and Tours. The social rooms of all
are open to any woman or girl at any
time of day or evening to meet her
men or women friends, rest, enjoy So
cial intercourse, read or write.

FOREIGN WOMEN LEARN
AMERICAN WAYS

A corps Of translators and inter-
prefers in fifteen different languages
are employed by the War Work Coun-
Gil of the Y W. G. A. They instruct
foreign-born women whose husbands
have been called into the service in
such intimate questions as the laws
relating to rentals and labor, in the
care of children and in how to use
American foods in dishes adapted to
foreign tastes and present high prices.
This last work is done in cooperation
with the Government Food Conserva-
ton Commission and the Home Dem
onstration Work Of the U. S. Agricul-
tural Department.
Leaflets are sent out and articles
circulated through the foreign newspa-
pers. One of the efforts is to tell these
strangers of the resources for them
selves and their children which this
country provides.

Y. W. C. A. Helps French
MunitiOn Workers

Twelve social centers, or foyers, as
they are called by the French, are run
by the American Y. W. G. A. for girls
and women who are working in the
great munition factories of France.
Two of these are in ST. Etienne and
three in Lyon. All have cafeterias
connected with them.
Girls and women who work in these
factories are Of all classes and ages,
but all are French The men en-
ployees are of every nation-Chinese,
Cingalese, Algerian, Moroccan and
Portuguese. Many of the women are
refugees. Multitudes have lost every
relative and friend. There are daugh-
tiers, mothers and grandmothers among
them.
These foyers are the only place ex-
cept the street that the majority have
In which to spend their out of work
hours. Barracks for sleeping, eating
and bathing are the only provision
made for the comfort of the workers
by the management of the factories
The women and girls meet their
men and women friends in the foyers,
sew, write letters, press out their
waists, stitch on the sewing machines,
read and rest. The rooms are their
homes. Games and entertainment are
provided and educational classes. OF
the classes the English ones are by far
the most popular.
All these Towers arc sanctioned hv
the French Ministry of War.

Some citizen Of the United States
of America bought Liberty bond;
perhaps 1t was only fifty dollar bond.
A portion Of the money loaned to
the Government by the purchaser of
this Liberty bond bought the steel
helmet this soldier Is holding up for
your Inspection. The soldier, when
he put 1t on, called It "tin hat"
The soldier wearing this '4tIn hat"
which was bought for him with Lib
erty Loan money wore It in the bat
tie. A half dozen bullets ratified
against II and the "tin hat' tossed
them off and the soldier kept on fight
ing.
Anyone Of these bullets would have
stopped the soldier, perhaps forever.

along and smashed up against the

the steel gave way letting daylight
through the hat, but nevertheless the
steel was good enough and tough
enough to SO pause that piece Of
shrapneI in it's flight that after it got
through it only made scalp wound in
the soldiers head.
The army surgeon, maintained by
Liberty bonds, quickly bandaged up
the head and the soldier is wearing a
Liberty Loan smile.
Now you people who hesitate about
buying Liberty bonds, just stop and
look at this picture. This lad Is
fighting for you but where would he
be If somebody, perhaps somebody In
your own home town, had not put up
the money to the Government that
the Government might buy him this
good "tin hat" After you have pom
