Dear MIas Grey: There have
been some very interesting discus
,dons In your column. and would
like TO say word or two ON the
subject OF husbands and wives tell
ing each other all OF their pas,
lives. mistakes. etc.
As a general rule. think the
least said the soonest mendcd. hut
there are exceptions. Of course. !
think man and wife ought 20
feel free with each other 10 dis
cuss any subject together without
either one getting JEALOUS or dis
trustful. but very fcw can. - y,
IL better TO keep any past mistakes
10 themselves There Is no reason
for telling them. that I can think
Of. II win only make the average
man or woman think less Of each
other. and less Of peopl. In general.
and We want 60 gct all tho good
We can out OF this world. not evil
As far as history repeating Itself
10 concerned. l think most Of as
learn by experience. OF oourre.
there are some queer characters.
and II you don't wan, to 1.-Two with
them. don't marry them. You can

SUGAR VERSUS CANDY

Editor The Star: To tho several
criticisms that I have aorn from
time to time Of the food administra.
tor. for permitting candy makers
and vendors to ply their trade with.
out Interference or regulation. |
have seen no reply nor have there
been any restrictions placed on
them no far as one In able 70 sec.
We are limited TO two pounds Of
sugar per month for each person.
but you may buy ss much candy
an you choose to pay for. et the
exorblant price nj which II in now
sold.
n there arc such things az prof.
itocrs. the candy kitchen are 1T. :"
Some few months ago one OF those
candy kitchens on Pike st. was sell
ing peanut candy for IS cents per
pound. and now the same article is
sold Mt 40 cents. IL IL true that the
prico Of sugar and also OF peanuts
have advanced during that period.
somewhere about 10 per cent. whilst
the price OF the candy is from 200
10 400 per cent higher. This IL not
all. for there are used other In.
gradients which make for still
higher profits, though not for better
health.
That sugar should be conserved
as is being done, lis cminontly
proper, but should this be done and
Mt tho same time allow sugar 10 be
bought by the ton To make into
candy which may be bought withou,
limit. II you will pay the price? The
restriction In the one case and the
complete absence OF IT In the other
seem inconsistent IN the extreme.
