Editor of The Washington Herald:

Herald said several days ago that
leaders in Congress admitted that
this victory foreshadows the allowance
of increases ranging from Is to 20 per
cent"
Why 50 much jubilation over such
an. as l believe, inadequate increase?
Have prices of the necessaries of life
increased only Is to 20 Per cent? Also.
if the low salaries were too low for
a fair support of a family years ago,
that is another reason for a greater
increase than even 20 per cent.
Too small an increase now will only
presage, probably, another stout de-
mand for another increase How can
these families live-or is it considered
unnecessary for them to live-with
any comfort? How can they work with
proper energy, satisfaction and spirit
under such Conditions?
Ask an $3.50 clerk IL he could sup
port himself and family on a salary
of $3.50, which would be just about the
salary of a formerly $40 clerk raised
10 per cent. last year and, say, 20 per
cent. this year. Would be not feel
like exclaiming: mo, sir! It could not
be done. I can hardly save anything
out of my present salary"
Ask Congressman the same dues-
ton. Enough said. Proper salaries
for government clerks means more
money in the pockets of the business
houses of Washington also. Again,
the needed increase should become
payable at once after it is granted.

Apron Strings.

Girls and boys have ever shied at the bugaboo
of being dubbed by their companions, tiled to their
mothers apron strings"
In youthland no one stands in more dsfavor
than those who are so restrained. Afflicted with
their usual shortsightedness these youths unfor-
tunatey cannot catch vision of the fasty approach
ing day when they will thank their parents for
such an activity.
Billy Sunday, with characteristic vigor, "lam-
basis" older men and women for expounding this
erroneous spirit regarding apron strings. He is
right.
Butl
There is such thing as tying these same apron
strings in too hard knot and Of refusing to release
them after adolescence.
Sharp example of this fact was recorded last
week when young high school student of fifteen
who falling into too mannish environment,
<chaffed at his hitherto secure apron strings and
after -considered parental rebuke unceremoniously
cut them completely and disappeared from home
Today he is in the army. youth of fifteen.
His parents hands tied, for should they dvulge
his true age their son would be indicted for per-
jury. No apron strings will reach him again. Too
late, his parents realize their mistake.
Apron strings must be tied with forethought
and unknotted thread by thread as the young
woman or young chaffs for his bit of relax
alton from the rigid parental reign.
TIE THE APRON STRINGS, but anticipate
development.
