There is talk that at the coming session of the
legislature an attempt will be made to amend the
primary law and abolish the present practice fol-
lowed in many localities where the minority party
go into the primaries and often decide the result
in the hope of giving their candidate an easier
man to beat at the general election. This always
seemed to us, the only sane objection to the pri-
mary law, and it is so grave one that although a
member of the minority party in this state, we
hope to see it prevented by law from availing
itself of any advantages offered under the present
disreptuable system, which has generally failed to
accomplish the sought for result when the Novem-
Der votes were counted.

Coppering High Prices.

Prices you know have little than doubled since
July 1914 In general way, then, when the Govern
issues thousanddola Liberty Bond it gets about
half the goods would lave got for the same bond four
years ago. 1t does matter whether you say this rise
in prices is primarily due to wars immense demand for
goods imitation of currency and credit Whatever
the it will certainly not operate with past in
tensty in the future Wars demand for goods will
Imitation will be checked. Presently prices will fall.
ture prices are 1914 level it will take twice
as many goods to pay them off the government
ceived for them Wheat is two dollars bushel To get
five hundred bushels the Government issues thousand
dollar Liberty Bond Say, when the bonds mature,
wheat is worth dollar bushel and the Government tax
es Farmer Smith enough to pay off bond. Farmer
Smith must sell thousand bushels of wheat-twice
much the Government received-to pay the bond.
But suppose Farmer Smith in 1918 sold five hundred
bushels of wheat and bought Liberty Bond When the
bond natures the Government bays him thousand dol
lars with which he Can buy twice much wheat he
sold in 1918.
In short, if prices fall-as they quite certainly will
the who buys government bond now and holds it
will benefit in that the money he gets back will have
greater purchasing power than the he handed over
OF that applies to any investment bearing fixed
return The obvious moral is; Save and invest now
In the last four years investments will fixed returns
have yielded less and less purchasing power With fall
ling prices they will yield more and purchasing

Christmas PIuTns.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., cheer!

Christmas-co-opera cheer!
1t is a catching affair-this spirit
of Christmas-and nearer it appro-
aches the more contagious it becomes.
Every time that Christmas comes
around again we wonder why we
haven't cultivated the Christmas spir-
it all the year.
Here's hoping that all our soldier
boys, on land and sea, will have few
Christmas plums on the day of good
will--eyen though this year they may
be mostly in the pudding. !.
Probably the girls are saying the
same thing this year that they have
sai6 every year in the past-sWell,
I'm going to start making presents
right away for next Christmas.
We get most of the enjoyment OF
Christmas out Of the dreams that
come before and after. On, to dream
of it before it comes, to enjoy it Willie
it is here, and to appreciate it when
it has gone!
At least we are reasonably sure OF
one thing-which is, that no sol ller
will have to go without a good Christ.
mas dinner. Well, this is as it should
be, since - to pharaphase our old
friend, Mr.. Dryden-surely the brave
deserve the fare.
Not namin' any names, we are will
ling to admit that there are folks in
this world whose Christmas dinner
doesn't interest," US in the least ex-
cept that we hope they'll have plenty
Of food for reflection, and that after
the meal is over they'll get their just
desserts.

Buy 1t at Home.
3uy it at home this Christmas

Duy III dU IlOI16 U1llS O1lIlSOiudS.
It pays to trade at home in more
ways than the average person is apt
to consider at the time. Home buy
ing constitutes big help to the com
munity. 1t helps the merchant tC
pay the taxes chat keep things NOV
ing in the home town. Home trading
brings prosperity to home people thai
outside trading never can. "Spend
your money where you earn it, is a
slogan that summarizes the whole
situation. Earn your money in Eagle
River and spend it elsewhere and
local merchants would soon have to
shut up shop. Then there is the
moral side of it. Local merchants
never yet failed to treat their custom
ers right when it came to matter OF
little credit-and most all of us
like little credit at the right time.
Buying at home enables you to see
what you're getting without spending
lot of real cash for transportation
charges for goods you eventually re-
turn. When it comes to prices the
home stores can duplicate any OF
them, quality considered.
So buy it at home this Christmas.
Keep prosperity in the little home
town that all may enjoy, and keep on
enjoying its mutual benefits.
The columns of the Review are
carrying a good line of advertisements
from local merchants. Read them
over carefully and profit by their
offerings.

Suitable Clothing important.

"Still another factor in the produc
ton OF colds, pneumonia and other re-
spiratory diseases is carelessness or ig
norance of the people regarding suit
able clothing during the seasons when
the weather suddenly changes, sitting
in warm rooms too heavily dressed or
what is even more common, especially
among women, dressing so lightly that
windows are kept closed in order to be
comfortably warm. This is very in
furious practice.

The maid was very fair 10 see,
But staid, and not inclined to folly.
She stood behind the Christmas tree
And gravely hung wreath of holly.
Himself passed there, by chance, and

Her all alone, and straightway lin
gered
And she, who had been tranquil-pshaw
Became at once most butter-fngered!
The misteltoe hung overhead;
II think said the maid was fair?)
Her eyes were bright, her lips were red
And sunbeams glistened in her hair.
The tree was large, the two were hid
He turned and left her?-Yes.

did,
The maid was very wroth. Oh, dear,
She ran away with cheeks a-haming
'Twixt anger and touch of tear,
The scarlet of the holly shaming.
She told her dearest friend, I've heard,
So. shortly every body knew it;
The place whereat the deed occurred
Was near. and maidens hocked to view
it.
Himself was there, engulfed in gloom,
land he was also good to see.

Still Haunted for those maids to see;
And so they each one ran and hid,
And scorned to tarry?-Yes,

FRIDAY. DEC. Is, 1918.

AS Review readers will have noticed on the
front page Of this ISSUE it is made with new
press. What that means to those responsible for
the weekly appearance of the paper can best be app
preciated by anyone who has ever performed the
task Of getting out four pages Of home print on a
one page press. 1t can be done but we would not
recommend the experiment for those who object
to the free and unlimited use Of profane language
in their presence.
Also with this ISSUE the Review is enlarged
to the standard seven column size, and what is
now the preferred style for daily and weekly
papers, From the subscribers point of view, it
should meet with approval as they will be given
eight columns more of reading matter than
than in the past This means total of 272 inch
es reading matter weekly that Review subscribers
will gain by the change at no extra cost to them.
While we may not be able at all times, to edit
the home print pages to the satisfaction of every
one we can secure almost any thing in the way of
special features for the ready print section. At
present those features include the serial story,
condensed state happenings, complete market
report and column of temperance matter We
will be much pleased to hear from our subscribers
regarding any further extension along this line.
We also wish express our deep appreciation of
the past patronage that has tended to make the
expense involved in making this change, merely
stepping stone to an increased patronage that it
is the intention the Review and all its force to
honestly merit cordial invitation is hereby ex-
tended to our patrons Of all kinds to drop in and
inspect the new rig.

hundred thousand lives annually in
the United States If all the people
would adopt the system of fresh all

Droplet Infection Explained in Pictures
1.-THE Bureau of Public Health

a striking poster drawn by Bergman

The poster exemplifies the moderH

the health authorities would have is
sued an official dry but scientifically
accurate bulletin teaching the role OF
droplet infection in the spread of re
spiratory diseases. The only ones whs
would have understood the bulletin
would have been those who already
knew all about the subject. The man
in the street, the plain citizen and the
many millions who toll for their living
would have had no time and no desire
to wade through the technical phrase
