RAINBoW'S FORMATION.

While 1t is true that the beautiful
colors displayed by the rainbow are
due to the passage of light through
raindrops, the popular conception that
the drops are directly in line between
the sun and the bow is incorrect, &C
cording to scientists. The light enters
the raindrop and is refracted and re-
flected back to form the bow. In this
passage through the drop the differ
e1r colors are produced which, blend
ed make our ordinary white light.

The Federal Trade Commission, how
ever, has declared that there has been
proflteering. Frankly, we retailers
are not in position to say whether
proflteering was responsible for pric-
IS which have been passed down to US
by the manufacturer and which we
have been compelled to pass on to the
public. 1t should be the governments
business to find out and to place the
blame where it belongs, if profteering
is shown.
Retailers Have Nothing to Fear
Retailers have nothing to fear from
such an investigation and stand ready
tc offer all the assistance possible if
the government wishes to obtain the
facts. The shoe merchants, who must
meet and deal with the protesting GUS
toner, have long deplored the rising
price of shoes and will be Only toe
glad to aid in stabilizing the industry.
In conclusion let it be said that
canvass of the leading shoe merchants
of Wisconsin show that their hands
are clean; that they are anxious for
any investigation that will make al
the facts regarding shoe prices fully
known to the public, and that they
have faith enough in the fairness of
the people of Wisconsin to feel assur-
ed that they will withhold judgment
until the true facts are known.
Respectfully submitted,
