 Of the sugar crop for next year when
 prices were right was detrimental to the interests of the sugar consumers in this country. it must nevertheless be appreciated that the move that is made by the food administration in presenting a proposed bill and urging upon the senate committee investigat- ing the sugar situation that federal control ought to be continued for am other year is proper even though the delay has already been costly.
 Production and distribution of sugar are far from normal. They will not get back to where they were before the war for a year if they do then and unless there is continuance of the control exercised by the sugar board which buys the sugar and sells -t at fixed price with the understand ing that it must be sold by whole saler and retailer at certain prices there is no telling where prices will go 10 just as soon as the existing control cea ses.
 Remove all restrictions the first of January and there will be no reduc- Cion in the price of sugar. Instead it can be expected to jump ahead by leaps and bounds. increasing possi- ply to I5.

What I'm interested in knowing, , began the young man with the twinkl- ing eyes '' what you are going to do with me now you are back from your summer at the lake.

 Yes. you did-not." said the twinkly young man. Of course a girls prin- cipal concern is men, and don't you dare deny it. If there isn't a man hanging around she worries horribly and if she has one or two she worries just as much about how to get rid of them- What else is there for q girl to think about?

A SANE REMEDY,

Few will disagree with the national defense council when it declares that the nations productive powers have not been fully used since the armis- tice- that too few goods. notably. nec- essities of life have been produced,
 that the high cost of living is due in part to unavoidable war waste. in
 crease of money and credit and that
 there has been considerable inten-
 tiona1 and unintentiona1 profteering.
 There can be no question but what
 there is need for the production of
 more goods and the advice is certainly
 timely when the council sets forth
 that the remedy for the existing sit uation is work. save. cooperate. pro- duce.
 Foo much emphasis cannot be placed upon the effect. that the indus trial activity is having upon condi- tions and has had for long time. We know what was thought of the mi1i- tary stacker in trying to avoid his duty and we have reached the point where we cannot fail to take the same attitude toward the industrial stacker. Regardless as to what the conditions were during the war they are simply being made worse by the under pro- duction, and this when we are en- deavoring to get reduction in the cost of living.
 It is realized that readjustments take some time. but it is now almost a year since the fighting stopped and yet industries that were going before and during the war are idle. There is sof course more than one reason for this but it would seem to be time to grasp the fact that the longer such conditions are encouraged. whether capital or labor is responsible for them, the worse the situation is going to become and all the time it is con- tributing to the boosting of that very l high cost Of iiving-that ev- aryone is kicking so much about.

When one of you won out temporarily you breathed fire at the other girls, and when they yanked him away from you eventually you gloomed around planning fresh onSlaughts.

FIGHTING DRUG HABIT.

In view of the great number ad- dicted to the use of drugs in this this country. the extensive illegal traf-
 ic in drugs, the efforts that are be- ing made to stop such business and U work that is being done in behalf of curing the addicts of the ha bit, it is gratifying to note that hospital maintained for this purpose by New York city has just discharged 300 pa tients as cured after undergoing treat ment for a period of two months
 This shows what can be done in the way of striking at the drug habit oth- erEise than through the prosecution of those who snluggle in the dope, sell it illegally and otherwise violate the laws But more than that it demon srates the correctness of what has been long contended that inasmuch as the habit has gotten such a hold upon the good sized army of users the need of setting about the curing of those who were not masters Of them selves ought to be seriously under taken. The shutting off of the drugs from those who had become accus- toned to them left the users of dope in 2 serious plight in their efforts to appease their appetites and they made business good for the pocket peddlers
 But with so many successfully talk ing the hospital treatment it should lend encouragement to others who would like to throw off the drug shacixles, but even with this encour- agement in the treatment of addicts it is perIect1y evident that the same of attention must be given to the prosecution of the drug law vio- lators in ordr to curb this traffic and = prevent more people from being

The shantuns Province of chins

MT Editor: There is so much talk flying about today regarding Shan tung that it seems to me a plain ex- position of the facts in the case, dis regarding the feelings of the politci- ans and those bigoted persons to whom the mention of the words. England or Japan, is akin to the waving of the red flag in the face of a savage bull would prove interesting to many per sons who have not delved any further into the question than mayn of our so-called "big politicians"
 The Shantung province is about the size of the state of. Iowa, containing some fifty-six thousand square miles of territory. It supports nearly forty million people and this in spite of the fact that less than half of it's is under cultivation. Iowa has a population of but about forty persons too the square mile, while the population of Shan tung is nearly seven. hundred in the same space. If the whole of the Unit ed States were as denseIy populated as Shantung province, instead of little more than a hundred million we should have about two thousand mill lion people to feed :
 It was back in 1898 that a murder of two German missionaries in the Shan trsng province occurred and it is to this far reaching event, Shantung toying in world politics. The murder which took place early in the year pro- liked such storm that in March of

BEAUTIFYiNG WITH TREES.

 den or board.
 Out in Indianapolis where the prop
 erty owners have been guardians and
 caretakers of the trees in the streets
 this responsibility has been shifted
 over to the park board. though it
 must be realized that there is bound to
 be a certain amount of cooperation which the property owners can still give. An interesting feature in con- nection with the powers. given the park board under the law which places it in charge of this work is that it is given power to plant trees along such streets as it may indicate.
 It is perfectly plain that the pur- pose of that city is to make it more beautiful by dressing up it's streets with the trees that add so much to their attractiveness and giving au- thority to board to go ahead with such work instead of leaving it to this. that or the other fellow to suggest or do as he sees fit It is to be expected that such a board will not only take care of the removal of dead trees. but that it will look after the trimming of the trees in the streets both for the protection of the travelling public as well as for the sake of appearances. That is what most every city expects to do now but the idea of authorizing the board to set out new trees. which may mean replacing dead ones with new ones wherever advisable. setting out a certain number along various each year. or placing them here and there for the improvement of is one that ought to be adopted in more cities It is beauti- fcation work of high order and lasting val1Ie
