LET THE WOMEN ALONE

n NNUMERABLE we'll meaning people through
out the country are taking the women to task
- for their vagaries in dress.
They point to the fact that the modern dress
exposes a few inches of feminine charms, and they
see as consequence the prompt decentralization of
the world.
But why all of this hubbub over what woman
wears?
Is her form one of which she should be
ashamed? Ask the men!
Eve was garbed in flowing hair and fig leaf,
yet Adam appears not to have been disturbed at this
fact She was Eve, and that was sufficient for him.
She represented the most beautiful thing in all
the world to hinn-and from the days of Adam the
verdict of man has not changed.
The artist sees nothing imn1odest in the woman
who poses for him, because it is art.
The savage respects the woman who is clothed
only from the waist to the knee because it is the
tom of his country-and custom makes right.
The evil we fear is often in the eye of the
critic and not in the object of his criticism.
"Let him who is without sin cast the first stone"
And, in the meantime, let the women alone
bless 'em

1t may do harm to many. But the greatest harm
of all is that which springs from mind Of hate and
poisons the heart in which it finds lodgment
It kills the 10y of life and fills the road to
eternity with impossible BARRIERS beyond which
only the fit in mind and heart may 60.
At the Christmas of 1919 let us all forgive and
forget, and begin the new year with JOY in our
hearts and good will toward all people.

NECESSITY FOR THRIFT

u SING every channel, the United States gov
ernment is supplying all pressure possible to
relieve menace to the nations finances
threatened by the tremendous outlay Of money for
Christmas presents this year. Reports to the gov
ernment indicate that Christmas shoppers are
spending one hundred sixty-five millions of dollars
per day which, for the shopping days of December,
would approximate three and half billions of dol
lars for mostly luxuries.
It is an elemental maxim of economics that
where there is demand there will be production. The
production of luxuries at this particular tme-that
is, the of capital for the production of luxur;es
at this time-does constitute menace.
The war destroyed billions of capital. There
FORE short those billions of capital for the
production of the worlds needs. That is why basic
y the prices of necessities not only already out
of reach but threaten to rise to further unheardof
heights. Men who study these problems, not only
for the government but in the universities of the
country, dare not predict what will happen when
are hungry.
We must, if we are to save ourselves, begin right
now to save our money. Recognizing the storm
that is brewing, the United States government is
continuing to harp upon Thrift. 1t is sound sense
and sound of economics. There is only one way by
which we will replace and increase our capital and
that is by saving it, and the people-everyone-
the ones who must save it.
AS vehicle or method the government is sell
ing War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Ger
tficates, securities of the United States paying
per cent compounded quarterly, and is asking every
one of u.s. man, woman and child, to give at least
part of our Christmas presents in these securities.

Commenting the other day on the
purchase by the Animal Husbandry
Department of the College of Agri-
culture of a bull calf for 5000, Dean
Working said: GAS prices of common
bull calves go, this looked at first
like fancy price for a short yearling.
But DR.. Williams declared that we
have secured an uncommonly fine and
promising calf at an uncomonly low
price. So I tried to be satisfied Later

judges of Herefords who told me that
we were fortunate in our calf; for he
is easily worth a thousand dollars.
Then I did not ned to try to be salts

dom Of the men who selected and
bought the young white-face. We
shall continue to boast.
"But I have since had to think of
another item of cost of our calf
the cost Of keeping him till he is old
enough to earn his own way in the
Hereford world. The men who
know tell me it is costing $2.12 a
day for feed for our calf, also that we
dare not econimize on feed because of
the danger of Transforming our pure
bred and high-quality calf into an in
ferior bull. So we must spend our
$2.12 a day for feed and give good
care at additional cost. 1t is easy
to believe that if we count all costs
our $500 calf will become 1000,
dollar bull in a little more than a
year. Of course he will be worth his
cost-if we give him proper care!
"At the University dining hall it
costs sixty cents a day to feed boy.
Of course, can say noSning about
the first cost of the boy. Besides,
there is the additional cost Of 27 cents
per day for room. But the serious
thing to consider is the danger of
producing an inferior man out of a
nigh class boy. To avoid that danger
we must train the boy as well as we
can; for training the boy is no less
than feeding the bull calf"

Newsy Notes of About Arizona

prescott Journal Miner Dec. 1881
Miss Milda Muender, teaching the
public school at Cornville, writes an
interesting letter in which her theme
was the big floods that passed down
Oak creek short time ago, and the
havoc that threatened many homes in
being washed away. Among the in
cidents mentioned was the thrilling
experience of Messrs. Pitchour and
Girdner, who were caught on the op-
posite side of the stream to their
homes, where they were held up for
three days an unable to cross.
1t is said that they were kept sup
piled with food tossed over to their
side of the creek, and that they slept
at night under saddle blankets, al
though these features were not speci-
fically mentioned in the letter. These
farmers attempted to go to the head
of the creek to cross, but were baffled.
Another lively happening was the
tearing down of the home of Mr..
Hurst, as it was in the path of the
big overflow that was melting away
the formation, but it was saved, and
will be rebuilt above the high-water
mark of the flood. Many acres OF
valuable farming land along the creek
were mopped up, some being improv-
were opped up, soc being improv-
ed. All creek crossings are gone and
the damage done will aggregate many
thousands of dollars. There never
had been known such vast amount
of water to pass down that stream.

THE TRUTH


A BARTON HEPBURN, chairman of the ad-
"A. visory board of the Chase National Bank
lays emphasis on the Point that the cost Of
production and the cost of living have continued in
creasing since the armistice with unabated vigor
eve cannot" he says, continue to reduce the hours
of labor and still supply the quantity of goods which
the world demands. We cannot continue to increase
the cost of production and still be able to compete
with other nations in the markets of the world.
These causes will operate to curta business. Men
will not make goods that they cannot sell at profit
That there will be in the not distant future curtail-
ment of business and recession in cost and prices
