the worlds greatest newspaper, the
New York Times.
Bohn will speak on Revolutionary
Europa most timely topic and one
on which he speaks from great fund
of information secured at first hand.
"The Bolshevism of today is quite
like the Czarism Of yesterday" says
DR.. Bohn. Both govern without the
consent of the people. Both have alb
jured and despised the form by which
democracy creates the human indi-
vidual as social product. The Rus
STA which Is starving and dying under
Sovietism is the same Russia psyche
logically which toiled and shaved I'M
der Czarism. A people cannot put in
situations and race manners on and
on like clothes and grease paint"

All will remember the great address
on THE Mind of Germany" given by
DR.. Frank Bohn at Chautauqua last
summer, an address declared by public
and press alike as the outstanding fea-
ture of Chautauqua week despite the
other fine FEATURES including Irwin
Cobb, Col Balm, Adrian, and others.
Immediately after DR.. Bohn finished
his Chautauqua tour, he was sent on an
official mission to Switzerland, Italy,
France. and England to study the
changes that the war had wrought in
government, economics, and industry.
This mission he has completed with
his usual thoroughness and a report
of most of his findings has been pub
lished In what is often spoken of as

ONE REASON WHY
PRICES ARE HIGH
It's the Fault IF the Paper Dollar.

When man has but 500 in bank
and issues three 90-day notes for 500
each, based on the bank deposit as Sc
curity, the value Of those notes soon
falls very decidedly. In other words,
the average creditor would feel that
he ought to have two or even three
such notes before he had paper suffi-
cient to equal the value of that 500
In gold that lies in the bank.
This is approximately what has hap
pened with the worlds currency. SO
much paper has been issued in the
form of notes, credits, bonds and SINH
lar promises to pay" that its value
when compared with actual food and
clothing and other necessities has
fallen tremendously. We express this
same idea the other way around by
saying prices have gone up"
There is no reason to expect rapid
retirement Of paper promises-war
bonds the world over must run for
some years yet to come, and private
credits cannot be withdrawn soon.
Therefore this cause of high prices
will probably be with us for some time
yet-severai years, i'm fact.
In the case of farm crops, at least,
there is another very good reason why
prices are high. Many more mouths
are to be fed than formerly and this
condition also is likely to persist. War
devastated fields cannot immediately
regain their former productivity. The
farmer seems to be secure in the as
surance of good crop prices for a long
time to come.

BilIy's Queer Eating Game


pILLY and Peggy had hard job
~ tying the squirmy tails of the mice
to the tree root. The mice were so
eager to play Billy's eating game that
they couldn't keep still. Thus IL hap
pened that half tied tails would be
ierked away before the knots were fast,
and Peggy and Billy would have to do
the work all over again.
s Eek Eek We want to play the
eating game" squeaked the mice But
Gnawer had different squeak-one
that he made so low only Peggy and
Billy could hear it: Eek Eek! I
know what / am going TO eat.
He. made Peggy nervous, but his
words had a different effect on Billy.
They made Billy mad, and he tied the
knot in Gnswer's tail so tight that
Gnawer let out squeal of protest.
II guess that will hold you for a
while" said Billy. "Can any of you
get free?"
The mice squirmed and tugged, but
not one Of them could pull himself
Scan you unite yourselyes?" asked
Billy.
But the mice couldn't do this either
They were crowded so close together to
get their tails around the root that NOT
enc could twist around far enough to
untio himself.
''When do we play the eating gamer
