"a Story Never Loses in
Carrying"
but sometimes it grows a tail.
This is a tale of shoes.


Without enough shoe leather ito 60
around" and with all the world buying in
competition, the price of leather rises before the
shoemaker gets it into shoes.
The same thing exists as to goat skins for
fine gloves, wool and other articles that enter
i into the worlds wants.
Tens of thousands of men and women
abroad are reported to be barefooted and
larger number wearing wooden shoes.
If Americans must wear leather shoes, they
can only get them, with high-cost leather and
advanced wage rates and increased expense OF
transportation added to the bill; and then this
is true tail to the story.
The poorer grades of leather and cloths
and silks for wearing apparel wear out sooner,
and have to be renewed or look shabby.
Better qualities of the good old-fashiOned
kind last longer, always look better and are
cheaper in the end. 1t is fact, also, that rents
of factories, expense of tools and machinery
and government taxes add to costs.
If the larger wages being paid are to be
earned, it must be by an increased production
of the wOrkmen.
Shorter hours and higher wages will, of
course, lessen output and add to consumers
costs.
Having two pairs of shoes and giving rest
days to the "Other pair" and taking better care
of our things, will save money and aid in
reducing the scramble for what there is not
enough made of.
One way to effectually reduce prices is to
not consume so much and let goods of every
kind become plentiful.
If we can eat less, we can wear less; and
lower selling rates will appear little by little.
The following information paragraphs are
given upon reliable authority:
1. The shoes exported at low figures
were odd lots, some lots of broken sizes,
some rejected as not up to order, and
mostly unstable in any frst-class
store.
2 2. A store like this stands beside it's
customers to take every advantage
Obtainable, in gathering it's supplies, ,
and so far as shoes are concerned, our
manufacturers will, if asked, sign afi-
davits that our orders were placed
many months ahead of our needs, to
take advantage of the much lower costs
., of raw materials in that way, and thus
keep down prices to our patrons to the
lowest point all the time ~,
1t is fair and right to say this on the eve
of Labor Day. >.
With full knowledge of the actual facts,
| am proud and pleased to say that our entire
business organization, in Philadelphia and New
York, Paris and London and elsewhere, has held
determined patriotic hand to keep down prices
unequal living wages. ..'>

at present. The rental of $250.O0 will
include two additional rooms on the
second floor, and all furniture in use
on both second and third floors cx-
cepting that used in the lodge room.
/ also understand that the Elks will
use the rear entrance to the building.
If / am in error in the matter,
please advise me.
: I shall be pleased to present this
matter to the Board of Regents, as
well as the budget board in connec-
ton with appropriation matters relat-
ing to the Dickinson Normal school.
Very truly yours,
Charles Liesslhan,
*, Secretary.
These two letters will explain fully
the understanding between the Elks
and the Board Of Regents as to the
rental of the building.
Neither the people of Stark county,
of Dickinson, nor the Elks, nor any
other person is doing anything of any
nature to hinder in any manner what
soever the obtaining by the Board OF
Regents of suitable quarters in Dick
inson for the purpose of conducting a
normal school therein at reasonable
rental. They have purchased, paid for
and delivered to the Board Of Regents
a deed to site selected by the board
for normal school purposes. In fact,
they have done everything in their
power to aid and assist the board at
all times and in every way possible.
However, the Elks in renting their
building, feel they are entitled to a
reasonable compensation for their
property. Hence, asked the rental as
set out in the above letters, and the
same is apparently satisfactory to the
members of the board present. The
rent asked, namely, $222.22 per month,
is the same as has been paid by the
