PROFITS AND PATRIOTS

excess profits. too, are offensive,
but they gave the country coal which
could have been got in no other way"
says an editorial Ia the New York
Times, referring TO the fuel crisis
during the war
When one reads this In connection
with the present sugar famine" and
realizes how quickly the famine be-
came moderate sulliciency aS soon
az the price was put up few cents,
one is moved 10 reflect a little on the
subject OF patriotism.
o. IL the Times statement conveys
any meaning at all, is II not simply
that the coal operators were plainly
profiteering during the war? That,
but for the excess profits permitted,
the operators would not have done
their duty?
Apparently there Is more wrong in
the coal fields OF America than II min
ors' strike and more behind the al,
legged sugar shortage than u deficient
crop in Cuba.

FOUNDRY BUILDING
To Be COMPLETED
IN A SHORT TINE
Walls Up, But Slow Shipment
OF Steel Retards Work
On The Roof

Taking into consideration the fact
fhnt there has been II slow delivery
ii, steel, everything Is progressing
rapidly on the construction of the
new building for the Mt. Vernon
Foundry & Engineering Co.
The building is being constructed
on the site formerly occupied by the
Camp Glass factory. The walls have
lens been completed and it is hoped
to have the roof constructed and the
building enclosed within short time.
Foificials OF the company are very
anxious to occupy the new building,
hocause of the fact that so much
work is on hand which must be push
ed to rapid completion.
When finished, the building will af
ford employment to a large number
OF additional men.

SCHOOL GARAGES

And has 1t come to this? Kansas
school districts are reported to be
voting bonds or increasing tax levies
to provide funds for the building of
school garages These garages are
not part OF the machine shop equip,
ment of the modern technical high
tchool They are not a part OF the
educational equipment at all. They
are wanted to house the automobiles
in which Kansas children drive daily
to the seats af learning.
In the old days churches all had
fheds in the rear to house the horses
and vehicles which brought the de-
vout to Sunday worship or socially
inclined to week,night entertain
ments. Country churches still have
these sheds in some localities. And
country schools have needed such
shelters.
Not every community suffers from
the lack of school garages as tho
Kansas school districts seem to suf
fer. Nevertheless it Is surprising Il
observe the large number of big auto
mobiles in the streets before tn
buildings or parked on the football
grounds of almost any city hig
school. A great many parents pen
nit their children to drive their ow
car" to school daily, even In the eli
les where distances are not gren
One wonders why High school ag
seems rather young to abandon tn
hcalthlul exercise Of walking.

DOLLAR EGGS

Fresh eggs lately have been selling
in most parts of the country around
81 dozen. In some cities they have
been more than that. And they are
not worth it!
True" the discouraged housewife
may say. "but what IS worth the
price you have to pay for 1t nova
days? And besides, don't we have to
have eggs?"
Very likely nothing is worth its
present price, Some things, however,
are more nearly worth it than others,
and thereby hangs the solution of the
egg problem given by one who has
made some study Of food values as
well as prices.
People do not have to have eggs,
he says. At least, they do not have
or 10 cents apiece. Eggs are excel
lent food. and necessary perhaps for
cakes, pies and puddinss. But these
things are luxuries. And certainly
people 40 nOt Hteu eSSS dl lndt piiCe
to eat straight" for breakfast or any
other meal, in the customary way
Eggs are largely protein. SO are
milk and meat. Milk is an almost
perfect substitute for eggs, and has
as varied uses, and value for value,
despite its seemingly high price,
costs one.half or one.third as much
as eggs. Meat, expensive as it is,
costs much less than eggs at this sea-
son of the year. For breakfast, bacon
makes an excellent egg substitute,
especially i'm cold weather, 'at Il cost
of about half as much for the same
amount of nutriment.
Why buy eggs as usual, then, in
their season of scarcity? There is "a
season for everything. The hens
know what they are about. Spring
and summer are the time for eggs.

CITY WILL Receive
LARGE SUM FROM AN
INHERITANCE TAX
Due To Fact That Mrs. Por.
ter Gave Her Residence
AS Mt. Vernon In
Her Will

The city Of Mt Vernon will come
i'm for good.sized share of the mon
ey derived from the income tax in
the estate of Mrs. Mamie Israel Por-
tei.
According 10 the will, which was
filed in probate this morning, the tes.
tatrix gave her residence as Mt Yer
non, Consequently this city will re-
ceive the greater portion of the funds
arising from the income tax.
AS Mrs. Porter gave away many
thousand dollars, the city will receive
quite large fund.
Although she married Danvile
man, the late DR.. Porter, and resided
IN Danville for several years, the lat.
ter part of her life was spent in Mt.
Vernon.

and he will tell you that American railroads
the best in the world.
He saw the foreign roa,5 - II n-~,a-d and i,
France, the best in Europe - and in other Con-
tinental countries = and he knows.
The part railroads have played in the develop
ment of the United States is beyond measure.
American railroads have achieved high stand
ards of public service by far-sghted and courage
investment of capital, and by the constant
striving of managers and men for rewards for work
well done.
We have the best railroads in the world we
must continue to have the best.
But they must grow.
To the $4,000 100000 now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few years, to keep pace with the nation business,
billions for additional tracks stations and
terminals, and engines, electric power houses
and trains automatic signals, safety devices, the
elimination of grade crossings = and for recon-
structiOn and engineering economies that will
duce the cost of transportation
TO attract to the railroads in the future the in
veslmen funds of many thrifty citizens, the direct
ing genius of the most capable builders and man
ayers, and the skill and loyalty of the best work.

ding for capital, managers and men = the railroad
industry must hold out fair rewards to capital, to
managers and to the men. "a
American railroads will continue to set world
standards and adequately serve the Nations needs
if they continue to be built and operated on the
American principle Of rewards for WepN well done.s

Special Corrospcndcrcc
BOSTON, Mass, April 22.-The Bos-
ton Chamber of Commerce will fight
the plan of tho Federal authorities to
make the subscribers pay the increase
in wages just granted the telephone
operators in the strike settlement here.
This plan was announced by First AS
sistant Postmaster General John G.
Koons as he left this city for Wash
ington.
Business men arc up in arms against
such a plan and arc lining up with the
Chamber Of Commerce to defeat it if
possible Mr. kooys made the explana-
tlon that it was necessary that extra
expenditure involved in the higher
wages should revert to the telephone
subscribers for the reason that Con
gress adjourned without making any
provision for such contingency. The

explanation
