when the corn cutter receives a daily
wage of ten dollars; when mecnan-
les are drawing from two thousand 70
five thousand dollars per year; when
domestic in the household can al
ford to wear silk hose and fur-lined
coats. surely we have had a revolu-
ton. Think of the millions OF auto
mobiles in this country owned by peo,
pie who few years ago never dreamed
of being able to own SO much as q
horse and buggy. Think Of the homes
in which there are valuable musical

WON'T SCRAP NITRO.

Dds for Nitro, the great powder town which the gov
u eminent was constructing on the Kanawha river near
Charleston when the amistice was signed do not show
much improvement on the second opening but there one
incident in connection with the proceedings Washington
yesterday that will give general satisfaction. That was the
announcement that no matter what done about The sale
Of the property il will not be sold to concerns that want
to scrapit
According to newspaper figures Nitro cost the govern
ment $70000O 900 and the best bid yesterday was tribe
over $8,000O00 As plain bookkeeping proposition it
seems awful but as matter Of fact this powder enterprise
was war measure conducted under war conditions when
money was the last thing thought Of As far as the govern.
ment and the taxpayers are concerned not thing could
be done about if were total loss But if the govern
ment can for fair price, everything considered tum this
ready made town over to who will convert 1t to
the uses of peace time industry and it put In operation
as soon as possible there chance for the country TO re-
coup itself for the loss on the outlay.
After it is all panstakng investigation should be
made of the governments reconstruction with the idea OF
setting up system for future Right now there is
ground for suspicion that the mistakes involved in getting
back to peace basis more numerous and quite
as costly as the mistakes of getting onto war basis
Too many half completed industrial enterprises all over
the country were abandoned and scrapped and too much
food and automobiles and other supplies that the public
needed and the government did held off the mar
ket The only comforting hpg about the way was done
in this country is the fact that was done about the same
way in the other Allied countries

All Hands on Deck!

All Hands on Deck!
1 see in the paper this morning an
advertisement with big head line on
it which asks why Pay Rent?" This
is a question have been mulling in
my mind for many weeks. At one
time l figured it out that it was
cheaper to move than pay rent, and
then got notice from the transfer
man that they had raised their rates
again, which made 1t cheaper TO pay
the rent. Then the man who owns
the house notified me that the rent
was raised which again made 1t
cheauer to move. The transfer man
came right back with another raise,
and this time figured it out that IT
would be cheaper to leave the furnt-
ture and walk out. Then l CHANGED
to hear that before l could claim resi-
dence. in a new location the Traction
company insisted on a substantial de-
posit before could get either electric
lights or gas, and the Telephone COM
many politely suggested that they
were in a position to accept cheek
covering payments for a number OF
months in advance. All this made II
cheaper for me to stay where l was
and nay rent. In answer to the ques-
ton asked in the advertisement
"Why Pay Rent?' I have found the
best answer to be-the sheriff.

Lieutenant Maynard, who won the great trnasconti-
mental air race made plea at luncheon of the Amer
lean Flying club yesterday for landing place in the
Rocky mountains SO that flying that range would
be less dangerous He also said that this would be
propitous time to start movement for all American
cities to establish flying fields That this ought to be
done admits of 70 doubt but we do not know about the
propitousness. Six months ago the country seemed
about to turn its attention to matters of that kind but
instead public interest took another direction Unless
the flying parson can prove that it would promote new
social order right of the bat there not much prospect
that he would get very far with movement to dot the
country with flying fields.
