MARKERS FOR MERCHANDISE.

The Montana Trade commission has issued
drastic order to all wholesale and retail dealers in
the state who sell hardware groceries, fuel cloth
ing, shoes etc, as move to curb Prohteering and
reduce the cost of living The order demands that
all goods be clearly marked with both cost and
selling price, that purchasers may see at
glance what profit is being made A fine of 81 100
is provided for violation of the order
Of course the merchants intend to fight the
order and will start court action to test the COM
Mission $ authority. They say that the system
would require so much extra bookkeeping and
store help that they would have to charge even
higher prices than now
The drastic action of the trade commission
was taken result of Investigations which show
ed some dealers making as high as 65 per cent pro-
ht. The commission asked wholesalers and retail
ers OF the state to get together and fix reasona-
Bile and uniform margin of profit They refused to
do this
The system would undoubtedly cut down such
exoTbitant profits as few unprincipled dealers
seem to have been getting. 1t would also be of
much instructive value to consumers if it were
carried out fairly and thoroughly. Purchasers of
such goods might be surprised to learn the dealer
expenses for keeping up his store, for delivery
rent telephone, help paper bags baskets boxes,
lighting and heating, and urperous other items.
Buyers would learn that the cost of storekeepine
had gone up considerably along with their own

"B'EAKADLE" TOYS.

A certain little girl classiies all her TOYS as
b eakadle' and ''unb' eakadle, " meaning thereby
those that must be handled carefully and those that
will stand banging around. The b eakadle'' ones
needless to say are in the majority despite earnest
long continued efforts the part of her parents
to provide her with unbreakable outfit
1t does look as if there was less horse sense
used in the manufacture of childrens toys than in
any other industry. Everybody knows that if there
IS any possible way to break plaything, little
boy or girl will break it. Children are naturally
rough-housers as reckless, careless and gwen to
unthnking destruction as ony other young animals
Anything they are to play with more than dav or
two must be adapted to standing hard knocks and
resisting the efforts of little hands to take it apart
nat is to say, there must be simplicity and dura-
blllty-no screws to come loose easily, or nails to
pun out easily, or material to tear or crack or
smash with ordinary usage. 1t is highly desirable
too from the standpoint of the parents that there
be no sharp points corners or edges to scratch the
floors and furniture, but this particular piece of
noralizng has to do merely with those matters
that concern the children themselves
hey get their toys they are delighted with
them-then the toys unaccountably go to pieces
there is weeping and wailing, and there are no
more toys to play with until others just as himsy
are Provided-to be smashed in their turn.
1t is unfair to the children not to mention the
parents who pay the bills Children love simple
strong things, which they can manhandIe as they
ike, and which give free play to their imagination
They love them all the more as the toys become
old and battered and ugly. They ought to have
what they want
These facts have very practical bearing now
that the holiday season is coming. The Christmas
toys are said to be little less trashy this year
Parents by making a special effort, may be able
to obtain simple, durable things as they used to-
And with the reform once started there may be
gradual transformation of the whole toy indus
try.

FEDERAL COAL MINING.

The Presidents cabinet and the fuel director
have planned for the likelihood of Selling all the
coal mines and operating them in behalf of the
government. There is probably nothing else to
do if normal production is not resumed at once
by other processes. 1t might be better if the va
rious coal-producing states would take care of the
matter for themselves-they have the power, and
Uncle Sam has his hands full of other matters But
Uncle can do it, and will do it, if he has to.
1t might have been a good thing if the gov
eminent had taken this procedure in the first place.
instead of attempting to compel renewal of coal
production by a court order based on what appears
to many legal technicality. The general pow
ers of the government are broad enough for any
such emergency, and acting under them, the gov
ernment has gained in effectiveness and avoided
some of the criticism to which it has been sub
jected. But it is not too late to apply that pro.
cess Something will have to be done soon, if the
miners will not go back to work. and that is the
obvious thing.

RED cross NOTES

American ayiators, some of whom
fought during the war not only in the
American Expeditionary Force but in
the British and French armies as well,
have enlisted in a combat squadron
of the Polish Army, according to ad-
vices reaching American Red Cross
headquarters in Washington.
The airmen recently offered their
services to the Polish Government and
upon acceptance organized the Kos
ciusco Aero Squadron. After travel
ing on convoy trains across Europe
they donned the uniform of their new
service upon arrival and made their
first object the residential headquar-
tiers at Warsaw of the American Red
Cross Commission to Poland.
"Sure seems like home and
France" they said as they greeted
the American women there.
The flyers have enlisted in the Pol
ish Army as fighting unit, not as in
structors, and will act as a pursuit

was organized by Maj. Cedric E.
Fauntleroy, of Chicago, who is in
active command, and Capt Merriam c.
Cooper, of Jacksonville, Fla.
Before entering the American
Army in France, Major Fauntleroy
was with the Lafayette Flying Corps.
He is a technical aviation expert.
Capt. Cooper was in France for two
years. Wounded during the fighting
in the Argonne and taken prisoner by
the Germans, he was held for more
than two months and only released
after the signing of the armistice,
Other members of the squadron
are: Capt. Edward J. Corsi, OF
Brooklyn, formerly of the Lafayette
escadrille, who has won the Croix de
Guerre with palms; Capt. A. H.

right light, we would soon rid the
United States of these agitators. The
American Legion was a great factor
in saving the day in the last war, and
I believe they are going to be one of
the greatest factors in saving US from
a revolution here at home, which
would be much worse than the war we
have just gone through in foreign
country. We cannot allow the Stars
and Stripes to be replaced by the red
flag of anarchy.
If the people of the United States
would only preach the spirit of love
instead of the class-hatred these agi-
tators are preaching, there would be
no fight between Capital and Labor.
Both sides would make concessions
that they are not willing to make now,
while in an antagonistic frame of
mind. Let US do our share to bring
about real fellowship.
shall put your name on the list for
the new pamphlet, which deals with
the economic side of the question, and
shows that this Socialist bunch have
added to our taxes, until the taxes on
farm lands are about 5000 of what
they were, and in some cases more.
This proves the Socialist idea of tax
ing the land from US, by taxation, if
not by force. We will also give the
inside history of the bank deals which
are so rotten that no honest farmer
connected with any institution or set
of men who would be guilty of doing
the things they have done. 1t will
also give the decision of the Supreme
Court, regarding closing of the bank,
and post-dated checks, which, in the
minds of many thinking people in this
State, is a disgrace. In fact, two of
our Supreme Judges dissented, and
one of them scored the majority
about as hard as he could, for their
action.
We charge $1.OO for the four
pamphlets, in order to pay for the
cost of publication. If you think
they are worth the price, and that the
work warrants the expense, you may
send it to me; if not, we will be glad
to donate it, as we think it our duty
to disseminate the truth, and espe-
cially in states where the Townleyites

Even in Poland the American Red
Cross is able to fulfill the pledge given
early in the war, that as long as the
American soldier remains in Europe
the Red Cross will be there to give
aid and comfort. Sweaters, socks,
cigarettes, gloves and chocolate are
among the articles that the Red Cross
has given in liberal quantities to these
men,
