the same conditions which have pro-

sites of life.
Between 1913 and 1918, commodi-
dity prices advanced 112 per cent,
wages advanced 70 per cent and Bell
Telephone rates the country over ad-
vanced only per cent. Adequate
rates are needed if the service is to
be maintained efficiently and on a
comprehensive scale, so as to meet the
increasing demands of the public.
This company is operating it's tele-

of the Postmaster General for the

cost OF rendering the service.

Changes in Bell Telephone Rates-1913 to 1918
Compared with Changes in Wages and Prices

Since 1918 there has been a steady
increase in the price of all commodi-
ties and the products of industry,
which has not been reflected in a
corresponding increase in telephone
rates. In order to meet the past and
present high cost of telephone opera
ton, revenue in just proportion to
the expense must be secured.
The reason is simple. The cost of
telephone operation has steadily ad-
vanced both because of the increased
cost of material and the increased
living cost of employer. The consum-
er has realized the necessity of pay
ing more for rent, for food, for cloth
ing and for transportation. The tele-
phone industry has been affected by

tion came into existence to
shackle mans freedom, our
savage friend was absolutely
sovereign; if he chose to crack
his neigbor's skull, he hld that
sweet privilege but, Of course,
his neighbor, being likewise
sovereign, was free to return the
whack. However, it appears
from the narratives Of divers
and sundry historians, that men
grew tired of promiscuous skull
cracking, deciding that it would
be more satisfactory to slrren-
der some of their sacred SOY
ereignty, and hence the whole
history Of civilization is a record
of the gradual slipping of in
dividual sovereignty. DID man
lose anything by thus conSenting
to the limitation Of his s,v-
erignty? Well, hardly, unless
we are ready to admit that the
savage was better off than the
modern man, who submits to all
kinds of laws which limit his
freedom Of action; by suffering
his sacred sovereignty to be
abridged, the modern man enters
into cooperation with his fcl-
lows and thereby makes all his
progress possible.

Filibustering to defeat some meas
ure before congress is seldom justi-
fable; more often it is bad business
and does the country harm. That
one or a few members of the senate
can defeat important legislation by a
filibuster shows the need of that
body reforming its rules. The country
has just witnessed effects Of this
device, says the Tulsa World. Many
important bills failed because a very

/ er and paving the way for the
future development Of the great
est Of all nations. True, the col
onies or separate states suffered
! the curtailment of their sacred
sovereignty but nobody today
doubts that they acted wisely.
Now to what extent does the
covenant of the league of ma
tions call upon MS to- surrender
our sovereignty
Without going into an ex-
haustive analysis, it is sufficient
to say that we are asked to sur
render the same sweet privilege
that the savage gave up when
he consented to quit his pro
miscuous sNull-cracking. Modern
warfare Is the successor OF
the ancient practice of skull
cracking as method of settling
differences. While the league OF
nations as now contemplated
does not preclude the possibility
Of armed strife, it does hold out
hope for the peaceful settlement
of most of the controversies
among nations. BY the terms Of
the covenant, along with the 9th
er civilized nations, we agree to
submit issues that tend to dis
turb world peace to the abitra-
ment of reason rather than to
resort to war. Is it the surren-
der Of sovereignty or the sur
gender Of savagery?

OUR SACRED SOVEREIGNTY
SLIPPING?

Some Of the sagacious senator's
who are assailing the proposed

such a scheme means the sur

thereby they seem to think they

about it.

who is supposed to have known
q thing or two about the mean

sovereignty as the state of be-

authority or jurisdiction" And

Farm bureau for women has made
much progress in the past year in
spite of all adverse conditions. AT
the time when organization should
have been in progress the influenza
prevented all meetings, SO nothing
could be done until spring. Only a
few meetings could be held between
the time it was possible for people
to gather together and the time when
spring work became SO urgent that
time could not be given for meetings.
However, in spite of all these things
eighteen communities have been or
gained during the past year and these
have been doing splendid work along
all lines of interest in the demonsara-
ton program
During the past year the program
was based on five projects, three ma
jor and two minor. The major pro-
jects are clothing, poultry and health
and child welfare This last includes
nutrition, health crusade, physical ex-
