Wear No Clothes 10 Church

\ religious cult in England Is
preaching that the whole world Viii go
naked as soon as it Is properly educated
although there is plenty OF evidence in
Kansas this warm weather that we do
not need great deal of educating along
this line. The Kosmanites, as they
called themselves, had Il tabernacle MD
den away in the woods near Plymouth
England, where they went ito church
dressed in Adam and Eve costumes. The
children do not wear clothes In the
summertime until they are 10 years Old.
The leader Of the faith when arrested
was highly indignant. He admitted
that the world was not yet ready TO
go without clothing, but declared the
idea was right and the cause was good
and that the whole world would adopt
il as soon as it embraced the beliet
of the Eosman church. He neglected
to say anything about the help the cloth
ing profiteers were giving the cult.

When Bread Will BE Dear

Wheat Needs Phosphorus" reads a
headline in u farm paper. Like as not
it does or is going TO pretty soon. This.
by the way, is the high.priced stuff
Kansas has been selling with its wheat
for more than a generation at. price
for which it cannot be bought and re
stored to the soil. Years ago Ohio was
the great wheat state. Ohio mined ana
sold all its soil phosphorus. Now the
great wheat state is Kansas and the Da-
kotas and Minnesota are the last of
the great wheat states. When they
nave used up the phosphorus in their
soils we shall then know a little more
about what the price of wheat really
ought to be, or what is more to the
point, ought to have been.-Cappers
