SCHOOL CLOTHES

Many children quit school at a pre- maturely early age. One reason is be cause of the eipense of fitting children out for school The bill for shoes and stockings and suits and dresses and hats is a very big one now. Parents in straitened circumstances frequently req son that if the children are taken out of school at the earliest legal age, the parents will avoid this bill, as the young sters can then at least earn their own clothes.
 In the upper grades and the high schools, competition frequently develops among the girls to SC which can dress most attractively. These precocious leaders of fashion wish to fascinate the boys with their swell togs, and father foots the bill. High school teachers in many places say that the extravaganza of the school girls is scandalous. \ great many of them will wear costly silk stockings where the teachers have to buy cheap ones, and so on in every article of dress
 The high school girls of Cleveland. Ohio, recently petitioned the school su- perintendent that they be allowed to wear a school uniform which would show that they were school girls, and would be inexpensive and place all on a democratic level.
 It would be in many ways a fine idea Yet some may object on the ground that a uniform makes any body of people look to montonous and discourages in- dividuality. Yet the boy scouts have not found it that way. They seem to see inspiration in their uniform
 However one may look at that, par entsshould be ashamed to give heir chil- dren expensive school clothes it's better to buy simple, plain, inexpensively made material of good standard, wear ing quality. When all the parents will dc that sending children through school will be less of a burden to parents ey- anywhere.

EVERY 2 SECONDS SEES
GOODRICH TIRE MADE

Every time the clock ticks off a
minute, enough tires to equip seven
and one-half automobiles are made in
Akron. 1t took less than five months
to swing tire production from stage
that was dwindling to a rate even
lower than that of 1913 to the "Tire-
every two seconds" gait now in effect,
says the B. F. Goodrich Rubber COM
pany.
One may, perhaps, more easily Wis
ualibe the magnitude of ,Akron's tire
production by comparison with De-
troit. Akron makes tires enough in
one minute to equip all the cars turn
ed out in Detroit in seven and one
half minutes. This is based on recent
reports from Detroit which say that
city is now back at the old automobile
minute stride.
And now Akron is getting ready
Tor even bigger expansion. She is pre-
pairing to meet the full demand ct

a production schedule that will eclipse
all pre-war records. The transition
from a war basis, when dirigible bal
Icons, gas masks, army rubber boots,
and raincoats were turned out III ire
mendous volume, was made in Akron
without dent in the remarkable IN
uustrial organization of the city.
Unlike many other cities, Akron
has a distinct labor shortage. This
sign near the entrance to the Good
rich employment department charac-
terizes the situation: "We have job
for all returned soldiers and sailors. "
Intense activity in building homes
to care for the workmen needed
to fulfill the labor needs of the city
is substantial evidence of the prosper,

OUTSPOKEN PATRIOTISM

1t has become a matter Of comment
about the Senate that practically all
of the speakers in opposition to the
treaty and league of nations are
greeted by applause in the galleries
when they conclude their remarks.
Thus far there has been no noticeable
demonstration on occasions when the
undertaking has been defended by an
administration Senator. 1nasmuch as
the thousand or more occupants of the
Senate galleries, made up of tourists,
returned soldiers, and others from all
parts of the country, may be taken as
fairly representative of our whole pop
ulation, Republican Senators are in
terpreting the applause as proof of
their conviction that there is an over
whelming sentiment throughout the
country in opposition to the league of
nations.

Buy Your Coal Direct
From Mine-Big Saving

The high cost Of coal IL a thing of
the past! At least. there are no COM
plants on this account--since the re-
moval of government restrictions
among those who have learned how to
buy coal. The way to buy coal is to
get it direct from the mines. This
saves several middlemen's profits. It
saves hauling expenses. Anyone can
now buy at mine prices, whether a car
load buyer or one who uses only ten
or fifteen tons a year. This has
been made possible through q plan
evolved by large and old-estab-,
lished concern, THE BERNICE COAL
COMPANY, with main offices at
Como Building, Chicago.
This company has thousands of Gus
toners in various sections of the
United States who receive all of their
coal direct from the mines. These GUS
toners are pleased not only because
of the many dollars they save every
year, but also because Of the quality
Of coal they are getting. Many write
that they never before had coal that
makes so little dust. that burns SO
well, leaving so few ashes IF you are
q coal user-whether you use hard or
soft coal, much or little-it will be
greatly to your advantage to write the
Bernice Coal Co. at once for prices,
stating kind and quantity Of coal you
use.

CAN'T FOOL THEM ALL THE TIME

In 1912 when he was candidate for
the Presidency, Mr.. Wilson told the
country that Democratic tariff law
would reduce the high cost of living.
He was elected upon that issue, the
tariff was reduced, but. the cost Of liv-
ing continued steadily to advance,
even before the outbreak of war in
Europe. He surrendered American
markets to foreigners, but the cost of
living did not come down. Now he
soberly tells the country that if they
will ratify the peace treaty, league
and all, the cost of living will come
down. He is just as confident now as
he was in 1912. But surrender of
American sovereignty to foreigners
will not reduce the cost of living in
1919 any more than surrender of
American markets reduced it in 1918.
It is one more instance of Wilsonian
us-out-of-war" slogan in 1916. But the
people have had enough.

THROW OFF THE SHACKLES

Every member of President Wilson'S
Cabinet, has in turn, indicted the retail
dealer of profteering, thus following
in the footsteps of their illustrious
leader, the Chief Executive Of the Ma
ton, who has poured whole walls of
wrath on the heads and shoulders of
the retail dealers, while dealing out
honeyed words of commentator to
the real profiteers, the labor unionists
whose grasping and gouging methods
precipated the present crisis. The
last member of the cabinet to come TO
the support of the President in his
condemnation of the retail trade is A.
NJ Palmer, United States Attorney
General, who recently stated:
eve have found it to be fact that
the corner grocers take advantage of
the situation to charge excessive
prices" III
1t is commonly supposed that it is
the duty of the Attorney General to
enforce the laws and not sit in judg-
nent on those who are accused, but
like the President-himself-Mr Pan
nner assumes the prerogatives of
judge, jury and prosecutor and renders
the verdict directed by the hand who
signed his appointment.
How long do the retail merchants of
the United States propose to bow their
heads to this sort Of dictation, which
places them on the same basis as the
series Of Russia, with no day in court,
no opportunity for defence and no
hope for appeal?
President Wilson'S attitude towards
the retail dealers reduces the Republic
to the level Of a mobocracy, in which
there is no such thing as justice, fair
ness or freedom--nothing but the iron
rule of the tyrant and the bending
neck of the cringing subject.-Michi-
gan Tradesman.
