ON THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.

In an editorial under the caption of
Don't pay it,, the Pathfinder of Octo-
Der 18th. says: Relief from the high
cost of living rests with the individuals
the remedy is in their hands. High
prices are largely due to the willingness
of the public to pay any price that is
asked. High prices have become almost
a Joke. and people wen brag about how
much they pay for things. Thus they
themselves keep bidding prices up.
Much of the trouble is also due to the
fact that people are willing to pay about

of living" blame the passion for style
and your own willingness to be imposed
upon.
"A committee of our farmers not
long ago came to Washington 10 give
their views on the high cost of living.
They went into the most high-toned res
taurant in the city and they paid $11 for
their lunch. They figured that about 80
cents represented the actual value Of the
articles consumed, and they laid the other
$40. 20 t. the middlemen and p%rofiteers.
Their experience has been published all
over the country, as a proof of the way
the innocent public are gouged.
"A Scotchman in New York the other
day went into a restaurant and on finding
an order of roast beef would cost him 80
cents he calculated: I'll no pay it!' He
bolted and went across the street and
filled up on crackers and milk for %
cents.
Now, if Americans would show the
independence and canny common sense
that this Scotchman showed and would
refuse to pay eXhorbitanl prices they
would soon bring things down to a sea
sonabIe basis. Of course all prices are
bound to be high now but there is no
excuse for paying several times what a
thing is worth.
Remember that Scotchman when
someone wants to charge you a price
which you know is outrageous. Simply
say: Il WON'T pay it," Then, find
some way to serve yourself at less cost;
or, if necessary go without. A little de-
privation isn't going to hurt you. Think
what the soldiers have suffered. Are
you any better than they are?
"A Kansas paper tells about a farmer
who went into a store a few days ago and
bought a school outfit for his n~ine-yeor
old boy. He paid So for his shoes and
then bought him a suit, overcoat and cap
for a total of $50 a very moderate outlay
for these times, and nothing extra good
at that, says the account.
This is a good example of how people
allow themselves to be done. And
then, instead of taking the blame them
selves, they shift it onto others. Some
body is profiteering, they complain, and
they let it to go like that. 1t is they who
make the profteering possible. We say
here and nov that any farmer who pays
S68 for a suit, overcoat, cap and shoes for
a boy of nine should go to school in place
of the boy and let the boy run the farm
and handle the money
Such people need a guardian, if no a
nurse. If they know enough to loot
around and use a little judgment they
need not pay over half as much. The
big mail-order houses are still furnishing
goods at reasonable nrjcpC and IF lOool

SELFISHNESS.

Selfshness is an art Of the mind 10
