Dear Mrs. Thompson: Six weeks
ago. my aunt wrote and asked II
she could visit me. She came and
spent four days. She did not tell
me at the time, but later I learned
that her husband was here at the
time trying to buy a little house
very much, like our own just two
blocks away.
Four weeks after her visit her
husband rang the door bell and
with my aunt's daughter came and
spent two days with me, while the
deal on the house was closed. The
last time I had met the daughter
she turned her back on me and re-
fused to speak. as we had been
having trouble through sickness
and were temporarily down and
out.
Our eight-room house was q con.
venient home for her and she priet

views OF her stepfather, etc. She
had separated from her husband
and rouge and diamonds were al
her property. Then she left towr
suddenly and is not coming back.

We hear much nowadays OF the prosperity
Of the agricultural classes in this country.
Farmers never had 90 much money. They
never bought 80 much land, made SO many i'm
provemsnts and generally scored such rapid
advancement in relieving Themselves Of the
twin curse Of isolation, and drudgery. So rapid
has been the Transformation that many tillers
Of the soil cannot persuade themselves that
It h all real and that some turn Of fate may
not throw them back to the point where they

for the future that 10 being manifested in IN
saserness to organise Is not altogether out OF
place. N
The fact is that much or the Agricultural
prosperity now being enjoyed has grown out
OF war prices. The farmer, selling more than
he buys. has benefited by the high cost Of liv-
ing. Furthermore. he has been able to boost
his capitalization by increasing the price Of his
land and there has been great deal Of what
IL known nonssfpecuhtors as profit taking. !"
War prices cannot continue indefinitely. and
neither can farm property continue to make
those who own it rich by its unearne6 ipcre-
ment.

When the long, long night Is pre-

his journey just begun; to catch the
glee as the shadows Zee and the
bright lines longer grow and to
lathe your soul In the waves that
roll from . sea Of golden glow. I'm
