HIGHER STANDARDS OF LIFE.

Some OF the increased expenditure
OF these times is merely foolish per
sonal indulgence And some OF it
is the Wisest form of investment.
When you spend money waste
fully on automobiles and sports,
YOU burn it up with no return. But
when you spend it to put boys
through high school and college,
you turn out a generation of young
people who will increase product
ion. When you put money into

and ears and throats. You help ere

who are capable of greater output
and can afford to spend more freely

money into a higher standard of

the long run.

PRICE READJusrmENrs.

Some people say the recent econ
my movement is in danger OF being
carried too far. They claim it is
holding up the industries and must
tend TO reduce output and cause
wide spread business depression
and suffering. Then they claim
people will all at once find they
are short OF goods. and will rush
in to buy at one time. That will
create such scarcity that prices
will jump up.
Yet it is argued that retail prices
have as yet not shown reductions
corresponding with the drop il
Wholesale figures. and that the only
way to force the price level to adj
Just itself to changed conditions, is
for people to keep wearing old
clothes and go slow on all pul-
chases.
The public psychology controls
prices. People spent money ex.
travagantly last year because the
spendthrift spirit was in the air
Then when lot OF people became
resentful over high prices, they
found they could reduce their pul-
chases 50 per cent OH about every
thing but food. and not suffer ser
ious Inconvenience.
The general price level is still too
high, and business can not proceed
on thoroughly sound foundation
until production costs are cut and
profits reduced to minimum. A
policy of careful economy is still
necessary, in order to provide sui
ficient capital with which to ii
nance the industries of the country
However, when the merchants Of
Holly advertise special values, it is
a good policy to buy if you need the

these home dealers can be absolute

they have exceptional values, you
can believe every word OF it. Pat

concentrate business in the most ef

1t took the side of the oppressed

support of greaat multitudes Of
generous hearted people anxious
for progress.
1t has been charged since that
time that the Republican party has
ceased to be progressive, and has
come to stand as defender OF
wealth and privilege. This com
plant has perhaps been unavOid-
able, since the Republican party
has believed strongly in efficient

such efficient organization, it was
necessary to enlist the interest and
cooperation OF business men of
special ability.
Men of this type have their faults.
Some of them have been too in
clined to consider the interests OF
combinations OF capital. Yhey have
given the country the best busi-
ness administration it ever had, but
they need to be governed by the
mass of plain people. who make up
the Republican party.
The Republican party during the
| next four years, must continue to
seek the counsel and assistance OF
| men of large business ability. But
to assure permanent Republican
rule, it must not think first about
the prosperity of the wealthy. 1t
must provide for the welfare of the
great mass of the people, and re
lieve them from economic misfor-
