that believing the Bible, and acting
up to it, is like having two strings
to ones bow; for, if it is not true,

inc to it and so it will be Tor my good in
this life, that is one string to my bow;
and if it should be true, why, it will be
better for me in the mex life; thai is
another string, and a pretty strong one
it is.
But, sir, if you do noc believe the BIZ
bic. and, on that account, do not live as
it requires, you have NOT ever one string
to your bow. And oh, sir, if its tremen-

AS once before shown in this very
paper, the consumer is largely ii not
ALTOGETHER responsible for the prevailing
exhorbitant prices because he continues
to paw them in cases where he would nol
be one lot the worse off if he curtaiIed
the commodity sold at high-sky prices
and would certainly be exhibiting the
fact that he had a bit of grey matter left
in his Uranium to detect when he is being
made a fool of and his pocket imposed
upon.
But in this curious place it appears
that everything has to be done for pee
pie: they can never take the initiative
and help themselves. They wan the
Food Commission and goodness knows
how many other commissions to prevent
them paying ridiculous prices for the
things they can do without, if even
for a time during which the prices will
of necessity have to again become nor
nal. Suppose those VINO can abstain from
milk and beet, and decidedly t,vo-tnirds
of the community can, agreed not to pay
more thar such and such a price for
those commodities, or delete them from
their menu, What would be the result?
the prices would have to get to a
proper standard because those deal

ing in milk and beef don't want to have
their articles on hand and no mon
ey con ing in, and the effect would prove
all that could be desired. People IN
this island have got to learn than when
prices soar beyond all reason and they
continue to pay such prices. they arc not
looking great" because they can spend
money foolishly, but they are actually
acting inconsiderately for their fellow
men less well-off. Nine tenths of Leo-
pies real duty in this world is toward
their teIIoWn@en, and when reduced to
practice there is nothing to which so lit
tie attention is paid.
1t would be a great boon to this com
munity if you would start a campaign to
boom united action along practical lines
for the relief Of the masses who suffer
under present conditions mvre than ever
before. 1t is of no use to increase the
.aborers' and other workp ople's pay
when Immediately the prices of every
Thing are likewise increased by a b gh-
err percentage. Wh2re is the earth
ly benefit in giving a man 25 to 1920

No, we have got to earn what a consum-

SAUER BACK AFTER
 TITLE MATCH WITH CHAMPION ECKLUN]

Pete Sauer. the pride of Phoenix. came back to town yesterday and re- ceived royal welcome from his many friends and admirers. Pete could be seen in various parts Of the city sur rounded by group of wrestling fans. who listened with interest to his yer sion of the tough battle he had with Clarence Ecklund in Nebraska.
 While he lost to Ecxlund in hours Is minutes, Pete did not feel the sting of defeat very keenly, as it was a toss- up between him and Ecklund right up to the last minute and both men were so exhausted when the first fall was decided that neither one was able to crawl out of the ring unassisted. Pete was vociferous in his declaration that he would wear the crown of light heavyweight champion the next time he and Ecklund clashed.
 This was the only match that Sauer participated in since leaving Phoenix and he carried some glowing press re- ports of his long drawn -out battle with Ecklund, which were unanimous in the opinion that all Saner lacked was a. little more ring experience to make him the undisputed worlds champion.
 Pete expressed great joy at being back in Phoenix and stated that he was fit and ready to meet all legitimate light heavyweights. Arrangements are now being made by Templin and Keen. the new wrestlfng matchmakers, to have a suitable opponent meet Sauer at an early date.
 The coming match will be held under the auspices of the American legion and Matchmakers Templin and Keen are hastening preparations to revive the wrestling game and give the sport lovers of Phoenix better and cleaner wrestling than has been seen in Phoe- nix heretofore. Both TempIin and Keen are we'll known business men of Phoe nix, which augurs we'll for the future of wrestling here

 Incidentally, the Greys have been materially strengthened by the addi- ton of Hollocher, who will be a tower on offense and defense.
