THE CONSUMERS STRIKE

The present s]ackening of business
has been created by resentment O.
the people against high prices. But
it never pays to break initiation by
forcing the people to idleness
Stoppage of production is poo.
remedy for lack of production. II
all the people stop buying it must
result in much distress.
A great many people may discover
all at once that they are short of
household necessaries. Then if they
rush in to buy all at once, the fac
tories will not be able to- supply
their demands, and the profteers
will jack up prices again. The best
policy is steady and regular buying
as needs develop. This will stabal-
ize the business machine and start
up many mills now idle.

Three hundred years ago Decem-
Der Fl the Pilgrim Forefathers land
ed on the shores Of Cape Cod bay in
old Massachusetts,. They little
dreamed as they climbed the hillside
and surveyed a gloomy and forbid
ding landscape, what a historic hour
had struck.
The nation celebrates their daunt.
less courage today, forgetting some
un!ovely traits which belonged to
the old puritan character. Men of
such resolution could not run in the
softer moulds.
On the personal side it was a high
deed of courage to face these un-
known perils which so many failed
to survive. Many other pioneers
were equally resolute, but the mo-
tive Of many Of them was gold and
trade. The Pilgrims came because
they had vision of a new society
founded on a basis of free and rep
resentative government, and individ-
ual liberty. wherever their ideas
spread, churches and school houses
were founded, which assured the
popular intelligence that is the only
sac foundation of democracy.
L, those days Europe was ruled
by kings and aristocrats, and the
rights Of the people were ignored :.
The Pilgrims proved that simple
hearted and common men could es-
tabl sh a society which could live
and grow without any leadership
from royal blood or control by priv
LEGGED rulers.
The principle they established
proved SO real and vital that it has
overturned the world. Other pio-
neers also sacrificed their all for the
same noble faith. All contributed
to the upbuilding of a glorious re-
public. But the Declaration of In
dependence and the United States
Constitution were in peculia'
sense the logical outcome of the
principles established by the ;nen
who signed the original compact in
the cabin of the Mayhower 300 years
ago.

GAS WARFARE

Experiments in gas warfare are
supposed to have been conducted
very successfully since the armistice
with Germany was signed. Some
people think that several govern
ments now have chemicals that
would easily wipe out whole cities
The gas divisions Of the several ar
mics had to work very hurr:edly dur
ing the war to- develop this new
weapon. Their results, while terri
Vie beyond description, yet fall far
hort Of what they will do in the
ext war.
Give the scientists time, and they
ill provide the machinery to wipe
>ut all human Life in warning coun-
ries. The nation that happened to
rain the ascendency with this devil
eh instrument could crush the
world in a few weeks.
With this weapon atraining this
>ower, it should be apparent to the
>eeblest intellect that the world
must find some peaceful method of
settling disputes.

A period of warfare accustors
masses of people to the idea that
they can accomplish things by force

cooperation. This leads to violent
action, and in the industrial world
encourages people to resort to

It has vanished from our home,
How we loved him none can tell.

Little Raymond gone to sleep.
Gone to yonder happy home,
Sadly round his grave we weep;
Angels called our baby home

Of the little son of Mr.. and Mrs.
