left or are sitting in the villages con-

The Pullman chamber voted its in

There are four routes connecting
the two towns, but all are in poor
condition. The sand road, by way of
Clinton, stood in the heavy traffic for
two or three years, but is now in bad
condition and is some four miles
longer than the due east routes. Many
local people favor the route leading
through the Washington state college
farm, along the Maple drive, thence
due east to Moscow, a route approx
mately nine miles long. This road
leads to the center and would prob
ably meet with the favor of Moscow
citizens.

II. c. L. as Suggested by the
Organization.

The fact that a Chicago judge of
the Superior Court resigned for the
reason that "he was sick and tired Of
hearing divorce cases." points to a
condition of our social economy that
needs a physician. Marriage is no
longer the solemn and sacred condi-
ton of former times. The high cost
OF living, the demands of society, and
the childless homes are in no small
degree responsible for the troubles
that lead up to divorce; but the still
greater evil is the cOngested living
conditions, idle women and the de-
mands of fashion lead to conditions
that turn the cup of happiness to one
of gall and bitterness The desire to
keep up with the JOnses, the costly
apartments, the servants, the stylish
wardrobes, and the thousand and one
things that busy mOtner does not
think of being within her means or de-
sired, make a demand upon the pOck-
etbooks of the husbands, that cannot
be met, and then comes the scene,
the return to mother, and finally the
divorce court, and if that were all,
the world would be Happier; but sa-
tan in the form of tempter, has per
haps invaded the home, and all is lost.
Is it any wonder that the judge turns
away in disgust from the daily rout-
inc of the divorce courts to seek re-
lief for shattered nerves?

CANDLES IN WORLD TRADE

Our comfortably situated people,
having electricity gas or oil for chas-
ing gloom when the shades of night
have fallen or they are compelled to
work away from daylight, may be sur
prised to learn that there is a world
wide business in candles and what
once was universally known as tallow
dips form no mean item in the stats,
tics of British export business. Incl
dentally, as a boastful article from
Hull discloses, the soap-manufactur-
ing corporation which has a virtual
monopoly of bot hthe soap and candle
industry of the United kingdom, is
capitalized at $5OO,OO0,OeO and there
appears to be something like public
pride in the fact that it is swiftly alb
sorbing every industry allied to its
primary business, including those
which produce the raw materials on
which it depends.
As to candles, we were under the
impression that Standard Oil had so
civilized even the most remote peoples
that nowhere do any depend on the
old-time tapers for light. To be sure,
the wise in our own town keep few
candles about the premises to help
out when something goes wrong at the
powerhouse or somewhere along the
line, and there are aesthetic SOILS who
put on the candles ON the tanle at
special dinners.
But the candle is an article of i'm
portance in human economy despite
all the progress that has been made
in artificial lighting. In the United
Kingdom the annual consumption is
approximately 90,000,000 pounds, or
two pounds per capita, which would
indicate a startling concentration OF
proyincialsm in the relatively small
area of the British Isles The candle
industry suffered during the war com
parably with others, but it is rapidly
recovering from the slump Last year
the United Kingdom exported about
100000 pounds of tapers and it is
expected that 15O,OOOOOO pounds will
go forth TO the four corners of the
earth this year to brighten the lives
Of those who know no better artificial
light. Candles being so important a
part of the business of the monopO.
listic soap makers referred to, it is not
surprising that this concern is paying
