The Right Thing
at the Right Time
The Question Prohibited
BY MARY MARSHALL 8. DUFFEE

Don't be miffed, old man, If ask you
how much you pay your stenographer
it isn't that I want to pry Into your
business, but to get an idea of how much
ought to pay.
II know you are going to think am
rude, but would you mind telling me
how much your dentist charged for that
crown work? l heard he was so reason
able and I wanted to have some work
done"
We all have social and business asso-
ciates who occasionally come out with
questions OF this sort and it is sometimes
difficult to know how to deal with them.
Inasmuch as nothing but ignorance OF
the rules of courtesy prompts such ques-
tions, it is perfectly courteous to avade
them.
If some one asks you how much you
have paid for dress or hat, you may
remark that you have a very POOR mem
ory regarding prices Of apparel, in such
way that you can not give offense.
Almost as annoying as these questions
concerning prices are question of per-
sonal opinions.
1t would be perfectly permissible to
ask friend, for instance, whether he ad-
mires the futurists, whereas 1t would be
rude to ask him for point blank opinion
Of the new minister's sermons, or If he
did not think a certain neighbor's daugh-
ters dressed in very bad taste.
Even among members of the same fam
lily a little restraint ought to be placed
on our natural desire to quiz.
One of the most usual causes of dis
cord between young married women and
their mothers -in-law and sisters-in- law
is due to a disposition to ask imperti-
nent questions.

Everybody seems ready and
eager to say we are suffering
from economic wrongs, but so
far nobody, individual nor class,
has been willing to accept any
accountability for those wrongs.

much of ready-made, hand-me-
down beliefs and as a result a
lot of people have stopped be-
lieving anything in their own
right but are found up on the
first hobby whose stirrups fit
their legs.
In one daily paper last week we
read: "The committee on Stats
tics of the Chamber of Com
merce of the U. S. in it's review
of business and crop conditions
says, On the whole, the farming
communities are prosperous, be-
cause of the high prices of their

of business in much the greater

is buying literally and intelli-

another column of the same pa
per we read: Indication of a

government officials to be reveal
ed in more than 40, 900 replies to
a QUESTIONABLE recently sent out
by the postoffice department.
Many of the replies said one
official, probably as many as fiji

dominant cry is for production

declared Assistant Postmaster
General Blakeslee."
But, we just got thru reading
that the farmer is buying more
tractors, farm implements and
machinery, poultry and blooded
cattle. Preparing, of course, to
leave his farm or curtail acreage.
Why is the farmer going to
quit? Further in the same ar
ticle we are informed that the
major complaint is, inability
to obtain labor to work the
farms; hired help and the farm
ers' children having been lured
to the city by higher wages and
easier living. Or as one farmer
puts it, Labor unions are more
to blame for the high prices than
anyone else. People are trying

Lucky wage Garner? But wait.
In another column of the same
paper we read that labor union
so-and-so has formulated a de-
mand for a 7-hour day and a SO
per cent increase in wages on
the grounds that the present
wage is not sufficient to provide
the necessities of life for the la
borer and his family. In other
words the farmers children have
been lured to the city by wages
by which they cannot.l live while
the old man on the farm is get
ting ready to quit and is buying
more machinery and chickens.
What is the farmer doing to
combat the labor union which he
says is putting him out of bust
ness? The answer is found in a
column on page six of the same
issue, where we read: Organ
ization of new political party
to be known as the land and la
Dor league of Oregon and the
adoption of resolutions designed
to cover the operations of the
body in a future effort to gain
governmental supremacy, mark
ed the closing sessions of the
convention made up of the var
ious labor unions of the state,
farmers organizations and in
dividuals in sympathy with the
proposed movement"
In this column we find sweet
harmony, community of inter-
est and perfect agreement. The
goal stands out in bold relief and
the way plain. All the new
league has to do is to raise the
wages and shorten the hours of
the city worker so that he can
live more comfortably and bring
the farmers children back to the
farm. To accomplish this the
new league proposes among
other things, voting by mail and
automatic registration, abolish
ment of the state senate and "the
removal of all unjust taxes from
productive industry and substi-
tuition of a more equitable meth
cd of taxation" just what this
method of taxation is to be was
very clear to the assembled del
egates. A labor delegate from
Portland declared that he has al
ways been in favor of the single
tax and said: "Under the pres
emit system of taxation the in
dustries of the country are bur-
dened with taxation with the re-
suit that this enormous contri-
button eventually is paid by the
consumer. Let us remove the tax
from the productive industries,
eliminate the shackles which
bind the consumers and place
the burden on the lands where
it belongs"
Great applause from the farm
err side of the house? Listen to
this: An upstate farmer said:
"Should a man attempt to
take your bread and butter,
you would call him a scab,
but to me this word is dis
tasteful, and / will refrain
from it's use. However, the
grange looks upon the single tax
movement as a deliberate at
tempt to rob them of their rev.
enue in that it has for it's pur-
pose the cultivation of all un-
used lands.
''The greatest difficulty the
CHANGERS have to face today is
the selling of their products at
reasonable prices. We have no
guarantee and the hazards at

SAM LANGFoRD TO PARIS; MAY
MEET CARPENTER.
Famous Heavyweight Will Sail for
France With Manager Carr Late in
February-Three Bouts at French
capital-Carr Accepts All Terms.

Milwaukee, Wis, Jan. 14.-There is
possibility that Jack Dempsey may
lose out for the chance for the quar-
ter of million dollar purse, providing
plans for Monsieurs Vienne and
Decoin, French promoters, materialize,
according to B. F. Steinel, Milwaukee,
representative of the French pro-
moters.
Howard Carr of Chicago, manager
of Sam Langford, colored heavy
weight, was in Milwaukee January 6
comforting with Steinel and while
here, accepted the cabled offer of the
French promoters to bring Langford
to Paris for a series of bouts, which
it is expected will lead up to a battle
with Georges Carpenter.
Manager Carr will leave late this
month or early in February and in
addition to Langford he will take
George Wilson also, another heavy
weight boxer, to France.
According to the present plans,
Langford is to engage in three bouts
in Paris, the first one with Niles,
ex-heavyweight champion, the second
with Paul Hams, present title holder,
and the final bout with Carpenter.
The French promoters have named
the terms under which Langford is to
box and Carr has accepted all of them.
Jack Kearns, manager of Jack
Dempsey, in letter received by
Steinel, said that he had the numer-
Gus offers under consideration at
present and that he did not intend to
close with any one for some time to
come.
