co by the industrial board, and the
outlook brightens.
This evidence does not forecast
any sudden slump. Such a develop
ment would be disastrous and is not
to be desired. But it does show
realization OF the need to stabilize
and reduce prices where possible.
More people are realizing the danger
Of speculation and profiteering. The
government is becoming more vigil

adjustment. No future is assured,
but there is announcement in read
iustment for those who have found
the struggle hard.
And this hope persists some influ-
ences which make for higher prices.
These include the scarcity of farm
labor. The shorter acreage and prob
able smaller yield, Higher freight

taxes still tend to maintain the high
level. But growing understanding

RECIPE FOR A HAPPY LIFE

Written early in the 10th century,
Three ounces are necessary first
of patience
Three Of repose ana peace; of con.

OF pastimes Of all sorts too,
Should be gathered as much as
the hand can hold:
OF pleasant memory and of hope

There must be at least But they
should moistcncd be
With a liquid made from true
pleasures which rejoice the
heart.
Then of loves magic drops a few
But Use them sparingly, for they
may bring a flame
Which naught but tears can
