The statement concludes:
''Based on the above overhead, in
terest and depreciation charges,
butcher retailing beef only at gross
profit of 25c per pound would have
to sell 21S6O pounds of beef per year
tc come out even."
The housewives regret that definite
and accurate figures with reference to
the eight items specified above have
not been obtainable as regards the
local dealers, but since the latter seem
willing to let the above figures rep
resent them, the housewives accede.
We feel, however, that Items |, 3, D.,
and 7, greatly overstate the facts
with reference to the local dealers.
We doubt very much whether single
butcher shop in Columbus has in 1t
an investment of over $500 in fixtures
and tools, and yet accepting these
figures as accurate and the percentage
of shrinkage indicated 5000 as not
too great, little reasoning 'only is re-
ouired to show the fallacy of the meat
mems logic.
The maximum price charged by
tbem during the war for local beef
was only thirty-five cents, when the
costs stood approximately as follows;
Cost on foot (average) ..''' lac To-
Shrinkage 500 (using above
fgures) .............'''''' &c io'
/ Total cost ''''zle ID
/ And yet the price asked then was
only 35 cents, price which has beer
steadily maintained since, despite the
reduction of original costs to ten
cents, according to the above figures
If, as claimed by the statement, the
butchers had to have a gross profit
of twenty-five cents per pound, their
selling price during the war period
should have been forty-seven cents
for at that time they were paying
from twenty to twenty-five cents pei
pound (including 50fs shrinkage) fol
their meat. But the meat men very
magnanimously did not ask that price
with their 25 cent gross profit requir
ed for them to come out even: they
asked only So cents. And now wher
their meat is costing them from ter
to twelve cents a pound less, and theil
running or overhead expenses ar
presumably the same,--certainly no
more,--they say they must continue
to charge the same price Of S5 cent
in order to come out even. 1t would

HEALTH MAGAZINE
C0MBATS DISEASE

Safeguarding the public health of
the state and pointing the way to a
better. healthier community, new
publication, the Utah Public Health
Journal, Issued by the Utah Public
Health Association and edited by
james III. Wallis, executive secretary,
has made H. appearance A copy of
The first Issue, just off the press, was
received yesterday in this office and
speaks well for the new note sounded
in community welfare.
Any opportunity offered by the
state to improve or increase the good
health of its inhabitants, is to be Avid
ly seized upon by the little health
journal and It's doctrine sounded to
all corners of the state.
AS an example of its policy to en-
courage and advertise the various
health phases Of the state is an illu
minat,ng article by Miss Lennie Il. Ar.
ihur, Slutc supervisor of nurses, de
voted To the activities of the public
health and school nurses Of the state.
There Is no community in the state but
what IS visited at some time during
The year by registered nurse whose
duty Is not only to aid In teaching the
care Of the sick, but to locate cases Of
disease and report them TO the proper
authorities, always keeping Wig
liant lookout for the first dread symp
toms of tuberculosis, and to teach Il
proper health living, which is u sure
preventative for all disease.
Although there are number OF
nurses at present in the field, IL Is
hoped to Increase the service, by the
first of the year. At present there
are not sufficient nurses to approx
mately care for the health OF the state,
but with the employment OF more
which is hoped to be effected through
The sale of Christmas seals, the health
of the state will be materially raised
next year. This Is thoroughly ex-
planned In an enthusiastic article by
Mr.. Wallis.
How Utah cares for her people, who
through Illness, poverty. and ignorance
are unable To care for themselves is
graphically told by Miss Kate VIII.
ANS, executive secretary of the Asso-
Gated Charities. According 10 Miss
Williams, fifty per cent Of the poverty
In the state Is caused through Illness
OF the breadw.nner or some member of
the family. Practically all of this III
ness is preventable through proper
health living, and many cases Of III
hess may he arrested and cured
through the same simple health rules.
1t is to spread the gospel Of this sane,
health life, that the Utah Public
Health Journal has taken up the arms
and ammunition of clean communities
and health curriculum In the schools.
This later is embodied In the Modern
Health Crusade, II fascinating move
ment, possessing all the appeals OF
drama, play. adventure, and contest.

GOD AS HE IS SEEN
BY THE TURKS
MOhammedanism Has No
Redeemer Says an East
ern Educator

Rev. George E. White, D. D.,
president OF Anatolia College,
Marsoyan, Turkey. in an article
which was recently printed in the
Missionary Review of the World
discusses the Turkish idea OF God.
Tho article is as follows:
A mans idea OF God fixes his
viewpoint for his theology and his
theory as to his own place III this
world and in the world 10 come.
The Turks suppose that they arS
good Mohammedaus and believe in
the Allah of the Koran without adj
dItion to or subtraction from any
OF his attributes. Yet the coucep-
ton OF the Divine Ruler prevalent
among any people may differ con-
siderably from that which is pre-
scented III their orthodox scriptures.
Twentieth century Turks have
drawn upon at least two hlstoT-
ical sources outside their sacred
literature for their religious con.
ceptions. While their standard
theology has como with the liter
azure Of Mohammedanlsm from
n foreIgn-that is an Arabian
origin, they retain some lingering
remnants OF the religious heritage
brought by their forefathers out Of
the depths OF central Asia twenty
generations ago. They have also

stumbling block and an offense to
them, partly because Of the habit
OF their minds to NJ on a physical
relation, instead OF q sonship OF
character. Mohammedans deny
the Son, and hence, as John says,
Il John 2:33) they have not the

sense OF that term. Convicted by
conscience of sin, dreadinG the
awards Of the future life. they
strive to keep up enough OF the
form of piety to escape being
caught in any objectionable sin,
and seek some mediator whose "In.
fiuence" may be enough 10 get them
safely through. They lack the inn
pulses arising from personal 10y
atty to a worthy master; thev lack
the relation arising from filial love
to God the Father.
The following incident from a
mosque gives CHARACTERISTIC
Turkish view OF the obligation aud
relation of man toward God in
the life OF this world. The great
mosque was full OF men. and the
noja eloQuently depicted the ma
iesty and the mercy Of God, the
frailities and the foibles Of men.
Men sin because they forget God,
he went on. and they, forget Goa
because they love the world too
much. 1t is illustrated by a man
walking over plain. who finds
himself pursued by lion. Casting
about for place OF safety, he
finds well with platform about
half way down. on which he takes
refuge. The lion comes to the
