OPENED SATURDAY

The opening number of the Ly-
ccun1 course, held Saturday night IN
the auditorium of the new high
school, was well attended and the en-
tertainment furnished by the Metro
politan Orchestra, who opened the
season, was everything promised in
the advance notices sent out.
The course this year promises to be
even more successful than that of
other seasons and from the way the
season ticket sales showed up it is
believed that this will be the banner

the exception of slight shaking up,

PESSIMISM
in IRELAND
Over Latest Developments
In the Irish Negotia-
tiOnS
SITUATION Is
VERY SERIOUS
The Newspaper Correspon-
dents at Dublin Take
Gloomy View

London, Aug. 20.-Dispatehes from
Dublin to London newspapers appear
to reflect pessimism over the Irish
situation, in view of the latest devel-
opments. Henry w Nevinson, war
correspondent and author, telegraph
ing the Daily Herald, says the situa-
ton is Undoubtedly very serious" and
that he is "unable to see hope as
brightly as some do" He admits, how
ever, that hope still exists.
"If the Irish republican leaders, his
dispatch continues, "form the reply
to Great Britain's terms and submit
it to the Dali Eireann for approval,
rather than discussion, it almost GER
tainly will be accepted with minor al
terations. The members of the Dali
Eireann are, for the most part, accus-
toned to discipline and were elected
or appointed for field service. The
danger to further negotiations and a
subsequent peace comes from the in
nuence OF the CTlSIs anu uoctiludlIes
acting upon the spirit of militarism."
In discussing the prospect if negotia-
tions fail, Mr.. Nevinson declares: IF
the truce be broken, war in its most
terrible form will sweep through Ire
land. Civil war will be added to ma
tional war and all who refuse to sup
port the republican army will be driv-
en- from the country or shot"
The Dublin correspondent of the
Daily News says Lloyd George is be-
ing charged with rafting the sabre"
in his address yesterday in the House
of Commons. He says the speech may
do infinite harm.
ut is fact" he adds, "that sec
ton of the Irish republican leaders has
been playing the dangerous game of
bluff in order to secure better terms.
1t was desirable that Great Britain
make the plainest possible declaration
that the terms submitted were the
very best possible. Unhappily, how
ever, Prime Minister Lloyd George cou-
pied his declaration with threats which
will more than counteract the infu-
ence for good There is a general opin-
ion that the consequences are likely TO
be fatal"

DEAR MARIA" LETTERS AGAIN.
Brought to Light by Mrs. Bellamy
Storer's Publication.

Paris, Aug. 20.-Mrs. Bellamy Stor-
err has published for private circula-
ton a book which in large part relates
to her controversy with Theodore
Roosevelt over efforts to have Arch
bishop Ireland made CARDINAL con-
troversy which gained wide attention
through publication of the so-called
''Dear Maria" letters. The edition is
limited to 100 copies.
Entitled Theodore Roosevelt, the
Child" the book after giving anecdotes
of Mr.. Roosevelt in various stages of
his career, and making such deductions
as to his characteristics as the title
of the book implies quotes from let
tiers by him to the author and her hus-
band discussing the advisability of
the red hat for the archbishop. The
earliest letter relating TO the arch
bishop incident was written when Mr..
Roosevelt was governor of New York.
1t is understood that Mrs. Storer
withheld the brochure from general
circulation because of claims of the
Roosevelt family to proprietary rights
in all Mr.. Roosevelt's letters. The
book contains letter from Cardinal
Gibbons approving of Mrs. Storer's
plan to publish the letters.
One of the letters. written when
Colonel Roosevelt was police commits
sioner of New York, contains a scath-
ing denunciation of editors of a GER

whom, Joseph Bucklin Bishop. later

London, Aug. 20.-Recent reports
that cleavage has developed between
the ruling spirits of bolsheviki Russia
appear to be partially corroborated by
statements attributed to educated Rus
slams in special dispatch to the Daily
Mail. The correspondent declares he
has interviewed refugees along the
Russo Polish frontier, and quotes pro-
fessors, lawyers and others as denounc-
ing the bolshevik regime.
Without exception, however, the Rus
slams exempt Nikolai Lenine. the boil
shevik premier, from execration.

the dispatch says, the Russians shrug
their shoulders and smile, saying, He
is an idealist.' They count it virtue
that the Jews are eonspiring against
Lenine."
The correspondent asserts that the
division between the right, represented
by Lenine and NJ. Zinovieff, bolshevik
governor of Petrograd, and the left,
headed by Leon Trotsky, and NJ. Buch-
arin, editor of the newspaper Pravda,
is growing. The party of the right pro-

Williamstown, Mass, Aug. 20.-Not

Instead of looking facts in the
face and acknowledging that the dis
content of the Christian subjects of
the sultan was due TO bad admins
tration the European powers evoked
the DOGGY of Russian agents, provoca-
teurs and pan-Slsvist Vaccinations. If
there were really such underhand IN
1uences at work it was because they
found receptive minds ready to sub
init TO them. The best way to para
lyze any intrigues against the safety
of the Turkish empire was to remove
the causes upon which they were
founded. Ample proof Of this was af-
forded by those territories of Turkey
where the people had been endowed
with some kind of home rule and where
in the place of former lawlessness law
and order prevailed. Turkey might
still have existed as an empire if the
European powers had by extending
such self-government TO the various
provinces secured their attachment

How does il look ?"

WAGES AND THE DOLLAR.
Value of Former Measured By What
They Will Buy.
Communicated

In the days when money was not
commonly used as a medium for ex-
changing values, the matter of wages
was easy to adjust. A worker ex-
changed his days labor for so many
bushels of corn or wheat which com
modities furnished his family a def
mite amount of satisfaction and com
fort. In other words, the value ex-
changed for service rendered was GER
tain.
To-day, however, money enters in to
eomplicate the relation between labor
and its reward. In the final analysis a
wage is measured by the amount of
human wants it will satisfy.
We speak in this country of that
more or less familiar dollar, probably
less familiar, now days, as a piece
of commonplace paper printed in green
and black, and thoroughly understood
by everyone. But not SO.
This little dollar may be common
place, but it is rarely understood; in
1920 it would buy us barely four
pounds of sugar, whereas to-day it
will buy us Is pounds of sugar. The
difference comes about through changes
IN price.
Thus il can be reasoned that the
value of dollar, and of mans wages
depend upon prices. Real wages" as
the economists call them are the
amounts of food, clothing, shelter and
comfort that pay envelope will pur-
chase, and not how many of those
tricky little dollars are contained in
side.
The adjustment, that must always
work in more or less rough manner,
is that as prices rise wages must rise,
and as prices fall wages must fall. The
real wages" as measured in salts
faction of human wants will always
be the same.
