States is to be well balanced between
farming and manufacturing produc-
ton or whether this nation will to a
large eeXtent forsake the land to go
into the factory, depending upon ten
ant farming and imports for susten-
ance.
A new note in the general thought
OF aid TO rthe farmer has been sounded
by former Governor of Illinois Frank
.. Lowden, who believes that the
greatest single factor which will con-
tribute to farming prosperity is the
provision of sufficient warehouses to
enable the farmer to make a fat year
provide for the lean ones, stabilize
prices by holding too plentiful crops
against the day of sparse crops, and
preventing any such disastrous eco
nomic catatstrophes as has been seen
in the prosperity which came to cot
ton raisers as a result of bollweevil
destruction of cotton, and the need for
corn farmers to burn their grain as
fuel.

The country sympathiIes with
the sentiment if not the exact Ian
guage of the profanity of Brig
Gen. Dawes, former budget direc-
tor, speaking of the opposition he
met from department heads in re-
ducing swollen budget estimates.
Dawes achievement as Budget
Director was a real one; he had
the courage to cut down 1,700 mil
lion dollars of estimates submitted
to him.

Government must be reduced fur
ther. There is a wide, wide gap
between the 763 million, dollars of
its ordinary expenditures" in tie
fiscal year 1914 and the 1878 mil
lions paid out last year.
The money saved by immediate
contraction of swollen Federal
bureaus will be available for ad-
justed compensation to the soldiers
who won the war. Senator Nc
Cormick has said: "Stop the waste

n lETlSTS and relatively pluto
cratic journalists are wont to
i indulge in platitudes regard
ing the pay of professors and
teachers. They like to say that
these good folks should teach for
the joy of teaching and in response
to a 'call' similar to that which
was supposed to make ministers
unmindful of the material reward
for their labors.
Which was all very well while
the community held such workers
in highest esteem and gave them
a social status more valuable than
money. Today all professionalism,
whether religious or educational
has in practical sense become so
secularized that proper pay must
be attached to these activities if
they are to continue to attract
even those fine, consecrated souls
who may still be said to hear q
call to this most precious type of
social service.
We should hear and heed the cry
of such women as Mrs. Bruce, wife
of a member of the faculty of the
University of California. She as
serts that the wife of an instructor
must choose between childlessness
and the anguish of humiliation of
many years of debt and drudgery.
According to her working girl
can afford to spend five times as
much on clothes as a professor
wife.
Most women probably spend too
much thought and time and money
on clothes. Leaving that aside,
it would seem to be perfectly OBJ
vious that there must soon be an
adjusted compensation which
shall enable working women to
spend not less for all the neces-
saries and comforts but professors
and ministers wives and women
teachers much more.

Here are few:
The law of magnifiCation OF a

The law Of the microscope is that
it's lenses increase the angle of
vision OF a near object but small.
Therefore both magnify. for mag

Of view-angles.

WE shall know better how far

W has spread among women
when we learn the fate of the
long skirt.
Many women say they are going
to revolt against that fashion.
But will they9 Have they indi-
vidually and collectively the nerve
to look a fashion in the face and
tell it to go TOT
If male opinion is of any
value, we should say that the long
skirt is enough to warrant a re-
volt.
Apart from it's waste of fabric
at a time when the tariff is ex-
pected to hoist prices, and regard
less of its obscuring effect upon
comely feminine members, it is a
dust trailer, a hamperer of loco
motion and not in any degree an
addition to woman's perennial
charm. .- d..
But it will mark the advent of
a new era if a little matter like
common sense has any appreciable
effect in determining the fate Of
a fashion.
