Fo that wo arp moi called producers by a rritioigng public"
 Presidents CT organizations usually slE what they mean when addressing members of their organization, This remark oT the president Of the retail era' council displays sound eeHeepr ton of the situation and ono which wilt gmtlfy the purchaser, Moreover, taken in connection with the com mcnt of Alvin Y, nodd, manager of the Domestic Distribution Depart munt of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, it mNy he seen to be founded on good reasoning.
 "fhc period of tallins prices is well under way as everyone knows" said Mir, podd, and if not interrupted hy too violent economic npheaNals may he expected h continue for | pro- tractcd period, The retail merchant has by now liallidaied his stock of goods purchased at wartime prices, and from now on the decrease will be slower and will be dependent on q falling in price of raw material and production costs"
 Thus 1t may be seen that there is optimism among merchants and hope for tho purchaser. The latter ,how- ever, must not expect any further sudden drops in retail prices, The process will he slow that the mer- chant may live, but as the cost of those things which go into the make up Of the articles hc sells falls the price will fall bringing the sort of re- turn to the normal which will follow the rule of live and let live.

THE COLD RED SE."

Another of the old things that is fading in sweet memory is the Tit tic red schoolhouse. It will shock those who cherish traditions of the past as dear to- their hearts to learn that the present day pupils of the rural schools are more unhealthy than those of the city schools. 4
 More than half of the children of this country are attending these rural schools. A Chicago clergyman is au- thority for the statement that exam ination of 10000 school children in New York State over a four-year period shows health defects in 72 per cent Of the children in city schools and in ST per cent of the pupils in rural schools. Moreover for the last ten years the death rate in rural New York was 1o per cent and in New York city 1t was only 1s per cent
 Granting that these figures are true it is rot a sign that the conditions surrounding rural schoolS-the little rcd schoolhouscs Of the land-are less healthfu than they were when rniid'c-aged people of today attended ;nem The scenery about them is just as picturesque; many of the sanle games arc played by the chil-'I Gren. The recess hour is greeted just as eagerly and the teacher stands in thn door in tho same old way, some frowning as many remember her, i eomo smiling as rarer recoIlections como The children are the same and ! many of the schoolhouses are the same.
 But the fact that in late years moro i and more attention has been given to tlic tealth of children in schools, and | the fact that such attention has been | carried much further in urban oom- muntics than in rnral districts has brought the result that tho health of the city children has improved while that of the country children has re- nained about tho same And as time goes on tho health of children in schools will continue to Improve be- cause of the growing realization of

FRENCH ARMY SERVICE.

Report comes from Paris that when the Recruiting bill comes up in the French Chamber of Deputies an amendment will be offered which will provide for but one years obligatory service in the army, and that there will be another providing for but eight months such service.
 The Socialists and the Radicals arc the sponsors for these suggestions, it is said. It is reported also that there is strong support for such measures among the Liberals. The idea is, it seems, to provide in place of longer pero of obligatory service, more thorough plan for having q skeleton upon which to build an army Tn case of need. This is the plan of our country, and this is the plan that would be favored by a people con templating no immediate wars, put determined to have a plan. whereby 1t would be possible to recruit a large army in case of necessity,
 As people of this country are thor- oughly in favor of being prepared Tor war in this way rather than through the maintenance of large standing army, so they will look with favor up- on any change in Frances military arrangements It will be taken as rood and encouraging sign, and as the obligatory military service IS re- duced in France so will grow Amer ;,,.s confidence in Frances wisdom and good intentions.

WOMEN AND CITY AFFAIRS |

Councilman Howard $, Hart refer rcd to the knowledge of city aIairs possessed by some of the women Of the Third ward when he spoke on the matter of salary cuts at Wcdnes- day evenings council meeting. He said that he had received from wom- cn many replies 10 his letter Of in- uuiry on the subject Of cuts and that many of those letters contained Nalu- able suggestions. Incidcntly he re- marked that he hoped to be able to collect all the letters of suggestion, presumably from men and women and put them before the council at later day
 II is not at all surprising that in establishing direct communication with voters MT. Hart found some facts which surprised him and which would surprise any other member of the council who took the trouble to
  the public sentiment was on ques- tion. One may disagree from the plies from between seven and eight hundred voters out of q possible popular sentiment. But there may be no questioning the good that such di may be no questioning the assertion that the women of the ward have of city government.
 The soner men realize that women subjects which men have not been ac- customed to think they are interested will benefit from the suggestions women have to offer
 And as the men must realize that the opinion Of many woman is worth considering even in city affairs so women ,must remember that men are to bes better informed as to the practical working of politics and as to the feasibility of any suggestions they may make. A mutual ccnsdera- ton and patience will do much to bring to city affairs the new and often valuable womans viewpoint, and to bring to the new voters a practical knowledge of the working of the city machinery which, unfortunately, too often prevent the adoption of sug- gestions and plans which would be ideal if they were but practical.
