Says Woman at
Bargain Counter

CHICAGO. Nov. 6-One woman
plus one bargain counter equals
African savage.
The same instincts which cause
the savage TO trade a bunch Of ban
anas for a string OF beads impel the
American woman TO seek the bargain
counter for a fall hat, according TO
Prof T. A. Steiner. Of Grinnell uni
versity.
1T takes a tremendous amount Of
faith 20 believe in the human race
when one stands on a street corner
on dull day and watches the fe-
male OF the species bent on bargains.
Steiner said.
There Is no instinct stronger in
the human race than the desire TO be
set aside as somebody. Both the
savage and the bargain hunter feel
the same glow OF pride when the
question is asked where did you
get this?'
I'VE do not need any more brain
power. What we need is more char
acter.
This thing today is craftsmanship.
Every religion Is for sale We have
forgotten about liberty and the right
