THE PROMISE OF THE CROPS

The government crop experts
for June indicates largely increas-
ed yields of wheat and oats, and
this news is full of hope and pro-
mise of prosperity. Some farmers
may say that they would be bet
ter off if they had a small crop at
high prices, as then they could
make their harvests with less labor
and other costs.
But while such conditions may
seem for the time being to promise
the farmer equally good returns
with less effort, the results are
much less favorable on the com
munity as a whole. The farmer
will be prosperous only when the
rest of the country is well off
Moderate prices for food are an
essential of community welfare.
If prices of the leading staples are
high, large elements of people re-
duce their consumption, and have
poorly provided tables that fail to
tempt the appetite. The results
must be a lowered physical con-
dition, and less ability to work
which reacts unfavorably on pro-
duction and slows up the business
machine.
insufficient crops and high cost
foods caused under feeding in
Europe during the war. While
production has greatly increased
over there except in Russia, yet
there must be still many poorly
nourished people Abundant AM
erican food would be a wonderful
blessing to them in their poverty
stricken condition.
Physical deterioration due to UNI
der feeding will exploin a good
deal of the lassitude and disturb
ance which have been manifested
in Europe since the war 1t has
been said that the reason why the
English are so anxious to do bust
ness with the soviet Russian gov
eminent is that they think they can
get food cheaper there than in
America. Our farmers. who think
our food prices have been below
cost of production will not SYM
pathize with that idea. But lareG

prices. will enable us to do much
more business with Europe than if,

The invariable rule Of prices
changes is that any commodity
that has been below the general
price level will shortly begin to
20 up and that those commodities
which have been too high will ev-
entually begin to fall. Economists
and fnanciers think that with our
present supply of gold. prices will
eventually stabilize around $50.

Farmers have been justified this
last year in feeling that they have
not received fair prices for their

Rersan Glass Enjoy
1Ininne Party

The Berean Glass of the First Bap-
4;st Church enjoyed another one of
;ts delightful entertainments ON last
.Tbursday evening at the home of the
toa~ber. Mrs. S. HI. Hall, on Lawrence
Street. -.
This class is made up of a splendid
body of young men organized with
IFS own officers and committees, and
among other things it provides for "a
social committee and social fund and
oranges a recreation feature for it's
members about every six weeks.
Several weeks ago this class had a
most unusual and enjoyable 'kid par
ty". when the girls were dressed in
cingham aprons with ribbon bows on
their hair and the boys wore rompers,
and sailor suits and the children"
brought with them to the party dolls,
marbles, tops and other things to
make kid party" realistic.
In contrast to this affair, the party
given last week was an cold folks
party" and a great deal of cleverness
and originality were displayed in the
costumes worn; the girls with their
powdered hair, on which rested dain-
ty caps, their tight basque effect
bodices, their skirts with head peck
cts, their large shawls and spectaCles
produced an effect quaint and lovely.
The "old ladies'" that were especially
charming in their costumes were Mis-
ses Katherine Runyan, Gertrude Kin
caid, COrinne Settles, Misses Fiske
and Young, and Mrs. Earl Medford.
Among the old gentlemen, Robert
Nell was CONSPICUOUS in a clever cos
tune He had a "bald" head, long
white whiskers, a walking cane and
cob pipe and looked as if he might
have stepped out of some story book.
During the evening old fashioned
games were played in keeping with
the occasion after which angel food
cake and cherry cream were served.

Cunning Story Written by
Marietta Child

The little story quoted below which
appeared on the Boys and Girls
Page" in the Magazine Section of
the Atlanta Journal last Sunday was
written by Homer Cleveland Rey-
nolds, little nine year old son of Mr..
and Mrs Welborn Reynolds, of Mari
eta. Homer is a pupil of Mrs. R. H.
Hutchinson and the story was repro
duced by him from a story read him
by his teacher in school and acting
entirely on his own idea, he sent it
to the Boys and Girls Page" which
he reads every week. 1t is beauti-
fully expressed and we'll written for a
child of his age.
Homer is unusually we'll read and
we'll informed for a nine year old,
and most interesting little fellow.
His latest ''hobby" is writing letters
to his friends on small typewriter
which he got recently and which he
has learned to use very accurately.
