Belt Takes Came From Geyser

Belt Takes Game From Geyser
Sunday afternoon the basketball
squad of the high school landed home
victorious, somewhat tired and
sleepy, but in the best of spirits. AL
though the boys were not confident of
winning they were not beaten before
the game. As the hall was very
small, the ceiling low, the team was
at a loss from the start. When the
boys found that long passing and long
shots wer impossible, they started TO
run up the score. The score at the
end of the first half was 10 to 2 in
favor Of Belt.
The second half was somewhat diff
ferent. The Geyser team had not lost
all hopes Of winning while Belt evil

man, woman and child In the nation.
These instances could be multiplied
almost endlessly. The country Is nood-
ed with novelties in the way OF new
foods, new sorts of wearing apparel,
new amusements and thousand and
one other new things totally unknown
to and unused by the man Of only one
generation ago.
What Automobiles Cost.
Perhaps the single biggest addition
to the cost of living Is the automobile.
Not SO many years ago the horseless
carriage was q curiosity regarded as
| practical only by visionaries. Today
every tenth person in the United
States has one. This means that every
| second family has one. A low average
| cost of running an automobile Is 81 q
day. This means that the American
people spend $1O.OOO.000 a day fol
automobile upkeep, as there are H.
OOO. 900 automobiles. This amounts
to $3.50, 100000 year, admittedly q
conservative figure.
A fair average price for an automo
bile Is $1,000 and an automobile viii
last. on an average, five years. Then
IL $1,000 car lasts five years, Il
costs 5000 a year, In addition to th'
upkeep. There are 100000 cars IL

The
Silver Lining

Look for the silver lining +"
caroled cheerful youngster evidently
familiar with the words Of the pretty
musical comedy song.
It was not easy advice to follow
thought Bill Barton, limping along In
the spring sunshine, watching the lads
sturdy legs that once in a while
skipped little through sheer exuber-
ance Of youthful energy and JOY. Bill
envied him. Once he had two good
legs like that and now-well-it might
have been worse. But the surgeons
had fixed him up. He wouldn't nave

when he came off the battlefield ana

He squared his shoulders-didn I

always been proud of those broad
shoulders.

There is a concrete example of what
is meant by saying that the cost OF
living has not increased in America
so much as the scale Of living has In
creased. Americans have more than
any other people In the world; they
are surrounded with bewildering
variety Of goods. most of which are
within reach Of the comparatively
deep purses Of the wage workers. 1t
is an old adage that he who pays the
piper Is entitled to call the tune

PROBLEM SUBJECT OF STUDY
Prices Have Not Risen so Much AZ tne
Number Of Commodities Regarded
as Necessities Has Null
tlplied.

Washington, D. C.-Nearly all the
strikes In recent years have been 10
obtain higher wages or to prevent lne
reduction of existing wages. In some
strikes only issues involving hours OF
labor and other working condltlons
have been involved, but, generaiiy
speaking. the strikes have been wage
strikes.
Since prices of commodities started
to go up with the outbreak OF the
European war especial stress mas Deeli
laid on the elements Of the cost OF
living as the principal argument Tor
wage increases or for retention, rather
than reduction, of established wage
scales.
This has led to special studies OF
the problem Of the cost of living. One
fact established Is that prices nave
not risen so much as the number OF
commodities regarded as necessities
has multiplied. In truth. the prices
of some staples are substantially low
er than they were years ago. F'urtner'
many commodities are within the
range Of comparatively low-wageo
workers which, because of rarity OF
| high price, were formerly wholly ou'
| of their reach. The net result OF the
study is that the whole question VI
| the cost of living Is relative.
Exact Comparisons Can't Be MADE.
There.is scarcely any one who does
not agree that the people should have
the additional things which they ENJOY
under modern conditions, but there Il
a desire to emphasize that exact com
parsons cannot be made and that u
say that the cost Of living has IN
creased is not wholly fair. The NOR
precise statement is that the cost o
modern living has increased.
