Because the two leagues had sep
arate preInieres this year, the signifi-
canoe of the total figure is not les
sened. The approximate total of 22s,-
600 in all eight cities. restoring the
municipality to Brooklyn, probably
stands as the high mark Of base ball;
figures for other years are unavail-
able, but unquestionably they're
smaller.
The Yankee total officially was
74,217. the biggest base ball crowd Of
all time and $4,000 more than the last
biggest which squeezed into Braves

."Another astounding fact is that
Americans are forbidden by law
to do more things, aud by law
forced to do more things than were
the Russian people under the Gar

Kaiser. Moreover, nearly all of
these repressive, oppressive and
autocratic laws and regulations

force all laws with absolute equal.

"LeSf We Forget"
"a Communication.)

To the Editor of The ToMAHAwK:
A guest in the home of one of
your residents this last week, my
first visit was to the little cemetery
over the hill where lie so many
loved and revered by US aud those
who have been so much to US as a
people. And as l wandered thru
the narrow paths of the dead !
looked for a grave-a grave in
which lay one whose life had been
spent in effort for those he loved.
The grave Of one whose generous
big-heartedness was such that
when be passed away all he had
had been spent or given for others,
and little, if anything, left for his
very own. Rich in poverty he
was, for riches is counted not in
money but in deeds, and of these
there we're many to his credit. He
had ALWAYS given-from of his
time, his effort, his advice and,
too, of his money. Generous" "
some say, Ito a fault" tho there
is ONE who would not say that.
Yet l could not find the grave.
There was no stone to mark It's
place-IT WAS LOST. The shock
was great to me, and l thot, do
his people know thisY" The answer
was as quick, "Of course not. -
And so ! write this, to let all those
whom he has in any way helped or
who care to show their appreciation
of his worth as q man know they
may aid in raising a monument to
the memory of Gus. H. Beaulieu.

with ten dollars, and contributions
even to ten cents, for many child

Wages and Living Costs.

The American working man is
better off today than ever before.
Measured by purchasing power
wages are higher than in the
months of so-called "peak' in
1920.
The National Industrial Confer
euce Board reports that the wage
situation reflects at present the
higher level for real earnings as
weighted with what these earnings
will buy than at any time since
the war, not excepting the peak
of 1920. Cost of living in Jnly of
this year, which is the latest time
when comprehensive figures are
available, was 61-9 per cent above
the 1914 level. This was decline
of 20.8 per cent from the peake of
high prices in July 1920. Most
noteworthy were the increases in
rents throughout the country,
averaging Is per cent higher than
in 1914 and comparing with the
former peak of II per cent in the
spring of 1921.
Since March. 1922. m 10 Julv.
1928, there has been a gradual
rise in the cost of living aggrega-
ing A. per cent. Of this increase
IL per cent occurred since March
of this year.
Average cost of clothing in
creased less than 1 per cent SINCE
March of this year. In March,
1920, the clothing peake was III,
per cent above pre-wsr average.
Since then they have declined 80
per cent. There has, however,
been a slight increase since March
of this year, averaging 8 of per
cent for the average families
clothes. The net increase in the
family clothing bill is now 70 per
cent more than in 1914. II
Comparing living costs with
wages and hours of employment,
the board finds that wages now
have a higher purchasing power
than in 1920, when they were sup.
posed to be highest. During first
Of 1928 increased pay and the

Lizards and Deception.

A man recently found lizard
which has head on both ends of
its body. One pair of legs pull
him in one direction, the other
pair pull him the other. This liz
ard is probably an ancient species.
He could dart in either direction,
depending upon which offered him
the best defense or the most effec.
tive attack. Believers in evolution
contend that all life has evolved,
first from tiny germs, then from
insects, bugs, lizards and many
forms of strange crawling things
of few million years ago. He is
a strange animal to look at. With
toes pointing in opposite directions
and a head at either end of his
snaky body, this small monster
impresses one with his sinister
cunning and with his deception.
He is absolutely unreliable. He
cannot be depended upon. This
small lizard is constantly ION the
fence" ready to dart in the direc-
tiOn that best concerns his own
personal welfare. A million or
more years ago, honesty, reliabil-
ity, consideration, open-and-
abov-board action, were not
functioniug among the reptiles of
the period.
