know what the future holds forth in the way of
higher or lower sugar prices, your guess would be

if you need sugar, buy what you need.

Although majority of the American people prob
ably do not favor league of nations am sure all
hareds and eaousies between nations do not exist.
Therefore, the article which, in my opinion,
eclipsed all others for genuine interest and impor-
tance that which directly concerned America and
the peace of all mankind
This article appeared Thursday and headed,
Macdonald Seeks Harmony With United States" 1t
forth the English premers future policies toward
the world and toward the United States in particular
Mr.. Macdonald's chief aim will be to promote
good will between all nations Especially does he de-
sire the good will Of the American people. As proof
of this the labor party will endeavor obtain
early ratification of the AngloAmerican liquor treaty.
which will, doubt, greatly suppress the rum
threatened defeat the ends of the prohibition law.
But, most important of all Mr.. Macdonald sides
with the United States the question of disarma-
ment. He would welcome another disarmament
ference and believes that the time will come when
take the place of armies and fleets in settling interna
tional disputes.
This policy of Englands first labor premier has
been awaited with interest by the whole world Such
a policy cannot fail to make our relations with the
only other Englsh.speaking nation what they should
be- or to make the whole world tend toward perma-
nent peace.
Thus because this article tells us what policies
Eneands first labor premier will pursue, and because
those policies will directly affect America and the
whole world, consider it by far the interesting
and important article have read during the week.

Halloween Parties
Take Place of
Old Time Franks

Several have been heard to COM
ment lately on the dearth of activi-
ties for the weeks preceding Hal
lowe'en, and this has indeed been
true Of late years. Halloween is no
longer a time when every house
holder must stay up to protect his
property, as it used to be in years
gone by. Young America in Gardi-
ner still find plenty to do on All
Halloween eve. but, none of their
escapades approach those of 10
years ago. A scene OF desolation
used to be expected on the morning
after, but now there are but few
steps or blinds. that move far from
their original resting place, As is the
case with Fourth of July celebra-
tons, undoubtedly the prohibition
amendment has something to do with
this.
To some extent parties have taken
the place OF the former amusement.
Halloween parties have been in or
der for a week now. and any party
within several weeks of the date is
characterized by orange an dbiack
decorations, and Halloween stunts.
From the big Halloween dariDe at
the Shrine Club last night TO the
smallest youngsters" party this is
true.
