come. psychologist might easily maintain that it is the ideal pastime for those who are waiting for business to pick up.
 Oddly enough, the present-day jg-saw puzzle is not made with a jg-saw, but is stamped out of cardboard composition with die, making it's production very cheap More costly productions are sawed out. Here and there is individual who has fitted up jig-saw and makes his own puzzles That is just laborious solving them but is a trifle more satisfying to the creative instinct
 Like many another modern pastime the jig saw puzzle is rooted in antiquity. The ancient Egyptians it is recounted, used to while away the long summer afternoons with just such puzzles Doubtless it is safe to give the jigsaw puzzle an- other year or so and then predict its prompt demise. If it be true that it's popularity is the psychological response to depression and idleness then we may devoutly hope that the jig-saw puzzle makers go broke in short order. Let them try de- presson awhile.

THE MEANING OF BARTER.

Each new day brings new instance in which unemployed groups have worked out system of barter. The Empire has recently published serles of articles in which number of the systems were described In many the bartering is aided by a municipal issuance of scrip and the two are com bined as a means of escape from total indulgence. There are almost as many schemes as there are towns attempting this form of relief since the same set of conditions under which they are evolved are not duplicated in any two of them. However, nearly all of them are in essence an adaptation of the ancient system of barter
 The plan is most readily applied in smaller towns, where farmers come in to trade their food supplies for the articles they need In the small town there is the physical set-up for the barter system In great cities the groups which might bargain are too far apart and this has deterred the unemployed from the self-help that is possible through trading their labor for food and fuel although in some towns like Seattle it has been tried with modifications.
 Barter, however, cannot be applied extenslVely in an industrial society without reverting to "a permanently low standard of living It is better than starvation for those without jobs or resources But it is not much better, in comparison with the living standard possible through mass production and a money economy.
 Perhaps the real significance of the movement tc barter is in its vivid preoE that we have made bad job of administering our industrial system Magnificent factories are closed while outside hun dreds of men and women are bartering their labor for a bit of food very much as primitive cviliza- ton traded food and handmade articles. Highly trained technicians are in need and vast sums of credit lie idle Barter is helpful scheme to save a few persons from want, but, most of al it is a challenge to America whose confusion in crisis is proved by this reversion to a primitive barter economy.

TAXES AND INCOME.

Governor Conner of Mississippi recently said: "A tax system must recognize and establish the rela-
 on between the income producing condition of the people and the amount of money the Government is allowed to spend"
 This states a truth that has been neglected too much in recent years When times were good, at least superfcialy, and money was circulating freely, taxation rates went sky-hgh to keep pace with the rockeng expenditures of National, State County and Municipal administrations. Today the situation is reversed People generally begin to realize that expenditures for public purposes like those for private uses ought to be based upon equitable taxa ton equably levied and not taxation based upon how much money National, State County and Municipal governments spend.

OUR CULTURE MOVES ON.

Periodically ancient pastime is taken up and made fad by large numbers of American people played for all it is worth and then cast intt the limbo of forgotten and useless things This gen. eration has fallen for Nah Jong crossword puzzles and backgammon and comes the jig-saw puzzle to it's day of popularity The earlier ones had ther devotees by unnumbered thousands, and now retain a goodly number after the flush has waned. But each of them has, at times, been the founda- ton of a big industry so long as millions, not just hundreds were actively interested 4
 The current enthusiasm for the jg-saw puzzles seems to have developed gradually, supposedly re- flecting the increased leisure that came with busi- ness depression and unemployment Certainly, the jg-saw puzzle in it's elaborate forms, requires not merely leisure but state of mind that envsages nothing important to be done for long time to
