BEVERLY HILLS, Aug. "a.
(SpeciaD-As usual, Al Smith
made the best speech made on
the NRA. The most sensible and
clear reasoning in support of 1t.
I hope in all this readjustment
that some real important place
could be found where we could
utilize that fellow S good COM
mon sense.
And talking about what peo-
pie said. This Mccormick OF
Chicago, who has just returned
from Germany, editor of the
great Chicago Tribune mo,

astonishingly, but no doubt
truthfully, "along with the

Chaise lounges, each $3.50 1910
In all cases the same quality of
goods was used for the prices of last
winter and of today. Addition of a
reasonable profit for the storekeep-
er reveals how much consumer costs
have increased
Officials were doubtful whether
all these price rises could be laid
solely to cotton processing taxes and
10 increased labor costs under the
Rlue Eagle.
The blue Chambray work shirt
was taken as an example. Last VIM
ter such a shirt sold at retail for
so cents. 1t contained slightly less
than a pound of cotton, costing
about six cents.
Today the same shirt costs the
working man 95 cents. 1t still con-
tains the same amount of cotton,
now costing 9la cents.
Cost of the shirt has gone up 35
cents, while cost of its principal in
gradients has risen three and one
half cents. How much of the diff
ference can be laid to higher labor
costs and how much to profiteering
is a subject upon which government
accountants are working. Results of
their labors are to be made public
soon.

J nance Of her son and what she calls
"fast young woman" She'll read
this and get mad at Auntie Person
alities, but the public has to be served,
so into print the business goes.
For the benefit Of three wimmen
who have been worrying about where
FRED HENRY has been keeping him
self, and what he is doing, I might
say he is getting along nicely. He
took the attractive Miss RACHEL
JAMES to the ALPHA PHI ALPHA
paw-ty.
The fact that Auntie has stopped
having er-heart affairs once a week
seems to be worrying a few people.
Well, I've gone through the alphabet,
you sillies, so what? Methinks the
next flyer into romance this depart
ment takes won't be any alphabetical
business, but the real Mccoy. (How
much of this hooey you take seriously,
is up to you.)
I think that EARLEEN WALKER
must be causing DANNY ALLEN to
become absent minded. A week or so
ago, l caught Danny going into the
Geology building at fist hour on one
day when he didn't even have a class
there until second hour the following
day. When people start acting like
that, something's wrong, eh, what?
The young man at the St. Paul
beer garden who was going around
mumbling to himself Saturday night,
was only trying to determine how
spliffed he was by trying to pronounce
statistical statistics" Somebody
reads this column, evidently.
Are HARRYETTE WALLS and
CURTIE HARRIS still keeping COM
pany?" l suppose so; Harryette is
the only one who knows that Curtie's
weakness for all members of the
femme sex is just a blind to hide a
heart that beats constant and true.
Howzat for a poetic phrase?
Probably won't be seein' you next
week due to the unhappy event of
finals which comes to haunt the
dreams of Minnesota folks.

STRANGE LEGACIES
BY Sterling Brown

One thing you left with us, Jacl-
Johnson,
One thing before they got you.
You used to stand there like man,
Taking punishment
With golden, spacious grin;
Confident.
Inviting big Jim Jeffries, who was
boring in;
"Heah ah is, big boy; yuh sees whah
Use at.
Come on in :"
Thanks, Jack, for that.
John Henry, with your hammer;
John Henry, with your steel drivers
pride;
You taught us that a man could go
down like a man,
Sticking to your hammer till you
died,
Sticking to your hammer till you
died.
Brother,
When, beneath the burning sun
The sweat poured down and the
breath came thick,
And the loaded hammer swung like
a ton
And the heart grew sick;
You had what we need now, John
Henry.
Help us get it.
So if we go down
Have to go down
We go like you, brother,
Nachal men
Old nameless couple in Red River
Bottom,
Who has seen floods cutting out your
best loan,
And the boil weevil chase you
Out of your hard earned home,
Has seen the drought parch your
green fields,
And the cholera stretch your porkers
out dead;
Has seen year after year
The commissary always a little in
the lead.
Even you said
That which we need
Now in our time of fear
Routed your own deep misery and
dread,
Muttering, beneath an unfriendly sky,
Guess we'll give it one mo- try"
