Price cutting is evidence of failure as. a salesman. During the last 120 years the United States has had more immigrants from Germany than from any other country.
Lest we forget—In 181K1 over 150 railroads went bankrupt and in 1857 soldiers guarded the national treasury against raids. Ivar Krueger, once known as the Ivar Kruegar, once known as the Swedish Match King, was*the master embezzler of all time. American investors invested about $225,000,000 with Krueger. Most of this is now lost. v
Thirty-five is the average age for members of the white race to start turning gray. If you are past age thirty-five and have no gray hairs, you are “holding your age” exceedingly well.
You will remember that the Prohibition Amendment went into"- effect on January 29, 1919. This amendment will stay in effect until 36 (three-fourths) of the states ratify the repeal. There are now forty-two states’ legislatures in session and two 1 others will be in session before the first of April. It is possible but not probable that the beer predicted for last Christmas will get here for the Fourth of July.
Secretary of Agriculture Arthur M. Hyde, suggests a plan to solve the problem of agricultural surplus as follows: “The Secretary of Agriculture should be given authority to lease 50,000,000 acres of land out of the 355.000.000 acres of total cultivated area now devoted lo the production of cotton, wheat, corn and other cereals and keep these fifty-million acres out of production for one year.” A real thrill is in store for those World’s Fair visitors who try the “-Skyride.” It consists of moving cars hung from a suspension bridge 200 feet above the water.

hungry boys and girls.
A few days previous the Federation of Citizens’ Associations adopted a strong resolution protesting against city officials being empowered to borrow money from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation for hunger relief if present funds become exhausted.

needy children.
“It looks to me like an opening wedge is being driven into the schools for Communism,” the clergyman protested. “Today somebody will want to give food, tomorrow someone will want to distribute shoes, and the next day somebody else will want to furnish clothes in the schools.” The plan was approved,/ how-

ernments.
The other man was found dying on the outskirts of the city where he had been trying to hitch-hike a ride to some unknown destination. Doctors said both victims had died from “heart attacks brought ou by undernourishment”—a polite definition of starvation. Washington does not give any relief to unemployed single men.
Bureaucrat “Struts Stuff” Commenting on the delay caused by the pastor’s opposition, Eleanor Patterson, editor of the Wkshington “Herald” said: “Although a $5,000 fund was freely offered to the school authorities to feed children in acute distress, was it freely accepted? Oh, no. The smug and solemn pedagogues, the vain and fussy bureaucrat had to ‘strut his stuff’. Men and women without vision, without mercy and without courage, whose first object and last acomplishment is to obstruct, had first to wrangle, quibble, and set forth their pettifogging argu-

your hand: BEAUTIFUL?
XJEAUTIFUL hands once marked the pampered jj 'lady of leisure” only. Lily white hands showed that she toiled not, neither did she spin ... But the modern mother and housev/ife can devote her hands to hundreds of loving tasks for her family, and still have the smooth, bewitching hands of romance. Electric cooking frees this modern woman from drudgery of the most depressing kind — the continual scrubbing and shining of soot blackened pots and pans. Perfect electric control of cooking also eliminates the old problem of removing food so scorched to the utensils that only hard work would remove it... more rough, reddened hands from strong hot suds and gritty cleansers. To l|ave beautiful hands is a woman’s delight... and electric cookery frees her from long hours spent over a fuel stove. We have many models.. . many new improvements in electric ranges. Let us demonstrate them to you in our showrooms.
