THIS YEAR'S CROPS AND THE HIGH COST OF LIVING The crusaders In public and private life against high food prices will be relieved to some extent if the present outlook for the country's harvests Is borne out by the actual results. This Is the opinion of Secretary Wilson of the department of agriculture. "Beef will be cheaper than It has been for a number of years," says the secretary. "The best beef Is fed on corn, but with that cereal so scarce in the last year that It soared to 70 cents a bushel many cattle raisers felt that they could not feed their cattle for slaughtering purposes on corn and get their money back. The result was that little good quality beef entered Chicago and prices rose." The estimates contained in last week's government grain report show that the advantage this year will He with the consumer rather than with the producer. The December price of corn at Chicago as of August 9 was 8 cents, or 11 per cent less than in 1911, so that although the crop Is 2S0, 000,000 bushels larger it will be worth less by about $49,000,000. Similarly on the same basis of comparison there Is a decline In the price of wheat of cents, or about 6 per cent, and In oats of 11H cent, or 25 per cent.

ADVOCATES PUBLIC CENSOR

Miss Virginia Brooks, who sees In a minute more things to reform than the average good citizen sees in a year, this morning discussed a measure which will undoubtedly appeal to many people. Miss Brooks' suggestion is that the city council appoint a board

of censors for public entertainments, her aim belngdirectly at the theaters and -moving picture shows. People seeking entertainment," said Miss Brooks, "have little fault to find with the moving pictures, for they are usually censored by a national board. It Is the vauJeville that Is too frequently objectionable. It may not be downright Immoral,- yet It may be coarse. For Instance, the so-called Jokes on affinities cannot but help to Impress the young and lmpreslsonable mind, and destroy the ideal of the sacredness of the marital relation. There

are a thousand and one others, and to my mind the managers - of the play houses ought to be only too glad to permit their entertainments to be censored before they are given to the

public."

CHILD'S EXPRESSION.The expression of the face is a habit.

There are causes behind the habit, as

good health or poor, pleasant or unpleasant circumstances, and so on. yet It Is a habit. As such It can be changed either way. A bright. Interested, cheery expression should be cultivated

as carefully as any other good habit. The child should be reminded gently of a wrong tendency of this kind, made to cease frowning, get rid of sullen looks, taught to pay attention to what

is said and what is going or. around it, to look people In the face when ad

dressed or when speaking In the coun-

teance.

Among other means to this end, at

tention has been called by observers to the importance of the expression of the face before going to sleep. It Is asserted, that the countenance retains

during sleep the expression at the

moment of falling asleep, and that this is accountable for tha set look so often observed. ' The mother should keep this

in mind and strive to implant bright, cheery thoughts and to win smiles from the child as it begins its slumbers. A song, a. story, an anecdote of the day

that will kindle the mind with a feel

ing of Joy and peace, are advisable as

a last Impression, says Mother Maga

zine. When we remember that the

Joyous expression that goes with the beginning of sleep is apt to remain on the face during the considerable pro

portion of the twenty-four hours spent In rest, we may see how much it tends toward creating a permanently happy expression. i
