while other omrnodities are denied space on the score of their non essential character. It would be interesting to. know the names of the Importers of these German toys, and whether or not they exhibited a politically commendable spirit of generosity and patriotism by subscribing to the democratic campaign fund this year, with a view to presenting that "joy in Berlin" which, w were told by the democratic national committee, the election of a republican congress would bring? No wonder Germany accepts Mr. Wilson's third principle.

NOT TOO EARLY TO BEGIN. The splendid letter which apeared recently in these columns from ihe pen of Lieut errant Frank A. Keenan, U. S. A., an East Chicago boy now overseas, was one which deserves every consideration. It dealt with a subject which is very near and dear to the heart of ;h peopl (he return of America" splendid army to these shores and a public recognition of that eTent. Nothing yet has been done by any city in the Calumet region in preparation for a demonstration when these boys reiurn. There has been considerable? talk but no action. It is time to take action now. Every city will of course want a celebration of its own, but will it not be possible to hare a demons) ration in some city of the Calumet region for a county-wide jubilee in which all the cities and towns .hall take part? It could be made a historic event and one that would never be To-gotten in the county. The thousands of boys from ftll over the county who have been overseas deserve the greatest public honor that can be accorded them. Every man, woman and child wants to see them all. They wart to show their appreciation of their sacrifice and willing nesj to sacrifice. The encomiums heaped on Corporal Eric Lund, the Hammond contractor, who enlisted as a private when he could have got a commission, as given by Lieutenant Keenan. show an appreciation by a gallant soldier of Corporal Lund's true worth to his country.

A THANKSGIVING FOR THE FOOD PROFITEERS. Perhaps you didn't do any Thanksgiving shopping yourself. If you did you surely must have ben struck by the fact that there was something pathetic about the sights to be seen in all the markets and groceries. To most people Thanksgiving means nothing whatever unless they can have something out of the ordinary for the dinner. It is a dinner of all dinners, and if it isn' Thanksgiving would come to mean only a nominal thing, it was a solemn faced shopping crowd. The markets were crowded. The usual smiles were absent. People carried little baskets in their arms, and it is of the peo

ple who are not able to phone for anything their hearts j

Wage earners and housewives looked around with their hungry eyes fastened on turkeys and fancy groceries. You couldn't help feeling sorry for them. You could see their wishes depicted on thir faces as they entered, but a query as to the prices put their wishes out of the question with turkeys at 50 Tents, butter at 74, eggs at 76, grapes at 75, bananas at at), rouml steak at 40, pork chops at 55, apples 10 cents apiece, what jo.r was here in Thanksgiving dinner shopping? A shopper could spend a five dollar bill and hardly have enough to fll a little basket. You could see them think of the little ones at home with their healthy, hungry appetites and wonder what oa earth they could buy to fill them kh the spirit of Thanksgiving. The probability is that by Christmas butter; ec?, fowls and fruits will be practically unattainable for the average householder. Everything els has gone np in proportion. The outrageous and inexcusable prices tagged on the necessities of life are a crying shame to high heaven. No one of course blames the retailer. Their mar

gin Is small enough. There isn't a retailer living who I

wouldn't rather have prices back where they were three years ago for people are denying themselvs as they never have denied themselves before and they simply can't buy what they long for. "When one thing is remembered that war is made a rotten and lying excuse for the scandalous raise of most food prices how can the people be blamed for looking askance at an administration that permits this hellish food price profiteering? The war has been going on for eighteen months and Washington has done absolutely nothing to check food profiteering. The people of this country have been bilked and gouged for foodstuffs until they are almost desperate. They have supported the government and the war. the boys overseas and the boys over here without a mur

mur. Their patriotism has been spotless and noble. ; And yet in spite of all this they know that the gov- J ernment is permittinu provision boards and food cliques,! wholesalers and middlemen, to rob them, the rcmsrtmT. i M;nd and make untold millions at the expense of the; 'nfortunate consumer. !

Yith reconstruction problems looming large en the horizon. Dictator McAdoo has resigned after fervently scrambling the eggs of the railroad business. It is quite

apparently his design so hopelessly to tangle and confuse'

railroad properties and finances as to make it appear inadvisable for their return to private control. Government control of the railroads is to continue, according to the act authorizing it. for not more than one year and nine months after the proclamation by the president that peace ratifications have been exchanged, and if something had not been done to bring Mr. MrAdoo to time he wouM have made an awful mess of It in tr.-en:y-one months.

VTE are looking- around for the VtctrMa record entitled V DIDN'T Save My Bread To Feed a Heine." ANOTHER good way FOR the bride to tell when the honeymoon is over IS by seeing how much interest HE takes in the coal pile. GREAT BRITAIN ts demanding the kaiser's extradition WELL, don't talk, An something! SO far the clown prince hasn't wirelessed VWASHINGTON to send him A CASE or two of his pet vintages and brands BUT It may come any day. THIS is a free country KVERT man can take his choice between A JINGLING pocket and a RATTLING automobile. JS Mr. XTtlson now going abroad to mfike the "TTORLP safe for the democrats? SIMPLE way of giving thanks jesterday HOPING that somebody Would get tuck with the turk that we ought lie bought IF the deaters hadn't wanted to make enough' money off them TO pay Germany's war dt-bt. BT the way WHAT has become of the old-fsh-leied . HORSEMAN who didn't mind beirg bumped in the knee BT the jug hitched to the horn of his eeddle?

WHEN those three German women BEGGINtJ us to send them food MARCH down the streets of Kerlin carrying the tri-color AND shouting Vive la Prance WE shall send them a tjox of war beans that v jllAD saved UP f"r next February. WE often wonder as we discuss the diorce QUESTION with Her WHETHER the matter of twin beds EVER arose In Solomon's household? ONE of our dear girl friends whom we hae never YET taken by the hand BL'T who has made one sacrifice after another IS irlad the war is over for it WON'T be necessary now to sacrifice her TEDDT bears to the suffering Belgians. AS far as our treatment of the Huns le concerned SOME people'on this side EXPECT us not only to turn the other chek. but TO put out our hand to be stung again AND look as if we liked it. THERE is. according to the neighbor WOMEN whom we look upon as ADMIRABLE authorities, a good deal cf resemblance BETWEEN a husband and a cat THET both are always trying to get out early IN the evening AND get back early in the mnrninn.

THE PRICE OF PAPER.

Commenting upon the admirable manner in which

the responsible newspapers of the country have correctly reported public opinion with reference to peace terms, the New York Herald say: "The responsible newspapers of this country are right because the heart of the American people, from which they speak, is sound." That is true enough, but there will be fewer responsible American newspapers to speak from the heart of the people if the price of paper continues to advance, observes the Indianapolis News. The federal trade commission has done about as much to disturb commercial conditions in this country as any one body now in existence. In the face of a federal court decision in Xew Yoik that a certain price. for paper was high enough to gixe tie manufacturers a fair profit (and it certainly was), the conimisison has again raised the figures and made them l-etroactive to July to a price that will mean $t.25 a hundred pounds when the paper is delivered at the newspaper offices, against the Tormer price of ?2.06. The niaeazines are affected as well as the newspapers. Congress and other powers had already provided for additional burdens such as the bundle tax, the increased postage rates, higher freight charges and various other impositions. In crdeT to save better a cades cf paper the Congressional Record is being pitntec' on news print, but the Official Bulletin Mr. Creep's dailynewspaper uses a grade of book paper instead of newl paper, and a plea is made to extend its already Targe fnm circulation. Throughout the war the publications of this -o!inry have given freely and largely of their space and their work. It has been botL a tuty and a pleasure to ' triva fo',- the successful pro'-cutin of the war. It has been a patriotic privilege to help the Liberty Loans, to nrse The saving of food, the increase in the crops and in live stock and the support of th many war auxiliaries. Where tbe manufacturer was paid for everything he furnished the government, the newspaper and magjzt&o gave of their stock in trade space for printing -and asketl nothing in return except the right to go on eiug useful. Occasionally some official gives the publications perfunctory thanks and then somebody elue raises the price of paper.

HELPFUL DEMOCRATS.

A Big Bertha echo of the democratic tariff law conies to us in the way of an announcement that a consiznmf nt of toys "Made In Germany" end paid for by importers in America before the United States got lntc the war. came to "An Atlantic port" the latter part of October ..t) tons of cargo spacp of them. Think of it! They are to hp on. sale throuahont the United Sjateu as soon as they. bare been passed by the customs authorities, and your little boy. and my little girl, may be teasing us to buy the rretty German toys for them this Christmastide, !f the are too young to have possessed their souls , !n hatred of the Hun. The assignment of this amount of cargo space fo Impoiters of German toys a' this time, when thousands of tons of merchandise are being held upon the plea that every available cubic foot of space is imperatively necessary for war purposes, is passing s'ranae. For two years these toys have been held in Rotterdam warehouses. What sudden change of mind has come over the c.fficials who dole out ocean tonnage spnee to American commercial interests, which induces Them to believe thar German toys are an essential part of our commerce

PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO IT. A correspondent evidently thinks that the people of the United States should have just what the president permits them to have in the shape of news and no more, in his discussion of the government ownership of the cables. Haven't the people of the United States got a right to have what they are paying for? The American people were perfectly content, says the Fort Wayne News, so long as the war endured to acquiesce in the suppresison of all news that posaidly might benefit the enemy, but now that the war i over they are demanding thai the lid be taken off and that nothing be hWden. They feel that since they are paying the bill they have the right to know what is going on, and they are exceedingly resentful of the government's action in feizing the agencies of communication. It is very well to say' that these will not be misused, but the very fact that they are seized over the protests of their owners and that, too, after the occasion for which they are osiensibly taken has passed, is enough to make us more thf.n suspicious. That we should have in presumably free America a condition which was condemned during the sway of autocratic Russia is a matter that is absolutely amazing.
