GETTING BACK TO NORMALCY It would be decidedly unfortunate it the Indus! rial and agricultural interests should place too much dependence in the artificial means it is proposed to adopt to stimulate business, and at the same time neglect tho time-tried plan of reduction of production costs and the other economies which make fcr success. Foreign trade in manufactured and agricultural products is needed, but it would be a grave mistake to neglect the home market while waiting for foreign trade to materialize. Dusiuess at home is likely to be more profitable than trade obtained in ccrnpetltion with other nations. The war finance corporation and the other agencies which have been organized to promote trade with other countries will doubtless be able to accomplish something worth while along this line, but months will pass before results will be realized, and in the meantime serious attention should be given to the home markets. Why should not domestic consumers of manu- j factured articles and agricultural products receive the Bime consideration In the matter of prices that must Le given to other nations in competition with foreign i manufacturers, farmers and stock raisers? The home market can be stimulated by lower prices, as Judge Elbert II. Gary say's, though he doesn't include steel I prices, and when normal conditions in industry and

agriculture are more nearly restored, both will be better able to meet the demands of the newly created foreign markets. The farmers should accept gratefully any assistance which may be given them by legislation at the coming session of congress, but it will be a grave mistake to provide relief which will place extra burdens upon the people to whom the farmers must 'look for patronage.

It is unwise to build up the fortunes of any data of citizens at the expense of others, for there is certaiu to be a reaction overcoming all temporary gains. SOCIAL LIFE IN THE COUNTRY One hears considerable thete days about the lack of social life ii the rural districts and the drabness that accompanies living ou the farm. It is likely that these conditions are exaggerated, or the life in the cities and towns is so magnified in attractiveness that the comparisons creates a feeling of discontent ou the part of country folk. It is true that urban communities offer many inducements to pleasure that are not found In the rural districts, but when it is considered that all life is relativethat its appreciation depends upon comparison with something ehs the country still offers some things that are worth whtl. The grange has done much to maintain in the bocial life of the rural communities, anil families for several miles around are drawn together oa stated occasions for a program that is both instructive and en-

j tertainiug. Thes grange programs do much to ovj ercome the feeling that nothing of a desirable character j is found in the rural districts. j The singing school, the writing school, and the

spelling bees are not as plentiful as they should be, for they would contribute to an appreciation of the things that make life in the country attractive. It is certain that Cupid can carry on his designed work at one of these meetings in the country even more effectively than iu the movie shows of tht. city. It may be too much to urge residents of the rural tiistricta to Increase the attractiveness of their social life by a return to some of the things that meant so much to country people in other days, just now when the lure of the city is so strong; but the time Is coming when the trend will be toward the country, and many of the ideas learned in the cities will be adapted to life in the country. Better roads, rural mail, the telephone and the increasing use of automobiles will have their effect In making life In the country more attractive. Much of the artificially of city life will be revealed, and many persons will be glad to resume the more natural life when nature is found in her most soothing moods.

BETTER DAY FOR MEXICO The backwardness cf Mexico is strikingly illustrated by demonstrations favorable to tiu Russian soviet dcjuslon given by workmen supporting the proposition for a general strike. If the truth about the failure of soviet Ism in Russia and its rejection by the "proletariat" of practically every other European country h.is not penetrated to Mexico, this is to be accounted for by the dense ignorance prevailing south of the Rio Grande, due to lack of means of communication. The prompt action of Huerta in sending troops to Vera Cruz is commendable. But something more than force is necessary to bring industrial and political peace in Mexico. The people must be informed of what actually ih going on in the world, and they must be accorded fair treatment. Justly treated they will be content with seeking by orderly processes to obtain general betterments of conditions to which they are entitled. Indications are that a better day is dawning for the Mexicans. Its coming will be welcomed the world around.
