Tie recommnd? the application of the same principle to other commodities, particularly in tile form of thf "mfatles." n-hPiitle": and other "le" vflajs familiar in the war. No doubt it would work that way. and the public may be- exported to bo ymtt va riu. lines of foodstuff if it become fM , s.rj', but that remedy is surely uncalled for fept as a last resort. The "less" day of war-tiine were infant not as n club for profiteer but as a patriotic device for food-Mvir;?. Authorities as:ree that. penorally ppeaklnsr. there is enough food now.

TAKE A VACATION. There has probably never been a time when for the average family vacations seemed so impossible. When the every-day expense are so heavy, the natural tendency is to g:w up anything which c;ui possibly te construed as an unnecessary expenditure of money with the words. "I can't afford it." Actually, for most people, the thins; they cannot afford to do this year is to -rive up their vacations. There is no person of mature years but has s uttered a tremendous strain upon body and mind in the past four years, and in this country especially during the Inst two years. For such strain n this. Nature exacts a heavy toll. Fatigue may not show itself in a r-on.-cious levins; of wearin vs. It may take the form of overexcitement, of extreme activity, or of irritability. The expression is heard on every band that thinus itre near the breaking-point. And so they are, larsielyfrom fatisrue. The wbe man will sa-, "I un tired If I had subjected any piece of machinery to ;e strain of overuse, without proper repair-, to which I have subjected myself, it would have to ko to the shop for an overhauling or it would br-ak down completely." Thereupon he will take a vacation himself, realizim; that the woods or the streams or the seashore or a motor tour will do his body what the shop does for his machinery, and that after such a session he will resume his work with increased efficiency. Tnke a vacation! It will r.o; proe half so costly as nature's bill if ou do not.

leen put throuKh. The fooJ problem particularly has been ignored. The house has not had th excuse of the enat and until recently it ha- bn an "excuse" only, that its time was demanded by the peace treaty. That matter is techn.cally none of the busings of the houe. Its function is to attend to the mors j-trif tly domestic problems of the nation. Certainly it can find plenty to "o alons; that line in the way of reconstructive measures, and particularly in th" w ay of stra itrhtenintr out the tanled question of distributing a bountiful food supply promptly, efficiently and at reasonab'e prices IMd you ever top to think of it. when men talk about "rubber stamp" congresses, that they could scarcely serve the purpose if the application were not well made?

H. C. L. AND CHILDREN. . A statement issued by the Children's burfAU of the department of labr declares that 3,000,000 to 6.'00,000 American children are not petting enough to eat because their parents are not able on their present incomes to buy proper' food in sutneient quantities. In school such children arf- likely to be pronounced "lazy" or "lelicate" or "ailinK" or '"indiffere nt." when the trouble is simply under-nourish-ment. Feed them, and they would be veil behaveel end would make as pcod progress as the others. The number in this class is estimated at 1 to 2" percent of the na'ion's school children. Here is An ani;le rf the cost of livins; to which little attention has been stivon. While thinking of the hardships of the parents, people have given small heed to the growing boys and trirls on whom the cost of food bears most heavily. Their elders can generally get along somehow. The youngsters, without proper food, cannot prow physically or mentally. They suffer particularly heeause. as food price- rise, the thinsrs they need tend to cost most and parents te-nd. naturally enough, to buy the cheaper, less nourishing, less easily digested foods. The children miss good bread, butter, milk, e'gs and meat. Too often th"' eat, as regular fare, coarse bf ad without butter, and tough, salty meat and fish, with scircely any milk and eggs at all. The first essential of a healthy, vigorous nation is well-fed children. Any revision or regulation of the food industry is hound to take that into account.

REFORMATORY HONOR. Kansis has re-cently been the scene of an interesting demonstration of successful "square dealinsf with reformatory inmates, and their "square" response. The labor shortage in the Kansas harvest fields became so acute- that the state board of administration of charitable, penal and other institutions determined to allow boys and young men from the state reformatory to m out nc harvest hands. These youths, all under 2i jears old, were given the privilege of re-aininr; all their earnings in the fields i and of taking other .y.bs as fast as one was finished. The- only request made of them was that they work honestly and faithfullv and return to the reformatory when the harvest season was ended, or when the pressure for extra men was relieved. Three hundred of them went out to harvesting jobs. It was announced not long ago that every one of them had returned quietly and voluntarily to the reformatory. In Kansas, malefactors umler 25 years old are not sent to the reformatory where they are taught farming or various trades and fitted to hold honorable positions among their fellow men. When their term of sentence is. oot thpy are placed in jobs for which the-y are qualifi 1. It is an enlightened system, one great proof of whose value is the -ny in which these boys returned to the institt.;ion after their period of freedom.. Trust, respect and honest labor cure many human il's.

A Krittsh aviation expert prophesies "flivver airplanes" within a few years 'which the poor workineman. can buy for $5f0. Very likely he will fly to work in that flivver, and park it on the factory roof.

There must b. som-Mhinn wrong with grown-ups. Do you hear any of the kids around the neighborhood complaining about the heat?

mi:at piucf.s. (New York World.) Writing to Clarence- usley. acting secretary of agriculture; lniis F. Swift, head of the Chicago packing house, says: "Prices of good and choice beef cattle on foot at Chicago have declined about $4 per hundredweight, or nearly 25 percent, since March 1. while lower grade beef cattle hae declined as much h IS percent"During the same period wholesale dressed beef price's show cm the iverage approximately a correspond ' percentage of dec rease, which varies, however, different cities from about 15 percent to 30 I ercc nt." He- avers further that the profits from by-products are not concealed, and that except for three weeks from January to July Swift iw- Co. have lost money em their dressed beef business ranging from SI .7)0 to $7 per head of cattle purchased.

More Truth Than Poetry - By James J. Montague.

. WORK. No sounding sense or radiant beauty Or inspiration could I see In Mr. Word sworth's ode to duty. For duty sounds like work to mc And work is just continual hustle, A dreary exercise, designed To wear away a fellow's muscle. And mind. I know some men who swear they love it, Whose rapturous phrases fairly glow When they declare the doing of it Is all the joy they ever know. No batting eyelash I've detected When idleness they have decried, But, nothwithstanding, I've suspected They lied. To work, when other men are taking Their idle ease seems rather queer, It looks to me a lot like making A dreadful mess of one's career. I notice Wordsworth didn't do it, Though loafing, he maintained, was WTong, The fellow's life had nothing to it But song! I work myself because I've got to, To pay the rent and butcher bill. My doctor will not tell me not to Though very often I feel ill. I work to stock the household larder, I'd be a lazy, idling oaf, I know, excepting it is harder To loaf! (Copyright. 1919).
