The latter frequently run tn the conprreiS and to the state legislatures and persist In their demands for special legislation that will act as 'shock. -a'bsorben" to taki away the effects of the bumps. Such a policy is not only economically unsound, but it also retards the natural processes of readjust-' miit. thereby delaying and complicating the solution of our readjustment problems.

When Mrs. Housewife Buys the Sunday Dinner
In trie dayh when prices were lower than they are, now, Mrs. Housewife went over to the corner grocery on Saturday afternoon and bought whatever she could find that would make a nicz Sunday dinner. She bought promiscuously a little of this, a little of that. Before she went to the store she, perhaps, had little idea of just what food war, going to be served at that Sunday dinner the meal that is the biggest one of the week in most families. But today Mrs. Housewife buyj differently. Higher prices and the advancement of the culinary art to a ccience has caused this change in her method of buying. She does her buying as systematically as she does her cooking. She knows pretty well in advance just what is going to grace the table for that Sunday dinner. She plans it well and she krjows just the exact amount of vegetables, flour, eggs and the many, many other necessary things, needed to make that dinner a success and she takes just as much pride in friaking that dinner a success as her husband does in making his business a success After the dinner has been planned che starts her buying systematic buying. She knows tht the wideawake grocers and butchers advertise so she looks to their stores as the place where she can find the best quality at the best price. She knows, too, that The News-Times Market Page which appears in the Friday afternoon and Saturday morning editions, carries the advertisements of these wideawake dealers in foodstuffs and she makes up her lists accordingly. She also finds on that page the market quotations, recipes and other news that interests her making another reason for her to turn to that page. Grocers c.nd butchers are riven an opportunity by The News-Times to make their appeal to the housewife just at the time when she is buying and in the place to which she looka to find the articles she wants for that Sunday dinner.
