Thin, scrawny eyelashes and eyebrows, Bo poor they could scarcely be seen, have become long, thick and luxuriant: and by my own method.” Referring to pimples, blackheads and superfluous hair. Helen Clare continued: “I banished mine in my own way and by my own method, using nothing but my own simple home treatment, which any other woman can now have the personal benefit of and do as well as Ihave done “if”—“if”—“if”—they will only make tbe effort and have even a little, teeny bit of faith in themselves as well as in me.” Hundreds of women are so delighted with the re sults from Helen Clare’s methods that they write her personally the most enthusiastic letters. Here are extracts from just two: "Thank you for what your Beauty Treatment has done for me. It has cleared my face of blackheads and pimples. My complexion is as smooth as a child’s now.

AUNT JULIA'S LETTER BOX Dear Children: I am just saying good morning, sending .my best love to you all and saying good-bye, to make up for my lecture in my last letter. Lovingly, AUNT JULIA. Dearest Cousins: What is there more sad than those words, “It might have been?” What? Guess I won't tell, eh? Anyway, we young ones would be saved a lot of heartaches and sorrow if we would only heed the advice of older people who know. ->*ter all, 1 suppose 'tis best that we should have the "experiences.” Yes, even though we go beyond tbe safety zone, provided we come back; then we are stronge rtlmn be fore, therefore less likely to take chances again. Sometimes we are discouraged and feel like giving up. But, dear cousins, that is the time to fight harder. No matter how low we have gone, if we make an hon est effort to come back we can even attain greater heights. Oh, I don’t mean to preach, just have serious thoughts in my mind tonight, that's all. Isn't, Aunt Julia just awful good to us? Why, we have the privilege to write her personal letters unlimited.

Grain Feeds for Layers The feeder must use his own judg ment in deciding how much grain to give the hens, as the amount of feed which they will eat varies with dif ferent pens and at different seasons of the year. They will eat more feed in the spring while laying heavily than in the summer and fall when laying fewer eggs, experiments in the poultry division of the United States department of agriculture show. A fair general estimate is to feed about one quart of scratch grains and an equal weight of mash (about one and a half quarts) daily to thir teen hens of the general-purpose breeds, such as Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, or Wyandottes, or to sixteen hens of the smaller or egg breeds. This would be about seven and a half pounds each of scratch grains and of mash daily to 100 Leghorns and about nine and a half pounds of each to 100 general purpose fowls. If hens have free range or large yards containing green feed a gen eral-purpose hen will eat about sev enty-five pounds of feed in a year and a Leghorn will eat about fifty five pounds, in addition to the green stuff consumed. Old hens require a much larger amount of feed of all kinds than do pullets to produce a dozen eggs. It’s only married women who say that all men are alike. Every girl knows at least one man who is supe rior to all others. ? Aunt Julia and cousins, tell me all about yourselves, and write to me soon. Your niece and cousin, HELEN GQL'LD HOWEL. Cedar Bluff, Ala., Route 1, Box 210. Hello, Aunt Julia! Is that you? So glad to see you. Lancaster is my name. Good morning, cousins! How are all of you by the bunch? 1 am all O. K. What are you all doing this cold and windy weather? 1 am busy most all of the time around and in tbe house. We live on a farm and work to make an honest living. There are six of us in the family. I have three brothers, one sister and mother. My father has been dead a little more than twelve years. We have had to work hard, although I do not prefer city life. Country life is lone some sometimes, but I think it is best if we do get lonesome a little. Don’t you country cousins think so? We live on sandy land. No river or large body of water near us, no high hills or mountains anywhere around us. Hello,-Willard Hearington! I would be delighted to hear from you (I for get your postoffiee address, but you are in Georgia). Don’t you cousins know that Aunt Julia is a good woman to adopt a little French orphan ? She surely must be. I will not describe myself fully, but hope to hear from some of you, anyway. I am a girl, seventeen years old, brown eyes, black hair. If 1 see this in print and hear from you cousins I may call again some time. Aunt Julia, I will thank you so sweetly to see this in print in The Journal. Don't folk get my address. Now, cousins, I will gladly receive and answer all letters received. Good-by, Aunt Julia and cousins. CI,ARD LANCASTER. Mauk, Gn., Route 1.

Wealth Possible Even for a Newsie; Boy Makes $6,000, Supports Family A PROFIT of twenty-five cents a day that grew into a sav ings account of $25,000 in eight years—derived from selling newspapers at Five Points! That was the story that the Sun day editor sent me chasing down to Covington for at the crack of dawn—or doom; I couldn’t tell which when the alarm clock went off the other morning'. But the story that I really got. from Harry Bernstein, the retired newsie, who was reported to have purchased a dry goods establish ment at Covington, a residence on Easy street and an automobile, was a much more significant one than that. It opens up a long vista of thought, and should give us hus tling Americans pause to ponder for a moment why these foreigners of, well, let us say. the middle class, can come to America penniless, handicapped by the barrier of lan guage and customs, and sometimes beat us at our own game. Harry Bernstein, at bis post in front of Torn Pitts’, was a familiar figure to many of us—and he knew at least one-half of Atlanta.’s pop ulation by face and disposition if not oy name —but how many of us, I wonder, if we ever thought of him at all, dreamed of the ambi tions back of the alert eyes and the lusty call: "Paper, Extra!” When I asked him how he did it, he smiled in a droll sort of way. and said: “I didn’t —that was just a yoke’—(Somebody. 1 couldn't un derstand just who, and he couldn’t spell it) —"said that he was going to have that put in the paper, but it wasn’t true at all.” Harry Bernstein is thirty-eight years old, small of stature, with dark eyes and sleek black hair, is a native of Russia, and still speaks rather broken English. He and his statement gave one an oddly baf fled sort of feeling. It was a “yoke,”—and yet undeniably he was there, to all intents and purposes part owner and co-partner in one of Covington’s most prosperous looking clothing and ready-to-wear establishments, on its principal business street, facing the green of the city square. “Well,” he said, ‘‘l deedn’t Deen in America but seven year, and tn Atlanta four year, so how could I have save twenty-five t’ousand dol lar? Me, married, with a wife and two children! But I save in that, four year over six t’ousand.” This he said was deposited in the Third National bank. All values are relative, you know. That’s why I contend, and I think you’ll agree that six thousand saved out of four years’ earnings from the sale of newspapers, supporting a wife and two children in these days of the H. C. L„ —is a pretty big performance. "Was this six thousand in four years just actual savings from what you made selling papers, or did you make any of it on invest ments or speculation, or anything of that sort?” “Just savings. Sometimes I lend ’nother boy forty, maybe, hunder dollar. He pay me few dollar, use it six month, but that only once, twice. No make much that way.” “How did you manage to get -by with living expenses, and save any thing?" I questioned. “Get by?” he asked, with a puz zled expression, not sure of the slang. “They told us,” I elucidated, “that you lived on about twenty five cents a day.” He laughed. The “yoke” was getting funnier and funnier. “About $2.50 a day, to eat, and pay rent of $25 a month, at 389 Central ave nue. It cost us ’bout SBO a month PROPER LAUNDRY EQUIPMENT REDUCES WASH-DAY DRUDGERY Washing and ironing are among the hardest of the regular household tasks, and ways of lessening the work are much needed in many homes. The ideal of every house keeper would be a separate room for her laundry, with running water and modern labor-saving devices. These cannot be provided in every home, but even where the arrangement and equipment are necesarily very sim ple it is often possible to make minor changes or to plan the work in such away that it will take less time and strngth. In orden days, tubs and wash benches were brought into the kitchen because water could be heated there most conveniently, and from this seems to have developed the idea that the kitchen is the place for the laun dry. The odors and steam from laun dry work, however, are disagreeable in a kitchen, and the handling of soiled clothing in any room in which food is prepared is highly objection able. If clothes must be washed in the kitchen, the preliminary sorting should be done elsewhere. In some sections, it is considered preferable to have the washing done out of doors or in a room outside of the house. Otherwise the best place for a laundry is usually either in a room next to the kitchen or in a basement room directly below it, be cause this makes it possible to use the same chimney, and, if the house is equipped with running water, the same water pipes for both rooms. A basement laundry generally means too many stairs for the housewife while a room adjoining the kitchen may enable her much more easily to carry on or oversee the work in both rooms at the same time. Worker Worthy of Good Tools Good equipment is as important as right methods in laundry work. Both decrease the labor, shorten the time, and assist in producing better re sults. Equipment need not be ex pensive, but it should be chosen and placed from the point of view of service and for the comfort of tHb worker. The working surface of nearlv all laundry equipment is usually set too low, and the woman operating it is so out of balance that she is soon How Nervous Shock May Produce Diabetes; Dr. Brown Explains Condition of Nerves When stocks go down in New York, diabetes goes up. says Dr. George W. Crile, of Cleveland. And Dr. W. Langdon Brown in his presidential address to the Hunterian society (London) related that he had often found temporary glycosuria—the most notbale symptom of diabetes— in men who had merely watched a football cup-tie without participating in the match. He had noted the same condition in junior naval officers on whom great responsibilities had fallen. Dr. Brown explained these condi tions as due to stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system, which showed itself in an exaggerated met abolism, the first effect of which was a more abundant absorption of sug ars. Thus sugar is found in the se cretion of the kidneys of persons who have been affected by some great ex citement or disappointment. Not only the kidneys, however, but other glands respond by abnormal action under such conditions, for Dr. Uncle Sam Advises Spinach As one Best Little Cure-All WASHINGTON.—-If you want to be full of pep, to gain youth, vim and vitality, to be a human dynamo; if you want to do this and at the same time reduce the effect of H. C. L. upon your pocketbook, eat spinach—just plain garden spinach, that you usually pass up while you reach for the baby French peas and the tender asparagus. So say officials of the United States public health service, who point out that the strangely vitaliz ing power of spinach lies in its high percentage of “vitamines.” Animals deprived of their normal supply of vitamines waste away and to live.” This for a family of four, you understand. "When 1 start out,’’ he said, “I deedn’t have but enough money to buy few Journals. That firs’ day I make 25 cents. But beezness get better and I have make much as S2B in two hours. T’ree year ago I buy right to sell at Five Points —” “Whom did you buy it from?” “Well, you see the newsboys nave a—a —” he groped for the proper word, gesturing expressively with his hands. “A union?” I suggested. “That’s it. A corner belong to a certain boy, and nobody else can sell there/ I pay $lO for Five Points, and I have four boys sell under me” About three hundred papers :th evening is a fair average, says Harry Bernstein, and from six o’clock until twelve on Saturday night more than a thousand copies of the Sunday papers are carried away from Five Points by the downtown crowds. “During war,” he said, “I make mos’ money on extras. People couldn’t buy extras fast enough.” Asked how much the average newsie should clear on one of the downtown corners, he said that S4O to SSO was an easy weekly average. “Selling newspapers is a beezness. just like any other. You have to work, if you make it pay. I have lots friends buy paper off me; Some times they .say they have not mon ey then. I say, 'all right, take pa per on, pay next time.’ Sometime they pay next time. Sometime they forget. That’s all right—profit— less. I want take care my custom ers.” Harry Bernstein, as stated, came from Russia seven years ago, from a place which he spelled, Kirlen, arriving, at Galveston, Tex. At Gal veston, the Jewish relief, assisted him in getting work. “I go work .in pipe shop, Anniston, Ala., but work too hard. I no can stand, so I leave, come Atlanta.” In Atlanta he decided to try the newspaper game. After work he learned to read and write, and im prove his spoken English, at the Educational Alliance on Capitol ave nue. “I no like Russia,” he said posi tively. “A poor man cannot leeve (he meant live) there, on account police. They make heem pay too much.” “Taxes?” I questioned. “No —no —just make him pay let him leeve there.” t’Graft?” “Yes. I theenk you call it that. They come say, ‘You got no beez ness here. You got get out.’ Then you geeve him, maybe, t’ree dollar, and he leeve you alone till he want more money.” Asked how he happened to decide on Covington as a permanent loca tion and business investment, he said: “Well, you see, my wife, her sister husband in beezness here —so I go in partnership with heem. I marry seence I come America. My wife been here eighteen year. She Russian, too, but I not know her until I come America.” “I hate leave Atlanta,” he said. “Mighty nice people there, but nice people here too, and clothing beez ness good beezness. No, I not care go back Russia. America my home. America give everybody chance. American people, though, they not like save. And eef you want be take care of when you not able work, you got save.” Thus Harry Bernstein, both by precept and example, emphasizes what a very wise person said a long time before him: “It isn’t what you’ve earned, When you’re old. Dog Tray, It’s what you’ve saved.” fatigued. Little of the, washing proc ess is done in the bottom of the tub, and the working height is about half way up the side. For the average worker the top rim of the tub should be thirty-six inches from the floor; in all cases the tubs should be placed so that the worker does not stoop from the shoulders but bends at the hips, laundry specialists in the United States department of agriculture say. A portable wasn tub may be easily raised or lowered to the right height. If the top of the washboard' is too high, it may be lowered by cutting *off part of the degs. The ironing table or board should be so low that force from the shoulder can be applied easily; thirty-one inches is a good average height. Where no special room is provided for the laundry and there are no set tubs, a portable bench of the correct height and size is convenient. A wooden tub is difficult to keep in good condition. If kept dry it is likely to shrink and fall apart; if kept m list enough to prevent shrink ing, it is likely to become water soaked and slimy, and may have a disagreeable odor. A portable, gal vanized iron tub is fairly light, dura ble and easy to keep clean, but may corrode. A fiber tub is still lighter, is easily kept clean, and is durable if left dry, but is more expensive than an iron tub. Any portable tub may have a hole bored in it and a plug inserted so that water may be drained from it without lifting the tub. Hot and cold water can be piped to a portable tub as well as to a more expensive stationary one. Wood, which is now little used, has the same qualities for set tubs, as for portable ones. Soapstone and similar materials are cheaper than porcelain, but their dark cplor makes it more difficult to be sure that they are clean Porcelain or enameled iron tubs are heavily glazed and do not rust or absorb grease. Both white and yellow porcelain tubs are on the market; the latter are cheape; but the color may make it hard to tell when the clothes are white. A home laundry is often equipped with two tubs, but when there is no washing machine a thi’-d tub saves much handling of the clothes. Brown notes that epidemics of hyper thyroidism—exaggerated action of the thyroid gland—followed the Kish ineff massacres, the San Francisco earthquake and the air raids on Lon don. It seems that the sympathetic nerves and the glands work in cor relation; the pituitary, thyroid and adrenals, which Increase katabolism or the breaking down of protoplasm into simpler elements for the purpos es of excretion, are stimulated by the sympathetic, while those that are anabolic or increase the construction of protoplasm from the simpler ele ments—the pancreas, for instance— are inhibited or .checked by the sym pathetic. While Dr. Brown disclaims a desire to imply that nervous shock is al ways the cause of diabetes, he claims that this disease is most easily ex plained by disturbance of the sym pathetic nervous system produced by emotional stresses and strains. die. the officials say. If the vita mines in their diet are reduced they may live, but they become nonpro ductive. On the other hand, if guinea pigs, pigeons and other fa vorites of the experimenter are fed spinach three times a day, they perk right up like a flivver on a double ration of gas. Spinach may be green, unimpres sive looking stuff, but as a red blood builder it has every other known material of human subsistance tied to the post, with the exception of yeast, according to the government scientist?. Just start a little spinach bed in your backyard or window box and watch yourself develop into a human dynamo. MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME Will you help a heart-broken girl? I am twenty-one years old and have been going with a man twenty-nine, for some time. He loved be very dearly or said he did and said that we would get married when he got home from war. Well, he came home but when he came to see me, I would not kiss him, though I did kiss him before he left, but was sorry I did it and would not kiss him on his re turn. I love him yet and don’t be lieve I will evei' love another, but he would not come back to me for any thing. Do you think he would if I’d write to him asking him to come, and what should I say if I wrote? Do you think that he loved me and thought me untrue? We were not en gaged, though I think he took it for granted. Tell me what to do, and how to forget him and love another if I must. I am fair complected, light hair and blue eyes. What color would suit me best? I am too old to go to college and enter freshman class. I will thank you a thousand times if you can help me. “JONTELL.” Going to war, and seeing a dif ferent people, and the new knowledge of their ways, has changed many of our soldier boys, some of them were in love with nice sweet American girls, but aftei’ they were turned loose on the other side, they promptly forgot the giei they “left be hind.” which-is nothing to their credit. All I can say is this, I do not believe the young man loves you very deeply because if he did, he would contrive to see you. Love laughs at locksmiths, and a man in love With a woman will try every chance he has to see her. Give him up, try to in terest yourself in something else or some other man. Do this, as it is the means of making you frget. Perhaps your friend will see that you are not wearing your heart on your sleeve for him and he might return. Self-control must be practiced in order that you can adjust yourself to the conditions. I do not think he cares for you the way you wish him. I do not think you are too old to enter the freshman class at college and it will be of the greatest benefit to you. I. am a man 46, and in love with a girl 17. She is a verybeautiful girl, and we were to be married when she reached the age of eighteen. For a while she seemed to care for me. But now she tells me she cares for me only as a friend, and wishes to be released from her promise. There is a boy nineteen whom she says she loves dearly. What must I do? I love her dearly and could give her every comfort and pleasure money can buy. I feel that I cannot live without her. Both her people an£ mine approve of our engagement. 1 have a nephew, a young doctor, age 24, who also loves her. He is in a position to give her every comfort, and he says he will win her re gardless of cost. Advise me what to do, and oblige. J. G. C. Would you want a woman if she did not love you. Possession means nothing but misery to yott both. , If the young lady asked you to release her from her prom ise to you, by all means do so, for you will be most unhappy to wed her knowing she cares nothing for you. She has a right to happiness and a right to choose for herself the one sine would love. I shall relate a case to you I know so well. There was a man about forty years old in love with a. woman in her twenties. She thought she loved him until she met the other man; the other man wanted to marry her, a!nd she told him “yes;” the first love went to ev ery conceivable length to break up the match, even after the woman was square enough to go to him and tell him how she felt and asked him to release her. She was half way engaged to him with the promise of mar riage in one or two years. That was all. He was not in a posi tion to marry her at the time even if she had desired it. Do you think he did right, or acted honorably? Ido not. He tried to bring disgrace and misery on a woman who had done nothing, and who had acted fair to him all the way through. (Selfish ness of man.) I cannot under stand why a man should want to marry a woman who cared nothing for him, or the same with a woman- It would be worse than a life term in prison. As I wrote to you not long ago and you gave me such good advice will write again. My birthday has been since then.; I am now fourteen years old. Do you think I am old enough to go with the boys (just to pass the time)? Would there be any harm in my sister and I correspond ing with some of Aunt Julia’s boy friends? We do not write to the same one. Can you give me any ad vice about something to stop a per son’s nose from bleeding? I am in the seventh grade at school. Do you think that is far enough for me to be at my age? Don’t you think Win throp college is a fine place for me to go to finish my education? How old must a girl be before she can start going with boys? I just like them for a grand time and fun, that is all. I want to wait until I am older to worry about love. Don't you think I am right? How is my handwriting? Your advice will be appreciated. Hoping to see this in print next week, Lovingly yours, SUNBEAM. I think you are old enough now to have a few boy friends. You need not worry about loving any of them, but it is nice for boys and girls to get together and have pleasant par ties, and good times in general. Get a nice lady to chaperon you, . and have picnic parties. I don’t ' see any harm in your writing to Aunt Julia’s boys and girls; it is nice for boys and girls to form such friendships and exchange ideas. Girls and boys who live in the country do not have the things to amuse them like their city sisters and brothers, there fore letters through Aunt Julia’s letter box encourages friendship and promotes a fellow feeling among the young people. For it is human to want friends, espe cially when one is lonely. You had better see a doctor’about the nose-bleed. If you can possibly go to college do so. Girls start to college at all ages from four teen up. Prep schools first, then •on to college later. There is no set age a girl should be before she has boy friends, but to go with older men I do not think proper for a real young girl to do. Boys under nineteen are the right age for girls between the ages of thirteen and seventeen. Older men ate too wise. Try to write more slowly and form your letters more cle'arly; your hand writng shows a tendency toward nervousness. Winthrop college is very nice;-any college is good, but none of them will be of any benefit to you unless you apply yourself. Here comes a girl of fourteen years old for advice. Am I too young to have any boy friends? How might I fix my hair as the puffs over the ears do not become me. Is it any harm for husband and wife to be divorced? How is my handwriting? Would you advise me to go through college and then go to work or would you go to college about two years and then take a business course? Please do not print my address, but please print my letter in next week’s paper so I may see it. Thank you. F. E. P. F. E. P. I do not think you j are too young to have boy friends. There is no harm for girls your age to count boys as her friends, so many mothers are prone to be very strict about their young daughters, not real izing that it is human nature to want to do the things in which we are restricted. It is natural in young people as well as older ones. And if mothers would let' l their young daughters 1 invite a few boys and girls at home cc- , casionally and let them enjoy themselves in a clean, wholesome way, there will be fewer heart ..aches. I have seen this plan worked out often with good re sults. If the puffs over your ears are unbecoming. do not wear th«GU U W Aa-d for' me TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1920. to tell you how to fix your hair, but keep it brushed well and nice and clean, and do not tie bows of ribbon on it as bows are out of date. A barrette is used to confine the hair in a pompa dour. Your handwriting is very good. You can take a two years’ course at college and then take up a business course, and you will be better qualified to make a success in the business world. I haven’t the right to assume to pass judgment on the divorce question; circumstances alter cases. I am a little Florida girl coming to you for advice. Please tell me where I can publish a story. It is my first story and I am thirteen years old. I have a few little poems also. Do you think I will ever make a story writer? I am ready for the sixth grade at school. I am small for iny age. Is my handwriting good enough? I only weigh seventy five pounds. Do I weigh enough for my age? I have gray eyes, brown hair, medium complexion. What col or do you think would suit me. best? Please* answer through The Journal. Lovingly, • MAY /LOWER. You could write to the leading magazines such as the Ladies’ Home Journal, Good Housekeep ing, Woman’s Hoome Companion, or countless other magazines, send in your manuscript, cleai'ly written, words spelled right and punctuated properly, and if the story is worth printing, they will notify you, if not, they will send it back to you. That is the only wav to have a story accepted. Often one has to pay to have a stor v printed. If you have a leaning toward writing do not be discouraged, but keep it up, and later in life you may make qu’te a success of it. Put down your thoughts as they come to you. and do not wait to assemble them at any set time. Then you will get the most beautiful ideas and thoughts. Write always when vou feel the Inspiration. You can wear most any pretty shade, or ccior. I am a girl of fifteen coming to you for advice. „ I have been going with a boy or twenty-two and love him very dear ly He left here about two months ago and I have been corresponding with him very regularly. He says he loves me eand cant live with out me. He has a good job and is of a nice famly. He has to marry him when I finish migh school. Do you think I would be doing right to marry him then.' I have been going with another bov of seventeen and he seems to be fond of me. I don’t care a thing about him and don’t like to keep his company. Please tell me how to get rid of ’ him without hurting his feelings? Is there any harm for a boy to put his arm on the back of a car around you? . Thanking you for You had better finish school, nerhaps you will form a differ ent opinion about marrying then. I think I would leave that to the future a little if I were you. However, it will not hurt to remain sweethearts until that time. Then things will work out for themselves. About the other boy, you could always have an engagement when he wants to make one with you, when he sees that you do not care to have his society he will stop asking you. No there isn t any harm, it only looks badly to other people, passing to see a boy’s arm on the back of the seat in an automobile. Lots of times boys do that without thinking. Dear Madam: I will ask space in your column, if you please, for some advice. I live in south Florida. I was corresponding with a girl up in Georgia; finally she insisted tnat I call to see her. It was quite a ways to go, but I went, and when I got there I thought more of her than ever, and she seemed to think a great deal of me. We kept on until we were engaged, and expected to be married soon. All at once she failed to answer my letters, and I can t hear a word from her. I have writ ten her twice to know what was the trouble, but she won’t answer me. I am sure I loved her dearly at that time, but her treating me like that has gotten me to thinking maybe it is best not to take up my» time with such a girl. She is beautiful, and I would have given my life for her till this happened. What would you do go to see her or just let her go? Please answer this through The Journal. I am, yours truly, SOUTH FLORIDA GUY. Don’t be a quitter. If you were engaged to the young lady, and you had every reason to believe that she cared for you, do not give up so read . ily. I would certainly go to see her if possible. That is the proper thing to do. You must not censure her too readily; find out first and make every effort to do so. Then if you haVe it from the lady’s lips that she wishes to be released from her promise, then the only manly thing will be to do as she, requests. The Country Home BY MRS. W. H. FELTON The Awful Waste of Taxpayers’ Money • Take the extravagance in leather bought by the United States gov ernment for one illustration. Perhaps one may be able to understand why leather shoes and leather goods have gone to famine prices. During the world war the United States pur chased 400,000 horses. They were to be used for cavalry, for artillery and for ambulance and supply service. To equip these horses the govern ment bought harness sets to the number of 2,800,000 more than eight for each horse. Nine hundred and forty-five thousand saddles, more than seven for each horse, thirty shoes for each horse, besides brushes, leather saddlebags, and such like. When the armistice was signed the government had on hand 900 tons of black harness leather, which had cost $1,000,000. After the armistice was signed the government bought 70,000 additional automobiles and trucks. The same ships that brought some of the soldier boys home carried 30,000 of them to Europe, sold them over there for one-fifth of what they cost and took pay in ten-year bonds, worth less than 50 cents on the dol lar. In this count is not included the vast number of them purchased be fore the armisitce. Many thousands were nevei’ uncrated and were con sumed with rust, some on this side and some on the other side of the Atlantic ocean. This is only, one In stance of the criminal waste of leath er and leather products of American politicians. Foreign nations now owe the United States over $9,000,000,000. The inter est on that borrowed money is more than $450,000,000 annually. If they pay only the interest it is going to strain their credit. If this country presses its claim we will also lose their friendship. Eighteen months ago and the armistice was signed. We have not made peace with Germany yet. We have not had a dollar of interest yet. England has spent many millions building airplanes since the war end ed. We spent millions building air planes before the armistice and that money has gone glimmering. We are likely to be good customers for Eng land for steamships, as we are to purchase airplanes. We have loaned to these allies since June 3, 1919, nearly $400,000,000. When the war began Germany had 600 airplanes and twenty dirigibles. France had 1,200 and fifteen dirigi bles. The sum of $1,050,000,000 was ex pended in the United States for air plane production. Toward the close of the war, according to General Per shing, there were only 109 American- ; made planes, resembling French planes, had been received in Europe in time to be used and not a single gun of larger caliber. These official facts I gather from the Congression al Record and they were announced on the floor of congress. SAY “DIAMOND DYES” Don’t streak or ruin your material in a poor dye.
