EIGHT Too Hot to Take a Single Unnecessary Step. PHONE YOUR WANT ADS to The Herald THE FIGHT FOR FOOD IN THIS COUNTRY (New York American.l Of the facts there can he no doubt. As every housewife knows, prices have gone up abnormally within the past few days. As every economist knows. Ihtrc Is no Justification whatever for jruch an advance. Warehouses are strained with food stuffs which, owing to our lack of ships, cannot be sent to Europe. Beef Mci.'fi cannot reach foreign markets. Veltlx r can provision Jobbers or the •Bfort.rs of flour. The only thing for the investigators to get Is specific evidence of a con spiracy, or of Individual schemes to make an opportunity of the necessity of the people. This should he easy. The investiga tion should go Into low places as well as high. If the butcher, the baker, the grocer, the delicatessen man Is arbitrarily raising prices on the pretext that war mokes it necessary, these gentlemen *h"Uid he put under restraint. There Is abundant opportunity 1n America for honest business. There should he no opportunity for extor tion. It is to be hoped that within a few days the gentlemen who have been seeking to enrich themselves by ad vancing foodstuffs to starvation prlco.t Will cither be frightened Into hon esty, or on their way to the nearest c r. mitral court. A Crime Against the People of This Country. (New York World.) The president's statement that the Increase In most food prices Is unwar ranted ts very conservative. It is ah >- ge't.er artificial and arbitrary. The. precision with which it was brought about from coast to coast proves that combination exists and that It Is 11- rected by master minds. Was the c losgsl gouge In meets, flour ant.' sugar, by which HU Business prof iled on paper hv hundreds of millions, the signal which caused every retailer by ms. mwM£A , THE CONCEITED DONKEY. A donkey mid a colt were alone In the stable one day The donkey thought himself very handeotne and began to latiKh at the long-legged lit* tie colt. "O, dear.” aald the donkey, “I wish you could aee your»elf, you are ao fun ny with your long legs and little thin body." “1 did not know that I wan no queer looking.” eald the colt "I know I tun tall and no doubt 1 shall grow taller, but my mother in tall and she doea not look queer Why do you not laugh ul her?" “Your mother hn» outgrown her awkward Hit*,' replied the donkey, "but you are n very homely lmie crea ture." The colt »«f alien! for a while, but he was gating Intently at the donkey. •'Now that 1 have taken a good look THE WAYS OF THRIFT (Copyrighted, 1»14, American Society tor Thrift.) HAPPINESS IS THRIFT. In the laundry, kitchen, dining-room and aewing-room thrift la appearing In a truer and more attractive aspect than ever before. Intelligent man agement and avlentific principles are found to have a place In the machin ery of housekeeping The gulf be tween chemistry. phVslrs and mechan ics has been crossed by domestic sci ence and found most practical to the Up-to-date woman. According to the Mr# I. A John oon. president of a "Homemakers' Supply Club" In Chicago, the wife and neither who la thrifty enough to keep up and take advantage of the pro gress of the times will no longer be a tired. worn-out, narrow-minded woman at the age of forty with "never-done housework." A thorough study of the needs of the housekeep er have made It possible for the club to show women how to clean all the ■tlver In the house In a few minutes' time Instead of spending half a day on It; how to Iron with an electric Iron and woven-wire, ventilated iron ing board while seated, thereby saving time, lat-or and money; how to save herself and other members of the family the struggle of removing or ad justing the lied springs which have al ways been made too heavy and unman ageable for a woman to handle; what kind of olive oil to buy which con tains the nutrition snd flsvor with out the fraud of substitutes, how to take the tops off ths preserve )sra without the usual strain of wrlat and tamper, how to pack and ship the of food In the country to mark up ev erything elee In his possession? In the case of meats, flour and su gar, Federal authority may easily be invoked, whereas In the rases of lo cal dealers state authority should be adequate, Under the commerce clause of the constitution the nation is able to meet this Issue so far as It relates to interstate transactions. Under the police power of the states, cities an t towns, as Mayor Mitchel w r ell says, may challenge It with equal courage. These are sovereign powers. They rule the W'orld, In republics as well as In monarchies. Those who corner food In the na tions of Europe that are at war are treated as public enemies. In Ger many, Austria and Russia, In extrema cases, government has selxed all sup plies, Just as T. this country a thous and times government has appropri ated lands by right of eminent do main. Even In England, government 1s fixing the price o{ food. A nation at war that can he starved at home by speculators Is defeated before It lights. Our gamblers and extortioners are a'temptlhg to apply to a nation at peace the oppressions which nations In conflict will not endure. The crime which they commit here Is worse than that which has appeared abroad, for In this country It Is wholly specula tive, whereas In Europe it Is to a large extent economic. This country Is glutted with food. Europe is not. If, necessary to promote the welfare of our people, we tnay and should forbll ' the exports upqn the promise of which the Impending robbery Is based. I'olltcal economy is a dismal science 1 which was designed to Intensify arid • excuse such conditions as now pre- , vail. 80 - called natural laws, such as I that of supply and demand, have al- j ways been urged upon those who lan- | gulsh and rile hk a sufficient excuse for their wretchedness. The first law at you,” he said at last, "I are that you are not ho handsome, that you cun afford to laugh or make fun of me.” The donkey stood up very straight, lifted hla head and pricked up his earn. "I have heard many times what a fine looking animal I am/’ he said, "and no douht I look particularly handsome to you, who are ho plain and awkward.” "If you had not hurt my feellngH by making fun of me." said the colt, ”1 never would have thought of being so rude, but ns you have exprenHed your self ho freely, 1 will tell you that any one who said you were a fine-looking fellow "hh making fun of you. Your head 1h badly shaped, your ears are too l»*ng, they look like n windmill, and your tall looks like piece of old rope fringed out at the end. Your mouth la so large that when you laugh one fears you will split your head in half, and altogether you ceTtalnly are not a beauty.” Hut the donkey was too conceited to believe that. “You are certainly mis taken." he said. 1 have always been « ailed handsome, and as for being stupid that cannot be true, for 1 am always consulted upon all questions by the other animals.” “That all may be true,” said the colt, "for the other animals are kind and considerate of your feelings, and had you been the same you might never have heard how ridiculous you really are. for 1 had never thought about your looks until you made fun of me.” The donkey walked away with rather a crestfallen air. Whll# he did not really believe that he looked as the colt had said, it wor ried him to know that any one thought he was not handsome.

Before we starve, Europe must starve Starvation In Europe means peace. Starvation In the United States means war! What it the Government Going to Do About It? It has pleased the good I-ord to pre sent us this year with a record-break ing crop. No later than two weeks I ago the housewife rejoiced in the hope of soon seeing her daily loaf of bread increase In size. But things appear j today to be quite different, as the trusts, the speculators, the sharks and ] \umpires of all denominations have j decided instead to fill their pockets 1 at the expense of the whole nation; they call this business. Besides this, thanks to the war and the kaiser of Germany, we are told that soon hundreds of thousands of workers wMI find themselves out of employment. Is not this a fine pros pect for the future? What Is the government going to do? What Is the press going to do? What are the people going to do? Fold their arms 1 and leave the solution of this little problem to the care of the housewife j and her league? Elour Is reported as already 20 per cent higher. Meat has been advance! rapidly. An almost prohibitive price for coal Is threatened. Necessaries or every kind are showing excessive rises | In price. Meanwhile the congress Is being j urged to pass legislation that will pro i vide dealers and speculators an easy, | safe means of export transportation i hy enabling the mto procure the reg istration of foreign vessels under the 1 American flag | At home we are to be bled unscru j pulously even for home-grown sup- I piles thnt are abundant, and as a ! reason for the extortion we are to be ' told that the foreign demand raise) prices. At the best, our working people, or small-salaried people, and indeed practically all our folk whose income Is adequate only for the most eco nomical living, will suffer from the war. In this critical period we ought not to permit speculation and private gain to control our prices and our supply of necessaries. No exportation of necessaries should be tolerated while our home markets can consume them. We shall be forced to puy ''war prices” for many things; let us not he forced to pay them when | they are merely speculative and ex ] lortionate. "AH of our laws against trusts, un fair business practices, monopolies, I conspiracies and combinations are mo 1 much blank paper If in a time like I this, when American granaries are bursting and there 1s no immediate j prospect of un outlet elsewhere, food can bo cornered ns it Is today.” Now, in my opinion, President Wil son should appoint a commission of. j sa;>, two or three experts to handle ■ this Important question at once, or j the department of Justice should act at once. These great food trusts should not be allowed to send out of this country on contract to the vari ous European countries at war these necessities of life and cause the prices to soar beyond the reach of the Amer ican people—that is, the middle and poorer classes. If those trusts, who care nothing for the people of this country who I have made them multl-mllllonalres, are not stopped at the beginning of the threatened tremendous war In Eu rope there Is no telling the extent of extortion they will endeavor to per petrate upon their home cuatomera. SsLEEPYTIBE ©TALES HOW DR. BUMBLE BEE PLAYED A JOKE. (By Virginia Vale). Once upon a time the little red squirrel jerew so fat that hts friend. Dr. Bumble-bee told him he would get Into trouble If he didn't stop eating so much and lake more exercise. The squirrel was lazy and didn't want to run or hunt for food when he could get lt with out doing so. One day after he had eaten so many nuts he could hardly move Dr. Huirble-bce said: "1 think If 1 gave you a good sting It would make you thinner and 1 will do It right now, for I want to help you.” Now the squirrel knew that Dr. Bumble-bee's sting hurt and he dtd not want to feel lt so he started to run and the hee after him. On they ran past the tree that mss his home and out Into the meadow but ns fast as he ran he couldn't get rid of the bee Mhlch Mas always Just behind him. At last he couldn't run any more and he stopped under a tree .too tired and out of breath to move and every minute ex pecting s sharp sting In his side. Now, of course. Dr. Bumble-bee didn't mean to hurt hla friend, but thought that a fine way of getting him to run so he said: "1 guess 1 won't sting you this morning for you have run a long May and you m 111 now have to walk back to your home " “Oh, l think I will rest before 1 go back." said the squirrel, but Dr. Bumble-bee said: "No, you must go right home and I will go with you." You see he was afraid the squirrel would rest on the May. The next day he made the squir rel run a long way, and the next and the next until the squirrel be gan to enjoy his morning run. Then Dr Bumble-bee told him the Joke he had played on him and asked if he would keep It up. The squirrel promised and :f you go to the forest where he lives you will see him every morning running ths meadow back and forth. THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA. GA.
