End of a Joy Ride.
New England leather dealers and
shoe manufacturers find their trade
in a worse demoralized condition than
they have experienced in years. The
situation is so serious that a special
meeting of the National Boot and 1
Shoe Manufacturers' Association was
called to consider the problems with a
view to adoption of some remedial re
scheme. sc
Some idea of the difficulties may be
formed by studying business trade reports.
"Factories in New England P1
have no new business. Thousands of sl)
factory hands have been thrown out
of employment." while many are work- ^
ing only part time. Meanwhile, some
manufacturers are wrestling with de- ^
mands for wage increases, many shoe 1
workers have been on sirike and at
the very time plans are being laid by
union leaders in some cities to urge ^
greater pay. the slump in business ca
threatens to throw many more out of w:
work.
Tanners also are idle, no new stick se
is being prepared to meet future de- ro
mands and the trade is unable to mar- W1
ket leather on hand even at severe
price cuts. Recently a ca -load of calf- w'
skins was offered in Boston at 25
cents a pound, another carload was
put on the New York market at 30
cents and later a1; 25 cents, but there be
were no buyers for either. Two it
months ago leathers were reported co
scarce and were biinging as high as
60 and 65 cents.
Joy rides in business, like joy rides ^
awheel, cannot keep on .forever.

Eventually the "gas" runs out, a tire gj.
blows out or there is a smashup. The
public's extravagant "whirl" came to
an abrupt stop atout May 1. Thrifty
shopping shut off the flow of "gas"
lyhich had kept shc-e prices high, and. ?
the period of inflated values began to '
wane, j 11

TO SUE FOR DIVORCE ?
Such Is Life in the Great West," f
Said Chaplin.
Charlie Chaplin has been sued for i jjg
vorce in Los Angeles, Cal., by Mil-} ||
ed Har ris Chapl in. She accuses him I g
! cruelty. "
Rumors of the action had been cur- B
nt in the moving picture circles for P
ime time. When questioned lecent
in regard to his wife's statement Q
at she hail contemplated divorce 1
oceedings, Chaplin said: "Well, p
ich is life in the great West." "
The Chaplins were married in Los S
ngeles, Oct. 23 1918. The bride, B
ildred Harris, was only seventeen at g
,e time, but was already known to j|
novie" audiences. Chaplin, too, is g
mthfui, having been born in Lon- g
>n in 1888. For a year or so after p
e marriage, a romantic glamor was g
ist about the love affair, but last B
inter rumors of disagreements arose.
In April the comedian came out
cond best in a rough and tumble
w in a Los Angeles hotel with his
ife's manager. The couple had one
ild, Charles Spencer Chaplin, Jr.,
bo died last summer, three days
ter birth. "j
