Miss Lizzie 9 Heape. a former teacher in the school gave a reading that was enjoyed by d all, and Mrs. D. P. Frierson read a 1 very interesting article on cooperation between teacher and parent.

Never in modern history has the world jj; een in such need of dry goods and never be- i1J ore have we had such a surplus on hand. ''' VTiolesale rvrices todav however are rea- X onable and in no case excessive. At pres- ? i nt cost of labor and capital numerous pro- ~ i ]; nets are selling at less than the cost of pro- ?J uction. Wheat has fallen from $3.00 a ;,j ] f; * 5: ushel to $1.65; corn from $2.00 to 65c, beef on the hoof has declin- >\ d from 22c a pound to less than 10c, while hides that sold for 45c / j pound is now selling at 17c; cotton which sold at 43c a pound j"; ist July now sells at about 12c. Wool has fallen from 70c to 30c i! er pound; while sugar, rice and many other products are at about t\ re-war levels. 5; .Considering the present cost of production, these prices are ex- 5; raordinaryly low. What is the matter? There is a reason for verytliing. The reason for the situation described above is not be- < j ause eight million men for six years spent their labor on destruc- ?; ion, instead of construction, putting us behind 250 billion dollars 2 l improvements and enterprises. This economic loss of the war jg hould cause a greater demand for our products rather than cause $? ("agnation in industry and commerce. ' J; The reason for present conditions is (he lack of confidence, due 51 ) the wars degenerating effect and to the evil effect of the reck- / j sss period of inflation through which we have just passed. Busi- ; ess integrity, the foundation* of commerce, has been forgotten, ?! hile faith, industry and thrift, the basis of the enterprise, have < j een lost sight of. |; The greatest damage was not material, but. spiritual. We are go- $ j 1 g too fast. Speaking in automobile terms, we are still trying to 11! speed". We have traveled a stretch of good road for a period of 11 j ears, but like every other road there are bad places ahead, and if j11 re do not change gears and get in low, some of our cars are going jjl 3 be torn up. Put on your brakes, get out of the ruts and find a j, j etter crossing. Rekindle that pre-war spirit of thrift. Spend jij our monev, but do it wisely. Make your dollars have more sense.
