"Indeed we must!" cried all the Katy-Dids together. "We're glad to see you, Miss Dotty." Dotty made a low bow and went around shaking each of the Katy- very polite little girl, and always tried to do things just right. When she had finished, Miss Katy- Did --who seemed to be at the head of the affair--placed Dotty on a leat where she could see and hear every- thing that went on, then she address- ed her companions: "Well, we've had an easy time of it so far, friends," she squeaked. "Now it's time to get down to busi- ness. We have the great task before us of letting folks know that the frosts will soon be here, so clear your throats and let every.gne sing. Not too'loudly! Remember, it's days off, and we must Spare ourselves! Everybody ready?" = She raised her left feeler and some- thing like a soft thrill went over the crowd of Katy-Dids. At first the song was so soft Dotty could hardly catch the words, but after a while they became plainer and plainer as the Katy-Dids rocked back and forth on the green leaves, sing- ing merrily: Katy-did, Katy-didn't! has she lost? A few days more and we'll have a frost, Now is the time to make up your Oh, what By the bright sunshine, don't be misled. Katy-did, Katy-didn't! Oh, chil- dren so dear! The cold dreary winter, soon will be here. When the chorus had finished Dotty clapped her hands in glee, "What a pretty way to tel] your meadow friends' about old Winter," she laughed. "I've often heard it said that you Katy-Dids began sing- ing before the frosts came, but T just thought it was a saying of Grand- ma's." . "Well, someway a message brought by song is softened a wee bit," said Miss Katy-Did, the leader. "We Xaty-dids made up our minds a lang time ago if we could help prepare our meadow friends for Jack Frost's coming we'd do so. Well, we hit upon this plan--singing it from the luvs fuss followed it up year after trees! And it proved such a success to overthrow this very doughty op- ponent by many and various schemes, with very little if any success. Where | officialdom has failed, the great body known as the general public has met with more success. By refusing to buy commodities at, as it seemed to them, an exorbitant price for post- war days they have caused such a slump in business generally as to force down prices to some extent. This is true of the automotive in- dustry as of the industries, and its real effect is seen in the recent re- duction of prices by the Ford Com- | pany, the Franklin Company, the Studebaker Company, Willys Over- land, etc. It would seem in looking at these reductions that it is about time that they were made; although one must not forget on the other hand that many other concerns, of equal importance to the general good of the industry, will suffer severe loss, if they, with more highly bought material, have to bring' their prices down to the common standard. It is often noticed that when the pendulum swings in such almost uni- versal movement as that about which we are speaking, it is as likely to swing too far in the direction of right as it was on the opposite side, which we now consider to be the wrong one. It is safe to say that extremes are always undesirable and one word should be held before the minds of the public at this time. That word is "reason." There must be a steady view in all these movements if cru- | cial periods are to be passed. The public must not expect the impossible. The purpose in mentioning this, is that while there have been large numbers of commodities that have risen in price beyona all reason, there has been other equally necessary things in the business world, the price of which has not increased to any ap- preciable extent. The pneumatic tire is a fair illustration of this. Its price is practically unchanged since 1914. For example in September, 1914, a Goodyear 30 x 3% all-weather tread casing and heavy tourist tube cost the consumer $30.45. In September, | 1920, the same size cost $31.05. The percentage of increase in 1920 over 1914 ig therefore only 1.9 per cent. To this may be added another factor which has a relation to price, and that is the 'value that is now gotten from tires. It is common knowledge that tires produce almost twice the mileage of that obtainable in the days preceding the war. The pneumatic tire of course is only an example, and it is more than st Walk ye in it, when ye turn to the | Slons, etc, ete., have done thelr best right hand, and when ye turn to the | left.--1Isa. xxx. 21. * * - Man is in loss except he lives aright, And holds his fellow to be firm and brave, Faithful and patient.

With a bashful smile nn his honest simple face, a countrymane walked into a secondhand clothing store and said: "You remember that coat.I bought here yesterday for $52" "Yes, but I never take back any- thing when once sold," said the deal- er quickly. "Oh, that's all right!" replied the customer. "I only wanted to tell you that I found a $20 note sewn up in the lining. Perhaps the owner may call for it." 'Of course, he will!" exclaimed the dealer, capturing the note. "You are an honest man; here is $5 for you as a reward. That will be all right." And by the time the dealer found out that the note was a counterfeit the simple--looking lad from the country had vanished. Riches and Happiness.

The two principal figures in this colossal enterprise are Lord Burnham and Lord Desborough. The great project elaborated comprises the construction of a railway from Hudson Bay to the Seven Islands, to enter Quebec by the Montmoreney alley, which will shorten the route from Chicoutimi to Quebec by one hundred miles; the establishment of pulp and paper mills at Seven Islands and at all places where there are im- portant water powers along the line of this new railway; and the creation f great steel works at Chicoutimi and at Quebec, Even a weak woman can put up a strong hluff.
