The Philosophy for | “the-most part concerns the gentle art of tipping. | . =n their estimation, aceg-ding to the confession of | * "one of them, those people who stick a-nickel or | dime under their plate “because it’s expected of | them,” are almost negligible. And the ohes who meticulously add 10 per cent of, their Will’are almost as bad. . %e “stiff” who doesn’t tip at all is a total loss or water when he comes the next time. The only human being worth an order of “ham and” is the jovial individual who throws down ® quarter or half dollar because he enjoyed his meal and appreciated his service. Somehow the confessing waitress confuses wish with deed. It does not seem to occur to her that scores of us who slip a dime under the plate, or, perhaps, slip nothing at all, are not stingy and are not devoid of appreciation. t 2 — It does mot occur to her that the men. who, with agesture, can slip half dollars down on the counter are not nearly so brave as the onés who slip less or nothing. She does not seem to recognize at all the plain misery of the non-tippers who own that title sim- ply because the family budget will not permit it. Tipping is a luxury that many people cannot af- ford'when the grocery bill is big and the baby needs shoes. Our Canada Trade 1 e Year by year the importance of our trade with Canada becomes more apparent as we see the de- velopment of dominion markets for both raw and manufactured products. The latest Canadian state- “ert for the twelve months ending Sept. 30, issued by the government at Ottawa, graphically shows to what extent this trade has grown. The report shows, for instance, that during that period Canada bought from the United States goods to the value ef $652,974,113, which is equal to about $65 per d of the population of the dominion. The total value of the imports from the United ptates, the figures show, is an increase of $100,076,- 728 over the previous year, while Canadian pur- chases from the United States were $489,656 more than from the British Isles. Naturally the trade was not all one-sided. We { also bought goods from Canada to the tune of $468,- 893,685, but this still leaves a balance in favor of the United States of $184,080,428. Thus, as we deal with these huge sums involved, ‘we begin to see to what extent we are commercially , interdependent upon one another and we begin to realize that this vast sum really oMy represents the beginning. There is a great'development to come. In ideas, customs, ideals and thoughts the United States and Canada have, perhaps, more in com- mon than any other two nations, for Canada is a nation in itself. It was once a curious mixture of French and English, but as new generations: have been produced, we find that Canada is more and More conforming to our own pattern, with the re- sult that the nations are hecoming very close. " In this development our mutual commercial in- terests have had a great part and they are destined to have a still greater part in the still more notable future. oe “ee z RE - Winter Cruises Ma ie ten years, but more particularly wit! five years of that period winter cruises have beccme tremendously popular with all classes of people. Before the war a trip abroad was the privilege of only the very rich and a trip around the world an honor reserved for great per- sonages. Today, however, all is changed and the steamship companies have designed cruises and ves- sels for them that enable the person of slender purse to enjoy his trip abroad in comfort and with a mini- mum of expense. ‘d ate oT lor) Le oH ame FJ Every year, now, as soon as the winter brings a , let-up in the trans-Atlantic shipping demands, the 8 ships are turned over for cruises to the West In- dies, South America, Africa, the Far East—any- é where in the world that advantageous schedules | aed been arranged for. Cherry blossom time in Japan, the Egyptian social season, the carnival. at é Nice and a thousand other picturesque sights a: forded by this old world are made possible through © chartered vessels that are the last word in com- 4 fort and convenience. é _ In this respect the world war was directly respon- sible. for this result, inasmuch as it taught the gverage man snd weman that there were other por- & tiond of the world of interest besides the United e The war brought us in common contact ‘War cémmercjal expansion in world trade brought new interest in the odd corners of the and will find himself with cold soup and no butter | that | nerease of at least ten dollars an acre in the value land, From reading the newspapers of 100 cities, al-| most that mahy different ideas can be obtained of | what the greatest event of 1926 constituted. | The opinicns of the greatest event of 1926 range all the way from the general prosperity of the coun- try to the improved situation of the American work- man—even to the swimming of the English channel | by women. } In any account of the events of the last year the | annihilation. of time by modern improvements—the | airplane and radio—must take a prominent place. | Aviation has won its way to a sound position in the | minds of the people.

What steam was doing to the horse and Wagon at the dawn of the century, the ships that fly in the night and the motor caravans are doing to the railroads now—except where the rail- | roads have seen the way and coordinated the mctor service with that of the iron horse. Ancther significant advance that the last year! has seen is the telephoto and radio photo. Through | these agencies pictures of events in London, Eng- | land, can be picturized and placed in the hands of American newspaper editors a few hours, instead | cf many days, after the events have occurred. ‘ Of the year’s events, the development of Time's swift modern wings has not been the least. Hunger, the Great Enemy A hungry deer, member of an animal species | | which ordinarily is the mosp timid of all creatures, chased a car loaded with hay and apples for a! stretch of five miles in the woods of New York the | other day. The driver finally threw out to the desperate ani- | mal a handful of hay and some apples and lost the | deer as it stopped to eat. \ Day after day our papers are filled with tales of j hunery and unemployed men breaking in windows and doors of factories as they clamor for work. | Winter outbreaks of crime are traced to unemploy- | ment. | Hunger— | Hunger that makes timid animals brave, and! {turns “respectable citizens” into crooks. i Perhaps when science invents the stomachless |man and animal, things will go more smoothly! | .

(St. Paul Dispatch) _ A group of North Dakota farmers, composed of members of both the Farm Bureau ahd the Farm- ers’ Union, are in support of a proposal to the state legislgture to enact a law to permit the in- spection and bonding”of grain in storage on farms, so that the farmers could use th storage tickets recertified by the state as a basis for’ The pur- pose would be to keep the grain’off the market at the usual seasonable rush period, and provide or- derly marketing. The same proposal has been before one legisla- tufe in that state, but technical difficulties, includ- ing the cost of insurance and proper rodent-proof granaries, held back action. Before North Dakota Proceeds on the proposed measure, investigation should be had of the results of the Iowa “corncrib law,” which was to do for corn in the crib what the Nortlt Dakote farmers would do for grain in the bin. If Iowa corn’ growers have benefited at all by the law, it has not been apparent in reports from that state. The storage of grain, whether in the farmer's bin or in the public warehouse, means an addition to its cost against which there is no provision in the form cf an assurance of a rise in price subsequent to storage. If storage of grain would essure a better price, there would be no need to enact a law to previde for state certification to permit loans on the grain. It is the uncertainty of future price, such as the. drop of 5 cents in one day last week in the price of wheat, that makes the farmer rush his grain to’ market and refuse to in. | vest in granaries, The Farmer and the Seaway (Minneapolis Journal) The Greater North Dakota association, always an up-and-doing organization, has performed a distinct | service in clarifying to the farmers of that state the advantages that will accrue to them through | completion of the St. Lawrence seaway. | To the man on a northwest farm, the St. Law: | rence may seem a long way off. Like the rest of | us, he realizes but vaguely the important bearing that freight rates on grain and flour to Liverpool must necessarily have on the pricy of wheat at North Dakota country elevators, The Greater North Dakota association, however, has worked out a graphic translation of prospective freight rates by the seaway into terms that mean something cn the northwest farms. kota growers would save every year approximately | eight million dollars, now eaten up by transporta- | tion charges. This would take care of the interest | on every farm mortgage in the state, and pay cff the principal in less than twenty years as well.

When he came upon some especially senti- mental word-picture of Cherry, he waded through the drift of papers to show his find to Faith and Bob. “I don’t want to read what the papers say, dear,” Faith told him at last, “I can’t stand it. Now, please don’t be hurt,” she pleaded as his mouth quivered under what he took to be a rebuke. “One member of the family at least ought to keep up with what the papers say, so that we shall know! how public sentiment lies,” she soothed him.

With shades tightly drawn, Bob and Faith sat ‘on the old, broken- springed davenport, hand in hand, trying to talk of other things than the’ tragedy and Cherry’s possible fate, But again and again they came back to it. “If the grand jury does indict, Bob,” Faith asked suddenly, “what will the procedure be? I know so little about such. things.” “Why,” Bob cleared his throat and tried to speak” in a matter-of-fact voice, “then Cherry will be—be held on a charge of—of murder, and they. won't allow bail, The case will be) set for trial, by one of the district judges of the county court—” “Soon?” Faith's hand rose to con- ceal the beating pulse in her throat. “I can’t bear to think of her in jail for months and months, awaiting trial, It isn’t fair, Bob!
