Auckland Geddes in the statement which he made on arriving in this coun- try, sald what might be espected of a representative of Great Britain, It didn't avoid the burning question regarding Ireland and it didn’t appear to be oblivi- ous to the meed of better conditions. ‘With the arrangements made for his meeting the secretary of state, it can hardly be urged at this time that the president’s illness is such as to prevent him being received and given a chance to present his credentials, in view of the fact that the president is pow able to hold cabinet meetings. CUTTING THE COST. And now with the movement for the ring of old clothes overalls and cal- ico underway throughout the country an effort is being made ‘to revive the lunch box, with the idea of course that what is carried in it will cost much less to the one consuming it and certainly be as nourishing as is now obtained by the habit which has developed of buying the lunch. Whether everyone who cannot get home for lunch will take to this idea as cagerly as g great number of the people seem to be falling in with the cost cut- ting idea in other directions depends up- on how serious minded they are in the purpose at stake. It should and must be thoroughly understood by all those Who are jumping into overalls that there have been just as many opportunities and just as good reasons for avoiding large and what may be regarded as unjustified expenditures in the past as there are now. Also there are many other ways in which the eXercise of the same kind of cconomy can be turned to the advantage of the consumer if there is the disposi- tion to do It.
