TUB DEBENTURE 1'KOPOSAl,
IN THE course of Uie tariff debute in the .senate a few days
ago Senator Howell, one of the advocates of the debenture
feature was explaining why he thought the government
must go further than merely to protect the farmer against
foreign competition with tariff rales and he said :
If we are lo do something for the fanner we must not
merely Kive hint an adeiiuale tariff, where he la ijiIhIhk a t.ur-
1 , jilllH, hut we milht afford him sonieliihiK additional to reuiler
II efleetlve; and lliat is what we have provided the Uoheiilure
for. if anyone has u better iilan, he is al liberty to HiiKKeft It
--we invite him lo surest It hut no one lias KilaKesled u
belter plan In connection with this hill, and yet we are con
fronted will) the statement thai this hill never win Ik; accepted
Willi the debenture in other words, that the farmer can ex-
peel nothing rrom Ihis tariff bill so rar as his products art;
concerned where surpluses ale produced.
That statement at least has the merit of frankness. It
brings the true purpose and advocacy into the open. The un
derlying theory is thus shown to be that of making it pro
fitable for the farmer to grow surpluses to raise more of
wheat and corn and oats than' there is demand for and yet
to be guaranteed a profit on all he raises. It is of course
inevilnblq that such a policy would have the effect of in
creasing surpluses from year to year; of making the surplus
roll up and thicken and swell like a snowball.
Such a policy is so obviously unsound that the wonder
is it can find advocates. It is the same as if a great autor
mobile factory, having a plant capacity which supplied the
mrket to the point of saturation, should double that capacity
and then call upon the government to pay it a bonus on
each car which would enable it to sell its surplus at a heavy
discount. It is the same as if a newspaper should print
each day twice as many copies ns it had demand for and then
ask the government to pay it a bonus on the ethers and let
them be given away.
The law of supply and demand is inexorable and can
not be set aside but the debenture advocates are trying to
upset it. Jf more wheat is being raised than the market can
absorb profitably then the thing to do is to cut down pro
duction of wheat. One of the purposes of the federal farm
board is to organize agriculture in its various branches
for regulation of production and to limit it when necessary.
That is the sound idea. The debenture proposal has a pur
pose exactly contrary.
There is prediction that the tariff bill will never pass
with the debenture proposal. One can hardly imagine
..President Hooer signing a bill containing it.

They are mado bo thin that the oxygen of the lungs passe

This oxygen, without which we could not live, would do little for

part of tho body. Perhaps Nature might have
planned tho human system, so that the tiny divi
sion of the bronchial tubes might have permeated
each of its parts. But a better plan was formu
lated. The food wo take at each meal. would do us
little Rood if there was no way to get it from
the hgeative organs to every portion of the body
In Jm case, too, Nature might have planned a

P. T.
"I IT is now considered the the
X best 'form, in both social and
business letters, to use aa few ab
breviutions as possible. Abbre
viations give an unfinished look to
a letter and are not useful. Af
a matter of fact it usually take
us as long to write the period that
indicates that the word is abbre
viated as it does to write the rest
or (he word. For instance, in your
envelope, your period and commas
alter the abbreviations and lfneF
took you just as long ns writing
out the words would have taken
you. And the same thing with
your heading the Ave., tho name
of the month, and so forth. Iont
you agree?
And it Ib Interesting to notice,
apropros your question, that the
"bigger" btialhesM houses are the
ones who do not allow their tvp
itn to use abbreviations In the
letters or on the envelopes. Just
as on the letterheads of the hig
hest, business houses one rurely
sees abbreviations In the street or
city or Rtnte.
2 "Thanking you in advance, I
am,
Sincerely yours,
And apropros of that, do vou
know that now, too, this partici
pal form is going out of use? The
"ing" Is being discarded for the di
rect statement. And this for
tunately eliminates the awkward
"I am." For instance, Instead of
saying. "Thanking you in ad
vance" one now writes. "Thank
vou for your kind attention." or "I
hope that vou are well." instead of
"hoping that you are well." In
teresting don't you think so?
3 "Yours very truly" Is the ac
cepted complimentary close for a
business letter.
4 Yen, this in the correct sig
nature for a married woman. The
sitrmituro to your letter to me is
perfect.
That is, It is perfect when a
woman chooses not to retain the
surname of her maiden name. The
most usual form is for her to re
tain the rirst and last names of
her maiden nnmo and prefix them
to the last of hnr married name:
Mary Smith Urown (Mrs. Na
than Brown.)
o A widow signs her name ex
actly as she did when her hus
band was living, and she uses the
same for her visiting card. That
is. she signs her name as I have
indicated in answer four, and her
visiting card reads:
Mrs. Iritis Jonathan Brown.
6 Asparagus is eaten with a
fork, not with the fingers.
7 Usually hats are worn at an
afternoon bridge.
Adapt i bili ty to Traveling
DEAR MRS. IJKKCKMAN:
When you are placed at a
table with several other people, as.
for instance, at a small summer
hotel or boarding house or an
ocean liner, should you bow to the
people?
TRAVELER.
YES. It is boorish to sit down
at a table of this kind and not
bow graciously to the people at
the table. It shows, too, a lack oi
savolr faire and adaptihillly in
traveling. Such polite greeting
shows that you are not unfriendly
nml still it does not imply In any
degree whatever, forw arduous. Ii
is simply a courtesy taken for
granted anions well-bred people.
If you are to be for some U "if
sea.e.i with these people, t lie per-1
son who is "accustomed gives tns ,
or her name to I lie other guests:
"I am Mrs. Kennedy," or "M
name is Miss Rogers." T'en the,
"in is broken" and no one need
feel ill at ease. I
