TH K PAIWt SITIATION. t Those who are not familiar with lie paver situation do not reulke : what a ; shortage tliln i country Is , fuclng. The mills are not produc. lutf thfilr normal output due to la bor shortage and the country Is. in clined to U80 mora than over be. : (orb. It has brpn said, with a good deal of truth, that tho do pnrlinonts in ; Washington, the dif ferent colleges,' -of .tho country and n lot of the war ' orgunlr.atlons - could anHlst the , conservation of paper II iliey . would doslst from sending out so much bulletin mat. orlul and mlmoographed .matter. Hut be that as it muy the Tact re mains that print paper is now a decided luxury and newspapers all ; nvef. tho counlry are growing , to recognizo tho Tact. Tho government has by ', official order advised nil pnpor mills to mill their customers only a portion of What thoy sold thorn last year. This moans that every newspaper, luifq and small, must cut down ltf, slzo a part- of tho time at I least, wait until thu wur Is finished, Oovernmont needs the mone.y carry on the war. The farmers, tho men and tho Industries engage,;! lu war work or engaged In produc ing things needed , for tho effi ciency both of our soldiers and or o:ir home) people, need the credit to carry on, their enterprises. Merchants should not borrow money to stock up on luxuries o": (things that the pooplo should not boy at this time. No one 'should borrow money 'now to spend need lessly or extravagantly. , Unnocea. amy building, unneedtyj articles, unossontlal enterprises should all await tho ond of the war. Tho 1 Podornl Reserve Board points out that in tho Interest ol successful Government financing it would bo much botte,r for the banks to hold . credit within ronionnble bounds by ' Intelligent co-operation rather than to discourage borrow ing' by charging high interest rates. The people should co-oporatp with tho Governmyit and the banks In tins policy of conserving credit liiitl curtailing borrowing except where tho money directly or indir- octly, helps win the war, helps our soldiers, who nro risking their lives for our country. The Uernardl carnival company, which has a show hero for this week, ran squarely ak'ainst the firm doninnilH of the Army and Navy Auxlliaiy when that organization refused to bo treated as '"Innocent bystanders" last evying. ' i The carnival cauio to La Grando u.idor the auspices of the Auxiliary1 which was to receive $125 for. the j week's -stand and, beside was to' have two shows on the ground, sharing the, proceeds of those 60-60.' Monday night everything was half done and the ladles made no com plaint because their shows were not running. Last night, when Miss Foley appeared on tho show lot with twelve young ladles to tuko charge of tho shows neither of the shows was In working order, iilt'iough It was plainly to be seen that Itif, carnival company's shows jwore nt work and doing a (lnt ibu'dmcs.

It was also agreed that the company should pay tho ladies for the, two Idle nights of tho shows In proportion i.o the business done the remainder r.f the week. llcrnnrdl's carnival was no doubt at one time oulto a fine show of its kind, hut It is now handicapped by loss of men, so that Its shows arv very tamo and of little con sequonce.
