Hwant High Prices That Are Aa ; Incentive to Live. It develop! that the coat of living ' ha kept pace with the coat of liv- big, and even outdistanced It. An in ' fluiry in New York City shows that ' even a "modest" funeral may coat nearly ( 1 000. What an elubornte '' fumral costs It not revealed. Burial ' expensea In general are 10 to 100 per cent higte than before tha war, The ' some vttuation would probably be ', found in almoat any city. ' Undertakers, while Deferring to the . Increased coat of nearly everything that anters Into a funeral, lay empha i sis on two factors; iirat, the "casket tiuat," which they aay charges x " oihltnnt prices fnr Its product, and aecond, the "vanity" of the contruct m ing parties. ' The exactions of the "tt-UHt" re S ferrod to are suid to be facilitated by " an actual shortage of oaakets, due to luck of mnterlnls and the abnormal demand caused by influenta deutha.

Anwrican Itfovie Films Vfl Oo to Germany. Hmme Clermiins are highly indignant over the discovery that a contract has been 'mode with an American film company calling for the impor tation Into Gcrmnny of $5,0(10,0110 worth of Yankee filmR a year. The Indignation, however, seemr to lemanate mostly from the Orman film interests. They insist tbat C!ei many ought to be exporting films in stead of importing them. The Ger man preaa fs aaid to show little en thusiasm for their point of view. One Cievmnn paper tells the blunt truth about the mntter, explaining that "German films havo become unsalable anywhere outside of Germany, be cause of their unspeukable filthinesii." Another paper corroborates this, say ing that "under the pretense of en lightening the public, the German film producers cater to the most de based human instunrts.' All this la true enough, as anyone familiar with Germany knows. It is the same trait that hua long beun familiar in other forms of Germnn art. Anyone who has ever looked over a copy of such representative Gorman publications ns "Kimplicis simus,'' "Jugend," and "Meggendor- fer Blaetter" will recognize the family likeness of these smutty movies which even a hardened German press can not approve.
