A recent eslinuite places the avei'tige fanner's income at 105 for this year. This includes not only the return for the fanner's effort but interest on the investment and the service of the w ife and children. One dollar and a half a day for the whole family, if Sundays are counted out, which they should not be, for there are duties to be -performed on' the farm on Sunday. What city laborer would ". consider that an ample wage? ' Of course this statement of income is a bit misleading. It really is not so bad as it seems, though it is iiot encour aging. The fai'mer, grows much that goes on the table and therefore' is not saddled with all the oufciay for eat ables that falls on the city dweller. In addition he has a . house, for, which he pays, no rent, and there is a saving there, so that to assume that -$4(55 is all the farmer has for . the year's effort rather exaggerates the situation. Yet, ' with the allowances which may be made for what the farmer supplies from his own acres, SjvK;.") would not go ; far in purchasing many of the things he does not produce ' and which are essential to the comfort and convenience of the family. Since this is an average, for those who make much more there are others who make much less. Is it : astonishing then that there is a drift away from the farm? Who would want to farm for a meager income when a trade which demands no great native ability in the acquirement of skill to pursue it may yield such indefin itely greater returns However, the farmer is never without employment. Strikes-'dti "ffot throw hint into involuntary idleness and . he is assured vf enough 'to- ea(;' and :v place 10' live. Yet," with iill this the industry which is at the base ox existence should not be unprofitable. If it remains iii tliit' Condition ' for ling the fact will be made apparent to citv -dwellers in i an uinpleashljt' way."

The Great American Swettmeat For decades the Passion J'lay at Oljerammerg'au has beenj invested vith' a mystic realism that has-'impressed not ()nly tjipse -vh(r havfe witnbsed- thea-eligiourf spociaele but the many more who have only heard of it. For the American mind especially it has been difficult to uiider . stand the absolute failure to' commercialize the play to its utmost or why the players should lie content with the trifling sum ouained .from tourists as boarding fees and from the sale of picture postcards. Such American minds will be but the further mysti fied to learn that ou hrg to the depreciation of the mark, the Passion Players are enduring hardships and making sacrifices rather than yield to the importunities of pro moters of the movies to' sell them the film rights. In oth er words these Bavarian peasants would rather suffer poverty than sell their ideals. . The peasants may be wrong, in denying the filming of their impressive spectacle. The lesson the movies could tead) might be of incalculable worth to the vCry ideals the Passjon 1 Mayers hold so sacredly;' lint if they do not think so aird.rtf.use.lu be persuaded, their action is all the more sublime .as. illustrative of the adherence to their ideals. - One of the world's difficulties is that it lias so few ideals and the few it has are so lightly held. It is as true of most individuals as it s of states and nations. Appar ently it is not true of the dramatic interpreters of he Scriptures in Oberammergau. i El II!

I isaom Now comes a savant who asserts that, in the case of woman, the long tongue is a feature that accompanies the long head. According to this analyst of woman's proverb ial garrulity, it serves as an outlet I'm- excess mentality. This is rather startling to these who have hitherto hold'; different view of the over-talkative. It is an ancient obser vation that those who are most verhese are frequently This analysis is rather hard, on th,,.. wcet.-thinking sages who, in their passa.ee tnro;:e.h life. h;;ve Uen notvil lor the paucity ol their wmds ami the ru hness of their thoughts. It fixes the lake m low liicnialitv on the men cbicw words, who are coiispu-uoti.sly ;unoii!'. those 'uvsent, .'.nd gives the chattering maypies, nf huni;!n variety", un suspected merit. For. so far as verbosity is concerned, there is no reason fur holding i't;,t man and woman ana lyze differently. I If a man wants to drown out most other noises he should have a lot of money and just 'let it talk.
