" Uxviisb' me, lint do you want to let
V-nr house!" Loudon Opinion,
A LADY writes to the Capital Journal asserting that
local society turns the cold shoulder to new-comers,
that there is a lack of cordiality among women and that
instead of welcoming new residents, .their presence is
rather resented.
"Salem society," she asserts, "consists of various ex
clusive cliques, which have little to do with each other and
nothing to -do with the stranger. Their attitude is polite
ly repellant and makes Salem unattractive to womenac
cutomed to entertain and to being entertained."
Without knowing much about the subject, we venture
the assertion that Salem society does not differ from that
of other small American towns. - It has the stratification
characteristic of New England civilizationfirst families,
descendants of the original villagers, Brahmins whom un
earned increment has put on easy street; second and
third families who arrived on the scene considerably later
and also prospered; later arrivals still in a period of pro
bation, as it were; various church club and lodsre circles
and a considerable element of "climbers" seeking to jimmy
their way into the ranks of the elect.
It doesn't make much difference where vou eo. there
are the same snobbish lines of cleavage. It seems to be
a product of the New England social system. A few of
the larger cities and their intellectual and artistic groups
and where "wealth .accumulates and men decay" there are
also vulgarian plutocrats, and parlor socialists.
Social ambitions are the most empty and vapid of
aspirations and are a never-ending source of amusement,
to the cynic. Really they affect but an infinitismal part
of the population, as most people are too busy making a
living and raising a family to worry over pink' teas and
soirees.
The world beats a path to the door of those worth
while and if it doesn't come to your door, there is some
thing the matter with you for the man or woman worth
while never lacks friends and companionsand Salem is
no -.-xception to the universal rule. -

then- statements, engaged in working for the dear people
almost at a loss such a tiny profit.
Allied with the meat barons' advertisement is the
campaign under way to convince the people that the high
price of shoes is the wearers' fault and has nothing to do
with profiteering. We are told that the diminishing sup-

yet until a few months ago hides were a drug on the mar
ketthe lowest price on record with shoes the highest.
. The Federal Trade Commission has completed its re
port on the shoe and leather industry. It shows profit
eering at every turn. Tanners get 35 per cent profit, in
stead of 12 1-2 per cent as formerly. The shoe manufac
turer gets 22 per cent profit instead of 12 1-2 ner cent as
formerly, and the jobbers and retailers divide 50 per cent
profit. -. .j,'. . r.;4ijf
"To the extent that these profits are too high," to that
extent consumers pay too much," says the commission.

(Quickly .1 made my rcsolro. It would

today.
'Won't you moot me at the librnrv
this afternoon, Sura?" asked Cousin
Sum, "Cut your class, just once!"
"Why, Samuel," said Aunt Kinilv.
quito as if COusin Sam were still a little
boy, "how can you put such ideas into
Sara's head? Of course, sho would not
out," as yon say, her poetry elass."
Though J. shook my head at Cousin
Sum, I thanked hiin in mv heart. For
that is just what 1 should do.
So at four o'clock i left the house
as usual. But not to !o to my class, 1
had dressed wtih unusual care. My
brown Bhoes wore polished nicely. Mv
little veil was put on snugly. "I'm not
so bad," I Ihoiurht. rcmemberim? the ro-

I passed Marv Dennett house quick

on one end of the broad with two laugh

1 waved my hand. But I walked on
hurriedly. I wa.s out for exercise of
doiirse. My second, campaign I planned,
ns I walked, 1 should not fail again.
I had tried to bo intellectual hist time.
But I had not known enough. I had

By this time, I had come to the bart,,
deserted plains. The winds whistled
over the treesloss waste. But I liked
it. I liked the sense of freedom it gave
me ot tioiug lar from the world. Tne
rond was bud and rutty. But I kept on.
At lust when the sun was sinking, I
turned back. The wind was behind me
now. And 1 hoped Professor Coo was
betoie me.
Ho was! lT.r off, I discerned a tall
limping figure. Ho was coming toward
mo. As he reached me, he doffed his
hut wtih a surprised look.
"Way out hero nlone, Miss l.ancf"
and he was walking by -my side, lit
spoke of one of tho boys who had just
eulisted. "I wish I could co." he said.
"but not witli this foot."
That gave me my cue. I asked him

He talked ou and on. How interest-
ing, how well-informed, the mail is. For
I saw him ns a man, now, not as a pro
t'essor. I wished that the walk hnd been
longer.
As he reached Aunt Emily's house,
he stood a moment, hat in hand, saying
good-bye. 11,, wt.s gone.
Then 1 saw him join Mary Dennett, a
