MONEY RUNS WILD The story comes from Russia of a restaurant pro- prietor buying a set of antique furniture for 4,000,000 rubles, which today amounts to less than $100. The present condition of foreign exchange makes one dizzy. The figures give a fair indication of the topsy-turvy state of the world's business affairs.

This country should talk strongly for disarmament-- but it is well to "keep the powder dry." THE ROOT OF THE EVIL The railroad working organizations which are the root of most of the high cost evils in this country, have voted almost unanimously to strike and put the country "on the bum." However, on second thought, the leaders have found that the country is in no mood to further temporize, and will be solidly behind the government in its efforts to reach an early and fair adjustment of rail- road wages to the end that trade may function and peo- ple again afford to travel and do business. It is not for- gotten that the railroad workers started this thing when they throttled this country back In early war days. We don't know whether to be glad or sorry that the short skirt is to be no longer, that is, that it will be 'longer. ' : UNEMPLOYMENT After all, the unemployment conference has found that unemployment and its alleviation are a community uroblem, and What would apply to one district would not suitable for another;. The methods of accomplishing results must vary with. each locality, and no methods capable of universal adoption can with safety be urged. Therefore specific recommendations to communities are confined to the very urgent one that, following the lead- ership of their mayors with united local committees, they accept this primary obligation to the full, says the In- Mason County's soldier boys? The proposed hall is intended for all service men with an auxiliary lodge room for the American Legion, this latter room to-be at the disposal for meeting purposes of all public I welfare associatoins. I It would be well to remember that [there are in Mason County as there ]are in e/ery community people Who had no use for th% American ol(lier /before the war, thdy had h0 use for him (luring the war and they hae no use for him now. Don't let this class of our citiZen- ship have a chance to sneer at' the patriotism of Mason County .when the final total of the Memorial Fund is footed up! (Signed) A Friend of the Service Men. KEEP YOUR LICENSE PLATE Motorists of this county are warned by the Automobile Club of Western Washington against leaving their " li- cense plates on cars they may. sell. It is contrary to law to make trans- fer of a license unless from one car to another and owned by the party who took out the license. If a car is sold and operates under the old li- cense the original owner of the li- cense will be liable in case of an ac- cident to property, or person. There are many cars, without doubt, oper- ating today in this 'state under'a li- cense registered in the name of a former owner; such should be traced and recovered, for safety fi'st to one's bank account. Judgments have already been given against former owners. SHELTON MARKET REPORT (Revised Oct. 13, 1921.)

The present unemployment situation, it is believed, will not be found to be of serious menace. People are prone to judge by war standards when industry was bid- drag against industry for help. Some proportion of un- employment is voluntary; some is made up of men who will not work oniy at their own terms. There are very few men offering to work for any ,price or 'willing to accept any job at which they can make 1.10 a living. Too many classes are still demanding war time 2.25 benefits and wages. When men become sensible and 3.o0 2.70 willing to work for reasonable wages there will be no 3.45 unemployment. 7.5o imm | • i if OLD GAME STAGES RETURN At the Northwest Fruit Exposition in Seattle will be AB STRA CTS staged a tournament of "Barnyard Golf," that old, old fashioned game of pitching horseshoes that our fathers . found so exciting in other days.
