"With serious mien and a stiff upper lip the masses of the German people are courageously facing an extremely bad situation, said the Bev, Father H. J.

Business conditions in both Holland and Germany are exceedingly-ba- d, -sanj Father Wientjes, tiecause the 'dollar is too high, the Dutch guilder is too -higb and the mark is far too low. The people in Holland are willing to work, but many of them have nothing to do they are like so many, in America, enforcedly idle, Germanv the situation is entirely different. There everybody is busy. 'ound no idle'clnss, but the wages are woefully, frightfully low. The average wage of the average workman during the weeks that 1 made personal observation, was the barest kind of a pittance, about fifty marks a day. The value of the mark during this timeN f a ranged from a little under f cent. rent to a little more than The food and clothing thtthaJboreT-mus- t have sells at such figures that the wage of fifty marks a day does not enable the laborer to purchase the neces' saries of life. visited one of the parochial schoola in the citv of Creleld, a place about the sire of Salt Lake. Here 1 found 350 children of the lower school rades, and a physician of standing who ad just completed an examination of the pupils reported that more than WO per cent of them were greatly underfed. r There is, I am reliably informed, a condition in most of the cities of Germany. Hut every one ato to toil is working and waiting to see what will happen. I know of but one strike in Germany this autumn that was a trike of waiters in Berlin. This was not over a question of hours or wages, but was a strike to get back the tipping system, which had been abolished. "Taken as a whole, the people of Germany have neither desire for nor hope of a return to the m.litary system. There are, of course, a few who still live in memories of the old regime, but the great majority of the people have done with a kaiser for nil time and have no thought for a restoration of And every mirror many! would be twice that For that gift for your home, the hall or. room that has no mirrorBuy one at half price. -- Large and small, oval to 29x41-ineSizes 6xl8-incor oblong, they are all half price.

"The value of the Americau dollrr and of the Dutch guilder makes it easv for the tourist or for the Hollander who has just a little American or Dutch money to secure, by reason of the low price of the mark, a pocket full of Germany money when he makes the conversion. But to the German people the mark is still- the mark, as thev visualized it in the davs before the war. Measured bv our standard, prices seem ridiculously low. A cheap meal can be bought for twelveor fifteen marks; but the laborer who works for fifty marks per day cannot well spend a third or a fourth of his days wage for a single meal. If the mark gains in value and Germany has an opportunity to employ her energy in activity that will bring the laborers a little more than a bare existence she will probably be able to pay the indemnities." - Week of Classical Music Repriced 200 Pairs of Blankets Tomorrow less than regular wholesale Bought at will be sold the same way, , The lot prices, and consists of Baby Blankets, and part-woBed and Camp Blankets, Indian Blankets. one-thir- d At all-wo- ol Regular prices, $1.00 to $20.00 - on FOR WOMEN Hosiery always occupies a prominent place in a gill 's Christinas gifts, aud our Hosiery Nection is in readiness to serve early shoppers. - Fancy Ho-- e of lace, in black anil white, , 11.50 priced clocks, hemstitched or embroidered, Fancy priced at $1.50 ONLY THIS SALE HAS BETTER-FASHIO- PREPARED. , CONSIDER WHO - THE BEEN - DELIGHTFUL AFTERNOON AND DINNER TERPRETATIONS SELECTED FROM OUR OWN MODELS STOCK OF BETTER DRESSES IN MODE PORTRAY THE SKILLFULLY WHICH VERSIONS.
