BASEBALL CANDY WINNERS. Last week Old Boreas interferred seriously with the scheduled contest between Salt Lake and Vernon,. the initial setto of the season. But neither Boreas or Jupe Pluve failed to dampen the ardor of those who placed a bid for the Cullen special box chocolates, offered as prizes to the first person guessing the name of the Salt Lake player making the most runs or hits during the week. Webb Greene, who takes it easy at 201 Felt building, won a box by placing confidence in Murray Schick, who made three runs. Miss Dorothy Crowley, of 120 West Fourth box, havSouth, also won a ing called the turn on said M. Schick. No one was lucky enough to name the player making the most hits. ball-tossin- K g one-poun- d one-poun- d I opening July, 1921, recorded something of a momentum of this decrease, that month $178,000,000 worth of If you think you are beaten, im- ports coming in. And then the needle began to. wav- er and to indicate a movement , the other way.- In November we imported $211,000,000 worth, and in December, ' cur- $237,500,000 worth of goods. The ' ' rent year opened with a slight downward trend, but the value of imports for January and February was greater than for the same months last year. Both montns of the current year we imported $217,000,000 worth of goods, while for January of 1921 we Imported $209,000,000, and for February, worth of goods. For the eight months of the fiscal year 1922, ended February, we imported $1,623,000,000 of foreign products, an increase of about 33 per cent over the prewar figures. If measured by volume the increase would be more marked. And it is the volume of goods which is to be considered in estimating the effect of foreign imports in displacing domestic products and lessening the opportunity for American labor. Rarely does a graph remain constant. Its movement at a certain level for a short time is generally followed by a decided trend up or down. The moving finger of our imports writes, and having writ for two months in a horizontal line we may depend upon it that it is due for a flirt in some other direction. With the Underwood tariff law still operating, and the European and Asiatic diive for markets rapidly organizing, that direction is logically upward. In short, we may expect to witness a steady, increase of imports from month to month until the average is reached, and possibly of 1920-2overshot unless the guard is speedily mounted and stationed at the proper That posts our customs houses. guard is made up of protective tariff schedules. They must be enlisted and assigned to duty before the enemy has invaded our industrial lines and put American production to rout. The situation is further reflected in our export trade. During the eight we exported months period 1921-2something less than $2,500,000,000 f worth of goods, or less than the exports for the same period of , but 46 per cent greater than for the 1913-1period. Here again the values do not tell the' real story, since export values have likewise fallen and the disparity in volume of is nothing and 1920-2exports, 1921-2like as great as the value disparity. A great many export commodities show as high as a hundred per cent increase in volume, while the values show a decrease, the two periods considered. Nevertheless, there are decreases in certain lines, particularly in manufactured goods. One of the reasons for this is that manufacturers are marking time. They want to know what congress is going to do about the tariff and they must know before they can take steps to meet the situation. Another reason is that Europe is not buying so much because she is manufacturing more than a year ago. - . i $214,-500,00- - 1-- 3 But soon or late the Is the fellow who THE STATE OF MIND. 0 4 , dont, If youd like to win but you think you : : cant, Its almost a "cinchthat you wont,.-Iyou think youll lose, youre lost, :, ; For out in the world you find Success begins with a fellows will, Its all in the state of mind. .... 1 hinkg PHILOSOPHY - ; 1 you are, If you think that you dare not, you - man . f Full many a race is lost Ere even a step is run, And many a coward fails Eire even his works begun.

That year we imported $5,238,000,000 worth of foreign goods, a volume which spurred the Ways and Means Committee to pass the Fordney tariff bill last July. The following fiscal year, 1921, there was some let up in the volume of imports, but not so great as were indicated by the decrease in total value because there was a decided slump in prices due in part to falling exchange and in part to lower production costs in Euorpe. That year we imported $3,654,000,000 worth of goods, or nearly r average.
