Until the present this winter providence has seen

to the clearing off ot the city sidewalks. In all prob-

der of the winter. q

As frequently repeated during several Winters

ast man Jrobabl the ma out of our citizens

ty immediately after a snowfall. As also frequently iepeiitecl there are many citizens who ignore tlTe"b'y-" law and fget away with‘it." Citizens who habitually observe the law, if a few minutes behind time with their shovelling. are invariabl_\," notified and warned by the police; the habitual offenders are simply al- lowed to ofi`en<l.

Now, in view of this long continued condition the

City Council should do either one of two things, treat all citizens alike or repeal the by-law and let the city attend to the sidewalks. The lattercourse would be expensive but would have at least the merit of affor- ding elnployment to such of our citizens as might need it. It might result in an increase in taxation, which inany citi'/.ons would object to and, in any case, such a change in our by-laws should be very carefully considered before venturing upon it.

The present situation is far from satisfactory,

resulting often in iliipassible sections of streets and also in imposing burdens upon law observing citizens which are not borne by those who want to evade the law.

We are. sliortly to ‘liave `“alci`vic"e`lectirm. The'

aspiring councillors might make this an issue in the campaign. Possibly it might be a dangerous one as there are two sides to it and candidates will need all the votes they can get from both sides. Whether an issue in the campaign or not, one thing is clear to all. namely, that the law should either be enforced or re- pealed. ,

Many methods have been and still are being sug-

gested with a view to cutting down the cost of liv- ing but the cost of living is little, if any, atfected.

A Women's Institute in one ot' our sister prov-

inces, we learn from our exchanges, has organized a dressmaking class for the members so that each can make her own dresses and so save this usually heavy ' cost. It will be a grand thing for the women to be able to make their own dresses,‘but what about the dressmakers who will be put out of business by the innovation? Many women both in cities and in rur:-.3 communities earn a living by dress making. If all

-the women_ or the majority of them, or even a~small proportion of them, were to make their own dresses the professional dresst`akers would be obliged to seek a living elsewhere and elsehow. This would mean swelling the ranks of some otherover-supplied call- ing. What is true of dressmaking is equally true of many other callings and little will be done towards lowering the cost of living by putting any one out of business.

When the war began the slogan went forth,

“business as usual,” and business as usual and bigger than usual will bc, in the future as in the past, the salvation of the wo1'ld from the terrors of the high cost of living and other handicaps.

That women should be able to make their own

dresses and do their own millinery would undoubt- edly be a good thing for the women; it would be an education,]a wholesome substitute for idling and for general incompetence which is by no means uncom- mon but as a cure for the high cost of living it is too late to begin it except in the case of young girls to whom such an education would be a benefit. By de- pending upon others to do their dressmaking they have created an army of dressmakers who, if now thrown out of employment would become a burden in another direction. This also is true of many other callings in which men as Well as women are inter- ested.

That men as well as women should be taught to

do many things for themselves which they now un- hesitatingly call upon others to do for them, goes without saving. In very many cases this would be

impractécable but wherever practicable it should be b _

o serve .

The high cost of living, however, does not depend

so much upon what we engage others to do for us as upon the unnecessary and extravagant things we want to do or have done for us. Ladies complain that when a costly dress has been seen at two or three fun ctions its uniqueness is gone and another must be purchased and it is openly admitted that more costly dresses and hats and boots are being bought today at the prevailing exorbitant prices than when they cost a third of what they do today. It is also openly ad-l mitted, that a very large proportion of the high cost of living is because of the frequent changes in fash- ions and the fashionable necessity of discarding art- icles of clothing while _vet new because they had been seen “out” on two or three occasions.

If the Womens’ Institutes would bring about a

reform in the whirligig of changing fashions it would

_ Thrifty people are buying these gramophones, buying them at prices that we can hardly procure them at the manufacturers for now.
