women have done their share to-

seem that they should always have

Perhaps the old idea about pro-
posing marriage came from the old
feeling formerly more or less pre-
valent among men that their sex
was superior, and hence entitled to
take the initiative in this intimate
relation.

Success in marriage does not de-

but on the willingness of both par-
ties to liv~ in helpful and affection-

little diffident and hesitating, and
need a little prodding. They may
be too modest about their own at-
taimnents and attractions. Per-
haps the thing they have to offer

INVENTORY TIME
This is the time of year when
many corncerns are making inven-
tories, or "taking account of stock"
as the old phrase had it. Business
people have often approached this
job with anxiety, being in doubt
whether they were making money
or losing it. Business is done
usually nowadays on close margins
of profit. Little leaks here and
there have sometimes converted
what seemed a profitable trade into
a losing business. It is important
for business to find out just where
it stands.
Methods of business grow more
scientific and methodical from year
to year. The training for business
is better, oosts and expenses are
figured more carefully. Inventory
time helps to find out whether
methods and systems and policies
are right or could be improved.
Business has done a grand job
in meeti~g the difficult conditions
of wartime. We can hope that all
our concerns will find favorable
figures when their inventory time
comes, and will have been reward-
ed for all the effort they have made
to meet the war situation.

THE COST OF WAR
The federal governmen~ spent the
enormous sum of $88,000,000,000 in
1943. That was more money than
was spent in the first 150 years of
the nation's history. This is a
sharp reminder of the terrific cost

our two years of fighting will re~t

It may be 50 or even 100 years be-
fore the great war debt is com-

It is not possible to fight a
modern war in any cheap way..
Such an enormous amount of wea-
pons, mechanized equipment, and:
innumerable supplies is needed, ~ndl
in such a tearing hurry, that the
expense bill becomes a great ~noun-
tain. It will be far cheaper in~
future for the United States to
prepare adequately for war. and to
join with its allies in preventing
war, than to take any chance of
zunning into a third conflict of
this kind.
