Last Time of ‘‘The Meistersingers’’ 
at B. F. Keith’s. 
Next week will mark the fourth 
and positively last week of ‘‘The 
Meistersingers Camping Out’’ at B. 
F. Keith’s Theatre.. This mammoth 
summer attraction has created a gen- 
uine furore, and during the past 
month the wonderful singing of the 
combined Harvard, Schubert and 
Weber Male Quartettes, and the 
beautiful stage. setting built by Mr. 
Keith for their vaudeville debut, 
have been the talk of all New Eng- 
land. ‘‘The Meistersingers’’ will be 
surrounded by a remarkable bill of 
all-star features. Kate Elinmore and 
Sam Williams will make their first 
appearance in their newest and lat- 
est fun travesty, ‘‘The Hunter and 
the Hunter-ess,’’ which gives Miss 
Elinore an opportunity to introduce 
another one of her inimitable char- 
acter creations. Armstrong and Ford 
is another clever team of newcomers, 
two comedians who bring some- 
thing really original. Claude M. 
Roode, the wonderful aerial artist 
and tight wire expert, will return 
after a long absence, and other big 
features will be Alfredo, the Italian 
violinist; the Cycling Brunettes, 
most wonderful of wheelmen; and 
Williams and Segal, two dandy 
dancers.

HIGH COST OF LIVING 
The matter of the high cost of liv- 
ing is one that is engaging the at- 
tention to-day of all classes, and for 
the solution of which problem, many 
plans have been advanced. The 
popular conception as advanced and 
fostered by the politicians, is that 
the fault lies with our present tariff, 
and that free trade or a_ scientific 
revision downward would be a pan- 
acea. It is also said that a great in- 
crease in the produetion of gold, a 
material augumentation to the vis- 
ible supply of this metal which 
serves as a basis for all standards of 
value the world over, having takea 
place during the past few years, that 
the purchasing power of a dollar is 
less; hence the necessity of limiting 
the purchasing power by increasing 
the price of materials, thus main- 
taining the relative values. It is 
true, doubtless, that the tariff does 
ea. eee 
—o 
‘have a certain bearing on the sub- 
ject, inasmuch as it relates to impor- 
tations. In casting about for a elue 
that will assist in detecting the real 
cause for our present conditions, 
would it not be well to examine in- 
to the world-old law of supply and 
demand. As a nation we are no long- - 
er raising sufficient food stuff to com- 
fortably supply our own people; this 
in the face of an annual increase of 
thousands of immigrants to our pop- 
ulation. Of these thousands less 
than ten per cent. ever reach the 
farms and by their labor add to the 
food supply of the country. They 
become consumers instead of produe- 
ers and when to this reality we 
couple the fact that through ignor- 
ance of modern farming methods, 
and a fancied benefit to be desired, 
that yearly vast numbers of our 
farmers are leaving the farms for the 
city, is it any wonder that we are 
fast reaching a very real crisis, a 
breaking point, in our affairs. Each 
year we import vast quantities of 
food stuffs that we should raise at 
home; each year we import greater 
supplies than the year preceding. 
It would appear logical that the only 
way in which present conditions can 
be rectified is by the expedient of 
inducing more people to turn their 
attention to agricultural pursuits, 
and thus by a greater production 
bring ‘‘supply and demand’’ on a 
more even basis.
