AND'THE COST dF LIVINGr "Father of Five" writes to the Age:— "Your article in Saturday's issue on trusts and combines! opens up a wide question. It is quite true that (the coat of living lias "'been enormously increased in reoemfc years. I should like to point out, however, that people are themselves a good deal to blame for the state of things which exists. The middle and working classes are living much above their means. They are given up to sport, and pleasure, and dress, and fantasltic education, and do not attempt to j make provision for the rainy day.' It was not like this when I was 'ft, btfy. We are Jiving above ourselves now-a-days, and we are bound to- com© to grief." \ /=—======
