All this was good policy on the part

GENERAL NEWS GATHERED
ALONG THE RIVER FRONT

The cold weather of the past two or
three days has caused heavy demand for
oysters in the shell. AS the supply at
the wharf market is large and keeps up
with the demand there has been no in
crease in prices.
There are now at the oyster wharf
about twenty vessels with bivalves
aboard. The greater part of this fleet
has arrived here since Sunday. Many oys-
ter runners who trade from the lower Po-
tomac to this port make trip week
from the oyster taking grounds to this
port.
While oysters are reported small and
few In certain parts of Chesapeake bay
and in tributaries of the bay, 1t has been
several years since they were as prolific
as they are this year in the Potomac.

ing early is evident, and the wise buyers
will need no urging. The CHIEF advan-
tages. they say. are, Of course, that the
gift buyer has full and complete stocks
to select from-stocks that grow mate
rally less as Christmas approaches; and
the fact that the selections can be made
leisurely and with much more satisfac-
ton the salespeople are enabled to give
the buyer close and courteous attention
and assistance. which is impossible in the
rush days Immediately preceding Christ
mas. And there's another consideration
that should have much influence with
thoughtful shoppers: Early buying re-
lieves the salespeople OF just that much
work that they would otherwise have to
do in the rush and hustle of the day or
two before Christmas

is another advantage that the early shop

ability to enjoy the holiday season to its
full when one has all the gifts decided
upon and bought and put away or sent
away.
..If the public realized all these advan-
tages as they profess to do the good reso-
lutions made on the frst or each year
never again to wait until the last minute
for Christmas shopping-would be carried
out. and there would be no occasion to
mention the unsatisfactoriness OF snop-
ping In the Christmas jam. as there would
be no such jam. Those who could shop
early would do so, and those who posi-
lively could not until the last minute
would have more room in which to do
their purcha sing. aud the season Of good
will would be one in very fact to all con-
cerned.

Manager Everett of Woodward & Lo-

ing folk OF Washington should be i'm

later in the season. He is of the opinion

have in making early purchases there

season and less of the Christmas rush.

Advantages With the Shopper.

: kann Sons d Co. said:
From the best of all teachers-eXperi-
ence- this firm feels that too much can
not be said in favor of the early shop
ping agitation.
The advantages of such plan are
even more on the side of the shopper
han of the merchant and saies-people.
In the first place the purchaser has
undoubtedly a better range of selection
Many of the most attractive and desir-
able articles have been carefully chosen
rom the cream of both foreign and do
mestic sources. and when they are sold
out the last few days before Christ mas
The merchant is forced Ia disappont the
customer or give a hurried recorder. which
The wholesaler or manufacturer will have
Till as hurriedly.
"On the other hand when the merchant
aas his merchandise bought up or spoken
FOR in time he knows just where he
stands, and has time TO recorder with care
and discrimination.
Many choice articles that are the very
latest novelties are often purchased In
small lots. and when sold out cannot he
reordered at all. so here again the early
buyer scores.
Again. the gift hunter can put more
thought into the gift, consider the tastes
,f the prospective recipient. and be sure
Of giving something that will be more
han usually acceptable.

Early Buying Avoids DELAYS.

sons avoid the rush and delays caused
by inexperienced clerks by doing their
shopping now. \ few days previous to
Christmas the department is SO crowded
that il is almost impossible TO wait OH

of them are compelled TO wait on them
selves. ! think il would be a good thing
If the shoppers would make their pur-
chases now and thus avoid the rush of

Mr. A. d. Prince of the firm of r. Har-

tdge for the shopper at the present time.
The stock is complete and better service
can be secured, and the extra help we
have during the busy season is unexpe-
'lenced and consequently cannot give the
satisfaction of the regular employee There
is also advantage to the buyer. as the
stock is full and there is a more complete
line, whereas If person waits until
few days before Christmas the goods have
been sold of and We cannot purchase
more from the manufacturer
