PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 12.-The cam

begun yesterday by the Housekeepers'
League was renewed to-day with In
creased vgor. Every Gambler that could
be secured was kept busy all night In
speeding eggs TO supply tho demand
from all sections OF the city. Additional
stations were opened and forty-three
were In operation at daybreak. Auto
trucks furnished by public spirited
owners TO aid the women In their cam
paign against the high cost OF living
were kept busy carrying the esgs to the
sales stations.
The various settlement houses where
social workers are taking an active part
In the campaign were open for business
In time to sell the 2i-cent eggs.
The retailers who are blamed by tho
women for the high prices that have
been prevailing are showing signs Of
captivating. Two large chains OF
stores to-day offered their customers
eggs at the price set by the House
keepers League. which Is from O to
20 cents less than they have been
charging.

fight to stay" declared Mrs. w. Is.

attempt to put us out of BUSINESS by
slashing prices we will have accom-
plished the very thing for which We
are working. Our source of supply Ia
adequate to meet the demand. what
ever 1t may be.
"while It Is too early to announce
our plans along other lines. It can be

means to confre our campaign to one
against the high price OF eggs. We

On New Years day w. l.. dock,
Holt was seventy years old, and bis
friends and relatives decided to help
him celebrate the SEVENTEEN anniver.
sary of his birth. So on that morn
ing large crowd gathered and at
dinner time a fine repast was spread
to which the merry crowd did
ample justice. The dinner consist
ed of turkey and everything else
good to eat.
Mr.. Holt has lived in Randolph
county all his life. He was born in
this county in lS42, not more than
a mile and half from where he
now lives. He was born six years
after the State was admitted to the
Union. He was a soldier in the
Confederate army and was in Prices
command. The writer has known
Uncle Dock all of our life, he being
one of the first men we can remem-
Der. He was for many years
magistrate in this township, until
he was relieved at his own request.
HIS good wife passed the great be-
yond several years ago and he is
now living with his son, J. r. Holt.
Mr.. Holt has for number of
years, been afflicted and at times it
was thought that he could not live
long, but we are glad to report to
his many friends that he has over
come the disease and is now in
splendid health. We hope that he
will live to spend many more happy
birthdays, and that we will get to
hel lp eat the dinner. A FRIEND.
