COOPERATIVE STORE HITS
HIGH-COST LIVING EVIL
Herbert A. Smith Tells Members Of
Home Economies Association
It's Advantages.

The cooperative provision store is an
ideal way to strike at the root Of the
high cost of living evil. This was the
statement made by Herbert A. Smith to
the Home Economies Association Of
Washington, at meeting of that or
ganization yesterday afternoon at the
Public Library.
Nearly 100 members of the organization
attended the meeting. The principal dis
cussion was methods of reducing the liv-
ing expenses of the home.
Mr.. Smith explained that by hiring an
agent who would look after the interests
of his employers and would not have the
incentive of making a profit himself the
housewives could more easily cope with
the high cost of living situation He out
lined the plans on which the civil serv-
ice cooperative store was being operated
and invited the members of the associa-
ton to join.
Mrs. Emma S. Jacobs, director Of the
study Of home economics in the public
schools, was directed to visit the civil
service cooperative store and report on
the plan Of cooperative provision stores
be held the first Tuesday in December.
Plans for memorial exercises for Mrs.
Ellen l.. Richards Of Boston were dis
cussed and a committee Is arranging a
program. The date of the exercises
is to be announced later.
A committee was also appointed to in
vestigate the sanitary conditions Of "for
rent houses and to report their findings

SCHOONER CHARTERED.
The Josephine, Four Master, to Carry
Lumber to PHILADELPHIA.

A charter has been made for the four
masted schooner Josephine, which has
been in port here for the past six weeks,
under which she will load lumber at
Brunswick, Ga, and will take it to Phila-
delphia. AS soon as a cargo can be ar
ranged for her, from the Chesapeake
south, she will leave here for her loading
point This. it is expected, will be within
the next day or two.
The Josephine arrived here In the latter
part OF August with over a half-mllion
feet of pine lumber aboard from Tampa,
Fla. About a month was required to un-
load the vessel, and since then she has
been lying at the 18th street wharf await
ing orders. 1t has been several years
since a vessel the size of the Josephine has
been able to obtain a cargo at this city.
The schooner was formerly one of the
clipper barks in the coffee trade between
Baltimore and Brazil. and she has a num-
Der of speedy trips to her credit, in which
she made steamship time between the
Chesapeake and Rio. Capt. MCGEE, mas
ter of the vessel, is still at his home in
Philadelphia.

OYSTERS COMING IN SLOWLY.
Receipts So Far, However, Have Met
Demand-Vessels Dock.

Though the shortage in the oyster sup
ply at the 18th street wharf market was
relieved early this week by the arrival of
several vessels, the supply now at the
wharf is not overlarge, though there
seems to be plenty to meet the demand,
which is becoming light compared with
that Of Monday. Last Saturday night
there was not an oyster boat at the
wharf Sunday two or three boats ar
rived, and Monday several more came
into port, but so heavy had been the de-
mand that these boats have all sold out
and are on their way back down the
river to load again. Sunday and Monday
until about noon as high as IS cents per
bushel was asked for ordinary stocks, but,
with the coming of the main body of the
oyster fleet. prices dropped to 80 and GO
cents per bushel, and at these figures
oysters are selling today.
This morning five vessels with oysters
aboard were lying at the wharf, and 9TH
ers are expected to arrive here at any
time. On the opening Of the dredging
season, November l, the number of boats
employed in bringing oysters to the mar
ket here will increase considerably.
