Do You Know

For some time past sweets pro-
duced from flowers crystallized have
been on sale, and, though they COM
mand very fancy prices, selling as
high as 81 pound retail, they have
persistently increased in favor. Now
we learn that an attempt is to be
made to put various brands of floral
cigarettes upon the market. The Gig
arettes have proved most agreeable,
and with them the smoker would be
able to blow the breath of roses,
sweetpeas and yiolets about the house
and street.
The Rev. 1. Cyril Walker, rector of
Averham, near Newark, Eng, has
erected in the rectory grounds a mod
Ell theater to accommodate 900 people
The cost was $500. He has de-
signed the theater, painted the seem
cry, made some of the properties,
produced comic opera, acted as
stage manager, and written the words
of a topical duet.
An extraordinary method of selling
liquor on unlicensed premises has
come to light in Oklahoma. A deputy
marshal suspected the owner of Illegal
sale, but failed to find liquor where he
had grounds to suppose 1t was kept. It
was only by accident that one of his as
sistants, in endeayoring to light the gas
burner. touched the hidden valve that
caused the whisky to pour from the
chandelier. The entire supply was
drained out OF little copper tank Sc
creted in the ceiling just over the chan
delier.

bore no insignia Of rank. One English
publication states that with perhaps
one exception the bravest thing ever
done by British soldier was the act
Of a drummer boy.
That drummer boy, II living. is now
a man seventy-two years old, and for
81 years OF that time he has been wear
ing the Victoria Cross, and has had
the right to write v. c. after his name.
This boy in the year 1857. amid show
er of shot and shells, fastened bags
OF gunpowder on the gates OF Delhi.
He carried death in his arms that day
and met It in other forms all along his
way. Others helped him and we're
killed; he lived and wore the cross.
II was another British drummer boy
who, while acting as field bugler for
Lord Napier OF Magdala In the Abys'
sinian war, left the generals side and
dashed arst into the stronghold OF
Theodore the Tyrant."

Now Inferior Grades Cost Double

About the only crude rubber available now
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times,
the best tire makers refuse il. Much Of it had
been rejected But that "off rubber" now sells
for much more than we paid for the best.
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance Of
Goodyears And many tire makers, short Of
supplies, will be forced to use second-grads

Due to Quick Action

Early in August-when war beean-the
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to us
Rubber prices doubled almost over night.
Men could see no woJ to pay for rubber
abroad, and no way to bring it in. We, like
others-in that panic--were forced to higher
prices. But we have since gone back to prices
we charged before the war; and this is how
we did it:
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out. The larger part Of the
worlds rubber supply comes through there.
We cabled them to buy up the pick Of the rub
ber. They bought-before the advance-1 ,500,-
600 pounds Of the finest rubber there.
Nearly all this is now on the way to u.s.
And it means practically all of the extra-grade
rubber obtainabe abroad
Today we have our own men in Colombo,
Singapore and Para. Those are the worlds
chief sources of rubber. So we are pretty we'll
assured of constant supply, and our pick Of
the best that's produced.

Be Careful Now

In Goodyears we pledge you the same grade
tire as always. And that grade won for Good
years the top place in Tiredom-the largest sale
in the world
And, for the time being, our prices are the
same as before the war. We shall try to keep
them there.
We accept no excessive orders, but dealers
will be kept supplied. And we charge them,
until further notice, only ante-belum prices.
That means that Goodyears-the best
tires built-are selling way below other tires.
