urged to attend his openings for all
enjoy looking at the beautiful flowers
and the fine displays of Xmas gifts.
This year the display was bigger and
better than ever, there being every
kind of cut flowers as we'll as potted
4 plants in evidence as we'll as dainty
fancy work and innumerable pretty
gifts for Christmas. Charlie made a
special effort to make the opening a
successful one and the fact that over
five hundred people registered during
the two days goes to show that it was
appreciated. A pretty button hole bo-
quet of violets was given to each guest
as sovenier. -rr.-'s :,
G. L. Caswell spent Friday and Sat
|urday at Ames in attendance at the
editorial convention which was in SEES
sion there. Mr. Caswell, as field Sc
Lcretary of the Iowa Press Association
was called upon to discuss some of the
Eproblems which are confronting pub
fishers today, the most important Of
which is probably the print paper sit
uation. Print paper that used to be
sold for $3.50 per hundred pounds now
costs from $500 to $500 and even at
this price it is hard for newspapers to
lay in supply that will last for any
length of time. Most publishers have
been forced to raise their advertising
rates in order to keep their nose above
water. There is no likelihood that con-
ditions will improve until after the
war in Europe and it is doubtful even
then if paper will go back to the same
price it was before the war.
