NO RISE IN MILK PRICE
HERE, SAYS DAIRYMAN
c. Henderson Supplee Declares
Consumers Need Not Worry
Over N. Y. Announcement

Consumers IN this city need have nC
apprehension over the announcement tha'
the price of milk would be raised this morn
ing in New York from one and one-half tc
two cents quart, according to c. Hender'
son supplee. head of the Supplee Dairy. Mr.
Supplee said he can see no excuse for rails
ing the price locally, for the present, al
least.
The cause for the rise In New York
is said TO have been a victory of the Dairy
mems League Of that state over the dis
tributors. In order TO avert a threatened
dairymen's strike, the DISTRIBUTORS say,
the price was raised and charged direct to
the consumer. Mr.. Supplee said:
do not think there is any excuse for
raising the price OF milk TO the con-
sumers of Philadelphia at this time. 1
believe It is a fact that raise has been
ordered in New York. Whether IL was
done with the sanction OF the authorities
at Washington ] cannot say The raise
started in Chicago, where the great de-
mand for milk by the condensing firms
for shipment to foreign countries sent
the price up. The effect of this raise
was felt in the East and reflected in New
York city, eliminating i'm the increase
that will be asked today in that city.
1t is possible that the smaller farmers
here may become emboldened by the rise
in New York and demand more for their
milk. If they do do not think II is JUS
tifiable at this time Pasture during the
summer has been generally above the
average. 1t is still good, and as long as
1t continues 50 there need be no eco
nomical reason for an adv lnce. The milk
users are burdened sufficiently as it is.
Later on when the cows are fed inside
the price of their feed may affect the
price of corn drops, as many expect it to
price of corn drops as many expect it to
do, there should be no rise in milk. lt
has been a first t-class year for green

hold the price of milk where It is.

individuals for seditous conspiracy In Vari-
Gus sections.
Amazing revelations as TO the scope of

TRAIELoGUE -
cCN6 AROUND A CURVE

Ever since the motion picture first ap-
peared as a novelty the management of the
Ridge Avenue has been meeting and mas
tering problems connected with the proper
presentation of photoplays in learning
what to do and what not to do-in profit
Ing from its own successes and activities.
The management is young in energy and
freshened viewpoint, In its studied plan Of
keeping a bit ahead as ways improve and
methods change.
There is safety in experience, and the un-
tried plan has its chance for success only
when it follows part of the way at least,
the blazed trails of certainty Experience
makes us certain.
And likewise the Paramount and Art
craft Pictures Corporations have always
prof1ted by their past successes, and not
content to rest upon their past laurels, they
have gathered together for the coming
year, the greatest array of stars. directors
and authors, for the production Of pictures
that will make for screen history.
At the Belmont on Wednesday and Thurs
day will be shown Mary Miles Minter, for
the first time anywhere in her new photo
play, "Her Country's Call" This is a
story of young mountain girl whose sup
posed father is a moonshiner who bears n
hatred for the army and officers of the
law.
At the Leader will be shown the sensa-
tional film, THE Honor System" Probably
no photoplay in years has made such an
appeal as has this realistic story of prison
reform, and 1t thrills and holds your in
terest every minute. 1t will be shown for
the first three days only.
Reserve in acting is the vital and finest
part of the players art, according to Miriam
Cooper, who plays the role OF THE Little
Lady of the Flowers" in William Foxs
gigantic production, 'The Honor System,
at the Leader and other theatres.
The management of the Palace offers
for the first time. the last three days of this
week the timely photodrama "Rasputin, the
Black Monk"
Miriam Cooper, Fannie Ward and Olga
Petrova are the three stars who will en-
tertain the people of the northern section
of the city this week at the Great Northern
In their latest photodrama productions.
Another program of infinite variety will
be presented at the Market Street Theatre
this week. On Monday Belle Bennett and
Roy Stewart will appear in the first show
ing of the Triangle production THE Bond
of Fear
The management of the Imperial which
adelphia where photoplay masterpieces are
shown for the first time in this section OF
the city, has arranged another program fol

Our Stores AreVery Near You
LET Your Head Save Your Heels"

homely old adage, but particularly applicable
at the present time In the old days the heels were
not saved-for the grocer the baker, the eggdealer
and butter-nan were nconveniently scattered; and
there good deal of compulsory trotting about"
THE AMERICAN STORES offer everything
under one roof, and they're very "heel-saving"
there's one, and oftentimes two in your immediate
neighborhood They're "head-saving" too; for
there's always less worry in dealing where High
Quality is assured at Reasonable Price-a COM
bination that counts in practical economy.
