HYDER ADVISES 0N
 RISING LIVING COSTS

Due to great business prosperity throughout the land. brought about largely by tremendous increase in vol ume of products and foods sent to Europe, almost inconceiVable increases are being daily announced from every direction. As fact in many cases the increased prices asked of the con sumers are greater than necessary. In this period of rapiG raising of prices in the cost of living it is the plain duty of every manufacturer and every dealer to cooperate with the people. Prices must not be raised more than absolute ly necessary.
 Often dealers are blamed for the big prices but it usually is the manufac turer or wholesaler, though sometimes the dealer who insists upon unreason- able prices. I believe dealers should be very careful. they should as far as pos sible cooperate in using nationally known standards, generally advertised from such manufacturers that have not advanced prices unnecessarily. Just as one illustration, the former S4 Stetson hat. while still s4 are to be sold after the dealers present stocks are gone be- ginning with fall shipments, for $450 This is reasonable and fair. No one can object.
 IL is the doubling, or trebling and quadrupling of the prices that is cause for just complaint. All dealers should IS far as possible find standards where increases are moderate and fair. This is exactly what we do in our store. The dealer should cooperate with the con- Sumer
 1 assure my costumers at this time that l am studying very closely the general conditions and use every effort in buying as in selling, to deal in and with such goods and manufacturers as have the best interests of the consumer at heart. This is not only fair busi- ness proposition, but 1 deem it duty to do so. That is why I continue to feature wholeheartedly such lines as Hirch- Wickwire Clothing. Stetson Hats, Mallory Hats. Wilson Bros Shirts. haberdashery and other lines so well known at our store.

That 255 Ships Have Been
Sunk in March.

London. March 28.-L0sses Of mer-
chant vessels amounting to more than
420,0OO tons thus far in March have re-
suited from war measures OF the cen
trail powers, Lord Charles Beresford
said in the house Of lords.
In debate on the British blockade,
Lord Beresford said that with longer
days and calmer weather the losses
would increase and that the public
ought to have the facts brought home
to it. The number OF vessels destroyed
thus far this month was given by him
as.255.
Lord Beresford expressed the opin-
lon that captures Of submarines by the
British were not at all equivalent to
the new submarines the Germans were
launching. He believed the Germans
had more men and more food than had
been imagined in England.
The foreign Office, he said, had too
much power over the navy, to the detri-
rnent OF the navy, The losses of allied
and neutral vessels for February. he
said. amounted TO PSI vessels, with an

COMING
SUNDAY
AFTERNOON

Sometime ago it was learned that
an endeavor was being made in musical
circles in this city to arrange for a
New Edison tone-test, the musical and
scientific demonstration that has been
attracting so much attention in the
musical centers of the United States
in recent months. 1t is now announced
that, through the courtesy of Mr. Edi-
son, the music lovers ofthis city will
be given the opportunity to hear one
of these unique tests and that Miss
Helen Clark, the noted contralto, will
be the artist sent here by him to take
the principal part in the demonstrap
ton. Many prominent musicians al
ready have received Invitations to the
affair which will be held in the Palace
Theatre, Sunday afternoon, April 1sk
and to which admission will be by in
vitation only,
Miss Clark is one of the most prom
tnent concert contraltos in the country
and her appearances are included a.
mong the musical features of the sea-
son in the largest musical centers, Her
voice is a magnificent contralto that
ranges into mezzo-soprano and it
has a wonderful clarity and charm.
The beauty of her voice alone would
be sufficient to make her renowned a.
mong vocal artists and the fact that
she combines it with musical intelli-
gence of the highest order entities her
to foremost place among Americas
concert contraltos, In addition to her
other qualifications, she has most
charming personality-a personality
that has been factor in gaining her
the favor that she enjoys. Her ap-
pearance here is, in itself, a notable
event and the fact that she comes as
an emissary of a new art, lends the
recital in which she will appear a rare
distinction.
A most distinguished audience will
greet the charming young singer when
she appears in Grand Rapids accord
ing to the interest that is being mani
tested in the coming affair.
