Because of advances in the
cost of raw material and labor,
hat prices must be raised or
quality lowered.
The manufacturers of Cor
don hats asked their distributors
whether Gordon hat wearers
would prefer to pay more or get
cheapened hat.
The almost unanimous opin-
ion was that the high quality
Of the Gordon hat must be
maintained.
The manufacturers are of
the same mind.
The price Of the Gordon hat
will be $3.50 after April LIST.
The perfect quality will not be

USING WOOD INSTEAD OF COAL

Oneco, Fla, July 20 "A prac-
teal application of Food Commits
sioner Hoover's advice that wood in
stead of coal be used for domestic
purposes has been made by a local
firm
Reasoner. Brothers, the well-known
nurserymen OF this place, have here
tofore burned anthracite coal IN the
heating plant of their extensive
greenhouses AS they are clearing
ten ares of hammock land, they de-
tcided to have the timber cut So that
it can be used as substitute for the
coal.
1t is estimated that the wood from
the te nacres can be used to save al
least one carload of coal. Others
have been led by the example o.
Reasoner Brothers TO arrange for
full supply of wood. Several citrus
growers are getting wood ready now

CELEBRATION AT so. HAVEN
A FAREWELL TO TROOP ~

South Haven is advertising a big
celebration for July 4th. From the
fact that Troop A, cavalry, an organi-
zation starting at South Haven but
now recruited to full war strength
with Van Buren, county's best young
men, will soon be called into active
service, the day will largely take a
patriotic aspect, and in a measure be
the county's farewell to the troop.
There will be a salute of one hun
dred guns at sunrise, followed by the
program of full day. Troop A will
give all exhibition drill This will be
followed by exhibition drills by home
guard companies from the nearby
towns. Watervliet is coming in full
force, and those who have seen their
home guards in action report that it
will be company hard to beat. There
will be patriotic speeches at Oakland
Park during the afternoon, inter
spersed by patriotic music.
The amusement side of the day has
not been neglected. Besides the water
sports in the forenoon, the patriotic
program will be followed by track
events at Radcliffe Field, and with the
prizes offered it is expected that some
of the best runners of the county will
participate. The ball game between
Paw Paw and Bangor promises to be
one of the most interesting games
played in the county this year. There
is strong rivalry between the two
teams which is shared by the towns
in supporting their own boys. Paw
Paw carried off the honors at the
county field meet, and Bangor is anx-
ious to even up the score. If this is
accomplished, watch for the next
game.
