Birthday Surprise Party

There are times in mems lives that
are happy moments and help cheer
them up along life's pathway. The
happiest of all is when the family
gathers around the hearthstone at
Christmas and Thanksgiving time. But
there are other times that brings joy
to ones heart, one of which is to have
friends gather about and spend a few
hours enjoyment.
Friday last was Rodger Welch's
birthday and to cheer him up and show
their friendship towards him a dozen
or more friends gathered at his home
on South Main street at 500 o'clock in
the evening. Mr. Welch was taking
life easy, reading his evening paper
when the jolly bunch dropped IN on him
unexpectedly. He was completely sur
prised.
Mrs. Welch, knowing of their CON-
ing, had a splendid meal prepared and
all soon sat down at the table filled
with the good things of life. After
partaking of the meal couple of
hours were spent at cards, social chat
and listening to music on the piano
and violin by Thelma and Phyllis
Ingram.
Before leaving for their homes the
company presented Mr.. Welch with
what looked like a German bomb
shell. On removing the cover the shell
was found to contain bunch of cigars
Many happy returns of the day were
offered both Mr.. and Mrs. Welch AND
the friends departed for their re
spective homes.

were given party on Monday evening
this week by their leaders, Miss Brooks

HIGH COST OF LIVING is
NOTHING NEW
Prices Back in 1776 Put Present
Flight of Foodstuffs to Shame

When complaining of the high cost
of living it might be well to think how
Abigail Adams complained of the same
thing, says the Boston Post. Perhaps
after we have read the following prices
which are quoted from her letter to
her husband, the second president of
the United States. we will count our
selves lucky, however, to be living now
instead of in AbigaiPs time. This was

In 1776 sugar rose to 81 per pound
and butter the same. In 1880 butter
sold for $12 pound and tea for $l4.
Such were the prices in revolution
ary times when we were only trying to
carry on a war, and feed ourselves at
the same time.
Now, however, our task is greater
for we must not only fight, and feed
ourselves at the same time, but we
must furnish most of the food for the
Allies, if we are to win this war.
Yet, prices today are considerably
lower than those which Abigail Adams
paid in 1776.
If the women of America hoard food,
however. or if they are wasteful with
it in their kitchens, as sure as the sun
rises in the east, the cost of food shall
soar until we shall repeat revolution
ary prices.
Let US be thankful that as yet this
has not happened and that by eeono-
mizing and.avoiding waste,and by using
wisely, no more and no less than what
we need at a time, we have it in our
power to keep the cost of food nor.
mally low.
