Retailers Meet Tonight.

The regular bi-weekly meeting
and dinner of the Ardmore Business
Mems Credit Association will be
held at the Wilmington hotel at
7 o'clock tonight. The hour has
been changed from $50 to 7, owing
to the change in time, and the fact
that from 6 to 7 o'clock is busy
hour with many grocers. The COM
mittee appointed at the last meeting
to inquire into and report on the
question of abandoning all deliver
les and giving the customers the
benefit OF the money thus saved
will make report. Fifty inquiries
sent out by Paul B. Smith, the sec
retary, had brought only II an
swers up to noon today. Some OF
these were not to the point, while
others said that to cut off deliveries
would save them all the way from
nothing to 10 per cent. Russell
Brown, food administrator for Car.
ter County, was before the meeting
two weeks ago and asked that this
be done, as he stated complaint;
were coming to him every day O
high prices as compared with othe
localities.

holding of an inquest here today
over the death of Robert P. Prayer,
enemy alien, who last Friday morn
ing was hanged by mob, is the first
formal step in an investigation OF

which has been empaneled to sit in

sible for the hanging, prosecution
will be begun Immediately, prob

being told of the first days re-
suits.
The state was literally blanketed
with patriotic demonstration Sat
urday. In many counties all busi-
ness was suspended. More than
seventy speakers OF state promi-
nence were sent out by the state
liberty loan speakers bureau, some
of whom made two and three speech
es each. In addition to this the
bureau had seven army officers and
nationally known men in the state,
part of whom are remaining through
the present week. In many counties

the government.
1t is not as much as the last quota

serve banks, based on receipts
from initial payments vi sub
