they arrived at the hospital, he said,
the party found that two of the nurs-

there with two men in an automobile.
The witness said his party then START
ed back to town, and in turning a
corner Of a street almost ran into an
other automobile.
They got out of their machine, he
said, and found that the automobile
that they had nearly collided with
contained two of the nurses that they
were looking for and that the nurses
were in the company of Governor
Bilbo and DR.. Valley. The witness
said his party talked with the other
party and came on back to town.

ANNOUNCEMENT PARTY


Invitations were issued last Thurs
day by Mrs. Roy Collins to a number
of their special friends, for an in
formal sewing party on Friday after
noon. At the appointed hour the
guests arrived with dainty bags con-
tanning Red Cross knitting and arti-
cles OF fancy needle work, and soon
the library was a scene of busy work
ers engaged in conversations Of in
terest to the feminine mind. At four
O'Clock Mrs. Collins, assisted by her
mother, Mrs. Cavett, invited their
guests into the dining room, where
the scene changed from a sedate sew
ing party to one of hearts, cupids
and blue birds, all suggesting the
| Valentine season.
In the center of the dining table
was a large vace of pink and white
roses, and around this was arranged
small Valentines attached to long
pink ribbons and each guest was in
vited to choose her Valentine and re-
quested to read the verse written
thereon. Much to the surprise of all
present Miss Katherine Murphy's Val
entine was not a mere greeting of the
day but an announcement, in verse,
of the approaching marriage of Miss
Nancy Cavett to Mr.. John Leonard
Walden, which was to take place Feb
ruary the twenty-frst.
Formality was then cast aside as all
crowded around the beautiful little
bride-to-be to shower good wishes for
their future happiness.
After a salad course was served the
guests were invited up stairs to view
the wedding garments. X X

QUANTITY SALES OF CERTAIN
COMMODITIES

To Whom it May Concern:
Your attention is herewith directed
to information below relative to sale
Of sugar, flour, advertising, and
Wholesale quantities of sugar which
you are expected to strictly comply
with:
Sugar
Sugar should be sold in towns and
cities to consumers in two to five
pound quantities; to farm and rural
customers in five to ten pound guam
titles. The normal profit" allowed
retailers is. construed to near not ex-
ceeding one CEN per pound on sugar.
Flour
Flour in towns and cities should be
sold in eighth to quarter barrel guam
titles; in rural and farm communities
in quarter to half barrel quantities.
Advertising
Any advertising tending to induce
consumers to increase their purchases
of flow or sugar during the present
National crisis are decidedly against
public policy. This information has
already been given you with the sug-
gestion that the press of your state
censor their advertisements. We re-
quest that you please convey this in
formation to the retail grocers.
Wholesale Quantities of Sugar
Wholesale grocers should not sell
sugar in quantities in excess Of 1000
pounds at a time to a retailer. Su-
gar should not be shipped on back or
ders, nor without a positive order
from the buyer. Wholesale grocers
should use every precaution at their
command to prevent duplication of
sales which may give to a retailer the
opportunity to have more sugar than
is necessary for conservative dis
tribution, as outlined in the second
paragraph of this letter.
Important Notice.
Flour should be sold at wholesale
and retail "only" with an equal guam
tity of cereal or cereals. All at nor
NAL profit.
P. M. Harding,
Federal Food Administrator.
Please note carefully the above
rules and regulations governing the
sale of sugar and flour.

a letter that is expected to pave the
way for speedy dismissal of the i'm
parchment proceedings.
The Governor declares that he is
not planning to appoint DR.. Butler to
any other office, and that he will see
to it that a proper accounting is made
of the amounts alleged to be due the
state from DR.. Butler for alleged mis-
appropriation of money and merchan-
disc belonging to the insane hospital.
The House had this morning passed
a resolution asking that Governor
Bilbo send it a statement that DIR.

position of trust, and that the state
would receive full compensation for
property alleged to have been wrong
fully used by DR.. Butler. The Cover
nor's statement covers the two main
