Cash and Garry Plan"
Increases Business

Since the cash and carry plan has
been inaugurated, there have been
large number of merchants that
have tried out the plan. Some have
met with a large success and others
have not Jared so well. One of those
who is doing a large business under
this plan is S. S. Etter, at 1915 Derry
street
This store has recently been open
ed and from the first the Cash and
Carry Plan" was used. The large
amount of sales show that the large
majority of people are doing their
part to conserve and save on all they
can in any way. Hence with the de-
creased prices that are possible
through this plan, good many peo-
pie are helping the grocer to larger
business.

Many Grocery Stores Sell
Goods at Cut Prices

There are many grocery stores
that are announcing the sale of
Nationally advertised goods at less
than the advertised prices. This, no
doubt, is due to the customer carry
ing home a good many of their pur-
chases. The grocer is enabled to
make lower retail price when their
overhead expenses are curtailed.
Meyer Marcus, at Seventh and
Maclay streets, announced this morn
ing that he is selling a large number
OF articles at reduced prices. While
these prices are lower than the ad-
Vertised price, yet only a certain
amount can be purchased at one
time. One article mentioned in this
announcement is sugar. which can
only be purchased in not more than
fiVe-pound lots

Big Sales in Substitutes
Announced by Grocers

During the past few weeks. large
number of sales in wheat substitutes
have been recorded in the various
grocery stores. This shows the
average thinker that this country
really feels the effect of the war and
is doing all he can to conserve
the necessary articles that our Boys
in France and our Allies need so
badly.
William Clumpus, the grocer at
21O9 Green street, is doing a large
business in these products. At the
same time the locality in which his
store is located makes it an ideal
stand for daily market. This Mr..
Clumpus is improving by the hand
ling OF seasonable vegetables and
fruits. The full line of groceries and
lunch goods, together with the dailv
market products make this an up-to-
date store. A delivery service and
telephone are maintained for the
benefit of the large number OF
customers.

Washington, April 11.-Modif1ed

tion bill, which a week ago made its
appearance upon the floor of the
Senate and created one of the bit
terest fights of the present session.
was adopted yesterday and sent to
the House for concurrence in the
amendments.
Although the subject of acrimon-
ious discussion up to the very mo-
ment of its passage, it was passed
without a rollcall. There was not
even a quorum in the chamber at
the time.
The phrases and clauses that led
to the charge that the bill constituted
an attempt by the administration to
throttle the press of the country and
make it politically subservient to the
party in power were not in the meas
ure when it passed.
The bill is an amendment to the
espionage act and makes unlawful
and punishable by prison sentence
of twenty years and $4,000 fine the
following:

GrOvery Stores Doing
Share of Conservation

The average grocery stores of
Harrisburg are doing all they can
to conserve the food supply. This is
noticeable in the way they are SELL
ing the different products that must
be conserved. In flour sales it is nee
essary for the customer to purchase
fifty per cent. substitute with their
allotment of flour. In many other
products, the grocer will only sell
a certain amount, thereby doing his
part in preventing boarding.
The Excellent Grocery Store at
the corner of Sixth and Boas streets,
is doing a large retail business in
groceries and fresh vegetables and
fruits. These products are fresh and
wholesome and it is a model store
where everything is handled cleanly
from the time it comes in the store
until is is delivered to the customer.

during the spring, as they were all
winter. The shipments arriving in
the city daily have not been such
that any dealer has been able to
stock up against the summer buying
season, which has already began in
full force.
Most of the dealers report, how
ever, that they have been able to
help the consumers out in the pres
ent cold weather with small allot-
ments of anthracite. A ton or half
ton is the way the consumers have
been demanding it the last three
days. Bushel lots also have leen
disposed OF to a considerable extent.
Labor Problem Is Big
The shortage of labor promises to
make necessary fundamental
changes in the method of coal de-
livery when enough coal arrives TO
stock up the cellars of Harrisburg
consumers. A city dealer who en-
ployes fifteen drivers to make his
normal deliveries, reported this
morning his ability to secure only
three drivers at the most at any one
time.
Dealers are in a dilemma about the
coal which is to fill the cellars of
Harrisburg consumers next winter.
The orders are taken, but the coal
is not here. The best they can DO
is repeat the promise of the opera
tors and state fuel administration
that it will be on hand in quantities
proportionate to what was received
last year, to fill the summers or
ders.
Many Orders on Hand
In addition to this promise, local
dealers have the warning of the op-
NAW-e - 20 /, al Il
to delivery specifications, as the op-
orators themselves can give no as
surance of definite shipments here.
At the Central Coal Bureau Of
flee, established April l, there are
1000 or more of the orders filled
by consumers for next winters coal.
These orders were merely taken by
the dealers, tabulated and then sent
to the central office to be filled.
When the coal comes, they will be
filled 1t was originally announced
that summer orders will be filled at
the rate of two-thirds of the con-
sumer's order delivered to him on
the first delivery, and the rest when
two-thirds of the coal ordered on
the other orders has been delivered.
Unless the coal comes in more abun-
dantly, they may have to be filled
proportionately at the rate of much
smaller allotments, so that every one
receives a fair share.
Mr.. Hickok, county fuel adminis-
TRAITOR. said some time ago that he
has the promise of the national fuel
administration that Harrisburg will
receive fare share of coal during
the five months devoted to stocking
up for the winter.

Early Vegetables Coming
in From the South

The early spring vegetables of the
season are coming in now, and are
reasonable in price. The shipping
conditions of the past few weeks
have let up to a certain extent and
all perishable goods are now being
delivered on scheduled time.
The e. M. Shuler Co., at 1862
Market street handle a full line of
all seasonable vegetables and fruits.
They receive these goods in daily
shipments, thereby assuring the
public of strictly fresh goods. The
southern vegetable while a little
higher than the average home grown
is still a cheap and wholesome ad-
ditlon to any meal. Eat lots of perish
able goods and save all that you can
on wheat and meats.

Ablaze i'm 1914, Sentiment Changes
In 1914, he said, Ireland was near
ly ablaze with enthusiasm on the
side of the allies, but the sentiment
of tho Irish people had since chang

of the British government and the
word of British ministers.
BY the governments present action

1t would require armies in Ireland to
recruit battalions while, il the gov

there would be a much harder nut
to crack-Ireland.
