 is the limit for the domestic cop
 sumption of sugar, according to an
 nouncement issued yesterday by Her
 bert Hoover thru State Food Admin
 istrator Hamp Williams at Little

 chases. to two pounds in the cities
 and five pounds in the country. Com
 mercial canners will be given sugar
 as needed
 !, Sugar for domestic canning will be determined by each county food ad- ministrator. The purchase of not more than 15 pounds will be permitted at one time.
 Beginning July 1 sugar for the manufacture if less essential pro-
 ducts, such as soft drinks and soda fountains will be materially reduced Whether the millions of candy manu- lecturers and candy kitchens thru out the nation, which consume mil lions of pounds of sugar, will be af- fected was not stated.
 Sugar shortages were reported from Helena and Howard counties. Sugar has been plentiful in Pine
 Bluff, but housewives who wanted large amounts for canning had to sign an affidavite regarding it's use. A recent order by E. R. Wiles, hotel inspector, barred sugar bowls from tables in hotels and restaurants and ! placed the limit at two teaspoonfuls for each meal.

United States at once into period OF

FIRE Chief NEWELL
ISSUES ANNUAL FIRE
WARNING FOR XMAS
Chief Rullii Newell Urges Public To
Re Careful During the Christmas
Holidays TO Prevent Dlsas-
triOus Fires.

Fire Chief Ruff Newell as well as
fire fighter is constantly studying
fire prevention and he is authority
that the old adage that an ounce OF
prevention is worth a pound of cure
is true in dealing with fires as no.
where else.
Each Christmas Chief Newell issues
an earnest appeal to our citizens to
be careful about big fires. Maysville
has been fortunate in escaping fires
at the holiday time and probably be-
cause they take the advise of the head
of our fire department.
1t is a fact that in many cities there
are more fires at the holiday time than
at any other time during the year be-
cause folks in their glee become care
less and because there is so much in
famable material about the homes
The don'ts issued today by Chief
Newell are directed especially to mer-
chants and to those preparing the
churches for Christmas entertain
ments. They follow
Don't use swinging gas brackets.
Don't decorate with straw, leaves or
paper unless fireproofed.
Don't use cotton to initiate snow
anywhere.
Don't use electric wires for clothes
line.
Don't entirely cut off ventilation
from show windows.
Don't put inflammable materia
against electric light socket
Don't place wires or metallic deco
rations where they may short-circui
current.
Don't have open lights for ribbons
fancy paper and light fabrics to bloN
. into.
Don't block aisles or exits with dis
plays.
Don't let cotton goods or pape
. shades rest against electric ligl
bulbs.
s Don't fail, if you have departmer
store to test all fire apparatus an
s have extra clerks participate in fiji
S drill.
: Don't have salesrooms Uttered wit
rubbish from the unpacking of good
r, Don't expose articles of celluloid
o any temperature above summer heat
n Don't hang infiammable materi

Since the good news is attended
with music and sacred scenes would
seem incomplete without it's impress
sive accompaniment. Mr.. and Mrs
Dodd5, Mrs. Foster Barbour, and Mr.
Robert Cochran will sing while the
pictures are shown.
Other music will be number by Mr.
Dodds and carols by the Sunda!

which vibrate into the soul.
The program is in the able hand
bf Mrs. John Barbour and Mis-
Frances Barbour which definitely as
sures it's success.
