 Tomatoes Cheap
 Hundreds of baskets of tomatoes are arriving in Bridgeport daily and canning stock is especially abundant. Prices are down to canning time rates and auto trucks were distributing to- matoes yesterday to retailers at 40 to soc a basket Tomatoes were selling on the Farmers market mostly at soc a basket but some of the late varieties such as Stone and Matchless sold as high as 65c Q basket or about Sc a quart, this morning.
 Sweet corn is very plentiful and prices have dropped about 25c per hundred ears during the past few days Fancy corn was selling this morning at s2 per 100 ears and small sized ears at $1.5O per 100 ears or 1Sc a dozen.
 Peaches are beginning to be more plentiful and next week promises to be the opening week for the late vari- cities. There was a fair supply of small to medium sized peaches on the market this morning, the larger ones selling at s1 to S125 a basket and No. stock as low as 50 cents a basket Q4 quarts.) The local peach crop was a failure last year, and there are doubt less many preserve closets without this popular fruit. Consequently the demand should be good this year. As peaches are on the market only a short time, housewives should take advantage of any favorable oppor- tunity to buy.
 The Following are wholesale prices.

The girl in her teens is getting more and more of chance in pres ent-day fashions. It was once be- lIeyed that, that was the awkward" age, hence, considering smart clothes for a girl of that age was sheer non- sense. Now the shops keep offering startling proofs that the old theory is not true. If her clothes are wisely chosen the young girl presents a charming picture. Wise mothers feel that since they know her best they can best decide as to her clothes. That is why they choose to make them. This model is particularly adapted to wSo1ens, such as jersey gabardine or serge. The bib-liks front, tying at the back, is quaintly youthful. Tucks are all that it asks Tn the way of trimming, but they suffice to make it distinctive. Jersey fin the ever-stunning navy blue would be a happy choice of French serge. Perhaps you have two remnants that combine well. You might make the plastron or bib of a plain material, also the bottom of the skirt. The dress proper could be of plaid or checked material

ANNUAL FISH 7 Z 8F
\ DINNER WAS A
GREAT SUCCESS
LADIES FINE PLAYING SHADES
GENTS AT BRICKER-HAM-
MAN OUTING PARTY

The annual fish dinner given by the
Bricker- Hamman fishing club was
held at Bricker park, Long lake, last
week, Thursday, and was voted the
best one ever held there since the or
ganizaticn of the club five years ago.
More than seventy-fve were pres
emit and one hundred and fifty blue
gills and about twenty fine black bass
were served at dinner,i no ~
A long table was set i'm the open
which Accommodated the hungry crowd
while at the feast. -. ra.n b
The menu covered besides the fish,
potatoes, salads, cabbage, baked
sweet apples, coffee, lemonade, pies
and cakes galore, watermelons and
ice cream, every body eat all they
wanted and more than necessary, 50
good did everything taste. $
Will Orser fried the fish, Henry
c. Friedly was his efficient assistant
and the plates were stacked high with
the bass and blue gills hot from the
frying pan.
After dinner the men lined up for
a game of ball and there was sport
in that line for an hour or more.
Chas. Madden and Glenn Wortley led
the teams in the contest and Earl
French umpired while Madden and
Frank O'Bryon pitched and Arthur
James was behind the bat, it was
a fast and furious game, Madden's
side losing out by few scores chare-
ing their defeat mainly to Wortley
putting it over on him by family fay-
oritism in his choice of umpire and
players. The ladies also concluded to
take a hand at the bat and Henry
Friedly and Will Orser organized
teams that put the men so far in the
shade by their pitching, batting and
base running, it will take them long
time to get back into the sunshine
again. Doctor Stanton ate so mucn
and SHIPPED so many pieces of pie and
cake from the walters that commit
tee was appointed to give him an
Osteopathic treatment and souse
in the lake which they did in Wig
orous manner.
Madden charged Earl French with
eating more fish than any other two
men in the bunch.
The days outing was a pleasant
one to all who participated.
