INCIDENTS OF THE STORM

The snow out on the desert is re-
ported to have been ten inches deep
when the real storm broke loose here.
Jordan & Brown sent their freight
trucks out as usual, their big Klieber
among the others, and they all had to
turn around and come back. The
snow would keep pushing ahead and
packing hard until the vehicles could
no longer force their way.
Several passenger cars were strand
ed west Of Iron Springs.
Engineer Geter x. Gardner left
here Wednesday evening in r. S.
Gardner's car. Besides getting into
the engine through the radiator and
giving trouble, the snow packed ahead
of the machine until it was no longer
able to make Roadway and had to be
abandoned. The occupants of the car
had to walk several miles back to
Iron Springs in order to reach a tele-
phone and summon help, which was
responded to by Mr.. Rice Of the Kopp
Garage.

Says Mrs. Whitney.

"It's the actual truth, I've gained
fourteen pounds since began taking
Tanlac three weeks ago and it il
simply wonderful the way this medi-
cine has completely restored me to
health in so short a time, was the
statement made to Tanlac repre-
sentative the other day by Mrs. Lucy
Whitney who lives at 945 East 4sth
ST., Los Angeles, Cal.
81 was in miserable run down con-
dition, and what little strength I had
was dwindling away. My appetite
left me and the little ate didn't
agree with me. My nerves were AL
upset, any little thing out Of the or
binary that happened irritated me
and at night l would have awful
nightmares. For days and weeks at
a time have gone on half the sleep
ought to have had. My housework
was drudge. couldn't half do il
and several times I thought Of Civ
ing up entirely. I tried so many dif-
ferent medicines and treatments with
out relief, and all the time my health
was getting worse. Finally I kept
running down and getting so weak
that actually weighed only eighty
two pounds, and became alarmed at
my condition.
"One Of my friends, neighbor.
suggested that try Tanlac, as it had
helped her so wonderfully. was wa
ling to give it trial so I told my
husband to get me a bottle. To my
dying day III bless the day I first
get this medicine, for it's the finest
thing I ever saw and the only medi-
cine that ever did me any good. be-
gan to improve from the very start
and have taken only two bottles, but
I've actually gained fourteen pounds.
and Pm glad to be able to tell you
the wonderful good this Tanlac has
done me. I've cotton completely over
my nervousness and can sleep like
a child every night. My appetite has
come back, and l can eat just any
thing want and am gaining in
weight every day. My constitution
and whole system have been built up,
and I had no idea such a great change
could come over me in so short \
while. just feel so much better
that my housework is pleasure -

RECORDS HOLIDAY NUMBER

On sober second thought. The
Record has decided to issue a
handsome holiday number. which
will be enclosed in beautiful COW
er printed in several colors. the de-
sign suggesting the Christmas sea-
son. and containing many special
features of a highly entertaining
nature. The number will comprise
twelve or more pages. and will is
sue December 18th, early enough
to make it an excellent medium
through which the merchants can
reach the public with their holiday
announcements.
You will want a few extra cop
les to send to your absent rela-
tives and friends to let them see
what we are doing here in Cedar
City. Better arrange for them
early, as the supply will be limited.
Advertising reservations may be
had as long as space is available
at slight increase over regular
rates.
The Record is the big. enter
prising paper of Southern Utah,
and you cannot afford to be with
out it for a single week if you
want to keep posted on develop
ments and happenings in this part
Of the State.

All mail and passenger cars between
Cedar and Lund were reported strand

According to reports, large num-
Der Of touring cars were stopped south

Parowan at noon.
There is no excuse, in the opinion of
Sheriff Froyd Of this county, for the
roads remaining impossible through
this county for more than three days.
With teams at the California ranch,
at Lund and at Cedar City, 1t should
have been simple matter to break a
road through the snow. The same
condition is true in other parts Of the
county. But the trouble is that no
one was expecting such a storm at
this season Of the year, and it took
quite while for it to soak in that we
were really up against serious stu
alton, and then equipment had to be
tried out and proven suitable before it
was dispatched on the roads. Another
time should occasion arise, we trust
that the road departments Of the coun-
ty and state better prepared to cope
with the situation.

RYAN Denies CoIlu.ion.

John d. Ryan. who was aircraft ad-
ministrator during the war. took &C.
casion yesterday to deny charges made
by Representative Graham, chairman of
the special House committee investiga-
ting War Department expenditures. The
charge was that large profits had been
made by the Anaconda Copper Co.. from
which Mr.. Ryan. as aircraft admins
traitor. ordered a large amount of metal.
Mr.. Ryan gave out this typewriter
statement: Mr.. Ryan said this after
noon the price OF copper was fixed by
the Government at 23ia cents in Septem-
Der, 1917, to bring 1t down from 80 cents
and above, where II was selling previous
to our entering the war and to insure
the maximum production which could
not be contained at a lower price. He
called attention to the fact that the
Anaconda, Inspiration and other COM
panies with which he Is connected are
able. fortunately for them. to make good
profits at a level OF prices that other
producers needed to come out whole. At
the time the Government price Of 23M
cents was fixed for copper Mr. Ryan
was acting with other copper producers
and was not occupying any govern
mental position. Eight or nine months
later he took charge Of aircraft pro-
duction."

German Marks.

German marks were exceptionally
weak yesterday, declining to he low
marks of and 81 which prevailed
last week The shipment Of great guam
titles of marks across the border to
Switzerland Is given as the cause for
the particular weakness. 1t was learned
In Wall Street that calls extending
for 80. so and 80 days on marks are
being traded in on the New street curb.
Another method adopted by several
houses which expect trade with Germany
later in the year Is the purchase Of
marks at their current level, leaving
them on deposit with the foreign ex-
change house, where they draw interest.
This is, in effect. buying a call on the
securities. 1t was suggested yesterday
that the depreciation Of the French and
Belgian exchange at this centre. a
depreciation proportionately greater
than the German mark. Is likely to bring
about a quick resumption of trade be-
tween France. Belgium and Germany.
II Is pointed out that France and Bel
gium cannot trade advantageously In
this country. but that at the current ex-
change rates they can do so in Germany.
