AUTO PRICE HOLDS
WILL Be NO CHANGE

An interview with Mr.. ]. II. Den.
ison, local Buick distributor. makes
certain that the purchaser OF a
Buick car between now and the end
OF the 1919 season is not running
any chance that the price will be sub
ject TO further change during that
period.
II have just received letter
from the Home Office" said Mr.. J.
II. Denison, Containing the revised
price schedule effective January 1st,
1919, covering the various Buick
models during the remainder of the
season. Four models have been re-
duced in price and the other two re-
main untouched.
There has been considerable
speculation as TO what the Buick
Motor Company was going to do
about the prices OF their cars. as the
close OF the war left things in such
an uncertain condition regarding the
price and quantities OF raw material
available that good many people
felt II would be impossible for the
really big manufacturers to find
their bearings for some time to come.
This prompt action on the part
OF the Company shows that they have
been able to clear the situation up
sooner than anybody expected, and
] for one am delighted with the an
nouncement so early in the season.
Their war orders which have
been demanding the major part OF
their energies have been completed
and the announcement OF the pres
ent prices is evidence that the Buick
Motor Company now has a measure
OF the situation and sufficient ma
terial is in sight that will permit
laying out definite building
schedule which again proves the
buyer OF Buick automobile is at
III tAhtS PiObSNNSu dSdiuSL uh wal :
ranted price changes.
Orders for Buick cars are piling
up on US very fast and feel reas-
onably sure that we shall be able
to take care OF the greater part of
them within reasonable time. We
shall continue to follow our old pol
Icy of filling orders. and will make
every effort to see that no fayoritism
is shown our waiting list which plan
worked out so admirably in the past.
Buick enthusiasts appreciate the
Importance OF this announcement
because all uncertainty has been re-
moved, both as to the possibility OF
getting Buick cars this year and the
possibility of the prices being raised
or lowered"

Speakln' Of Boys.

"Yes," said the almost-philosopher,
there's a heap Of difference In the
attitude parents take In raisin' boys.
Some folks are content to bring 'em up
to be good men for the boys own sakes.
Others selfishly harp about wantin' the
boys to be credit to their parents.
This may be all right, but It seems to
me the only thing the old folks can
borrow on that kind Of credit Is trou-
bls."

Dear Mother and All:
This is my last day on furlough
and IL has been wonderful one
We are supposed TO check in al
headquarters tomorrow and find out
whore we are to go.
The second installment OF our
company came down here yesterday
and they tell me that the outfit Is
near Metz somewhere. II takes a
truck ride OF so hlometers from the
railroad station the way we have to
30 TO get to camp.
This surely has been a fine vaca-
tion and I'm mighty glad that 1 had
the opportunity TO come, but wish
II was in the summer time when the
resort was in full swing. The
weather has been bad most OF the
week and II was hard to plan on
that account. But / managed TO see
enough TO make II worth while.
GIL came down last night and we
took a trip up Mt. Reward by cog
train this morning and hike
around town this afternoon. There
was about three inches OF snow on
the summit and 1t was cold, but II
was clear enough so we could look
OF to the northeast and see Mt.
Blanc about seventy kilometers dis
tance. II had heaps OF snow on It.
Thanksgiving day we had turkey
and a football game. so II seemed
most like home. A dance at the Y
in the evening with all the dough
nuts and apples we could eat to
top II on with. II sure has been a
vacation and one that is appreciated
after our nine months at the front.
Breakfast Is served until 9 O'Clock
and arising at $3.50 Just about gets
us there in time. The breakfasts
consist OF sauce. (apple, prune. etc.)
bread and cocoa, with extras II
wanted. Dinner and luncheon are
about the same, soup. roast beef and
spuds. with a salad and fruit.
Bains is the French word for
baths and this place is the fine one
for them and they have all kinds,
shapes and sizes-tubs, showers,
plunges and one where they have a
spray covering all the body except
the back and they turn the one and
one-half inch hose on that. A fellow
ought to be clean when he gets
through the mill.
Have sent little Christmas re-
membrance from Aix-les-Bains and
hope you get it in good shape.
Haven't seen soul that / know
down here and there are thousands
OF the boys here at this place and
other towns near here.
Suppose there will be plenty of
mail for me when get back to the

and he informed me OF several let

Am enclosing circular OF Mt.

Have no dope about coming home
yet, but will try and let you know
when, IL It is possible.

LAST TIME TODAY OF
 AUCTION OF sOULS''

Aurora Mardiganian appears in her film, The Auction of Souls" for the last time at the Columbia today. A wonderful impression has been left with all those in the city who have seen this picture during it's stay here, and it is generally agreed that the powerful effect achieved in the picture is made possible by the fact that the leading role is taken by one who was there herself, subject to the hideous atroci- ties practised on the Armenians by the Turks, in their organized extermina- tion of the unfortunate people.
 Those who accept Mohammed will be allowed to go with their children the huddled group of women in the city square is told by their brutal masters, and yet not one of them renounces Christianity in order to gain her free dom.
 Viscount Bryce's official report is used in large degree as the basis for the film, which is sponsored by the commission for relief in the Far East.

Bessie BarriscaIe at Lamara

"The Woman Michael Married brings Bessie Barriscale to the Lamara in an entirely different role than any she has portrayed during her career in pictures. In this production, we find this versatile little lady cast for the part of a professional swimmer, employed to entertain at society "af- fairs" with exhibitions of fancy diving. She is possessed of a most wonderful voice which she hopes some day to be able to use on the concert and opera stage, and this accounts for her effort through diving to accumulate suf- ficient funds to enable her to receive the necessary training to attain her ambition. On one occasion, she meets at an affair" Michael Ordsay, rich bachelor and captain of one of the op- posing polo teams which is playing a match on the estate around which the story weaves. Ordsay breaks a leg in an accident, and when, the next day he sees his little 6-year- old pal fall into the ocean, he is powerless to gc to his aid. Mira Bessie Barriscale) rescues the boy, and the man promises her anything she desiers as a reward Seeing in the offer the chance to pos sess funds for the cultivation of hei voice, she asks that he marry her. The request is granted, much to the chagrir of Ordsay, ST, who voices his dis pleasure by leaving the son out of his will, and cutting off his allowance. How the husband and wife are again re- united, as well as what sort of gir ''the woman Michael married" proves to be, is most interestingly told in th' remainder of the story.
