This is certainly the time To lay in

The big stores can now better afford to
sell their winter stun at cost than pay
the cost Of packing. storing insuring

have on hand. and that Is their only
alternative. as they must make their
way on their shelves and counters for
summer stocks. Therefore. clothing
is now being offered at prices that are

Telephone Rates Reduced


beginning January II. there will be-
considerable reduction In the Charge
for long distance telephone calls. The
new rates will make possible Il very
much better service on the part of III,
telephone company. at much lower cost
than at present. BY establishing va
rious diIerentials between calls hand
led In different manner. the public Is
offered such inducements that the work
will he distributed more evenly than
Is now the case. For instance. when
a person makes n toll call without
specifying that conversation Is desired
with u particular person and conncc-
tion Is established and cUnyersl tion II
held with anyone at the number called.
the station TO station" rate applies.
This rate Is determined by the air line
distance between tol' points. aud is com
puted ON the basis Of 5c for each six
miles, up Ia II miles. aud 80 for eac',
miles beyond that distance The rate
for calling and talking with specified
person is about one.fourth greater than
the station To station charge.
The big opportunity Ia save money
and 10 obtain best service lies In utiii-
zation of the new night rates; thess.
from 80 y. M. to midnight. are ahout
half of the station to station rate dur
ing the day, and. from midnight 10 4 10
n. m, only about one-fourth. Thus. a
call to III PaSo during the evening. af-
ter : :30, will cost ~ cents. aud after
midnight. up tn I 30 in the morning. Il
will be- only - cents. The day rate II
now ~ cents To III Paso; II will be go
