Why should ! build now?

That is a question which those who
are considering the building of a home
should ask very properly. 1t is ques-
ton that can be answered with weight
of argument that leaves no doubt as to
the answer.
In the first place it is cheaper to
build now than to postpone building.
The reason for this is the fact that build
ingNnaterials have advanced more slow
ly than other commodities and now are
on level much lower than food, clothing,
fuel and other things. This is supported
by government figures which show that
while building materials have been ad-
vancing 81 percent, the average of all
commodities has increased 113 percent.
Another thing-now is the time to
get the best selection of buildinassites.
Few cities are so favorably situated as
Oklahoma City in the matter of favorable
building locations at reasonable prices,
Scores of close-in additions offer fine
building sites now at prices that are
about the same as they were before the
The Oklahoma City times. [volume] (Oklahoma City, Okla.) 1908-1984, 1919-07-15

war. These building sites are certain to
increase in price, and the increase is COM
ing soon. If you buy ground now you
will be saving money.
Now-to a greater extent than ever
before-you will find solution for finan-
cial problems in building. There is a
fine spirit of cooperation in building in
Oklahoma City now. The Build Your
Home First campaign has been largely
responsible for this. Banks, building
and loan associations, insurance compan-
les and others have put their shoulders
to the wheel with characteristic Okla
homa City vim and energy and you will
find plenty of help in financing your
home building project.
The labor situation is more favorable
for building now than it has been. With
the wheat harvest taken care of, labor is
more plentiful than it has been. The
prices of labor have been stabilized, too,
and the cost of labor that will 90 into the
building of a house can be figured more
closely
Now if you have decided to build
home there are score of reasons that

urge you to build as quickly as possible.
If it will be good thing for you to be
living in your own home next year. how
much better if you could move in at once
You will have that much more time in
which to improve your property with
trees and shrubbery. You will make but
one more move-the move into your own
home. You will begin at once to save
rent you now are paying your landlord
Summing it all up, it is evident that
this is good time to build. This conclu-
sion is supported by the fact that great
amount of home building now is in prog
ress in Oklahoma City. These building
projects, have been begun after thought
full consideration of prices and available
ity of materials and labor. If these hun
dreds of persons find it opportune to
build now, it would be well for you to in
vestigate their experience.
Why should build NOW?
Ask the question. Find the answer.
Then you will build.

 AT CHATTANOOGA
Insurance Superintendent Feels Full of Energy Now, But Felt Weak
 Before

J. r, Wilkerson, superintendent of the Chattanooga district for the South ern Insurance company. and one of Chattanoogas prominent residents, highly recommends Meritone, the new system medicine, because of benefits It brought him. MT. Wilkerson lives al 4401 Alabama avenue, Chattanooga q was nervous and all run ooWh' MT. Wilkerson said. My nerves were in such bad condition that I couldn't sleep at night or get my rest and as a result I felt sleepy during the day and didn't have any ambition.
 LACKED APPETITE
 "My stomach was out of order some what also. I didn't have any appetite and was bothered with indigestion.
 q had the influenza last october and after that I felt worse than ever.
 Since taking Meritone my nerves are back in much better condition and I sleep a lot better nights. Aa re- suit, I feel fine through the day and seem full of energy.
 My stomach Is In much better con- dition now also. and l have a wonder ful appetite and can eat anything l want
 TELLS FRIENDS
 q have told several friends about Meritone and it is helping them now"
 Meritone is highly recommended in cases of stomach, liver or kidney trou- ble. catarrhal complaints and the like or to strengthen and build up the sys- tenn.
 Meritone is being specially intro duced in Birmingham at the Jacobs drug store. at 1904 Second avenue. and at the Norton drug store, and may be obtained in Bessemer at Pegram-Pat- ton Drug Co, and in Ensley at the Berney drug store.--Adv.

conference announcement may be made of the quotas allotted to each of the several of the states and districts in the division. and the disposition to be made of such money in furthering the home service work of the Salvation Army.
 The activities in and around Birming- ham, it is understood, will form an inn portant part of the states budget. This city is a center of many Salvation Army activities, and the Rescue home, Indus trial home and other institutions here give relief to needy persons from wide area in this and surrounding states.
 The disposition of the Salvation Army hostel and it's probable use for some phil anthropic purpose interesting to the en- tire state also will be discussed al the conference
 The Salvation Army hostel at Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, was the delight or many soldier hearts during the two months of its operation before the camp closed. When the contracts were let and work began on the hostel it did not ap- pear probable that the camp would be abandoned in so short time as informa- tion from Washington indicated that Sheridan would be one of the last of the camps to go into disuse.
 Now the problem has arisen as to what shall be done with the building, which was constructed and equipped at a cost of approximately s230O. It has an as- senbly hall, large social room, dining room and kitchen, hot and cold baths and sleeping rooms. The location is near Pickett Springs, and on the car line between that resort and the city of Mont gomery.
 The suggestion already has been made that the building be used as home for widows or orphans of soldiers who lost their lives in the world war. Staff Cap tain David Main, divisional officer of the Salvation Army with headquarters in Birmingham, has asked for suggestions ss to the best use to which this build

A triumph of modern pharmacy that is blessing to the whole wor1d-that is the opinion of physicians and drug gists who are familiar with the new, nausealess calomel that is wholly free from the objectionable effects of the old style calomel.
 An occasional purif! ing of the system and thorough cleansil g of the liver are absolutely essential health, and, as the doctors know, cal alomel was the only drug that accomplished this result. Now that the unpleasantness and dan ger of salvation are entirely removed, the. popularity of the new ca1omeI, Cal otabs, will be vastly increased. It's ef- feet is delightful One tablet at bed time, with a swallow of water--that's all No salts. no nausea, no griping, nor the slightest unpleasantness. You wake up next morning, feeling fine. your you flyer cleansed, your system puri- breakfast. Eat what you please-no danger of salvation. No restrictions Of habit or diet.

"Chu1 Chin, Full Of Life
 And SparkLe-Jefferson

Charles Dililngham's oriental spectacle, "Chin Chin" which opened it's second engagement at the Jefferson theatre las. night, has all the pleasing qualities of the initial production. A large and capa- ble company presents the show which is combination of nearly everything pos sible in musical comedy. There are scenes rich in color and beautifully cos tuned, dolls teddy bears, comical horse, clown band, and a long list of tuneful musical numbers and dancing specialties. all beautifully staged and full of life and sparkle.
 Walter Wills and Roy Binder take the parts originally played by Montgomery and Stone, and in which Doyle and Dix on were seen here last year. Both are talented comedians and dancers. MT. Wills, who does the greater part of the funmaking, has ineXhaustible vitality, is a dancer of extraordinary agility and is one of the most versatile men of the stage. His dances, particularly one with Miss Tree, were a feature of the perfor- nance. His burlesque of Paderewski at the piano was a diverting piece of non- sense. As a bareback rider there was little he didn't do except ride.
