PINE BLUFF HAS
 NOT YET FELT
 DECLINE IN GAS
Local Oil Man Says Gasoline May Drop Two or Three
 Cents Here.

Despite the remarkably low prices of gasoline in Memphis New Orleans and Chattanooga, the prices still re- main the same in Pine Bluff Oil men are at a loss to explain the sudden drop in prices in those cities, and are more at a loss to understand why those slumps have not reached here
 As explained by one oil man, the drop in Memphis, and other cities is due to the fact that the Standard Oil company is in the market again, aft CT being out year on account of war contracts, and upon entering the market began cutting prices. Other oil companies followed suit, and the matter soon evolved into a cut-throat proposition. This fight, however, presuming that the solution, seems purely local, as only three cities have as yet reported such extraordinarily low prices.
 Another oil man stated that he ex- pected gasoline to go down to 23 cents here, but hardly expects drop any lower than that. The prices at the filling stations here is 26 cents Local filling station operators have stated that they are very anxious that gasoline drop to a low price as the commission is the same regard less of the price, and one stated that those who handled gas at the stations , did so at no profit, but only handled it for the accommodation of patrons l
 New Orleans, March 27.-While tho price of gasoline at the local stations l of the Standard Oil company and thu l Gulf Refining company remained a
 19 cents today, officials of both com panies intimated tonight that fur ther reductions would be made with
 in the next day or two.
 We are still selling for 19 cents, an official for the Gulf company said
 "but I can't promise you how lon' 4 the price will continue there."

The Maple Tree State
(Barre Timcs)

The New York concern which
wishes to be near the maple forests
in order to get raw material for Its
products could no tpick a better
place than Vermont as far as the
proximity of the raw supply is con-
cerned. Vermont is Il state of maple
trees--some of the finest naples
growing-and it could sacrifice
enough of the trees to give plenty
of material to the concern. NO
doubt, too, any one of the sizeable
towns OF the cities of the state could
furnish enough male labor to operate
the proposed plant for the more deli
cate parts of pianos. Shipping oppor-
tunities are reasonably good. These
three conditions seem to make it a
good business move to select YER
mont as a manufacturing point. If
the concern means business, nearly
any of the larger towns would be
glad to enter into negotiations.

face to face just now with the most
serious crisis of their existence.

POINDEXTER AID VERMONT

One of the first republicans TO for
mally announce his candidacy fol-
president is Senator Poindexter OF
Washington. He belongs to the pro-
gressive wing of the republican party
and has long been recognized as one
of the leaders of the liberal wing OF
the G. o. p. Velmontcrs are inter
csted in his ambitions because he
campaigncd in this state the last
time Col. Roosevelt was candidate
for the presidency. At that time his
party had a strong following in Yer
mont and the state was barely saved
for Taft at the November elections.
Another feature of the Senator's
campaign is that he has selected for
his New England manager, Charles
H Thompson, a Vermont promoter
and would be politician. Mr.. Thomp-
sons reputation as political man.
ager is rather fresh in many minds,
and his methods arc not always such
is to inspire confidence, even if they
win votes.
As far as Vermont is concerned
our state delegation ought to sup
port Gov. Coolidge as long as he has
any chance to win the nomination.
After that we believe they will find
stronger man than the Washing
ton Senator.

GEORGE w. WICKERSHAM
Former Attorney-General of the
United States.

George w. Wickersham, former
Attorney General of the United
States, il actively enlisted in the Ma
tion-W Wide Campaign of the Episco-
pal Church which is being waged for
a more practical, efficient religion.
Discussing the awakening of the
people, as one Of the outcomes of
the world war, and of their dawning
consciousness OF power and inf1u-
cnce in shaping the worlds affairs,
Mr.. Wickersham says:
at is distinctly church function
to lead in this. The politicians can't
do it. 1t isn't situation in which
partisan passion should play any
part. 1t is human problem, and
the part which the church must play
is that of getting down to a human
basis in its relations with men and
women and approaching them not
only from their spiritual, but from
their material side as we'll.
1--WE have had too much religion
that goes over the heads of the peo-
pie. We haven't been practical and
we haven't been efficient. The re-
ligion of the new era must recognize
and advocate that men and women
are rational human beings, entitled
to fair and adequate compensation
for their toll, and the blessings of
light, air, sunshine, flowers; ample
hours in which to enjoy all these
and stimulating amuscments. That
is at once good economies and good
religion. 1t is religion that makes
for efficiency, and religion that is
human, and practical"
This increasing of the human,
practical and efficient side of re-
ligion is one of the big problems to
be tackled by the Episcopal Church
in its Nationwide Campaign to in
crease at home and abroad its re-
ligious, educational, hospital and
social service work. After an in
tcnsive educational campaign will
come an every member canvass of
communicates of the Episcopal
Church on December 7 for funds to
the amount of more than $42, 900, 900
and for 1900 additional church
workers.

interest in the North church. Mr..
Richards said he always thought
deeply and thoroughly and that he
had rarely met Il man more eager 1or
the truth. The carnestness OF his
spiritual nature was prominent and
religion to him was an omnipresent
and vital force.
Mrs. A. 3. Noyes presented
warm personal tribute to Mrs. Per-
lev F. Hazen, referring to her as
rare woman who was so thoughtful
of others and so given to hospitality,
both in her home OIL the hill and IN
the summer home by the water. She
had merry heart and was woman
of cheerful yesterdays and confident
tomorrows.
Mrs. ]. S. Weeks spoke of Mrs
Hazen's relation to the patriotic So
ciety of the Daughters of the Ameri-
can Revolution. She said she was
Il charter member of st. John de
Crevecocur chapter, its second re-
gent and had long been its registrar.
She spoke of her great interest in
this organization, her trips to Wash
ington to attend the Continental
Congress of the society and of her
prominence in the state organization,
being state regent in 1914 and 1915.
Mrs. S r. Brooks referred very
feelingly to MIS-. Hazen's cheerful
disposition. She said Mrs Hazen
owed her musical ability to her
father and her hospitality to her
mother, who was an angel of mercy.
She gave several interesting anec-
dotes of Mrs. Hazcn's parents, pay
ing Il high tribute TO Mrs. Hazen's
inheritance of her parents many viz
tues.
Henry W. Ellis spoke very warm
ly of the affection the men that were
once boys in Mrs. Hazcn's Sunday
School class had for her and said
that there we're many here and else
where that would never forget her
many kind deeds.
In closing the service the pastor
said there was rich meaning in life
when that life was richly lived, and
that each one of the members to
whom tributes had been paid were
living epistles, known and read of all

In the home, at the club and
in fact wherever women con-
gregate the question Of the high
cost of clothing is always sure to
come in for a goodly amount of
comment.
ut isn't possible to secure
stylish clothing unless you pay
an cxorbitant price for it,, one
woman will say.
Another will chime in and
collaborate her sister saying,
cts just terrible the way the
stores are boosting up the prices
of clothing".
OTHER SIDE OF STORY
But how about the other side OF
the story? Are all wamen Of the opin:
ion that they cannot secure stylish
and scrviceablo merchandise at a
medium cost despite the present high
prices? They arc not. There are
many women and they are Of the
sensible type, who are always conced-
ed to be neatly dressed and who in
spite of the lecsont high prccs have
proved by practise that they can Sc
cure, by wise buying, stylish and ser
viceable merchandise at moderate
prices.
To prove that it is possible for a
woman to dress in these times at a
moderate cost the savings division Df
the Treasury Department through the
cooperation Of department stores and
its many field workers have made a
thorough investigation of the prob
lens which confront the woman buy
CT of clothes in these days Of high
prices.
The findings CT this investigation
show that despite the high cost of
living, women can. if they use good
discretion in selecting their clothing,
secure stylish, serviccable merchan-
disc at moderate cost.
or course it must be conceded that
because of this period of reconstruct
ton woman will necessarily have to
pay mere for her clothing than she
did before the war However,. it IS
also brought out in this investigation
that one reason for the real" high
prices of some merchandise existing
at the present time are the result of
the willingness of certain women to
Weekly Caledonian. (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1919-1920, 1919-12-24

pay any price for their ciothi.E re-
CARELESS of what their income may be
AS an example, the case in Connec-
ticut where girls earning not over Sit
week Paid $500 for fur coats fully
illustrates the reckless extravaganza
on the part of certain women.
Teaching Wise Buying
The Savings Division of the Treas
ury Department is not attempting to
discourage sensible buying. 1t 10 try
ing to teach woman to spend ac-
cordins to her income. Not only will
she benefit from aHch action, but the
high prices of certain articles of mer-
chandise will surely decrease if the
women refuse to pay such outlandisil
prices for them.
For the purpose of picturnG a strik-
ing illustration Of the difference bc-
tween cxtravagant speedy spending
and careful, conscientious buying
the above pictures were posed in a
leading Boston department store ea
pecially for the savings division, First
fit is exaggerated. both arc taken from
regular stock and the prices given
are correct, and each article can be
duplicated at the cost named. Other
stores in Boston and elsewhere could
make similar comparisons.
Gould Tell Difference
No doubt one after q careful study
Of the pictures could pick out the
model attired in the most expensive
costume, but after careful consider
alton would one pay difference O.
$422,65 for the higher priced outfit:
No sensible woman would.
Frankly, now as never before It
pays woman ito shop according g
many of the buyers Of some of New
England's leading department stores.
Let the woman who is about to pur-
chase wearing apparel or other mer-
chandfse make a careful study of her
needs, then taking into consideration
her income, she can after due delibcr-
alton determine just how much money
she can afford for such expenditures
The woman who does this will be
able to save money despite the pres.
ent high prices. If she invests these
savings in such government securities
as War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Certificates she will have in
vested money for future needs.
