the State Federation of Women S
clubs.
Women are the most powerful fac
tor in solving the high price problems
and preventing reckless spending of
money" Hackney asserts in his letter
to Mrs. Taylor. ''At least 80 per cent
of the money spent for food and cloth
ing is expended by women
Claiming that the demand for un-
usual styles ane merchandise and un-
intelligent buying by women, is a
first cause in excessive prices, Hack
the state study the proposition of wise
buying in an effort to educate the
women of the community in the mat
ter of sensible purchases.
In his letter to Mrs. Taylor. Mr..
Hackney states. LAS you know, pro-
mand and especially is this true if
those who are responsible for the ex-
penditure of 80 per cent of the living
expenses do not know how to buy in
telligently or waste the time of indus
try in buying unusual styles and mer-
chandise that lacks durability.
Our committees find a Woeful lack
of information in reference to the
quality of goods and a disposition of
the public to- judge quality only by
price. You have a splendid body of
women who are engaged in study
clubs who can do much to relieve the
present situation if they will devote
one or two meetings a month to the
study of how to buy wisely having in
mind dura bility in both style and ma
terial. Merchants will be glad to ap-
pear before your clubs and assist in
this study.
.'I trust that it will not be asking
clubs to devote a part of the time to
the study of this problem"

ADJUSTMENTS
Neil O'Brien-Jefferson

No matter how good minstrel show
 may be, it is seldom indeed that an en- tire performance of this kind can be
 given without becoming tiresome, but the Neil O'Brien company which opened an engag cement at the Jefferson theatre last night, with big crowd in attend lance achieved the seemingly impossible.
 Mir o Brien, who is veteran In black- face comedy and stands supreme as a
 producer and actor of minstrel sketches, has surrounded himself with capahie performers who put real enthusiasm as
 well as talent into their work. There is more wit and humor in the show thfS year than is usually found in such forms of amusement. The laughs are not linn ted to any particular feature but may be said to be continuous thoughout the performance.
 With the exception of Vaughn Comfort, la pleasing interlocutor who is also d favorte among minstrel patrons, the company is not particularly stsong in vocalists although the ensemble singing is good but there is no lack of tirst-ciass comedy and skillful dancing.
 Davis CiSugarfoot) Gaffney, dancer and comedian of much ability; B. Rains,
 Billy Van Allen and John King evoked laughter with their quips and songs in
 the first part" which concluded with
 patriotic finale
 Aunt Sally Simpi5ins Syncopated So-
 ciable" was an amusing dancing mum
 Der. with the principal comedians talk
 ing part MT. Gaffney was again much
 in evidence and Fred Miller's acrobatic
 dancing was applauded.
 Neil O'Brien's slit this year is en- titled ''Meatless Day and it is one of
 his best He is inimitable as the waiter
 in a restaurant where all sorts of things
 happen that are never witnessed in one of MT. Thompson's tiled 'luncheries,N Mir O'Brien was assisted by Major No- walk and other members of the company. He injected into the piece great deal of his original humor His impersona-
 tions are always admirably done.N Vaughn Comfort and John King were the principals in a coontown travesty on divorce Mr King has no equal as a delineator of wenches and colored ma l trons

 male impersonator; and the company to | create mirth. l There will be a matinee this afternoon and another performance tonight.

Station to Station" Rate

When a person makes a toll call without specifying that conversation is desired with a particular person, and the connection is established and conversation held, the "station to sta ton" rate applies.
 This rate is determined by the air line distance between toll points and is computed on the basis of 5c for each 6 miles, up to "A miles, and 5c for each miles beyond that distance.
 Station to station" calls should be made by number wherever Telephone Directory information is available. Where this information is not avail able at the calling telephone, such calls may be made by giving the toll operator the name and address of the subscriber at the telephone called.
