EYES
 TURNED THIS WAY
State Committees of Demo- crats and Republicans to
 Meet In Birmingham
By FRED H. GORMLEY.
 Montgomery Bureau The Age Herald

Montgomery. January 24.-(Special.)- Eyes of Alabama democrats and repub- licans are turned on Birmingham because
 of the meeting of the state executive committees of the two parties next week The republicans will have tner pow
 WOW first. Pope NJ. Long, chairman or
 their committee, has issued call tor a , meeting Tuesday, when plans for the campaign will be discussed and arrange ments made for a state convention tor
 the selection of delegates to the national convention. Republicans hope for but do not look for harmony. An interesting fight has developed between political friends of General Wood and Governor Lowden, two candidates for the repu6- lican presidential nomination, and It would be no surprise to see the issue brought before the executive committee in the hope that showdown of strength may be obtained
 If the fight comes Joseph o. Thompson,
 leader of the Wood adherents, will be found on one side and w. l. Kennemer, secretary of the state committee and H. G. Ashley, former collector of the Port
 of Mobile, on the other. MT. kennemer
 and MT. Ashley have given much at tention recently 10 the campaign of Gov
 ernor Lowden and have organized with the hope of giving him the votes of the AldDd1nd ucleSdIeS. l lc Sldlt
 tee will have great influence on the con-
 vention, and each side is hoping 1t will
 be able to control q majority of the committee.
 Each side desires to take the lead, be- lieying republican success in the Novem-
 Der election may be foreseen and that
 the winners will have the influence with the republican administration. Mir
 Thompson s powers as referee during the
 administration of President Roosevelt
 are being used by the Lowden friends
 as reasons why the republicans should
 not support General Wood.
 The democratic executive committee will have it's meeting Friday at the Tutwiler hotel. It will make plans for the primary, which will be held May Il, will determine how candidates for the presidential noml- nation may have their names placed on the official ballot and will make assess ments against all candidates in the pri- mary in conformity with the amendment of the primary election law, which pro- vides that assessments may be levied to

THINKS WARDROBE FOR EX- SOLDIER IS RATHER ELABORATE

To the Editor of The Age-Heraldi
 Referring to Bob McDavid's story about the soldiers wardrobe list in tOday's Age-Hernid:
 Ali morning Eve been pondering that simple little wardrobe of ne- cessities for which your ex-soidier friend of quiet tastes md moderate circumstances paid $312.S5, as re- lated in Saturdays Age-Herald. recall that such an outfit was dis cussed at length by a trio of dough- boys, who, being inadvertently parked in n shell hole near Chateau Thierry one night, had nothing to do but spin yarns to stifle yawns. However, we never dreamed that any hard boiled Tank would so completely revert to type ms to ever thereafter require the services of a valet to keep up with his nighties, neckties and other nom essentials.
 A guy that's spent three years in the l. T. 0. d. wouldn't know what to do with all that stuff. much less kEow how to get the wherewith to buy it--unless perchance some dot- ing aunt financed the transaction, in winch ease it's him that's prof ifeering and nobody else.
 Since I can remember a change of pajamas for me has always been contingent upon the hOped-for return of the weekly wash, come Saturday. As for whole dozen nj n q handkerchiefs. collars. etc.. to say nothing of two perfectly good suits and raincoat in addition to the sometimes necessary OvercOat. md two pairs of shoes unacquainted with the repairman's bench--I say. as for all this extra equipment. never hope to own it/except by in- stallments, nor does any other fell low in s'moderate circumstances"

The Cash and Carry Grabateria
The Changing Times

The of Chain Stores came about because a
group of men with large capital could, by starting
stores in different localities increase the outlet OF
merchandise eminating from one source.
The Chain Store system is nothing more than
any other store except the buying part concentrat-
ed at one place. The buyers for these stores have
their headquarters at the source of production and
they buy direct from the packer or the producer.
1t goes without saying that buyer who can buy
the same sort of merchandise for several hundred
stores can command better price than buyer for
just store.
The secret of advantageous grocery prices IN ST.
Johns is this ability to buy in connection with many
other stores. That is why you have had established
by this store better prices than prevail almost any
where in Portland.
Coupled with this buying capacity, the activity
of the owners the acquaintance with the locality be-
cause of our long residence here ought to convince
any one that we do business at less cost than the
average grocery.
We always believed that "a word to the wise
was sufficient"
