President Of Apperson Company
States Cost of Labor and Ma
teriaI Remains High.

Tho Apperson Bros Automobile
Company. OF Kokomo. Ind. through
its president. Edgar Apperson. made
an announcement today stating their
views on the price situation.
"Apperson prices will not be ra-
duced," states Mr.. Apperson. The
present prices are guaranteed until
July ]. 1921. and there is little likeli-
hood OF there being any change then
unless 1t is to Increase them"
When questioned for further infor-
nation. Mr.. Apperson had this to say
Of the present situations:
'-rhe price OF any piece of mer-
chandise is based on the cost of raw
material plus the cost OF labor and
ovei head. to which Is added a fair
profit.
Vow tho greatest cost Of n motor
ear is labor. That has not como down
one penny. The other great cost Is
material. Neither has this Item
come down Just as sugar did.
utterly impossible to reduce their
prices a single cent.
This is because they were getting
iair prices and not making a penny
more than they should make
Already some or these makers who
reduced prices are advocating a re-
turn TO higher prices after January
!: Several just increased their prices.
so: In my judgment, the sensible
ming for the American public to do
doubtedly prices will not be reduced
on the contrary. they might have to

costly.
II there Is anybody who doubts my
statement as to the nonreduction OF

The figures would prove an interest

Thus. in conclusion. I want to EN-
phatically state for the benefit NOT
only OF the motor car industry. but

EVERY FLOWER
HAS A STORY
ALL ITS OWN
TIE CROCuS.

The IHOCUS.
In spring. when our lawns are
dotted with glowing crocuses. one is
not surprised to hear that this gay,
yellow flower signifies cheerfulness
in The romantic language OF flowers.
Dedicated 10 Lovers.
In the Middle Ages, however. the
crOcus was dedicated 10 lovers. u
was said that 10 hlo0mcd at dawn on
81. Valentines Day and that 10 pos
sessed The faculty 90 inspire love. So
shy maldens gathered 'crOcuses and
brewed love pOliOns from them
The old Greeks and Romans used
the crOcus as medicine 10 prevent
pestilence and plague and the odor Of
il was so well liked, that Roman
houses were decorated with crOcuscs
on festive occasions.
CrOcuS and Smilax.
The Greeks have a charming legend
about the origin OF this flower.
Crocus was a handsome youth who
loved beautiful shephcrdess.
SmilaX. Because the gods would not
allow them 10 marry, Crocus killed
himself. Flora. the goddess. pilled
SmilaX in her deep sorrow. and
transformed both lovers into plants.
Crocus became the beautiful flower
named after him. and Smilax a vine.
The iendrils OF this vine were used
TO bind the garlands Of crocuses that
lhe Greeks used at their marriage
festivals.
