sions with appropriate scripture tes-
timony and prayer, closing with con-
seclation service at midnight.

Mystery In Loss of
Doctors Chickens

Two chickens that were to have
been part of the royal feast at a st.
JohnsbuIy doctors home on New
Years Day have disappeared mys-
teriously. Whether the chickens got
hold of some of the doctors revivis-
cent tablets and took upon them
selves their former habits and walk
away, is a theory that is discarded
by the doctor, who, without prejudice
to his own remedies, believes that
the chickens, all nicely dressed and
hung out in the barn to keep chilled
until the aforesaid feast, were forci-
blv removed by human hands. It's
will be a Disappointing New
Year if the doctor does not find
those chickens OR if the person or
persons who removed them does not
return them to the doctors home be-
fore the call comes for the feast on
Saturday.

 This tendency has been increased by the raising of the rediscount rate to a point which makes 1t vital to the bank to lower it's load of government securities in as great a degree as possible.

Thus this procedure becomes an im- portant factor in keeping up the high cost of living, since the savings that would otherwise help to stabilize con- ditions become funds competing for the purchase of luxuries and non-es- sentials at exorbitant prices.
