Annual Community
Tree Again Success

Yes, Santa visited our community.
If you don't believe 1t ask most any
one of the many children who saw
him at the Community Christmas
tree, which was held at the opera
House last Friday evening.
The school children, under the di-
rection of their teachers, had been
making preparations for his arrival
for several weeks and good pro-
gram was prepared for the event.
The various grades were represent
ed in these exercises and several
numbers were presented by individu-
ais.
The committee in charge of decor
ations has secured two splendid
Christmas trees which were artis-
tically decorated with those things
that go omake an ideal tree and
they were the Joy of every child
One feature was community sing
ing of Christmas hymns, the words
being thrown on the screen with a
steropticon. Everyone Joined in sing
in these hymns with enthusiasm.
At the close of the program old
Santa arrived and announced that
there was supply of candy and nuts
for ali the children but owing to the
fact that he had to be on his way he
had asked several local men to as
sist in the distribution.
From reports we have received
since, Santa visited every house ir
town later in the evening with mos
satisfactory results.

Xmas Program
M. E.. Church
Little Tots Please Parents with their
Christmas Songs and Acts

On Thursday evening, Mrs. G. E.
Martin, our very efficient primary
superintendent, and her six assist
ants gave little Christmas Party
in the basement of the M. E. Church
for the primary pupils and their par
ents. The basement was artistically
decorated in the Christmas colors
and a prettily decorated tree, hold
ing its share of we'll filled stockings,
and lighted with colored lights, stood
at the south side of the basement.
First on the program was a song
10Y to the World sung by the au-
dience, followed by a prayer from
Rev. G. E. Martin. The choir then
gave Christmas anthem which was
very we'll rendered. The little folks
then took possession of the stage for
the balance of the evening, and han
died their part of the evenings en-
tertainment in a pleasing and enter
tanning manner.
AS the pianist struck up the first
notes Of their offering song, Cheer
fully Giving. they filed out of the
kitchen led by the tiniest tots sing
ing their Offering song and giving
their offerings for the Near East
Relief.
They made a complete circle,
marching around the audience.
After this song an offering was
received from the audience for this
same fund.
A very interesting program follow
ed, motion songs, solos and dialogues
each number a success. The last
number on the program was the
song, "Holy Night" The little folks
kneeling in front Of the tree and sing
ing It.
Whenthi 8 song was completed
they wished us Merry Christmas
They had the Roll Call and as each
child responded they received a we'll
filed stocking and q book nicely
wrapped and decorated, with Christ
mas seals. Everyone received ro
sy apple and Rev. Martin presented
all the parents with M. E. calander

good you are to us. If the present
weather is your Christmas gift to

Wave of Reduced Prices Continues II
Sweep Country.-Banks Reported
to Have Warned Luxury Deal
ers to Go Easy

New York, May 22.-Influence bs
the nationwide price cutting agitation
that is steadily gaining ground, the
principal commodity markets of the
country yesterday continued to mark
down quoted values. Cotton, sugar
and corn options broke violently here.
and in Chicago cereals and provisions,
including pork, also suffered sharp re-
actions. Significance was attached to
the drop in pork prices as marking
the first pronounced break in high
priced foodstuffs.
The stock exchange showed i'm
provement on a sharp recovery of
liberty bonds and victory notes.
A large part of yesterdays liquida-
ton in cotton and grains was attrlbut-
ed to the further scaling down of cred
its by banking institutions here and in
other reserve c%enters, evidently in CON
formity with the request of the fed
eral reserve board.
In the local cotton market, May con-
tracts broke almost 400 points with
equally sharp reactions in New Or
leans. The Liverpool market also re-
ported substantial reactions.

Chicago. May 20.-The wave of price
cutting in wearing apparel yesterday
continued to sweep the country, mer-
chants in many cities and towns an
nouncing reductions in mems and
women's clothing, shoes, hats and
other articles, while some merchants
said the reductions could not be main
tanned after present stocks were ex-
hausted others declared the price cuts
were the logical outcome of breaks in
the eastern market, a backward sea-
son and large stocks on hand.
Owners of department stores in
scores of cities and towns yesterday
announced price reductions in mems
and women's apparel ranging from 20
to 80 per cent. while in some places
shoes and other articles we're sold at
reduced prices.
While the movement, which assumed
nationwide proportions Monday, CON
tinued to spread. banking interests in
New York yesterday extended their
campaign of deflation of credits and
high commodity prices, carrying out
their pledge to the federal reserve
board. Pressure exerted by banks IN
the wholesale dry goods and general
merchandise districts was said to be
responsible for the wave of %price-cut-
ting in the retail trade.
Banks were reported to have SEN
word to importers. and dealers in lux
urious articles of apparel and manufac-
turers of sO-called non-essentials that
only moderate financial accommoda-
lions could be expected now.
The price-cuts largely were con-
fined to wearing apparel, but a spread
of the movement to other lines was in
dicated by the action of Omaha dem
lists in reducing their prices.
A newspaper advertisement yester-
day by a Newark clothing concern de-
nounced price-cutting as IAN economic
mistake" asserting that it is "eco-
nomically unsound to sell merchandise
today for a price which is less than
we "a buy it from the makers any
where. What the world needs is great
er production, not the drastic sacrifice
of retail prices. Several Milwaukee
merchants characterized the movement
as a 'circus stunt"
In st. Paul, where marked price re-
auctions were announced in business
establishments, the largest wholesale
millinery concern in the northwest an
nounced it would open its doors to re-
tail trade and dispose of a $1,000, 900
stock at prices 80 per cent below pre-
vailing retail prices. One large mems
furnishings store, which operates
stores in several cities, announced a
general reduction in prices of Is per
cent.
Price reductions ranging from 10 to
so per cent were advertised by a num-
Der of Boston retail stores. While most
of the reductions were in clothing, one
department store announced a reduc-
ton of % per cent in cotton blankets,
linens and similar materials.
A Texarkana, Ark, shoe store an
nounced a sale of $12 shoes for S4.S5.
Other stores advertised large reduc-
tions.
A break in the eastern market, a
rainy spring and large stocks ON hand
were responsible for a reduction in
women's clothing, dealers said.

SHORTAGE IN TEACHERS
THIS FALL NOT FEARED
Supt. Thurston Confident Increased
Salaries Will Bring
Response.

No fear of a shortage of public
school teachers this fall is felt by school
authorities. Despite the threats by many
teachers that unless Congress provided
them with some form Of emergency
financial relief for the summer vacation
period they would not return to the
school service in September, S,ipt
Thurston today expressed the belief that
there will he sufficient number Of
teachers TO fill all vacancies which may
occur before the rcopening of the
schools.
Applications for teaching positions are
now being made daily by former teach
ers. many of them who are now con-
necaed with the government service.
There are still hundreds of former
teachers employed in government offices
the superintendent believes. who are
anxious to return to the school service
Some of these will be among the Cover n-
ment employees who will be dropped
from the pay rolls July J. and The
super ntendent is of the opinion that
they undoubtedly will ask to the rein
stated in their former positions.
