FOR FRESH MADE SWEETS

CHICAGO, Nov. 24.--Candy for the
kiddies viii be one-third cheaper this
Christmas than last, but it will cost
the same Tor the young man, pos
sessed with the "coSmic urge" to
"say it with chocolates" to his lady
fair.
It isn't that the candy manusac-
turers don't join the rest of the world
in loving lover, but, according to
Albert Levy, general manager Of =.
Auerbach and Sons, large candy
manufacturers. fancy box candy sold
now WAS made six months ago when
sugar prices were soaring. q
The public generally does not
realize that all of the best Enx
chocolate candy has to age before it
is good" said Levy. "All GOOD box
candy is about six months old. Fresh
candy is harmful to the stomach and
not so tasty as that which has been
aged in the box"
Candy for the kiddies--je1fy beans,
creams, hard tack, lolly-pops and the
like-will retail one-third cheaper,
according to Levy. The sweets
nunched by children and the grown
ups whose teeth permit will sell at
from 80 to 80 cents pound lower
than last year. The same grade last
year brought around SO cents.
Levy declared the price of candy
has been gradually receding with
sugar, but the price is still from two
to three times greater than before
America joined the war Greater de-
clines have not taken place because
the sugar price is not back to pre-
war levels and labor is still more
costly, he said ...

OF Mrs. Small
Upon being informed that Dough
ty-who disappeared at the same
time as Small-had been arrested.
Mrs. Small declared she felt renewed
hope that her husband would be
found or that she would at least learn
his fate.
II still have belief that Mr.. Small
is alive" she said "But I am afraid
that If ne is alive he is out of his
mind We got so many letters from
cranks and others that we couldn't
believe them, still so many Of them
spoke of his being mentally unbal-
anced that I'm afraid there may be
something to it."
Mrs. Small will leave New York for
Toronto, where Doughty is to be
taken. She did not know whether
she would confront the former private
secretary or not. The thing she most
feared today was that Doughty, de-
scribed as powerful man. might
manage to escape from detectives
who are taking him to Toronto.
Doughty is the sole hope for an
explanation Of Mr.. Sman's disappear
ance," she said. 1--WE have warrants

Holly is decked this week in the

and the store windows indicate
that the Holstein is supreme in

arly attractive windows is that of
L. NJ. Appel's clothing store, which,
was decorated by Miss Vera 9th
ems assisted by G. F. Hampton,
cashier of the A. v. Land Co.
This decoration embraces a volume
of dairy information by reason of
the displayed examples of milk,
cream, butter and cheese values.
To the dairymen this window dis
play is like reading an exhaustive
treatise on the dairy industry par
tcularly as applies to the product
OF the pure bred Holstein dairy
cow. The. conception as well as
the execution of this window dig.
play are highly commendable.

81 VOTES CAST.
Holly Spring Election Was a De-
cidedly Inanimate Contest

Holly's spring election Tuesday
was perhaps the most perfunctory
affair of the kind in the past Is
years. Though the registration
showed 427 legal votes in the town
but 81 votes were cast in Tuesdays
election.
OF this number but two votes
were cast by women, those OF Mrs.
Matte Demaray and her daughter
Miss Ruth Demaray. There were
but few scratched tickets The in
activity and indifference were due
of course to the fact that there
was virtually but one ticket in the
field and no issue. The vote Is
said to be the lightest cast at
Holly Spring election for 20 years
The officers, all reelected. were,
Harry D. Steele, mayor and NJ. U.

Shirley for town trustees. All the
candidates were nominees OF both
the Citizens and Peoples parties eX-
cept E. D. Shirley, who was Citi-
zen's candidate. J. G. Wadsworth,
nominated on the Peoples ticket
for trustee failed to qualify ana
therefore his name did not appear
