Philadelphia, July 3G.-Charles S.

note general and decided fall in
prices and more liyuble future for
Mr. Common People.
Federal Reserve Bank officials note
the same trend, saying that a fan in
price for staple articles began about
the latter part of May and through
June, and has since continued.
Among the commodities most affect
ed are silks, cotton, leather, wool,
shoes, cloth, clothes and hosiery.
Food, too. While still high, is due for
a fall, it is declared Bumper crops,
improved future transportation and
better labor conditions In the offing
all will contribute to this desirable
end, it is declared
The era of extraordinary prices is
about over said Mr.. Caldwell.
Prices already in sight, and signs
everywhere all trend to show big
decrease in. the cost of those goods
which enter into everyday use by the
public, condition which will be
translated to the people within a short
time.
'Lessening of public demand for
many necessities is doing its part,
while extraordinary crops are doing
their bit. The recent fine weather has
been a gOdsend for the growth of high
grade cotton, and now one of tile best
crops in history is safe With the war
over, that cannot help but mean that
cotton will be available at much lower
prices than formerly
Food, too, is something that we
can feel hopeful about. The price has
not lowered to any appreciate extent
yet, it is true, but we are having d.
bumper wheat crop AID with improv-
ed transportation in sight as a result
of recent events, great crops which
have already been reaped will he

for flour, and you know what that

In Memory of Lifelong Friend

To say he had no faults is not mine
to say. But will say that they were
so few and so far between and close
akin to his many virtues that a diff
ference is hardly discernable. There
fore it is my purpose to speak of his
sterling worth as man, indeed a
good citizen, neighbor, friend, father
and husband. He was ever ready to
lend help to the needy, and protect
those who needed protection. He al
ways had undaunted courage suffi-
cient to defend the right and condemn
the wrong.
To his children I will say, emulate
his many virtues and you will never
be wasted thereby.

A Texas Visitor Writes.

While here on visit will attempt
to comply with wish by, at least, ,giv-
ing partial account of my visit to my
old home state.
Since entering the state have seen
many important things such as; great
cotton mills surrounded by fine cotton
patches, but no large cotton fields
such as we have over in Texas, saw
mills saving up some second growth
pines, furnishing good timber for
for building purposes, the travelling
thrasher, which is new to Texans and
great improvement over fifty years
ago. Next comes the new road system
but so far have seen no Frezno scrap
ers such as we have in Texas. To like
such an implement needs only to be
acquainted with its many advantages.
Next in line is the use of the automo-
bile which / suppose is known all over
the world, which reminds US that we
are living in fast age. Many, fear,
loosing sight of the fact that we are
human. Speeding our time away, as
it were, without giving full share
of human devotion to Almighty God
Now comes the attractive scenes Of
the giant oak, the old fashioned apple
my childhood, such as the pine forest
trees, some of which are laden with
delicious fruit. Last but not least, be-
holding the faces of many of my loved
ones and finding new acquaintance
and enjoying their sweet associations
and kind hospitality, which will re-
main a special jewel in my heart the
remainder of my stay upon earth.
