There IS an impression broadcast that certain
Hammond restaurants are prohteering in food 4
The undersigned will unravel this erroneous
impression to anyone who will take the trouble to
investigate
To determine just what prohteering is requires
intricate knowledge of specific businesses and an
acquaintance with their accounting. methods.
We ask: Has anyone arrived at tangible and
definite conclusions among those who have issued
the challenge that we are prohteeringp
We shall answer this with an emphatic NO"
The restaurants in question are operating on a
very small percentage Of pro6t-as low as FIVE per
cent IN many instances.
True certain foodstufs have dropped in price.
Those that have dropped are the basic bulky foods,
flour and potatoes furnishing good examples
Of the more expensive foodstufs, there has
been only slight decrease in price Eggs furnish
fair example Today the choicest eggs are as high
as fifty cents per Dozen. During the high price
period they Auctuated between 90 and II cents.
There is no evidence they will be any lower than
they are at the present time.

Valley Township High
Wonders About Harvey


When Harvey Patterson entered
as a freshman In Valley Township
high school, there was excitement.
A new student in the school was
always the cause of talk, but Har-
vey much more SO than usual. In
the first place he had never lived
In Valley Township before. He
had a room down at Sol Egan's
farm, and apparently was working
there while he went to school. But
Sol, in this case even less commun-
icative than usual, had said moth
ing as to where his boy came from
or why he came at all. So Valley
Township was permitted to wonder
and talk, and talk and wonder.
Harvey Patterson was a fellow
who would arouse some comment
anywhere. He was tall, his eyes
keen, his countenance rugged,
open, and straightforward. He
said little, giving the impression
that his silence was due, not to nat
ural bashfulness, but rather to les
SOILS l6dTutu lIOIu CApSiiChSo.
No one knew where Harvey had
come from, but all were unanimous
in guessing that he had not always
lived in communities like Valley
Township. Neither had he always
lived in a city, for the work he did
on Sol Egan's farm was evidence
Of previous experience along the
same line.
Harvey had been in school only
two weeks and gossip about him
was nore keenly alive than ever.
Many had limited to him that they
would like to know about his past,
but he replied only with a smile
and a twinkle In his eye, Obvious
ly he had done nothing to be
ashamed of. He was not fugitive
from justice. Obviously too. he did
not care to reveal the facts about
his former life.
But why should any fellow ever

VIOLET RECEIVES AN
ENCHANTED SAPPHIRE

There once was a poor little girl
called Violet. She lived with her
mother by a great forest where peo-
pie said that fairies lived, but VOL
ct had never seen any. though she
had lived there all her life.
Every day Violet had to go into
the forest to get berries. A fairy
who lived near where Violet had
to pass every day. took a liking to
Violet, and decided to hide an en-
chanted stone for her. These stones
were very wonderful and were
about the best thing that a fairy
could give to a mortal.
One day Violet found the stone
which happened to be a sapphire.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1921-07-30

She picked It up and voice said
In her ear. What do you wlsh?"
and Violet answered. II should
like to have a new dress" And
there it was. She took 1t home to
her mother, who thought 1t very
pretty and asked her where she
got it. Violet told her and showed
her the stone, which when she
picked 1t up, asked. What do you
wish?" She replied: Il should
like to have new house." and
there 1t was.
With this sapphire Violet and
her mother lived happily all the
rest OF their lives.-Lorraine Petty.

MARY, JOHN AND AN ENCHANTED CASTIE

They did not find Mary. When
she found that they had taken him
away, she ran to the shore crying
to bring him back that she would
go in his place. But they did not
hear her for they were too far
away. She could see them beating
him. When they put him on the
ship they beat him and made him
work very hard.
Mary went back to the hermit's
house crying as though her heart
would break. The hermit tried to
ease her by telling her that he
would come back soon. John was
working very hard when the rest
of the men went to bed. AS he
noticed that everything was quite
still upstairs he went up to see
what was the matter. He noticed
that they had all gone to bed. He
slipped quietly out and got to
shore before morning. The ship
had drifted a long way off 1t hit
large rock and killed all of the
men. John not knowing that the
men were killed, got to the herm-
it's house at morning. He thanked
the hermit for taking such good
care OF Mary. He hurried away
with Mary so that the pirates
would not find them. They rested
under a great tree all night.

large tree was large castle. If
anybody forgot anything and they
wanted to know about it thew
could go In this castle and find it
out, everything would come back
to them
In the morning John and Mary
started on their journey again.
They came to this castle about eve
ming. not knowing it was the castle
that brought back memory. They
thought that they would go in and
stay all night, as it looked old and
worn out.
Just as soon as they stepped in
side the door their memory all
came back. They kissed each other
and ran out of the castle and called
man that was standing In an old
wagon. They told him If he would
only take them to the kings palace,
they would give him a very nice
farm. OF course the farmer did.
When they got to the kings pal
ace John remembered everything
as if 1t all happened the day be-
fore. He ran in the palace and
cried out father" The father
knew him and they both wept for
joy. He told his father his sad
story. The father asked who the
girl was. He told his father who
she was and her sad story. She
was Johns cousin
That night Mary got word to her
mother to come to her brothers
house that she was safe. Her
story was told to her mother who
died when hearing it. The crown
was left to her. She married John.

No Harvey Shows Up at
Halloween Party
1t was evident In the classroom
that Harvey Patterson had not been
In school for a considerable while.
He was bright enough, but never
theless study for him was difficult.
He appeared to be out of practice.
But, as the weeks wore along. he
became more accustomed to his
new environment, studying became
easier, he became more friendly
with his schoolmates, even though
they were much younger than he.
Still he made no chums. He had

but intimacy for none.
October passed. There was much
to do on Sol Egan's farm. Harvey
worked early and late. But only
once did he fail to appear at school.
and then only for half day. Hal
lowe'en approached and with II
came the annual Valley Township
Halloween party. an event that no
one missed.
Gladys Wellington and Lucille
Franks, together with a bunch OF
friends, decided to plan the down
fall of Harvey. After they were
through with him, his air of mys-
terry would be meaningless. They
planned to learn all, and they
planned 1t in very definite way.
Gladys was to be spokesman. the
rest would be her assistants Pete
Forgan and couple of fellows
were in on the plot. 1t was well
laid.
The annual party was held in the
big barn on the Winter place. 1t
had never looked prettier than 1t
did on this mellow October even
ing. No wonder that Valley Town
ship was on hand with scarcely a
man or a baby missing.
All but Harvey. Gladys, Lucille
and Pete looked for him in vain.
Where Is Harvey Patterson, to-
night?" Lucille inquired of Mrs.
Egan when it appeared that further
searching would be useless.
Land, grille, don't know where
he is. He told Sol that he would
like to get a day or so off this
weekend. That boy has worked so
hard that told Sol to let him go,
and go he did. He didn't say
where. He left about dusk this
evening, walking over toward Scio-
to Junction. 1t seemed to me that
he would be too late to get the 8
o'clock train, but maybe not He
