posed, with representatives attending
from the government department. the
states and veterans Of American wars.
The plans. Secretary Baker said,

UNSIGNED NOTE HINTS
GiBBONEY STILLLIVES
Former Attorney for Bergdoll,
Draft Dodger, Was Reported
Drowned Recently.

Suggestions that D. Clarence Glib
honey Of Philadelphia, former attorney
for Grover Cleveland BergdolI,
wealthy draft dodger who escaped to
Germany. was not drowned recently
of the coast Of Mexico as reported are
contained in an. unsigned letter re-
ceived today from Philadelphia BY
Chairman Kahn OF the House military
committee.
In making the letter public, Chair
man Kahn, whose committee is to
begin an inquiry Thursday into Berg
dolls escape, said this was the first
intimation that had come to him that
there was any doubt that Mr.. Glib
honey had been drowned after the
laundering Of q small boat near
Campeche. Mexico, some months ago.
State Department officials do not
credit reports that Mr.. Gibboney was
not drowned and is in hiding They
said relatives of the lawyer had re-
Quested the department to obtain
permission from the Mexican govern
Snent for the disinterment of the body
and its shipment to the United States
and that the necessary permission had
been given by the Mexico City au-
thorities despite a Mexican law pro-
hibiting the disinterment of bodies
for q period of five years.

three years old, giving his address
as Petersburg. Va, and Gladys Eliza
beth Plot. fifteen years old. whose
home is in Wilmington, N. c., were
arrested in this city yesterday aft
ernoon by Detectives Davis and Wal
dorf.
A message from the United States
marshal in Wilmington requested the
local police to hold the man, giving
the Information that he held war
rant for him and would come for
him. Walker said he thought the
warrant probably charged him with
whisky running.
The young man said he had shipped
on q coast steamer under tho name
of James Newkirk and gave the de-
tectives his shipping card. 1t is
probable that the girl will be taken
home when an oficer comes for
Walker.

Miss Lila Ruth Robertson, Of
Bethel, well known and very popu-
lar here, played the star role in
"Green Stockings" the Senior play
recently presented at Randolph-M Ma
con Woman's College. The following
complimentary press notice from the
Lynchburg News, will be Of much
interest to Miss Robertson's friends
here:
"As a part of the commencement
exercises now current at the Ran
dolph- Macon Woman's College, the
senior class play was given at the
Academy of Music last night, and a
record breaking audience, one of cul-
turc and refinement, spent a delight
full evening.
The play chosen by the class of
1921, was the English comedy drama,
"Green Stockings" which was play
ed professionally some years az, by
Margaret Anglin. The play is in three
acts-lriely comedy with thread
Of romance Of a typical Englis1-type,
and it vas indeed surprising how
well the scenes were pleyed. through
difficult undertaking the full com
edy values were so well brought out
that the audience was simply ron-
vulsed at frequent intervals.
The story, which is written around
the romance of Celia Faraday and
Colonel Smith, offers abundant OPP
portunity which is accepted to the
credit Of the entire cast,
Miss Lila Ruth Robertson, in the
role of Celia Faraday, the part orr
ginated by Miss Anglin, was splen-
did. Her Interpretation showed keen
insight and an intellectual develop
ment and her naturalness and easy
mannerisms gave strength TO her
Characterization. She was we'll sup
ported by Naomi Helfrich, Ben
Brown, Edith Lee and Willanna
Walker, in the other female roles.
The male roles were portrayed by
Katharine Akers, Alta Overmayer,
Helen Smead, Mary LaFar, Mary
Wyatt, Marion Magruder and May
T.. Moore, all of whom deserved
mention"

Real Happiness

A great multiplicity of material
things do not create happiness.
Many Of the happiest people know
have very little with which to be
happy, but much to be happy for
health, life, opportunity. To life in
the most glorious country in the
world, in the best time of all his
tory, surrounded by friends and
with a chance to love, to help, to
work and to be useful; the oppor-
tunity to make the world better
place to live in-these are the things
to make us truly happy. Why, the
humblest of human beings has an in
finite number of things to make him
happy if he will only stop to con-
slider them.

Coal Bills in Maine

In the state Of Maine the house
holder has not only a longer but
harder winter than the rest of our
Atlantic seaboard in which to pay
coal bills. And the best he could do
early this year in converting his
money into coal. with not one red
cent, included either for the whole
sale Dealers profit or for the retail
dealers profit, will show every other
consumer as well as the Maine con-
sumer what it is he pays for now
adays when he buys his coal.
The average Maine cost in the
householder's bins without any deal
ers' profits at all, according to Geo.
Otis Smith, director of the United
States Geological Survey, is $15.17
a short ton. This is the way that
cost of $15.17 a ton is made up:
Labor at the mine, inside, 1888:
outside, ga cents; power house and
general colliery, 18 cents! admins
trative, 7 cents; total labor cost at
the mine, $4.27 a ton.
Material at the mine, inside, 79
cents; outside, 81 cents; total, $1.36.
Reserves: Local taxes, IL cents; /;
compensation insurance and other
hazards, "a cents; depreciation. de-
p,etion, etc, 33 cents; total, SO
cents.
Producers total mine cost, as by
the foregoing, $6.32. 4
To which must be added selling
expense, 8 cents; margins for fed
eral taxes and dividends, So cents.
Buyers cost at the mine, as by the
foregoing, $6.92.
Freight charges, $6.25; federal tax
on freight, 10 cents; total freight
cost, $6.44.
Cost to buyer at railroad station
in Maine of all the foregoing, $13.36.
Yard and office expense of local
dealer, % cents; delivery in consum-
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1921-06-16

er's bin, $1.59.
Total of all the foregoing, $15.17.
Note that about half the total
cost of getting coal to the consum-
er's bin is transportation, $6.44,
chiefly labor. Mine cost, $6.32, is
chiefly labor. Local delivery, includ-
ing yard expense, $1.S1, is chiefly
labor.
Note that of the total laid down
cost Of $15.17 full 12.6tmade
up of mine labor cost, $4.27; com
pensation insurance and selling ex-
pense, 32 cents; freight charges,
1925, and local yard and delivery
cost, $1.S1-chiefly goes to wages.
If there is no profiteering in the
coal business, if there are no profits
at all anywhere from the mouth Of
the mine to the bin Of the consum-
er, the American people cannot burn
coal and keep themselves warm at
anything like a reasonable price until
the labor costs of mining, hauling
and handling coal comes down to a
reasonable cost.

Produce Review

Live hens are moving in normal
quantities for this time of the year.
The movement of springs is light,
farmers evidently holding them until
they become larger.
Eggs are moving in reduced guam
titles, and with fair inquiry for ex-
port shipment there has been a fur
ther advance in the market. Few
eggs are going into storage at pres
ent, as the production is just about
enough to take care of the consum-
ing demand.
Butter values improved during the
week, due to heavy consumption and
the demand for June butter for stor-
age. Indications are that pastures
will be good for some time, which
should mean good production of
butterfat.
