peal so much to the happiness of a
nation as the good, old-fashioned
desire of Nat Duncan for the daugh-
ter of the old Druggist of Radville
in THE Fortune Hunter" which the
Nellie Gill Players will present in
Fairlee, Bradford and Newbury this
week Wednesday, Thursday and Fri
day nights. This is the play which
enjoyed the longest run of any play
in New York City with the exception
of Peg % My Heart and Lightnin',
and after seeing it one can easily
understand why it pleased so many
thousands. It's a comedy of rural
life in a little country village like
this,-full of laughter and comedy
situations so true to life that you'll
think it must have been taken from
the next town from yours. It's a
good one.

Officers OF the chemical warfare

Naval Omcers Concerned.

chemical science to war on the sea.
At the annual chemical warfare

Rear Admiral w. S. Smith, in charge

Department. frankly declared that the
Navy was not nearly so concerned

it was over the development Of pois
gases as an offensive weapon against
seacraft.

EooD, shelter, clothing, and other
necessities and hundreds Of com
forts and luxuries now are within
the reach of residents of the United
States at far lower costs than in amy
other country in the world. This is
shown for the first time in history in
data collected by the federal reserve
board. America has always been the
land Of high wages and high prices.
Wages throughout the United
States, despite wholesale reductions,
still are higher than anywhere else in
the world. Prices of virtually all
commodities at the same time are at
record low levels in this country COM
pared with European nations.
The general. level of wholesale
prices throughout the United States is
approximately IL per cent above the
level of the prewar period. But in
other countries wholesale levels, ac-
cording to the reports to the federal
reserve board, are: Italy, 400 per
cent above the prewar period; United
Kingdom, 100; France, 232; Germany,
