MILK TO DROP
TO IS CENTS

The price Of milk will drop from
II to 16 cents q quart on February /.
This announcement by local milk dis
tributors today came as q result Of
the decision yesterday Of the Mary
land and Virginia Milk Producers
Association to cut their Wholesale
price from 40 to SO cents a gallon.
This is tho second time within .
month this association has cut its
price by cents. Each Accent re-
duction in the wholesale price makes
possible 1 cent quart drop in re-
tail charge.
There is some milk on the mar
ket that must be disposed Of" said
Thomas Mclaughlin, secretary and
manager of the association, when
asked today the reason for the re-
duction. A surplus Of milk caused
the producers on January 1 to cut
their milk from A to 40 cents a
gallon.
A further reduction in prices is ex-
pected within the next few months.
The cost Of feed today is lower than
any time in several years. However,
farmers purchased their feed supply
while the high prices were being
charged and the milk price will not
be effected until this supply is ex-
hausted. 1t will take two or thre'
months for the farmers to get rid OF
their present food supply.
Hope was held out today for milk
as low as 10 to IL cents q quart by
summer. Local distributors point out
that the feed costs will probably
cause a material reduction in the cost
of production.
While the majority Of stores will
sell at 10 cents, many chain stores are
planning to reduce to is cents and
even IA cents q quart.

being disfranchised, so far as It's vote

Thistlewait rejoined.
Albrecht stated today that Wolf had
been instructed to mail a copy imme-
diately after the college adjourned.
Wolf didn't. He put the certificates
in his safe. Then he became i'll about
two weeks ago, and none Of the elect
ors thought any more about 1t until
they were urged last night to act
swiftly in the matter.

Again the much mootod street

the conscience of the House District

Even IL the District COMMITTEES
does intend to wash its hands of the
vexatious problem by leaving 1t
stealthily on the doorstep of the
House, carefully swathed in regu-
latory clothes, it is not likely the
leaders of that body will open the
door to take It in during the thirty
four remaining legislative days Of
the session.
ALL RECOGNIZE NECESSITY.
1t is possible that the delicate prob

AN AEROMARINE
 RECORD

A new worlds record in aerial transportation is announced in the official report concerning the operations of the giant fly ing cruiser Santa Maria, which was forwarded to the Bureau of AerOnautics of the Navy Depart, ment by Aeromarine AirWays of New York.
 The Santa Maira is the largest passenger carrying flying boat in the world in daily operation, 1t has accommodation for II pas. sengers, and crew of four.
 Since she was launched d lit. tie over year ago she has flown 10000 miles without single ac- cldent to her passengers
 The big flying cruiser is now at Peoria, LII, ready to start on the final leg of an aerial circum- navigation or the Eastern sec. tion of the United States, which when completed will aggregate more than ten thousand miles.
The McCarthy weekly news., 1921-10-08

The Santa Maria has already flown from Cuba by way of New York and Montreal, Buffalo. Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago to Peoria, carrying eleven pss sengers and their baggage.
 The flight included a circum- navigation of the Great Lakes
 She is now about to fly down the Mississippi River to New Or, leans and thence to Vera Cruz, Mexico, here she will take part in the aeronautical exposition. as the largesd craft of her kind in the world.
 Among her passengers on the forthcoming flight will be Con- gre>Sman F. c. Hicks, chai, man of the House Committees on Aero nauticS, and a representativ of the United States Army Air Service.
 The Santa Maria has two pull. man cabins with reclining chairs for her passengers. She is equip ped with two 400 horse power Liberty motors, and has a speed of approximately one hund red miles an hour, but generally cruises at 80 miles an honr.

The HOttentOt Venus :

purged of emotion unfit for female
bachelor of science, goes like this:
She noticed nothing till the pictures
began-that is, till the room was
darkened. Then two girls got up in
hurry. One Of them, who was Alice
Warenne, whispered to her as she
passed that Hilda Crowland didn't
feel very well. Alice was going out
with her and would look after her.
They went. At the close of the lee
ture, one of the attendants ap-
preached Miss Somers and said she
had been asked to tell her that the
two young ladies had gone back to
the school.
Upon this naturally follows the re-
port Of Constable Stewer of the Tor
mouth borough police. To this effect:
Was on duty $3.50 pm. on the quay;
motor launch from Italian yacht
came in and lay by No. steps; two
young ladies came In hurry and en-
tered launch; gentleman who had
been smoking cigar in vicinity thrust
paper and half-crown into my hand,
saying. Constable. wire that imme.
date: gentleman then took flying
leap into launch, which was already
showed off. and engine started;
launch steered for italian yacht; re-
turned to station to make report.
The paper when examined by in
these words: Lomas, Scotland Yard.
Two girls on Giulia. Me too.-F."
A telegram was sent About tea
time Scotland Yard telephoned to
know whether the yacht Giulia was
still at Tormouth. A sergeant hurry

to a cabin, and there dinner was
served him.
"And not bad dinner, either" said
Reggie, as he went on deck again.
It was dark and moonless night.
The yacht was meeting southerly
breeze and the first of the ocean swell
and grew lively. Reggie had the
deck to himself. He was nearly at

disturbed his humorous meditations.
