There are many reasons why
lower prices are features from
time to time. In explaining to
the buying public why they ex-
ist for day or week, a mer-
chant makes his business meth
od an open secret between him
- 4 and his customer. A bond
- lautaal confidence is thus es-
1iiIhed. and the buyer discov-
80 that it is worth his while

tance with price values.
No merchant buys advertis-
ing space to attract customers
to his store for one time.
Money spent for advertising
pays only when the merchant or
manufacturer makes a friend OF
the buyer--a repeat customer.
When, therefore. a special value
Is thus frankly advertised, 1t is
because there is the right kind
OF merchandise in other lines to
offer customers once they come
to purchase.
That is why 1t is always wise
20 go where special prices are
frankly emphasized.
Again the value OF the frank
statement quoted lies not alone
In the lower prices it made pos.
sible and the other interesting
stocks to which It attracted buy
ers, but in its recognition OF the
fact that truth is the strongest
ally which advertising has.

WAITING LIST
Mothers Pension Commits
sion Grants I and Dis
continues 3
NEED URGENT IN
NEW CASTLE co

At meeting OF the Mothers PEN
sion Commission in Dover on Fri
day, two new pensions were granted.
one in Sussex county and one in New
Castle county. Although there is a
waiting list OF fifty-nine mothers in
New Castle county. it was impossible
to grant more than one pension at
this time. this one being available
owing to the remarriage OF one Wild
owed mother receiving pension.
All the present appropriation grant
ed for New Castle county is in use.
and unless the Legislature Increases
the amount, it will not be possible to
grant any more pensions in this
county.
A bill now before the Legislature
asks that the appropriation for New
Castle county be doubled. in order to
take care OF the waiting list now ex-
listing, and also OF others who will
apply within the next two years.
The purpose of the Mothers PEN
sion law is to aid the needy mothers
of young children to maintain, sup
port and educate their children.
Three pensions in the whole State
were discontinued on account Of the
mothers having remarked. Several
cases were discussed in which spe-
cial needs had arisen. Of a tempo
rary nature. which could not be met
by the small amounts of the regular
pension. The law as It now stands
enables the commission to give, for
a limited period. in cases Of sickness
or other unusual circumstances, a
larger sum, at its discretion. One
woman whose house was burned to
the ground was given beds and
stove. Five were given money for
clothing, unemployment OF the
mother or OF some grown child who
has been a wage-earner having Gre
ated an unusual circumstance. Three
were decreased in amount, owing to
a child having reached the age of
IA, at which the pension must cease
If he has reached a grade at which
he can secure a general work certi-
fcate. Money was granted for eye

one. Three mothers received official
censure for truancy OF their children
and a warning.
New applications are received in
New Castle county at an average
rate of seven per month. Of which
about one-half prove. on investiga-
tion, to be in need OF aid. In Kent
and Sussex counties. applications
can be handled so soon as they come
in. as there is no waiting list. The
total number OF pensions now given
in the State is 166. OF these, 81 are
in New Castle county, 26 in Kent
and So in Sussex.
The commission also discussed the
need Of a clerk to assist the execu-
tive secretary. whose investigations
cover the whole State The volume
Of the work is three times what it
was when the present administration
appropriation OF $4,000 was given.
The Legislature is asked to increase
this to $4,000 per annum.
