"SAY 1T WITH FLOWERS"

n. P. Lindberg, originator Of the
slogan, Say it with flowers" is
killed in an auto accident in North
Dakota. AS you suspected he was
florist.
His famous four-word slogan has
sold more flowers than any 10000
florists that ever lived. And the
slogan was not gracefully thought
ont. Lindberg coined it off-hand,
almost absent-mindedly, in conver-
sation at a national florists conven-
tion.
That is what a gambler calls
chance. 1t is chance, the sudden
appearance of the unexpected, that
shapes our destinies and makes
life interesting. Never get dis
couraged. Chance probably has
something better in store.

ROBBERS TAKE A.
LAWTON GROCERS' SCALES

LAWTON 49, The grocery store of
William Snowton at ll5 North First
street was broken into last night and
a set of Simpson computing scales
were stolen. The robbery was not dis.
covered until this morning.
Entrance to the store was gained by
breaking in u window pane. and reach.
ing through the broken pane to unlock
the frame. The scales were setting by
the window and since nothing else
was molested 1t Is thought that the
robbers probably did not enter the
building but reached for the scales from
the outside.

COAL OUTLOOK

The soft coal situation begins to
look better for the family with an
empty coal bin.
The mines are turning out about
100000 tons a week. The figure
would be 100000 tons if the rail-
roads were able to furnish enough
gondola and hopper coal cars, and
il the mines had the orders.
The actual shortage in produc-
ton is not as big as most people
imagine. From the first OF the
wear to October 10, the country's
production Of bituminous (soft) coal
totaled about 100000 tons.
Roughly, this was only 24OOO.OOO
tons less than was mined during
the corresponding period OF last
year.
Two things are helping counter
act this shrotage. They are:
First: Exports OF soft coal so
lar this year, compared with the
corresponding period OF previous
wears. are about 100000 tons less
than in 1921 and 100000 tons less
than in 1920.
Second: The country will enter
1923 without the customary 3d.
100000 tons OF soft coal normally
carried over into the new year as a
surplus or reserve in bins.
Anthracite (hard) coal is bound
to be scarce nearly everywhere this
winter.
The hard coal mines so far this
year have produced only about 5l,-
100000 tons, against 100000 tons
in the corresponding period OF 1921.
The real danger of a soft coal
shortage lies in the fact that many
who customarily burn hard coal
will have 10 use soft coal.
However, with exports low and
corporations buying hand-to-mouth
instead OF building up big reserve
stocks, the outlook is that the coun
try will be able to pull through
the winter without any acute short
age in the average community.
In a rough way, it looks as il
America will have enough coal in
the furnace but none TOO much in
the bin.
The winter market is developing
as matter OF buying in small
quantities when needed, same as
sugar and flour.
The northwest. which is always
the danger spot when 4 coal short
age threatens. SO far this season
has received by Great Lakes. route
about 100000 tons OF soft coal
below normal. Ii is too late TO
catch up with this shortage, so the
deficit will have to be shipped by
railroads.
Statistically the general coal situ-
alton does not look aarming unless
the market is manipulated from the
inside or the buyers stampede.

MUCH GOLD

Eighteen billion dollars worth is
the worlds total production OF gold
since Columbus discovered Amer
lea.
Only eight billion dollars of this
exists as money or locked up in
banks and the treasures OF nations.
An unknown quantity is being
carried about in the form OF watch
cases and other ornaments TO satisfy
humanity's vanity.
Possibly third OF the gold mined
since 1892 has disappeared. All
things come from the soil. All
things return to it. Small wonder,
land is the average PERSONS idea
OF the best investment.
