White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1927-01-28

Active protest has been entered by
Detroit retail meat dealers against the
practice of the Ford Motor Company
of letting the general public buy meat
and provisions at its non-profit shar-
ing stores, which 1t maintains for the
benefit of its employees. 1t is claimed
by the Detroit retailers that in adj
dition to handling meats without
profit the Ford people are able to buy
from packers at a greatly reduced
price under which the trade is sup
piled, which gives Ford additional adj
vantages. Many retail meat shops it
is claimed have been forced out of
business through the Ford competi-
ton. In answer to these protests
Ford is reported to have offered jobs
at $500 day to anyone forced out
Of business through his competition.

one-sided arrangement most womenl
find becoming. The vestee effect in
innumerable variations continues a
favorite in the mode. So straight, so
slim, so exceedingly clever, these
frocks, yet so simple to cut and make !
Surely the great designers are at last
playing into the hands of the woman
with fingers deft at the work of
fashioning her own frocks! Even al
tyro might without too great daring
attempt the pictured frock-yet it's
fresh from the boulevards of Paris,
and from New York's own Fifth
Avenue. - Copyrighted Fashionable

.HAND|WORK SALES
AID TO VETERANS
Annual Exhibition Purchases
Net $7O0 for Walter Reed
Pati3r' ';-HeIp Asked.

The annual exhibition sale OF ar
ticles made by the patients of the oc-
cupa tional therapy department of
Walter Reed Hospital, which was held
last Friday. netted approximately
$500. according to Miss Inez Borland,
aide in that department. The exhibit
ton room, i'm Building 95. was well
filled from the opening at 10 am.
until noon and again from 6 pm.
until the display closed al 10 O'Clock
that night.
Although it is not generally known,
sale Of these articles is made through
out the year and orders are taken by
the patients, who make them as or
dered. Proceedssfrom the sales go to
the maker and thus give him chance
to earn while he is In the hospital.
The cause Is deserving and 1t is the
desire of those in charge of the work
that the public be notified of the
purpose.
Besides giving the patient a source
OF income, the largest item lies in
the fact that as they work they are
helping to recover from their injuries.
The patients are put in departments
where the work that they do will
strengthen the injured muscles.
In the pottery room the patients
make candlesticks. ash trays. flower
vases and nearly every product made
in pottery plants. However, this is
but one of the various sections, others
being jewelry, toys, leather, weav-
ing. woodwork. gesso work, block
printing, batik, basket and art work.
Many choice articles can be purchase
which would make select Christmas s
gifts.

Women Lead Men in Shop-Early
Drive, Says Merchants Official

Mr. Shaw. las a result. when the
stores finally decided to meet the de-
mand for earlier gift buying, and ar
ranged to display their Christmas
stocks earlier in the holiday season,
the adept woman shoppers were quick
to take advantage of the opportunity.
Last years figures show. however
that the sweep of the new movement
apparently has failed to penetrate the
consciousness of most men. They still
put off their necessary Christmas pur
chases until the last possible moment,
and as result have much smaller
stocks from which to select their gifts
IF the men of Washington would
take time now to do their holiday
shopping they would find the stores in
much better shape to meet their needs
than they will be In the week prior
to Christmas, when holiday stocks are
somewhat depleted and salespeople are
too rushed to give the attention that
they can now"

The woman shopper. often maligned
because of her procrastinating tend
encies, has it all over her husband
when it comes to shopping early for
Christmas, according to Edward u.
Shaw. secretary of the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association.
A survey of shopping conditions in
this and other cities. conducted by the
local merchants, shows that the bulk
of the last-minute Christmas shopping
is done by men, Mr.. Shaw states.
Women are much more expert in

ANOTHER GREAT GsI;sER IN
BYRAN FIELD FIRST DISCOVERY
IN EMBAR BLACK OIL SAND

The Ohio Oil company drilling
at its location in the Byron field,
has just encountered another gas
sand at a depth in excess of 5000
feet. which is pouring forth gas at
the rate of about 40.00O,0 900 cubic
feet every twenty-four hours.
According to an article in the
Powell Tribune. Oil men familiar
with conditions in the Rock noun
tain region, say this we'll is the
first one to produce gas in any ap.
preciable quantities in the Embar
formation. Heretofore, the Embar
has been considered a source of
black oil production only. This gas
is issuing from the casing head at
a temperature of 10 degrees above
zero. and a pressure of 1900 pounds
to the square inch. This gas con-
tains some hydrogen sulphide,
monty described as similar to rotten
eggs. Powell had a taste of this
element in the gas some weeks
ago, when another gas sand was en-
countered in the same well. The
population about Powell has had
during the past few days a few
whiffs of the odor from this gas
flow when the wind has been favor
able to carrying it through the at
mosphere from Byron.
Encountereing so much gas in
virgin ssands SUI the towns of
the Big Horn basin a never failing
supply of natural gas for years to
come, but the gas from the lower
sand which contains hydrogen sui
phide, will have to be treated be-
fore being fit for domestic use.
1t is the intention OF the Ohio
Oil company to pipe this gas away
from the well a couple of hundred
feet and set it afire. Such will
provide great illumination in the
skies about Byron during the dur
alton of the est and should be
plainly visible as far as Powell.
