New York.-The machine age is about to take command of the worlds largest industry-the $23,- 900, 0,000,000-a-year restaurant busi- ress. Hungry patrons will push various buttons representing items on the menu. their orders will be transmitted electrically to kitchen robots which will prepare their food, deliver it, collect the bills, and carry off the dishes.
 Inefficient humans will have no part in the transactions. There will be no cooks, walters, bus boys. dish washers or cashiers. There will be no tipping and no arguments. If ttere is anybody at all behind the counter it will be modern "kitch- en mechanic"-an engineer to wield an oil can when the, wheat cake machine is behind schedule, or a monkey wrench to tighten up the Omelette mill

fire that zoomed off in the dark.

cried Baby Bunty.
There goes anotherl" shouted
Buster "Hurray!" Up went more
fire skyrockets, a dozen of them,
and then Uncle Wiggily came out
of the bushes while the bunny chn-
dren clapped their paws in delight.
But, Wiggy, my dear" said his
wife, II thought you were not to
have any real burning fireworks,
such as skyrockets, this Fourth"
Those skyrockets couldn't burn

Longears. Il got a lot Of stones
and then my friends the fireflies or
lightning bugs clustered on them.
I threw the stones, with the fire
flies on them, high up in the air.
When they were as far as they could
go the lightning bugs flew off the
stones and scattered like sparks and
stars from real skyrockets"
How wonderful" said Baby Bun

But what made them hiss, Unkie

several cracking sounds, such as
might be made by those cute little
old-fashioned real firecrackers that
cost a penny pack.
Baby Bunty and the others lis
tened with all their ears and they
looked surprised. They had not be-
lieyed the flowers could crack. But
they heard little popping noises.
Only Bunty said:
u don't see any smoke or fire
mo. there isn't any" spoke Uncle
Wiggily with a laugh.
And that swapping sound came
from your pocket" went on Jingle.
She noticed that Uncle Wiggily had
one paw in his pocket and in the
other paw he held the blossom fire
crackers.
"Yes, the noise came from my
pocket" said the rabbit gentleman
with a laugh, for that's where the

crackers and snaps are. Look here!'
Like little Jack Horner pulling his
thumb with a plum out from the
Christmas pie, Uncle Wiggily pulled
his paw from his pocket and in the
paw were a number OF sweet crack
ers and ginger snaps.
II bought these for you as treat
because I thought you might be dis
appointed at getting flower fire
crackers instead of bang bang ones,
said Mr.. Longears. do you want
them?"
"Oh, yes!" shouted all the bunny
boys and girls, and Bunty asked:
What made the noises like little
firecrackers, Unkie Wig?"
Il broke of pieces of the hard
| crackers and snaps in my pockets,
was the answer. Il think it's a lot
of fun to have the kind of firecrack-
ers you can eat and that won't burn
you"
oh, yes!' agreed Jingle, Jangle
and all the Others. And Bunty said
Nov we can have a picnic in the
woods"
So they ate the ginger snaps and
| sweet crackers and looked at the
firecracker flowers and were quite
happy. But Buster, a boy rabbit
said to his father:
81 think we ought to have some
| fireworks before Saturday, which is
! the Fourth of July. Maybe it's al
right not to have firecrackers that
might burn us, but wouldn't it be
all right for you to shoot off some
skyrockets?"

rabbit father. But maybe / car

IT'S BUYING TINE

GO much has been written about what
~ must be done to overcome depression
and return American business to normal
cy, that it seems rather egotisical to add
anything to it.
But one of the best suggestions we have
met is contained in Retailing" trade
paper for mercantile establishments,
published in New York.
Retailing" argues that returned pros
perity can come only with the return of
buying and that now is the time to buy.
insofar as the buying public is concerned.
Prices are so low in comparison with the
past few years, that none can afford not
to take advantage of bargains which are
offered in every line. On the part of the
selling public it is time to advertise to
solicit business, and to use every means
to bring before the buyers the opportun-
ity open to them.
Goods on a merchants shelves do him
no good and they do the public no good.
Only when the goods are moved do they
play any part in our economic situation.
chant must order to replenish his stocks.
In doing this he makes business for the
mills, factories and those employed by
them
The way combination of attractive
prices and substantial articles works, is
illustrated by retailing" with the ac-
count of the experience of a Massachu-
,o1,
mill was struggling along with re-
duced force and short hours when a large
New York firm discovered that the mill
could offer splendid towel at price
that would enable the firm to pass them
on to the buying public at an unheard
of price. The firm placed an order for
a large amount of towels.
The mill Immediately had to increase
its force to three complete shifts, oper-
ating "a hours a day. The towels were
disposed of so rapidly that the firm buy
ing them decided it had been too conserv-
ative in its initial order and promptly
reordered. The second quantity was in
sufficient and the mill is now booked
solid with orders until after Labor day,
while the firm purchasing the towels can
not supply the demand for them.
The town in which the mill is located,
is experiencing a new lease of life. The
towels proved to be only one of several
excellent articles the mill makes.
Retailing" emphasizes that this single
instance can be repeated in many lines.
if the public will buy and the merchant
will work
There is great deal to it, TOO. Lo-
cally prices have never been SO attractive
as at present 1t is possible to purchase
at prices unheard of since before the
World War 1t is certainty that every
family in Ell Centre can save money by
purchasing now, even if what they pur-
chase cannot be used for some time to
come And it might be added that the
stores getting the business these days,
are the stores that are advertising.

THE "WTNNIE MAE"
w. c. COSTELLO
Manager

THE United States have every reason to
be proud of the remarkable achieve
ment of the winnie Mae, who proved
herself to be the flyingest flapper that
ever flapped wing when she settled
down on the runway at Roosevelt Field
late yesterday.
A little over week before, the ''Win-
lie Mae" had left that same field, bound
for trip around the world. Few thought
that the attempt would be successful.
1t had been done before, but the winnie
Mae" sought to reduce the flying time
of the Graf Zeppelin, which made the cir
cult in % days.
The Crafts course was longer than the
one the Winnie Mae" took, but the diff
ficulties faced by the latter were just as
serious as those which confronted the
larger vessel. Eight days, 15 hours and
81 minutes had passed from the time the
Winnie Mae" took off until she settled
down on Roosevelt Field. In that time
she had gone through extreme heat, ex-
IRENE cold, fog, rain, wind and all the
other drawbacks which nature likes to
throw at intrepid airships.
There was no large organization back
of the winnie Mae, such as the army
flyers had backing them when they made
the first trip around the globe seven
years ago. She just bobbed along, get
ting supplies as she needed them and de-
pending upon her own resources and
luck to get her out of any difficulties she
might encounter.
What started off in the minds of a
great many as lust another one of those
crazy aviators trying to drown himself
in the Atlantic" has turned out to be the
greatest areonautical adventure that the
flying world has yet shown US.
The progress Of the winnie Mae" has
been closely watched by millions, ever
since she proved that she can do things
by landing safely in England.
The reader may object that this is all
about the winnie Mae" with nothing be-
ing said about the men who flew her.
Well, dear reader, just try yourself to
write something about Wiley Post and
Harold Gatty. 1t can't be done. We've
tried and couldn't find words fine enough
to express what we think of them. The
best we can do is to say they are a couple
of real men and couple of real flyers.
They certainly are.
