SILVER PRICES WERE ADVANCED
 BY PRESIDENT
Almost Six Cents More an Ounce-An Economist
 Describes Result

Washington. April 11--(UP1 -- The administration sought today to speed advancing commodity prices by paying more for domes@ tically mined silver. Silver prices were boosted overnight from 64.e4 cents to 71.11 cents an ounce. The action was expected to furnish the ps. chological effect for price in- creasee and expand the money is- suing base by increasing silver production.
 Although the action merely gives dom estic silver producers a 6 1-x cent increase in price, or less than $2,OOO, ,0O0 additional annually on present production, It's importance was believed to lie in its indication of the governments future moilte etary policy.

Some pleasant as dream;
We could not shun them if we would
They're part Of Gods great scheme
A narrow path that's hidden deep
Within the forests shade,
Will lead our weary footsteps to
A lovely sunlit glade.
An easy path that's smooth and wide
Where sweet wild flowers grow,
May lead us to a precipice
With naught but death below.
Sometimes path will lead uphill,
With briars all the way;
The splendor when we reach the top
Will all our toll repay.
Then, too, a pleasant by-path
May lure us from our course,
And bring us to the broad highway,
Of sorrow and remorse.
So, as we're journeying through life,
Let us remember this;
That oftentimes the toughest path
Will lead to greatest bliss.

PLAY CLOTHES have achieved
greater variety this season than ever
before. What with halters and shorts,
shorts and shirts, and frocks or wrap
around skirts to be worn over these
combinations, one would have thought
that designers had gone the limit in
providing comfort for the out-of-doors
girl. But here's something new the
culotte skirt! It's a divided skirt that
is attached to a chemise to keep it
down, and trimmed with gay cotton
plaid kerchief and belt. The costume
is grand for all sports and especially
for bicycle riding. This one is in a
"faded blue" denim.
