make u sharp reduction in the price of bread without incurring a loss. It may be that the maintenance ,of high prices for turkey can be expiuiucU in some such manner. The only other ptssible explanation, it seems, that dealers, especially in large cities, propose to 'profiteer. The Thanksgiving tVast is hardly complete without turkey; but sensible people will put .sentiment asM if it entails an expenditure that they ojinnot afford, a;d will eat. chicken instead.

ENEOLL! whiTh6h American Kod C'-ss the one organization Much has never been called upon to make an explanation of its stewardship to the public. i,s affairs are conducted in a manner that commands the highest respect and inspires the fullest confidnecefu its ability to handle economically and effectively auv situation which presents itself. ' ' - "Much of the wcrk which is being done bv the Ived Cross is for the former service men who are still unable to take up the work laid down to enter the service of their country. This relief work will b recessary until governmental agencies are operatinf in a more effective way in the interests of the soldiers or the World War. The American Red Cross is doing a wonderful work in carrying relief and cheer to many thousansd in Russia and other sections of Europe. This relief vork will be necessary for many months, and American money will be required in large sums if the work is to succeed. In the interests of the needy who are being sought out abroad by the American Red CrcTs and for the benefit of those persons at home who are the victims of untoward conditions, the Red Cross "makes its plea fcr re-enlistments in the army of contributors to this gracious work. May it never be said of the Re-1 Cross that it had to beg for the support which should be given freely.

HAMMOND HIGH'S UNFORTUNATE EXPERIENCE The disastrous football season which ended at Michigan City last Saturday afternoon when Hammond high was defeated by the biggest score ever visited upon a Hammond team since foe tnall became an institution is deplored by every friend of athletics in the city and there is widespread criticism of the school board for the system of coaching or lack cf coach that permitted such an athletic debacle. iiuct the school authorities permitted Coach Veenker U: go to Clary after developing football at Hammond high until the school was recognized far and wide as one at the athletic pinnacle, football and athletics in general have gone from bad to worse. The coaching tins year has not been such as tc turn out anything but mediocre team and alumni of the school point out that the team this year has experienced a censecutive string of defeats which has hurt the prestige of Hammond high and dispirited the morale of the student body. Hammond's big public school is worthy of a better fate. It is entitled to the best system of coaching there is. Winning tjctball is an excellent advertisement for the school and the town. Hammond always has been accutsomed to athletic victories and defeat is painful. Education should consist not only in the development of the mind, but also of the body and the spirit and football has come to be universally recognized as a proper physical development process. In all schools and colleges today that are properly recognized football is a part cf the curricula and rationally and wisely developed inculcates desirable school spirit- In Hammond instead football has been a wet blanket on the student body during the succession of disastrous defeats which have just passed Into history, and which have lead business and professional men supporting the school to ask what is the matter- Those wh oahve seen the Hammond high football team play this year do not say that It has not made gallant effort to win, but that it. has riot had proper training and support and hence been poorly equipped to do battle with its rivals from neighboring cities. It is to be hoped that next year things wijl be different.

The

"TURKEY DAY" DINNERThe intimation that although the market will -e well supplied with turkeys this year the cost of the Thanksgiving dinner will be scarcely less than n was last year is disappointing; yet it will not greatly surprise those who have made a study of the retail market for foodstuffs. For it teems as if in the case of cefaain coromo&ties tiie ordinary laws of supply and demand do not apply. The fault probably lies In the system of distribution. It is not the material itself, but the expense of handling it, that frequently makes up the larger part of its cost It has been Said that if wheat should be sold for next tonothingit would be still impossible for bakers to

USE OF UTILITY IS INCREASING. The tremendous Increase in the use of public

utility service, which has taken place in the last ten years, is graphically shown by a comparison of some figures reported by the U. S. census department. The (population of the United States from 1910 to 1P20 inJ creased slightly less than 15 per cent, but in this same

ten-year period the number of electric customers of central station electric light and power companies increased mere than 250 per cent and the amount of electrical energy sold in K. W- H. increased over

1 .150 per cent. It is stated by the census department 'that this great growth ia the electrical distribution was not confined to any particular section of this country, but was distributed about equally throughout I the United States.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute.

Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets the substitute for calomel are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver Is almost instantaneous. These little olive-covered tablets are the reputt of Ir. Edwards' determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the 'ood that calomel docs, but have no bad after effects. They don't iniure the teeth like stromer liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and Quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel somctim esplays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, bet Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place. Headaches, "dullness" and that la sty feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Kdwards" Olive Tablets when you foel "loay" and "heavy," They "clear" clouded brain and "perkup" the spirits. 15c and 30c Advertisement.
