SHOP EARLY! SHOP EARLY! IS CRY OF CITY STORE HEADS
Innumerable reasons can be advanced why people should shop early, but no reason why they should neglect their shopping until the last day or so before Christmas, say Richmond retail merchants.
But 23 more shopping days remain and for the sake of the overworked
clerk, the tired delivery man, the floor
walker, the irritated merchant, the
zealous traffic guardian and the
Christmas shoppers themselves, people are urged to take advantage of the remaining daysand wind up quickly the
lob of buying the Christmas gins.
H. C. Hasemeier, of the Boston Store
says that early shopping saves the shopper a great deal of inconvienence, poor service, a larger stock to choose
from, and the trying ordeal of being
jostled around by the ever-ln-a-nurry last minute shoppers.
Experienced clerks are !ew this Christmas as the prospect of clerking in a dry goods store does not hold the
attraction to girls of today that it used to hold and for this reason Richmond stores may be short banded at
the time when clerks are badly need ed.
Last year the buying public of Richmond heeded the appeal of the government and in a measure, did their shopping early, but last year did not see the amount of buying that local mer
chants nredict will be done this year,
It is thought that local stores will
only be kept open after supper dur ing the 3 days preceding Christmas in
6tead of the customary week.

WAR TELEPHONE RATES WILL CONTINUE; RULING (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 26 Present telephone rates of the Central Union Telephone Company will continue in effect in Indiana until the public service commission has made a finding on tbe petitions for an increase in Indianapolis.

About 30 cities and towns are provided with telephone service in Indiana by the Central Union telephone company. Some time ago petitions were filed for all, asking permission to increase the rates.

THE FIRST TYPEWRITER. So long ago as 1714 a patent for a typewriter was taken out in England bv Henry Mill: it was called a "ma
chine for impressing letters singly and progressively as in writing, whereby
all writing may be ingrossed in paper
so exact as not to be distinguished from print." His machine was very clumsy, and it was not until more than
a century later (1S29) that anything further was attempted. Then the first American typewriter, called a "type-
grapher," was patented by W. A. Burt

PEST DAMAGE
Everyone who has a garden detests
a mole everyone, perhaps, but a cer
tain woman gardener out In Bryan
county, Okla. This ingenious person, who reported her experience to the United States departmnt of agriculture, puts thm to work. A number of these pests undermined her garden this season, digging diminutive tunnels here, there, and everywhere. It would have discouraged the average woman; it didn't disturb this one. She started a little irrigation plant of her own, using its tunnels as irrigation ditches. She filled the tunnels with water repeatedly, until the garden was well watered, and finally drove the moles off the premises.

In remembrance of our dear daughter and sister, Lova Hutchens, who passed away one year ago, Nov. 25. !
The month of November again is here, To us the saddest of the year. Sad was the hour and sad the day, - When our dear Lova passed away. And now we can but think of one Who in her youthful beauty died. The fair young blossom, That grew up and faded by our side. In the cold moist earth we laid her. When the forest cast the leaf. And we wept that one so beautiful. Should have a life so brief. The golden gates were opened. A gentle voice said come; And without a farewell spoken. Our darling Lova entered home.
And when the evening shades are falling. And we are sitting all alone. Our hearts cry out . in bitter longing, Oh if she only could come home. But we think we hear her saying,
"Weep not for me my loved ones dear; Short was my life, long is my rest, j To take me home God thought it i best". I I Sadly missed by parents, sisters, ! relatives and friends. !
