one living in the suburbs had n chicken
house and ? garden. Now she is only
a consumer'. !
"Price's will continue to rise for Sev
ern! months probably until the first

unless- all Oib housekeepers unite to
save at o)I times and boycott the high
priced foods.. This food situation is not
gettiug. better, add won't get better un
til the housekeepers get their heads to
gether and determine to save and allow
the stocks to accumulate."
Mrs. Wilson urged nil the women liv

for the city markets. A number of the
women confessed to small chicken yards
and great satisfaction at the egg-a-day

THE view above shows how, inThe Cheney,
the acoustic principles of the violin and pipe
organ have been adapted to tone reproduction
for the first time.
These wonderful improvement which give
The Cheney tones of surpassing purity and rich'
ness, are protected by basic patents. They
reach new heights in tonal beauty- set The
Cheney in a class apart.
Note particularly the violin resonator, with its
plates at top and bottom carved from seasoned
spruce, the"same wood from which violin are
made.- These plates vibrate as tones pass
through them, adding color value and sweet'
ness.
And for the same reason that a violin grows
sweeter with age, it is also true of The
Cheney that
