Many Men Have Heeded My Advice
The earlier part of the week, in a personal message to men, I admonished you to supply your
clothing needs NOW—not only for present use. but also to take care of your future requirements.
Our One Thousand Suit and Overcoat Campaign offers the opportunity. Clothing next Fall will
be at least 35 per cent, higher. Naturally you are asking why do we REDUCE prices in the face of
these abnormal conditions? Our answer is, that, while we realize that it would pay us to carry the
goods over, it is decidedly against our business policy, and we feel that we would not be playing fair
with you. We prefer at this time to clean up our stocks and give our customers the benefit of RE
DUCED PRICES, and I know that it will pay in the end.
Very sincerely yours, •

BROOM PRICES
MUCH TOO HIGH;
SELLERS BLAMED
Housewives Are Paying Too
Much Profit, Snvs
Philadelphia, Pa. The "high
cost of cleanliness" is laid directly
t.t the door of the retailer by Super
intendent Frederick Mills, of the
Pennsylvania Working Home for
Blind Men, at 3518 Lancaster ave
nue, who declared that housewives
paying ninety cents and a dollar for
I rooms are paying too much to the
dealer. ' •
Mr. Mills is presiding over a con
vention of Superintendents of Work
ing Homes for Blind Men, which has
for its object the standardizing of
broom production throughout the
United States.
Once Upon a Time i
There was a time—before the war ,
—when the housewife's common
weapon of health and defense could '
be purchased for twenty-five and I
thirty-five cents. These same classes 1
of brooms are being sold at ninety
cents and one dollar, respectively,
which has caused many complaints. 1
When asked the cause for the air
plnmng prices, Mr. Mills said: ,
"We used to buy broomroin for
589 and S9O per ton. The drought 1
j ear before last, however, cut the t
prediction in half, and the quality (
wr.s interior. Then the price went .
up to SIOO. It has since gone to
5250. the price we paid last year. '
"Handles, because of the great
demand for lumber, have jumped .
from S2O to s3s' per 1,000; wire,
from 3% to 6V4 cents per pound; 1
linen twine, from 28 to 65 and 70 i
cents per pound, and laboj- has in- ,
creased forty per cent. The cost in ,
production, therefore, has increased ,
from 100 to 150 per cent. (
75 Cents a Fair Price
"We now actually sell brooms at (
$7.25 per dozen, or about 60 cents (
each to the retailer. When the con- .
sumer pays 90 cents she is paying ,
an exorbitant price. Seventy-flvo -
cents is a fair price to pay. ,
"A good broom gives more value .
than any other household commod- !
ity, compared with its cost. One .
broom properly cared for, will last
six months; two brooms, used o.'.- ,
t< mutely, will last a year and a hair.
The housewife must learn to con
serve her brooms by standing them
on the handles or hanging them on
the wall."
The Pennsylvania home is the
fourth largest broom shop in tne
world and employs 116 blind men,
whose earnings last year aggregated
s.*!.r,TaS. .-Sixty-six per cent, of the
men me more than 50 years of age
and twenty-five per cent, are mote
than GO. Last year the plant used
500 tons of broom corn and manu
factured 10,000 dozen brooms. Elev
en thousand dozen brooms have
been furnished to the Government
.since April.
Nature Fixes No Age
„ Limit For Those Who
Lire a Careful Life
"Three score years and ten,"
tradition says, is the span of a hu
man life. This must be divided into
three periods to include prepara
ftor, efficiency and decay, eacn pe
riod lasting nearly twenty-five years.
With the athlete, it is still more se- !
vere. Few men at thirty-five, it is I
said, have the reserve vitality and
endurarlce that they had at twenty - I
five. Therefore the edict has Rotw |
forth that at thirty-five the athlete: |
must iet up in violent competitive
work and gradually back out of the
front ranks.
But there is no scientific evidence
to show that this is necessary, says
Popular Science Monthly. The hu
n'an Icdy is simply an assemblies
cr cells, which must be kept active,
without being overstrained and
nourished without being overfed, in
order that they may be able to re
sist the attacks of microscopic ene
mies which cause disease and decay.
Under favorable conditions thes<
colls will live indefinitely without
showing signs of rtge or loss of vital
ity. Therefore the conclusion is
reached that the "three score years
and ten" are not fixed by any* nat
ural law, but rather by th? con
ditions under which men live and
by their personal habits. The ath
letic champion, theh, who lives un- I
Jer the best hygienic conditions and I
observes the law of temperance In
all things and at all times, should I
be able to "sit tight" on his pedestal !
so long as ho desires.

PRIORITY FOR
FARM MACHINES
Patton Asks the United States
government to Help Out
Pennsylvania Farmers
mission
asked to
can be done
about getting priority shipments for
fertilizer materials.
"We have asked the Government
to help in getting farm machinery
to the farmers of the state as soon
as possible," said Mr. Patton to-day.
"There is no question but that farm*
machinery of the labor-saving type
is the thing which this state needs
and will need. We have to get it
to the farms soon if we are to have
the maximum production. The
tractor people say they are selling
many tractors, but that delivery is a
problem."
It is believed at the Capitol that
the difficulties over seed corn, of
which there is a great scarcity in
the state, will be overc.ome at an
early day and that there will be seed
for most of the farmers who will
be ready for it.
Going Right Ahead.—Officers of
the State Public Safety Committee
and state officials are planning for
immediate establishment of employ
ment agencies under the joint fed
eral and state plan in a dozen or
more cities of the state and a spe
cial effort to meet requirements for
shipbuilding will be made, while
things will be gotten ready to help
in the solution of the farm labor
problem, the biggest one which now
confronts the authorities. The num
ber of people placed through the
employment agencies has risen from
3,967 in October to 10,793 in Janu
ary. The plan adoptod in this state
and which is now being applied by
Edgar C. Felton to other states is
to be extended throughout every
county if possible.
The survey of food, fuel and other
material available in case of a ca
lamity will be undertaken as soon as
possible.
Militia Officers.—Governor Brum
baugh has appointed Clyde D. Wil
cox, Corry, as lieutenant-colonel in
the Reserve Militia and assigned him
to the Third Infantry. C. C. Hol
land, OreensburK, has been appoint
ed captain and assigned to Company
