A Business Week survey shows that while department
store sales (prime index of consumer purchasing power) are
running 2 per cent under 1937 levels in terms of dollar vol-
ume, they are 5 per cent higher in terms of merchandise

were compelled to the close, because of strikes.

The congregation then retired to
the Sunday School Room where a
{great surprise was in store for all.
Four of the class rooms were fur-
nished in antique furniture repre-
senting the life and the customs of
the Presbyterians 100 years ago. A
living room, a dining room, a bed
room and a kitchen. The walls
were decorated with old pictures,

found in place on the living room
table. Living models dressed in
costumes of a century ago occupied
these rooms. The most attractive
of all being the young bride, and
the old man assisting the old lady
who was busy at the spinning wheel.
On the dining room table there was
a large birthday with the
numerals 100 at the top, and sur-
rounded with 100
Besides the living models with their
century old gowns, many of the
men and Jadies were dressed in the
costmes worn by the Presbyterians
100 years ago. It was a picturesque
sight to see these people come into
the church walking up the aisle
by twos and threes and taking their
places in the pews even as did the
people in those early days.
There were capacity audiences at
all the services. Refreshments were
served at the Monday evening so-
cial. On each
