Cedarville is not the only town that is going to pay more for street oil this year. We notice by the Dayton News that th£ oil being put on the streets in that city is costing 10 1-2 cents. According to the New Car­ lisle b'un, the oil in that city will cost 7 1-2 cents, the freight, demurrage and labor fo r putting it on. New Car­ lisle and Dayton then are paying the same as oil coits here. Loo high just now, but considering the b lefits it will be cheap this summer. The number of automobiles driven through this place by dealers indicates the great handicap that dealers have in getting shipments. Almost every day new machines go through from Detroit and Toledo.

A sale like this is a simple question of mathematics. First we purchase the finest silks— the very cream of the most fashionable silks for the May Sale. Then we mark them at prices that bring re^l money-in-the bank savings to the woman who buy them. Could anything be simple than this explanation of why the sale is such a success? There is every good kind o f silk that a woman wants— taffetas, crepe de chines, satins, foulards, niessaluies, Georg­ ettes, tub silks, pongees—every weave und every color. And not one yard o f the wonderful assemblage o f May Sale Silks but what is substantially under the regular price. -H ow can facts be clearer than; that? IIow can a sale be ‘ truer and cleaner and more satisfying than to get the finest o f merchandise, and to sell it at a real saving? Patriotic* true-blue American women are. wearing silks because their country asks it. And the May Silk Sale renders a real service by supply­ ing the silks at rock-bottom prices. Our invitation is out to see the sale for yourself. Silks for.the bride, silks for informal afternoons, silks for sport wear, for general utility, for skirts, for coats, for suits,' for dance and dinner gowns, etc, - The Public Is Shopping With a New Keenness'for Values Lethargy and indifference are gone.

AMERICANSAVINGSWill MEASUREWHEATEXPORTS . “Wo have already exported the whole of the surplus of “the 1917 wheat harvest, over and above the normal de­ mands of our own population. It, is ^necessary, therefore, for the food ad­ ministration to restrict'export of wheat so as to retain in the United States sufficient supplies to carry our owH people tlhtll the next harvest. "Therefore all exports of wheat from now forward are limited entirly to volume of saving made by the Amer­ ican people in their consumption of wheat and wheat products, "We continued wheat shipments for December as far as our situation al­ lowed, but even with all the conserva­ tion made we were still unable to load Several hundred thousand tons of food­ stuffs urgently required by the allied nations during the month of December alone."
