magi, c‘ . 7-. .. .‘n ‘4: g PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH g g CHRISTIAN SCIENCE g PAGE SIX OUR OWN CITY As Highland Park increases in size. adding stores and whole streets of stores, as it has done in the past few years, the position of the laggard who leaves his Christmas shopping till the last minute grows less problematical. If the Chicago Stores become so congested that it is impossible to find your way around, there is no end of stores in Highland Park, and they have all the ad- vantage of being on one floor, of having display windows which advertise their wares from the street, sales people in plenty to at- tend to your wants, and an atmosphere of sanity which will not be seen in Chicago again in many a day. Highland Park has been neglected like the prophet in his own land. It has expanded gradually right under our eyes until we do not realize its ,size nor comprehend its advantages. Every year it offers newzopportunities, new Shops, and furnishes more good reasons for the prospective buyer to spend his money at home. And who is in control of the butter and egg supply ‘.’ The packers control at least one-half of the entire market, therefore they may be said to be in control of the market. To make the case simple. we shall take Highland Park, and suppose that it derives all of its egg and butter supply from the surrounding farms. There are many small dealers in this town, We will say, but there is also one very large concern. The small houses buy and sell their eggs and butter as far as they will go. The large house, however, withholds its supply from the market, does not sell, and thereby holds up just one half the entire supply of but- ter and eggs for the City of Highland Park. And what effect does this have on the market? It has the same effect as a genu- ine scarcity of supply. It presents the appearance of a scarcity of those products and, for all practical purposes. gives manifesta- tion of a real shortage. And that is the situation which we have in butter and eggs today; it is the appearance of a shortage. Therefore we pay the high prices which would he demanded in case of a real shortage. By thus manipulating the market, the natural law of supply and demand is completely overthrown. and a false economic order substituted in its place. The Bible School will begin at 9:30. The Service Flag will be unveiled at the morning service beginning at vleven o'clock. Miss Mary Tapper will lead the Young People‘s Society at seven fif- teen on “The Christmas Message and the (‘hristmas Spirit." At eight o'clock there will be a :‘pecial ('hristmas service at which Louis Keridler will sing the familiar i‘hristmas hymns and the motion pic- tun-s will tell the Christmas story. The prayerâ€"meeting will be omit- ted on Christmas Eve because of the community carolâ€"singing on the same evenin-r. ““7 Sunday morning at 10:45 Qiinday school meets) immediately sf» 'er the morning service. and in open. ‘0 pupils up to the age of 20 years T‘he Wednesday evening meeting vhich includes testimonies of Chris 'ian Science healing. is at 8 o'clock You are cordially invited to make me of the reading room at 387 Cen- 'ral Avenue. which Is open every week day from nine o'clock in th+ norninx until six o’clock in the ev- ming. mnn L4 ["1011 Raul L.

Sl'l’l’LY AND DEMAND Those interested persons who are watching helplessly the steady rise of butter and egg barometers may be impressed with the following figures, taken from Food Director Poole‘s report on (‘hicago's cold storage stock of eggs and butter. The figures show that in 1918 at this time, Chicago had 8,403,887 pounds of butter in storage. the price being fifty-six cents per pound. re- tail. Today Chicago has 13,884,223 pounds of butter which is selling at seventy-ftmr cents. retail, As for eggs. there were 90,995,840 dozens on hand in 1918, the price being fifty-six cents per dozen, while at present, there are 208,204,680 dozens of eggs, the retail price held at sixty-two cents.
