PLANS IN

YULETIDE
Charitable Organiza
tions Prepare to Give
Needy of City Neces
sities for Christmas
Preparations are being made
by charitable organizations,
churches and different associa
tions to give the poor of the city
a merry Christmas by supplying
them with provisions and clothing
It Is estimated that there are
200 poor of the city which will be
aided by welfare workers from or
ganizations interested, and the
plans are to centralize the work
as much as possible.
The local post of the Salvation
Army, while its budget is not u&
large this year as last, Is making
every attempt to collect slothing
to supply those who are in need
and who are already applying fr
aid. There are innumerable tarn
Hies in need of help throughout
the city, but are too proud t3 ask
asistance from charitable societies
The post will place its "boiling
pots" on every street corner down
town on Saturday, the proceeds
from which will be used In the
purchase of food to be distributed
on Christmas day to the poor.
The Red Cross, It was announced
this morning, will do no general
charitable work, but will devote
Its efforts In assisting ex-service
men and their families.
The Jason Lee M. E. church hks
already begun the collection of
clothing and work repairing and
putting it in a wearable condition
Is being carried on. The church
is also planning a Christmas tree
and entertainment sometime be
fore Christmas to which the public
Is Invited.
While the Charrlans have never
been a charitable organization,
their part In the Christmas activl
ties of the city will be to keep the
large tree on the court house lawn
lighted during the holidays.
The newly organized associated
tharlties has not been in exist
ence long enough to make plans
for Christmas provisions, and oth
er than seeing those who hav
applied to officials for aid, are not
in actual want, nothing has been
done along this line.

Shipments of
Boxed Apples
Show Big Gain
Advance In Price
of Gasoline and
Oils Is Predicted
Chicago, Dec. 8. Crude oil and
its by-products including gaso
line, will cost more in the future
than they do at present, because
of the difficulty experienced in
getting at the oil, Frank Haskel,
president of the Tidal Oil com
pany, told the American Petro
leum Institute today.
He said that the first paying
wells drilled In the mid-continent
fields were shallow, but that It is
now necessary to go deeper, with
proportionate rise in the cost of
drilling the wells. t
Mh. Haskel said nearly every
state in Mexico contains oil and
there is much in untouched fields
In South America.
Boxed apple shipments are 70
per cent heavier than they, were a
year ago according to figures Just
issued from the department of ag-.
riculture while barreled apple
shipments are up to the present
!esg than half what they were at
that time. This is accounted for
by the crop failure in the barreled
apple sections. Cold storage hold
ings are far below those tf last
year, and even below the average
for the last five years.
The apple market has shown a
downward trend throughout the
season and much of the fruit
which has gone into storage is
now worth much less than when
!t was stored. Unless there is a
decided advance in the market the
holding game will prove to a los
ing one.

Assertions to this effect were
made by C. R. Edwards, an explor

able to petrify wood in a remark
ably short period of time.
Edwards related that he noticed
that the ground in the vicinity o,

the trees became petrifed when
the minerals were drawn into the
tree cells In liquid form.
Edwards set to work to dupli

his experiments have met with
success.
