C. mm mm WILL BE SILLER Some time within the coming year, when the storekeeper gives you your change, you may think he is handing you some trading coupons. But you will l«* mistaken. It will be some of Uncle Sam’s new and improved paper money— /narrower in width, and shorter in length, and harder to counter feit. The new bill will be easier to count and handle, and easier to spend. But they will )je just as hard to get as ever. Still, there may even be improvement there. Times are getting better. Since the first greenbacks were turned out during the Civil War, our paper money has virtually been 7.2 inches long and 3.04 inches wide. The new bills are to be 6 inches long ami 2 1-2 inches wide. These are the dimensions of our Phillippine money, which is hand ier to use and wears better than our larger bills. When the islands came under our control 2f> years ago they needed American money. In person, Elihu Root, then Me Kinley’s Secretary of War, order ed that this Filipino money be is sued in a different size than our I own. The new and smaller “green* j backs’* will be greensbacks and will be harder to imitate. Counter feiters can do many things with our yellow-backed bills. The new 1 money will probably be printed in | dull green and dull brown* colors that are the despair of the count erfeiter and his Camera. Now j there are five kinds of $1 ft bills. Hereafter there will be one. There will be one distinctive design for each denomination and no more I Historic portraits will be limited ’to the use of one for each Kind of bill. At present the face of Wash ington is on both the $1 and the $20 bill, which makes it easier to raise the lower one. I These and other clianes are ex ; pected to save Uncle Sam about $4,000,000 a year. Printing dollar , bills alone now costs him $5,000, 000 a year. About 1.200 tons of j highly expensive paper are used ■ yearly in printing money. Every day 1 1-2 tons of old dolinr billj? ! are turned in for redemption at | the treasury. It is planned to drop the $2, ' $500, $1,000, $5 000 and S10.00Q ; bill and it might prove difficult to | get a $10 bill changed. So this wll j not be inconvenient. ■ Futhermore the smaller sixei 1 The Frances Beauty Shop Offers Until May 20th An Edmond Permanent $10.00 WAVE ONLY SEVENTEEN MORE DAYS. “THE SURE WAY—VE” The EDMOND PROCESS of PERMANENT WAVING user pure steam as its main curling agency instead of strong chemicals.

' Besides there will be the saving in the number of designs. The 11 denominations now are made in 30 different designs. The new currency plan is vir tually sure,of adoption.

Smith, of New York state on a platform declaring for alleviation of the crying inequalities of taxation that now weight down upon the great mass of the common people through the yoke of a burdensome tariff,” A. Mitchell Palmer, for mer attorney-general of the Unit ed States in President Wilson’s cabinet declared here in an inter view. ‘The democratic party never , elected a President on any issue except the tariff issue; it is the party’s great issue today; end ( know of no man in the United Suites more capable of rallying the party to tlpit issue than A1 Smith,’ he said setitng forth his ex nressio'n of faith in the party of Jefferson and the common people. I ‘ The talk about repeal of the , 18th amendment being an issue of A] Smith if nominated is all non sense, and I have too much confi dence in the sound Xvisdom and good judgment of A1 Smith to be lieve for a minute that he even •V'ams of trying to make pro hibition an issue.” “I have always taken the dry side of the prohibition question personally,” he said, "but that fact doesn’t deter me for a moment i from expressing my confidence in an administration with A1 Smith as the logical standard-hearer of the democratic party.” Unless the democratic party ae cepts the issue that is readymade j for it—the tariff issue, as he nam | cd it—and carries that issue to j the great mass of the people whom it concerns, they cannot win with any man, he said. "The tariff comes to the party ready-made, Pitying for somebody to take it up - aniLga.to the country that is sore ly distressed and eager for relief.” WHO IS HE? When one comes to your town into your neighbor hood, the first question you ask is “Who is he, what does he do, how big is his family, where do they at tend church?” This is ri«'ht and proper. You want to know the kind of people moving in among you. Then, how much more important is it for you to know who the merchant is who is moving into your town, offering goods for you to buy. WHO IS HE! Haines, The One, Two, Three Shoe Man, Webb Building, Next to Kelly Clothing Co. His ancestors originally came from Virginia and Maryland into Pennsylvania and Ohio. His grandfather, John Shannon, was a trad er and merchant on the Ohio River in 1810. His grandfather was a Tohu Morrison, a Scotch man. His father, Mahlon N. Haines, was a Quaker mer chant. His mother, Mrs. E. A. Haines of Washington, D. C., was the woman known all over the country as hav ing the largest store in the world, built, owned, and controlled by a woman. The sidelights on his life are these: Born in Ohio; raised in Washington, D. C.; educat ed at the Maryland Uni versity; won gold medal as best drilled man; played short stop on first baseball feam; traveled extensively in Europe and all over America; in 1909 was mar ried; started in the shoe business with a loan of $127.00 worth of shoes; be lieved in quick sales and lots of them. Today he has forty shoe stores5; several big farms; big real estate op erations; a hotel man; fi nancier; yet with all, is a home-loving man who plays baseball with his boys, rides horseback over the jumps with the best of them ^giv es liberally; makes money by giving more for the money; sells four pairs of shoes to get the profit usually expected on one pair. “Haines One, Two, Three Sho e Stores all over the South” means just what it says. Shoes for One. Two and Three dollars a pair, the like of which you have never bought before; Hain es Stores have already started in Charlotte, Greens boro, Lexington and Shelby, and will open stores in oth er towns all over the south as soon as locations, are found. Haines says, “I believe in the South and its great fu ture. The people are my kind and I like them. And every dollar the Hanies One. Two, Three Stores Makes will be left in the South.” These stores are financ ed by southern capital, man aged by southern men who profit on each pair of shoes sold. We are here to serve, and I’m a firm believer that ho that serves best profits most. VVe have already counted you among our friends and customers.

Gaffney, S. C.—E. Thomason and ' Frank Cothran, genera! manager and chief engineer, respectively, of the Piedmont and Northern, were Gaffney visitors Thursday. All work on the proposed Pied ; mont and Northern railway exten sion in the two Carolinas is tem porarily tied up pending a reply to the railway’s request, made at a hearing before the interstate com merce commission, in Washington, • on Friday of last week, Mr. Thom ason said. A decision is expected next week in the dispute on whether or not the commission has jurisdiction > over the railway. Within a week after the decision is made, it was stated, operation can be started. This, of course, de pends on a favorable reply. In the event of an adverse decision an! the railway does come under the jurisdiction of the commit: io) . ' there may be a leng^hj* delay »t the $20,000,000 project. The plans call for a completion, of the link between Spartanburg and Gastonia and pushing funks: north from Charlotte to Winston Salem. . While here Thursday Mr. Thom ason stated the Piedmont and North ern plans to build the connect in? link between' Spartanburg and Gas tonia by way of Gaffney. For this reason the forthcoming decision of the interstate commerce commis sion is of vital importance. The na tional transportation act prohibits the building of a new railway par allel to an established line ut let*3 the commission grants a certificate stating that the new road is re quired by public necessity and rot1’ venience. Several rail compa1"1 s> including the Southern, are fight ing the electric line’s efforts, to se cure authority for constructing the extensions. Two arguments, have been pre sented to show that the Piedmont and Northern should not mine der the jurisdiction of the inte state commerce commission. . Exemption is claimed because P the fact, that it will he strictly a" “interurban” railway and n0* trunk line. It is pointed .out that stops are placed at an avc-age <' one and one-half miles on the c11 tire line. The other reason for which ex emption is claimed ts that the new work is to ly> merely the of a project started in 1912 ’> James B. Duke, prior to the <*n netment of th° transport"!v!,‘ '
