president of the Oklahoma Retailers,
association, told members of the as-
sociation at the regular monthly
luncheon Friday.
A better political situation, good
tall crops, and advances in the price
of oil all point to the truth of the fore
cast, Baugh asserted. In addition to
the foregoing there is the fact that
most merchants have depleted their
carry over to a point at which it is
not cumbersome, in spite of the fact
that heavy stocks were not In demand
during the past year for various rea
sons.
Although Baugh believes that a
stock of merchandise should be kept
down by constant sales during the
year rather than by radical reductions
in prices for short periods, the recent
sales were justified by the fact that
stocks were unusually large at the end
of 1923, be said.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 6—The old
saying about chickens coming

No matter how far from home

she, as it may be, will always re-
turn to the family fireside.
This interesting habit of the
moth family was disclosed today
by Mr. and Mrs. Philip Rau, St

five years in studying the home-
loving traits of the Cecropla as,
generally speaking, the Insect is
often referred to by those versed
in bug lore.

way home is due to its particular-
ly acute sense of smell, according
