In woolen goods, on dollar this year, equals in purchasing power $1.50 In 1929. In certain shoe lines, the average drop in prices has been 17 per cent. Drastic price reductions were ·announced on a wide spread number of lines of merchandise late in June of last year, when the J. C. Penney Co. set the lead in bringing retail prices down to a basis justified by replacement costs. In percentage drop, the July prices which will be announced by the company are, in most cases, equal to those made last year, as compared with the 1929 standards. Officials of the organization state that on many lines prices are lower than they have been at any other time during the past ten years. On certain merchandise, prices are at low points not equalled for the past twenty years. THAT'S NEWS perhaps, like paradox enow, but in Boise, Idaho, there was a cold winter night not so long ago when no news came in at all. There was a reason for no news and that was news. It seems there was a trapper--only 15 years old-who went out to his traps in a pretty old car, which finally decided to quit entirely one night when the trapper was on his way home. Well, the boy cranked and cranked until he was finally exhaust ed. He heard the wind singing through telephone wires overehad. He remembered about the promptness of linesmen to repair and breakdown of telephone wires. So he climbed the pole and clipped the wires. Sure enough the "trouble shooters" came along ~n due course and saved the boy from certain death due to exposure. How did it all come about? In the Associated Press office in Boise, the news comes in on an electrical tele typer. Suddenly in the middle of a news item, it stopped as though an unseen hand had quited the keys. The A. P . reported the trouble and the linesmen located it-and incidenttally a very grateful trapper.
