CHICAGO, November 20.—A family of five can get a Thanksgiving dinner and $1.50 change from a $10 bill this| year, the Mercantile Exchange esti- mated today. Last year one got only 50 cents change. ‘The menu includes oyster cocktail, celery and olives, roast turkey, sweet and mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, turnips or peas, rolls and butter, pump- kin ple and coffee. H ‘The reason the cost is $1 less lhln| last year, the exchange explained, is due mostly to the fact that turkey is approximately 12 cents a Pound cheaper. Oysters are a fraction lower and the other commodities are about the same price as last season. “E DRY CLEANOM“ $1.00 ¢ z Cull Potnmn: 3900 DOLLAR cu.\mno CO. : ® 1731 7th St. T;ESE SMART Terri Book Compacts 25¢ Tims Holiday Box Free with every Tims Cap For Sale atLeading Stores TimsCapCorp. 50-54 W. 17th St. New York PARADE CAP Guaranteed 100% Pure Worsted AT LEADING STORES Have Always Been $2.50 Now—1-69 A vividly enameled, gilt-edged little book flies open to reveal a lipstick flanked by rouge and pm\dcr A charm- ing addition to your purse.
