The Orduna carried CD tlrst. 91 second It Is very nnd third class pahscngern. Onboard Toys nre going to be expensive the coming season, nnd worse yet, It may be Impossible for the domestic manufacturers to complete the orders now fast piling up from department and variety stores from all over the country. This Is the opinion given yesterday by Emll Strnbel of Strobel Wllken, one of the. largest toy distributing houses In America, Buyers had hoped up to th last minute that some way would be found to bring over part of the usual Hipply of toys from Austria and Germany, but this Idea has been abandoned, nnd It Is now up to the domestic dealers to exercl'e all of their Ingenuity to create novelties and specialties that will iippc.il to the jnungsters.

The cost of raw materials Is repon-slhln for the advance In prices, and It Is predicted that mothers and fathers will pay more for playthings the coming Christmas than ever before. Toys constructed from paper have advanred In price per while metal toys have Inct eased from 1 to 20 per cent, over prices obtaining a year ago. The mechanical toy will be scarce, It Is said, the more substantial toys of American origin of necessity being substituted. A limited quantity of Japanese toys Is being contracted for, but Inadequate steamship accommodations will retard considerably the shipment of these goods to the t'nlted States. Heavy advances have been made on this class of merchandise alo, so that, whethtr of domestic or Japanese manufacturers, the retail prices will soar.

The buyer of one of the largest Sixth avenuu department stores recently returned from trip abroad after having unsuccessfully tried to negotiate with German manufacturers for the shipment to this' country of a limited quantity of toys and dolls. While the Biltlsh authorities would be reluctant to permit shipments to this country. It Is reported German and Austrian toy manufacturers have ceased to ply this trade and are devoting their energies to other Indus-trUs. Temporarily, at least, Germany and Austria have ceased to be the world's toy shops. HOME DEFENCE LEAGUE OUTING Important to remember that It took us also were Charles A.
