MAY DAYS OF
 PREPARATION

It doesn't much matter what your plans for June. July, or August are, but you must agree that your comfort during those months will be greater if in the pleasant month of May you take advantage of all of the opportunities offered for prepa- ration.
 Last-minute shopping is dis treSSing and unsatisfactory The weather is warm, the streets and shops are crowded and the stocks are not nearly as fresh and attractive as they are now. Therefore be fore handed and let your head save your heels
 Plan your summer outfit now, no matter how small or how extensive it may be; and not only plan it but get it. You will have lot more fan later on 1T you have provided yourself with what you need i'll apparel and sporting goods before the season is in full swing.
 If you have any doubt about what you want look at the ad- yertisements in THE BULLE- TIN and you will find plenty of suggestions.
