To the proposition that buying Shoes
from a mail order catalogue is risky
business. You may come out all right
and you may not. The safest thing is
to come here when you want Shoes.

Mayor Airslie and Commissioners
Beykin and Thomas were selected as
a committee fr0m the board Of police
commissioners at the regular month
ly meeting which WAS held in the
office Of Major Werner yesterday
evening. to flnd more spacious rooms
for police headquarters, They prob
ably will report at the next regular
meeting and the matter will be
brought TO the attention of the proper
municipal body for consideration.
Cramped in tho present quarters,
so greatly that the work of head
quarters Is accomplished under a
great handicap, the members of the
board and the officials, consider the
situation at this time, as one calling
for immediate remedy.
Worst in the Country.
No city in the country Of Rich
mond's size has such meager and In
quarters The Office OF Major Wer-
ner is the only place where neces-
sary conferences OF the detectives and
captains of police can be held. Cap
tain Pollock. secretary Of the board
of commissioners, has utilized every
nook and Granny of his office for the
storage of his records. books and
other paraphernalta, and II greater
space is not accorded him soon, he

1t will be several years before the

cries for remedy. The determination
of the board is to provide the remedy

IN NEED OF RAIN

OF TWENTY-FIVE DAYS
DURATION.

LYNCHBURG. VA, May Cen
trail Virginia is suffering from a very
severe drought. for no rain Of con-
sequence has been experienced for
twenty-five days and farming opera
lions are almost at standstill by
reason Of lack of rain.
While all crops are suffering, this
is especially true Of grass. and the
planters have been stopped in their
preparations for planting their to-
bacco crop. Until there is q good
rain the land cannot be gotten in
condition, and then 1t will be neces-
sary to wait for another season for
transplanting. The delay in getting
the tobacco plants out has not both
cred the planters yet. for this can
be done within the next three or four
weeks prof1tably IL a season prevails.
Owing to the fact that at the be-
ginning of the present dry spell, the
precipitation was above the normal
for the first four months of the year,
springs and streams have not as yet
begun to show any great effects OF
the lack of rain.
