oleomargarine. the resolution pointed
out, was the only whole food neces-

possible"

The Bamberger Store Opens
at 9 and Closes at 6 O'Clock.
Morning Shopping Is the
Best.
Between
Ourselves

In a great store like this it is
often necessary, in the interests
of good service, TO carry the
same lines of goods in more
than one department. For in
stance. sweaters of various sorts
are handled in FIVE DIFFER
ENT departments, and we could
enumerate a dozen other lines OF
goods which are kept in differ
emf places.
AS we said before, this is
done, not so much because we
find it profitable, as because
it facilitates shopping and
makes it easier for you to buy.
Some day this may be changed,
but until someone suggests
better way of handling the situ-
alton we shall continue as we
are doing.
The point we wish to bring
out is this: In shopping, if you
do not find exactly what suits
YOU, ask the salesperson if SINH
lar lines are carried elsewhere
in the store. The chances are
YOU will find exactly what you
are seeking.
The Bamberger store carries
larger assortments than any
other Newark store; in fact, we
aim to keep our stocks as conf
plete as those Of the best and
largest New York stores; there
fore, it is reasonable TO suppose
that we have what you desire.
In short, if you don't see what
you wish, ASK FOR IT!

 During the night of September 15-16 the Germans attempted formidable move ment in the western sphere but were met by the French and British with cour- age that was marvellous against over whelming odds. The Germans returned to the attack no fewer than 10 times with remarkable tenacity and intrepidity. but we're unable to break through the firm lines presented by the allies in fantry.
 The fight just before daybreak was the most violent of all. The Germans ap- peared to throw into the charge all that

The train has fast schedule and was not exceed ing that which will be made this morn ing by the same class of service. MT. Jones, the engineer. joined the service of the Alabama Great Southern on May 8. 1Ss9 and was considered one of the bravest and most trustworthy en- sireers on the Queen and Crescent lines. MT. Jones' before he died said i, that as he approached the siding at Klondike he observed the switch light out and as his headlight operated by electricity illuminated the space, he saw a man run across the track and disappear in the darkness. MT. Jones closed the throttle and opening his sand valves, applied every brake that could be put In service. It was too late, however. The engine struck the open switch, the engine crashed into car of slag, there was an instant of stupefied silence and the shrieks of agony.
 "I rushed out as soon as could," said Robert Jemison. ST., yesterday evening as he entered the Terminal station.
 ssI have suffered many greater shocks on trains with which noth- ing was the matter and thought nothing of it. I helped pull MT. McDonough through a window. He was suffering fearfully.
