Spring Suits and Coats

We are now in position to
show you an extra large line of
the new spring Suits and
Coats. Never were we able to
show you so early in the sea-
son so complete a line of the
new things.
We bought early and heav-
Ter than usual, in order to pro-
tect our trade against the adj
vance in price which is sure to
come later. Then, too, later it
is going to be hard to get the
good materials.
The new Suits are very attractive,
and the designs and styles are entirely
different and new. The Coats have
the new flare to the skirt part, and
the loose, straight lines give them a
grace and style that is sure to please.
These we are showing at the popular
prices of the season.
The Separate Coat line is complete
in style and quality, and the large
showing of different models is sure to
please all who are looking for the
seasons best. We are anxious to
show you the line.

here at home, can hardly realize.
When we say plan early purchases,
we mean Just what we say. If you

now. Here in Vermont, where we
have anticipated conditions, you can
buy at old prices. Very soon we, too,
will have to take our turn.

SOUTH AMERICANS AFRAID OF
NORTH AMERICAN TRUSTS

BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 9.-South
Americans are deeply interested in
the suggestion, referred to in dis
patches from washington and New
York, that the Sherman law ought
not to be enforced against North
American business houses seeking
trade on the southern continent.
South America is exceedingly fear
ful of trusts and especially of North
American trusts. The people base
their ideas on translations they have
read from newspapers in the United
States. They believe, literally, the
very strongest things they have read
concerning the trust evil. 1t is doubt
ful if the still uninvaded corner of
Belgium would degard a German IN
cursion with any more pleasureabIe
anticipations than South Americans
feel at the hint that the North Ameri-
can trusts may get grip on them.
This apprehension of trusts, in fact
is considerable obstacle in the way
of American trades progress here.
Consequently this latest suggestion
has not been well received
South American business men who
think closer pan-Americanism trade
relations would be a good thing eX-
press the opinion that the field is so
wide open, while the war lasts, that
the trust methods are unnecessary at
present. Their view is that North
American firms would do better to
gain a foothold by individual effort,
before the European struggle is over,
resorting to combinations later if they
are compelled to.

MAN WHO BUILT TOWN FOR
WIDOWS NOW BUILDS ONE
FOR WORKING GIRIi

TULSA, Okla, Sept. o. Charles
Page, multi millionaire oil magnate
and the man who built "a town
Sand Springs for widows
and orphans, today completed tent
city near here for working girls and
to get them to and from it every
cay.
Page built Sand Springs and gath
cred widows and orphans thruout
the country to populate it bacause he
decided, when he was poor boy try
ing to make living for his widowed
mother, that if he ever got rich he
would do just that. He built the tent
city because he thought living in
houses in the summer time unhealth-
ful for working girls. More than 100
Tulsa girls are living there now.
The tents are II by II feet, floored
and boarded on the sides distance
If four feet, with callapsible canvas
tops.
iNo BiIlH occupy one tent. ne
tent streets have gas plates every
few yards so the girls may cook.
There is fresh water and at night arc
lights ad watchmen guard the town.
There is free bath house for the
girls, and they have all the privileges
Of the parks concessions.
Girls who heretofore had to quit
their work in the tense heat of sum
mer are working all day in tenn
perature of more than hundred and
Tearing up under it.
Even some of the girls from wealth
'er families of Tulsa made applica-
ion for tents, but without success,
he one and only requisite being that
a girl is working for her living The
plan works so splendidly that Page
is contemplating the building of two
hundred more tents for next year.
