Our wareroom became so congest-

rented a warehouse across the aIIev

had to use several different buildings
to take care of our surplus stock like
stoves, furniture, salt, brooms, pota-

Il. Z. Eagle made a trip to Alamo
sa one day this week to inspect car
OF apples that were shipped up from
Aztec, N NJ.
An advantage the Western stores
are enjoying at this time is that on
account of the distance from markets
they have always carried larger
stocks and been trained to buy in "a
much more liberal manner than
Eastern stores that were close to the
source of supplies and could replen-
lsh more easily. This is now work
ing to the benefit of the Western
stores and their customers as they
have large stocks of goods bought
that are impossible to obtain any
more on account of the scarcity of
raw materials and high priced labor.
This is one reason that you can buy
the greater part of the merchandise
that you wish of us the same as you
could in former years although on
the general market a great deal of
this merchandise is unobtainable.

GERMANY OF TODAY

Doctor Patten Contrasts the
Hohenzollerns With Their
Bavarian Predecessors

That the high Germans as represented by
the Bavarans and the low Germans as
represented by the HOhenZoerns alter
nately came into power in Germany through
the cultivation and eating of potatoes was
the. theory advanced by DR. Simon y.
Patten, Professor of Economics at the
Wharton School, University of Pennsylva-
mia today, before an audience of about
500 students in College Hall.
Doctor Patterns subject was THE Two
Germany's' the Germany of years ago and
the Germany of today. He said the Ger
many of years ago had a real ideal cul-
ture without money, while the Germany of
today has a culture with money, which is
responsible for the petty graft to, be found
there.
The ideals of the Germany of today he
said are economy, efficiency and co-opera-
tion as we'll as individual fair dealing.
Doctor Patten compared the ideals of
France, which he said are political, and
England, which are moral, with the low
grade ideals of America, which, he said,
we're low grade because they We're COM
posed of a conglomerate mixture of the
IDEALS of all nations. He then referred t.
the Germany of years ago when the high
Germans, the Bavarians. were in power,
because they cultivated and ate potatoes,
which the low Germans took up later, and
they then got into power through the

WORKERS UNDER GUARD

Western Maryland Uses Board
Barricade and Searchlights.
Denies Employing Breakers
HAGERSTOwN. Md. March o.


What work is being done in the big West
ern Maryland Railroad shops. which are
barricaded with a high fence. guarded by a
score or officers. and further protected at
night by searchlights. is subject of con-
tradicting reports. Despite denials of of
hcials that strike-breakers are employed
and despite the assertion that strike
breakers are not obtainable the rumor per-
sists that 200 men have been brought from
different places to take the places Of the
strikers.
One thing certain Is that the railroad
shows no desire to get back the disaffected
men. not even those who went into the
strike reluctantly.
Color is given to the report that men are
being worked under guard by the removal
OF desks from the old school building now
owned by the railroad on top of Academy
Hill to the former hall of the Enterprise
Fire Company, so that men may bunk in
this building; also the enforcement of the
trespass laws against all who have no
business on the extensive area of Western
Maryland Railroad property in the shop
section Three striker pckets were arrested
for trespassing, but the charge was not
pressed
high board fence has been erected
around the Academy Hill building and old
passenger coaches are ready for service as

FIGHT OPENED ON BAR
AT HARRISBURG HOTEL

monstrance Against R.
Park Gable
WEST CHESTER, Pa, March 81.


The proceedings in the case of r. Parke
Gable, of the Parkesburg Hotel, revocation
or whose license is asked by the No-License
committee, were started here today before
Judges Butler and Hause. 1t is probable
that testimony by Gable in the new license
application will take place Immediately
atterward II the matter is not decided at
the same time as the present one.
For the No-License Committee the Rev.
r. A. Manlove. Levi Townsley, odds Bel
derman. John Miller. Eugene Shoemaker
and John ANYWAY appeared and testified
that the hotel had become a nuisance. and
that to their knowledge the bar had not
been conducted in proper manner re-
Gently. They also asserted the license was
not needed in the town and had been the
cause OF much disorder not only on the part
OF residents, but by visitors from other
places.
1t is alleged that since the licenses were
revoked in Coatesville many men who were
on the flag list" in that place had beer
visiting the Parkesburg bar and been served
liquor.
Walter Mann told of seeing many
drunken men about the hotel and leaving
the barroom, especially recently since tn,
Coatesville bars were closed.
Harry Reedy was bitter against the
hotelmen. He testified that his brother
Arthur had often been served by the bar
tenders and had freQently got drunk at tn,
hotel and returned home in that condition
Several other witnesses declared there wal
no necessity for a license in the town,
