 Beginning Thursday June 21, our store at the corner of First avenue and Adams street will be open till 9 D. m. We will continue this through the hot months. In connection we wish to state that the salespeople in our en- ploy are not being worked overtime. We believe that six o'clock closing during the hot months shuts off the coolest hours for shopping, so have added extra salespeople for this pur- pose. No goods will be delivered after six o'clock. All orders after six will go out the following morning.

The Test for a Traitor

traitors by three simple tests, Dr..
Newell Dwight Hills declared ye3-

their true nature.

They may look like loyal Americans
and act cautiously, but the direction
OF their argument, and the force Of
their logic. he said, distinguishes them
infallibly from the rest of the people,
Putting his analysis of the disloyal-
list situation in precise terms, Dr.. Hill
lis said: 49,
"The three tests of the traitor to
this country are:
"First-He tries to find something
he can criticize in Great Britain, SO
as to justify German atrocities.
"Second-He will never utter word
of criticism of these atrocities, but
hates anybody who can prove the Ger
man cruelty.
Defends German Cause.
"Third-He never tires Of insisting
that Germany is fighting for the free
dom of the seas-when, in his wicked
heart, he knows that in a half a cen

Dr. Hills remarked further that
there are certain German-Americans
who think they can nullify the influ.

sembling people and talking on the
crimes of England"
"These people, pacifists and aliens,
are now with subtle cunning and vast
secret trickeries attacking England
and trying to ALLEVIATE the Irish,' the
preacher added, "as if the mistakes of

the pro-Germans cannot understand
why the English colonists gladly give
their money and their lives" he said,
