GIMBELS ASK 100000
IN SUIT AGAINST TRIBUNE
Say They Suffered Through Samuel
Hopkins Adams Article


Gimbel Brothers, through their at
torneys, Rose & Paskus, yesterday
brought suit in the Supreme Court
against The Tribune, demanding ST.
100000 damages, alleged TO have been
suffered by their New York store
through an article published in The
Tribune on October %, 1916.
The article was written by Samuel
Hopkins Adams and exposed the al
legged advertising methods which Gim-
bel Brothers employed in attracting
customers to the so-called birthday
sale" in their store.
The article announced that The Trib-
une had excluded from its pages the
advertising of Gimbel Brothers. This
action was taken in pursuance Of The
Tribune's policy of publishing the truth
in its advertising as well as its news
and editorial columns.
The Adams story was based on a
long series of Investigations conducted
by The Tribune and dealt with the
shopping experiences Of members Of
the Tribune Bureau of Investigation at
Gimbel Brothers over long period OF
time as we'll as during the progress OF
the so-ealled birthday sale"
Mr.. Adams, who personally made
many purchases, mentioned, among
other things, the famous Iceland fox
bargains Of Gimbel Brothers. The lee
land fox proved to be Tibet lamb,
The suit is directed against the Trlb-
une Association, Ogden Reid, Richard

Sackett, Chapman & Stevens, counsel
for The Tribune, announced that the
defence would include that Of justiii-

Fifth Avenue BOhemians
Did Not Know Wines
Were Being Seized
EXCISE VISITORS
TROD A MEASURE
Chief of Club in Old Van
derbilt Stable Indignant
at Intrusion

Those Fifth Avenue Bohemians who
were dancing in what used 70 be the
Vanderbilt stables at AZ East Fifty
eighth Street, but is now the Club de
Vingt, missed a delicious thrill yester-
day afternoon. While they glided IN
the refined Washington Square atmos-
phere of the transformed stable excise
inspectors raided the cellar and carted
off one hundred cases of choicest wines
and liquors.
So heartily did the excise inspectors
Join in the truly polite unconventional
i;y of the place that not one of the
Hftv dancers suspected what was going
on. although the word got abroad out
side. and many who were not or the
elect took the opportunity 10 stroll or
drive through Fifty-eighth Street.
Women in Raiding Party
There we're four or five men and two
women in the raiding party. Their au-
tcmobile drew up at the curb, taking ITS
Mace in the line that was dlseharglng
women and men members Of the club at
the entrance. According 10 one account
Of the affair. the representatives OF the
Excise Department entered and joined
in the dancing before proceeding 10
their task.
AT any rate, il was about O'Clock
before a motor van backed 70 the curo
and men began carrying out chnking'
cobwebbed cases from the cellar. A pa
trolman on post in the vicinity was re
CRESTED by one of the raiders to stick
around; there might he something
doing" The patrolman stuck, but so
far as ne could see, there was nothing
worthy of the interest which seemed TO
be aroused in passersby by the trans
fer of boxes from cellar TO truck.
Mrs. r. W. HswkesWorth, manager oil
the club, was indignant when the topic
was brought to her attention later.
Nothing happened at ALL she de-
clared. $50 far as | know, and | was
here all the afternoon. Why, such
thing would be simply impossible. Mrs.
Stuvyesant Fish and the families OF
August Belmont, Cornelius Vanderbilt,
the Goulds and many others as well
known, are among our members ana
patrons"
Awaiting a License
A steward in the club asserted. how
ever. that the hundred cases Of liquor
rad been seized. The club had appled
for a LIQUOR license last October, ne
said. and anticipating its arrival, had

Tea dances are held in the CLUB IN
the afternoon and dancing begins again
at 10 o'clock in the evening, from
o'clock until 10 the club is closed.

ARMY AND NAVY
OFFICERS ATTEND
Governor Whitman, Hon
orary Member, Leads
March at Midnight

Since war clouds first dsrkened the
American horizon the Stars and Stripes
has been saluted, formally and infor-
mally, every time that loyal citizens
have met But never during the pres
ent crisis has homage been paid the
flag in any more picturesque environ
ment than surrounded the ceremony
last night at the ninety-frst annual bal!
of the veteran Old Guard, in the Hotel
Aston.
The 1000 men and women in the
room were swept away in a whlrlwind
of patriotism. The men, ali IN uni
form. formed themselves IN hollow
square beneath the hag-draped bal
comics in the Grand Ballroom OF the
hotel. Then the color guard Of SIX
Old Guardsmen appeared, bearing the
colors of the United States, of the
State of New York and OF the Old
Guard itself.
Instantly, hundreds of swords flashed
as they were ripped from their
sheathes. The color guard marched
down the bristling double line OF
swords, TO dip the eolors before the re
viewing officers. Then a torrent OF
cheers broke forth.
Guardsmen in Uniform
The ball is one of the most unusual
social affairs held in New York City.
The members of the Old Guard-all
veterans of the army, navy or National
Guard appeared in their full dress
uniforms, of cream colored coats heav-
lily braided with gold. massive shakos
and blue trousers with wide red and
gold stripes. Scattered through the
lines were scores of active army and
navy officers, in their more conventional
uniforms, along with uniformed rep
resentaties sent 20 New York for tn.
ball by other veteran organizations OF
the East and South.
There we're members OF the Gov
ernor's Foot Guard, of Hartford and
of New Haven, clad in their blue uni
forms and brown topped boots; the
famous Richmond Grays; the Wash
ington Minute Men, in quaint Colonial
garb; the Ancient and Honorable Ar
tillery Company Of Massachusetts,
noted for its wealth; the United Train
of Artillery, from Providence; the Ma
tional Lancers, of Boston; the Putnam

DRIVE ID RECRUIT
 ID WAR STRENGTH
Campaign for Volunteers Will
 Begin Here Tonight

The race for. premier regimental honors between Company D and Com pany Fl, the two companies having the largest muster roll in the First In- fantry, continues to be one of the in- teresting episodes of otherwise dull routine work. Yesterday morning these two commands were tied with 1o7 men each, During the day Com- pany B enlisted a new recruit and again took the lead with 10s enlisted men and two officers. The latest re. cruit is Bolisk Tanski.
 Drive for Recruits.
 Throughout the state campaign is being waged to bring each company in the First and Second Regiments to full war strength. 150 men, and in New Britain Mayor Quigley and civil ian workers are cooperating with Lieutenant Griffin, commanding Com pany E. and Captain A. H. Grfswold. in command of Company I, to stimu- late interest in recruiting. Tonight at Fox's theater, during the presentation of "The Eagles Claw" a stimulating war picture, Mayor Quisley Is to ad- dress the audience, and regimental officers and enlisted men will be pres ent Adjutant General George M. Cole is of the opinion that young men en- listing in the national guard now will be given a chance later, if they show marked ability, of attending officers training camps. The adjutant general states:
 Though speak with no official au- thority, personally believe that tho young men who enter the national guard now and show themselves to be qualified for 1t will be selected when the times comes that tho officers are to be picked for the army which soon will be drafted. The man who enters the service now will have a distinct advantage over the man who comes in later or who is taken for the new army because of the fact that he has had additional training of. the inten- sive variety which we plan to give all recruits from now on.''
 Qualifications for Enlistment
 Applicants for. enlistment must sat- fsfy the recruiting officer regarding their age and character and tho doc tor regarding their physical condition. For the infantry, coast artillery and engineers the minimum height is s feet inches and the maximum weight is 19O pounds. The minimum weight for all army branches 1s 12S pounds, subject to certain variations explained below. In no case, however. will man be accepted without 8 spe- cial waiver from the army ad1utant general if he weighs less than 17O pounds. Herewith Is printed the table of physical proportions:

ADVERTISING.

Advertising said Mr. Arthur Bris-
bane. editorial writer OF. note, in his
speech at the Ad Mems banquet in
Baltimore. Thursday night, is the
means OF putting thought in such
state so II is made easier for other
persons to get the idea. The path OF
the brain Is through the eye You can
get 5000 together and tell them what
you want to convey through the eye
BY means of moving pictures One
OF the first principles of good adver-
tising is the proper display of type.
There are thousands OF ways of dis
playing type. but 1t takes careful
thought TO do 1t in the right way.
Next. what has been written must be
read by persons who look for adver-
tisements. You must also write so II
must be seen, read. believed, under
stood and at the same time create a
desire for what you are advertising.
"One of the best examples OF what
advertising men are doing for the
government IN the war was proven
by the Secretary of the Treasury
summoning 10 his office a number of
professional advertising men to write
the advertising matter for the Lib
orty Bond sale, All the pictures of
Uncle Sam. all the appeals you have
seen for the Liberty Bonds were writ
ten by advertising men, But his real
work will come after the war. We do
not know when the war will end, but
we do know how it will end War will
be won by intelligence. Russia is a
disagreeable problem, but England,
France. Italy and the United States
have more intelligence than Austria
and Germany combined
