Mr.. Pappe Leaves Tonight For Chi
cage, Where he Meets the Repre-.
sentatves Of the Great Clothing In
dustry-WiII Make Purchases For
Spring If Can Buy All Wool Clothing.

NO all wool goods next year.
that's the statement of most of the lit
erature that is sent out by the biggest
houses of the country to Henry Pappe,
the clothier, of Marshalltown.
"All wool goods at Pappes" has been
the saying for years past. and in order
to support this Mr.. Pappe will leave to-
night for Chicago to meet and talk with
the greatest of clothing industry heads.
If there is one possible chance of buy
ing all wool goods for the coming
spring, Mr.. Pappe is going to be the
one to take advantage of such
chance, and buy now.
Such alertness on the part Of Mr..
Pappe has made his store famous for
clothing for men and boys. and if there
is all wool clothing sold next year it
will be the Pappe store that sells it.
Mr.. Pappe believes he will be able to
purchase his spring all wool merchan-
disc, providing he is one of the first to
buy. The other fellow, who comes late,
will find his market of goods not all
wool. Henry Pappe.

Lyman n. Howe Pictures at Odeon Of
Usual hiuh Standard


A good sized audience went travelling
with Lyman H. Howe. whose annual
travel pictures were shown at the
Odeon Tuesday night. Travel and ma
ture pictures, with touch of war
preparations. made up the program.
Most interesting were the pictures of
clay modelling, showing the rapid
growth of busts and other figures to
quick complexion. Interesting. too.
were the crayon and chalk sketches of
war in the air, depicting Zeppelin raids
over London.
Uncle Sans middies were shown
training at Annapolis and on battle
ships, and the pictures of maneuvers
of fleets and single vessels. the Brook
Ign navy yard. and gun practice on
shipboard, were especially timely as
showing the preparations and prepared
ness Of the navy.
The travel pictures included scenes
in the Cascade mountains. prettIly COL
ored views of streams, cascades and
mountains in southern France and
climbing Mont Blanc. Another film
showed logging in Maine. getting out
logs for the paper mills Activities of
the ant made an interesting bit of ma
ture study under the microscope. The
humorous animated cartoons added
their part to the program. which was
up to the usual standard of the Howe
pictures that have always been well
worth seeing and are different from the
usual run of motion pictures.
