In Memory

There is shadow of sadness
in this Organization from the
loss of one of our Comrades,
Late Private Ohio Stokes. He
was a former member of the
original Co. AZ of Woodruff
Go. Ark, but at the time of his
death was of the Machine-Gun
Company of this regiment.
His death, due tonbronchial-
pneumonia, occurred about 4:30
the afternoon Of December 9,
1917 at Base Hospital, Camp
Beauregard, La.
Late Private Stokes was from
our home town and we always
knew him as Ohio. His death is
the source of much grief among
the members of this Organiza-
ton. He commanded the re-
spect and admiration of both
his Officers and Comrades.
He was always a soldier that
could be depended upon to full
fiji his duties and when called
upon was never found lacking.
Words fail when we try to ex-
press the deep sympathy to his
family and we hope that COM
fort may be theirs from the fact
that although away from home
at the time of his death he was
on a mission that the word honor
expresses mildly. True patriot
ism was shown by him when he
offered his life and services for
the defense Of our honor as a
Nation, one that entered the
struggle for the protection of
freedom and the overthrow of
autocracy.
May his family know that as a
soldier he always came up to the
standard and the members of
this organization extend their
heartfelt sympathy.

Let Us Help You
Over the Top

Let each American help some
one enjoy this Christmas, for
America will need a cheerful
Christmas this year more than
ever before as it will not be long
before you will be reading in the
papers of our boys being num-
bered with the slain over in the
foreign countries.
1t will be hard to keep back
the tears when you read of the
loss of your friends over there,
somebody's son, somebody's
brother and perhaps somebody's
father will be among the list.
In order to aid you at this
time, we have placed our entire
stock of Ladies' Skirts, Coats
and Suits a1 a twenty per cent
reduction in price.
Below are some of the bargains
we have to offer at this time:
Fortythree Ladies' Skirts are
placed in this bargain list as fol-
lows: Light weight, blue and
gray mixed, Wool Skirts. trim
med with buttons, formerly sold
as high as 81. SO, reduced to SIS. 80.
Ladies' medium weight, wine,
green and black plaids Skirts,
trimmed with hercules braid and
formerly sold as high as $3.50,
reduced to $500.
Ladies medium weight. black
and white plaids, trimmed with
pockets and belts which former
ly sold at$6.00. reduced to 81. 90.
In our Ladies' Ready-to wear
Department you will find ten
ladies suits. Five of these suits
are blue serge, fur trimmed, and
were formerly SIG. SO values, now
reduced to $3.50. Some of
these suits are blue garbadine,
military style and formerly sold
at SIS. 90 but we are now closing
them out for $3.50. We have
three $500 Suits which will be
sacrificed at 81 90.
We have reduced prices on 20

are plaids, trimmed with plush
buttons and belts. All of these
were bargains at $1,000, but we
have also reduced them to $1,000.

In Children's Coats, we have
about 40 that will be disposed of
during the next ten days. These
are real merchandise and to ap-
preciate their values you will be
compelled to visit our big store
during the next ten days.
We hope every person reading
this announcement will take adj
vantage of these bargains. Per-
haps your children or your wife
or children do not need anything
in this line, but can't you think
of someone not so fortunate? If
SO, then make it your duty to
give that person some of these
bargains.
We would be very ungrateful
if we failed here to express our
appreciation to our friends for
their liberal patronage during
this year and we shall be glad to
