DO YOU THINK I WOULD
SUCCEED AS A SALES
WOMAN OR OFFICE
ASSISTANT ?"

A natural question and one
that is being asked US every day
by young women who have no
experience in selling or in cler-
ical work. and by married wom-
en- who would like to take up
some pleasant work for part or
all of their time; especially
where their husbands are in the
service.
By our system of training. in
a surprisingly short time young
women are enabled not only to
earn good wages. but a substan-
tial monthly bonus by their pro-
ficiency in selling. In the main
Office and auditing dept. the sal
aries are exceptionally liberal.
There are so many pleasant
and cordial things about this
store that make it such an at
tractive place to be located in.
The work is not hard; it is clean,
interesting and pays exception
ally well.
1t is so much pleasanter to
handle and sell high-grade mer-
|chandise; to come in contact
with the better class of GUS
toners who naturally prefer
dealing with a high-grade store.
For Instance. right now there
are several good openings in the
sections devoted to muslin un-
derwear, boys clothing. apparel
for girls. You will find it espq-
cially pleasant to sell the things
|of good quality and small in size
that are carried in these sec
tions. Plenty of openings, too.
| in other departments.
Also we. need several sales
women in the shoe section.
Being the exclusive Washing
ton dealers in Hanan Shoes
means the finest shoe trade in
the District.
Our Office and auditing de-
lpartments are among the clean
est, pleasantest and most mod
ern in the city. An attractive
position is waiting for you here,
If you prefer clerical work to
selling.
Whatever the work you pre-
fer, for part or whole time, why
not drop in tomorrow and have
a talk with our superintendent,
Mr.. NARROW. He will be glad to
advise with you and assist you
to an excellent position that will
prove agreeable, congenial and
profitable.

ONE MILLION DOLLARS
FOR FIGHTING FIRES

The President has authorized a loan
of one million dollars to the Forest
Service for fire-fghting expenses, to
meet the serious emergency conditions
in the National Forests of the North
west and the Pacific Coast States. The
loan was made from the special de-
Tense fund of fifty million dollars
placed at the disposal of the Presi-
dent by Congress. 1t is recognized
that the protection of the National
Forests is an important and essential
war activity.
Forestry official regard the present
fire season in the Northwest as in
some ways the most serious with
which the government has ever had to
cope. Early drouth. high winds, cleo
trical storms, labor shortage, and de-
pletion of the regular protective force
as a result of the war have combined
to make the fire conditions UMPIRE
cedently bad.
Necessity for resort to the Presi-
Dental fund is due to the fact that the
appropriation bill for the Department
of Agriculture for the current year has
not yet been passed.

AN "ALL-YANKs DRIVE

notable feature of the recent
heavy fighting in France has been the
general absence OF references to
American troops in the battle news.
At the same time, there have been
official reports of the steady with
drawal of American battalions and
brigades from the larger British and
French units in which they were
merged, and the creation of an all
American army under Gen. Pershing's
direct command.
II is evident that those myriads OF
American soldiers have completed
their training and served the purpose
for which they were brigaded with al
lied troops They are ready to go
on their own" Everything else is
ready, too-guns, planes, ammunition
and the rest SO we shall have, very
soon, what all Americans have ardent
" looked forward to-a big American
army, prepared to wage war as the
armies OF Haig and Mangin have been
waging tan army the credit for
whose achievements VIII bNApA6 SUN
ly 10 America.
That army is believed to number, al
ready, no less than half a million men.
That is a formidable lighting force,
even in this war of millions. If we
may Judge from previous perform
ances of our troops, it will be the most
powerful organization of its size in
existence
The question now is, how and when
will it be used? There are surmises
that It is being held by Cen. Foch as
a mobile reserve, a battering ram to
hurl against the German line wher-
ever and whenever the supreme COM
mand determines. If so, our army will
have the most honorable and adven-
turous task in this great allied offens-
i've. To it may fall the good fortune
to smash through the Prussian de-
lenses at the supreme moment, roll
ing up and routing the enemy as he
has never yet been routed, and play
ing the most conspicuous role in the
great drama of victory prepared by all
the battling of the last six weeks.
