Reliability

There is one special need this
season for looking to the relia-
bility of the clothing you buy
and the store that sells it. Mer-
chandise conditions have chang
ed tremendously - reliability
isn't nearly as common as it used
to be.
You've known us for years, a
store of reliability; a store of
quality clothes only; store
dedicated to the principle of
Customers First" We have not
changed that policy, nor will we.
We're rather sure you want re-

for trading here. The others

ity, Tailoring. We handle only

German camoufIaoe.

A British air officer, writing from
the western front, says that the Ger
mans have this spring brought cam.
outage to a state of artistic perfection
taht is almost incredible. 1.-THE most
expert and highly experienced airmen
are often deceived even when flying
low" ne writes. "As a first step, the
German military authorities sought
suggestions from the most distin-
guished German artists in color. AS
next step, every available man was
turned on to the business of carrying
ont the artists ideas. Miles of canvas
painted to look like roads were con-
strlcted, under which regiments could
march without being seen. Paper en-
campments were improved and aero
dromes, woods. villages and factories
of a purely fictitious character were
set up merely to distract observers and
to cover the movements Of troops and
guns. Nothing on so vast scale has
ever been ATTEMPTED before"
