In the Furniture Rooms

Customers are privileged to make any se- lections from the regular stock at a discount of 10 per cent. from the price on the ticket This concession of course does not extend to spe- cially listed articles.
 The Read furniture stock, which has been noted throughout the state for it's high quality merchandise, is at present in excellent condi- tion notwithstanding the drains which have been made upon it during the last week. Those pieces on which appear the greatest reduc- tions are often the most desirable Frequent ly they are patterns dropped by the manufac- turers because they cannot be duplicated It is best to let them go at sacrifice Do not miss the opportunity.

It is an Order

The Civilian Army, of whom most of us remaining here are part, must measure up to the Military Army overseas. Therefore we must obey orders. That seems to be soldiers first duty.
 The War Industries Board at Washington requires that in the exchange of merchandise all articles must be returned within the limit of three business days, and when returned it must be for good reason. This is fair to both customer and merchant. It means conserva- tion and both parties are the better off for the rule
