Picking a White
CTOW u ith Us

A very fine old gentle
man, who lives just out
side of the Philadelphia
city limits, has sent us a
letter containing this
complaint
Il fancy l don't make a
hard call upon your magma
ton to appreciate the pleas
ure of an old fellow past the
eighties in having a pair of
new breeches to wear to the
wedding OF his son, fur
loughed from his ship to wed
today.
1T may give you some
pleasure, too, if l add that
these new breeches have al
most If not more than room
enough for the feathers of
two crows ] have TO pick
with you.
First Crow - counted
upon a new suit for next
Summer, but, unfortuna .e'y
Cor otherwise), two years
ago you built for me suit
of gray (for Summer and
Fall). Well, l wore that sui.
for one year and a half, day
in and day out, and shall
have to wear it all next Sum-
mer to get it into any shape
to give away.
Second Grow - At the
same time / bought a pair
OF patent leather shoes I
asked a guarantee against
cracking (Which was pJ4.,e.y
deelined).. Well, 1 have
worn those shoes to this day,
day in and day out, rain or
shine, and couldn't find any
excuse to get a new pair this
Christmas. There's not a
flaw in them, body or soul,
and they look as good as
new, only a little more low
ing, leaning in one spot to
comfort that little toe con-
cerning a little corn.
Il tell my friends if they
are fond Of chance, don't go
to Wannie's."

BILE. For instance:
A smart-lock'ng dress Of
navy-blue or black serge, on
simple, becoming, straight t
lines, with braided belt, end Ing
in sash, finished of with a black
buckle, is only $1,000.
Another illustration of the
fact that a woman can be we'll
and fashionably dressed with
cut side-stepping economy, by
shopping in the Down Stairs
Store, is furnished by an ef-
fective bue serge dress at
$3.50; aas le of fine serge, with
the new surplice bodice, silk
poplin collar, and smartly tai
lCred skirt, buttoning all the
way down the side front and
side back.
Unusually attractive is a one
piece dress of navy blue serge,
priced at $3.50. A distinctive
ly stylish coat effect is gained
by the pIeated panel effect in
the front and back Of the skirt,
the deep collar and narrow
belt. effectively trimmed with
buttons.
Still another beautiful, one
piece dress Of dark-blue serge
is priced S16.50. 1t is in the
peplum style, and has a white
satin vestee and silk braid
trimmings. Especially effective
are the three buckles on the
belt. above the full peplum, with
touches of red about them.

A N interesting lit
~ tie incident hap
a pened last week
in the Down Stairs
Store where so much
that is interesting is to
be found at all times.
A lady from one of
the biggest towns in one
of the most important
counties in Pennsylva-
MIA came in with a
friend and asked to see
separate skirts.
81 cannot get a skirt
to please me for less
than S18 or $19," she
said, "but my price limit
is 9lo ana ! SIMPLY
won't pay more.
81 always like to come
in your Store and see
what is there, but l
don't get to Philadel-
phia very often. Late
ly you've been publish
ing your announce
ments in our papers,
and they have made me
think that l could get
suited here"
She was asked to take
a seat while some new
skirts were sent for
skirts which had Just
been unpacked and had
not had time to even re-
ceive their price-tags.
The price was $3.50.
'Why, these skirts are
superior in all particu-
lars to any that I've
seen elsewhere. and vet
I'm saving $1.50 even on
my own price limitP
she exclaimed. H er
prompt selection and
purchase of one of the
prettiest models was
supplemented by tn e
purchase of a SIS skirt
by the friend who ac-
companied her.
Both WON e n went

vey of the vocational needs of the
community and the possibility Of the
high school being able to meet them.
The State Board for Vocational
Education has already recommended
that Pendleton high school be aided
by the government in giving course
in gas engine and tractor operation
and repair. However, before the
funds could be made available for this
use. it was necessary for the Board
to be convinced, according to Profess
sor Shepard, that this work could be
called vocational Hence the visit OF
Professor Shepard and his investiga-
ton with 1Ir Stack. They will prob
ably meet with the school board this

If the recommendation of the State
Board is approved and federal aid Sc
cured for the local school work, it IS
