BLOUSES
For Those Who Want to Save

If you have any desire whatever to, save
on your Boluses, then by all means should
you buy them here.
Just stop to consider that we are coop
Grating with the makers in manner that
eliminates all selling costs, and reduces
making costs to a bare minimum.
Summed up this means buying our
BIOuses for less, and in accord with our
established principle selling them for less.
We don't claim the impossible; but we do
claim that cooperation of the right kind
between manufacturer and retailer cuts
cost, eliminates waste and makes better
values possible.
And because of such cooperation With
the resulting superiority in values, you can
always exercise substantial savings on the
Blouses you buy here.
Here are some good examples of Thrift
in blouse buying WirthmOr Waists, that
would really sell for more, that are worth
more, and are prettily styled, dependably
made and perfect fitting, and are still
priced at just $I.OO. See these new models
tomorrow, and you'll wonder, as we some
times do, how it's possible in the face of
rising costs to still sell these Waists at this
low price.

Class |, of September II, 1918, reg
istration are eligible for induction.
certain men who possess qualinca-
tons suitable for entrance into Off
GERS training schools are eligible for
induction as skilled men. Men in de-
ferred classification of any registra-
ton may be indicted, and need not
be skilled men.
To be indicted men must present
themselves in person at this office or
one OF the sub-stations for exainina-
ton. Sub-stations are at present
maintained in Los Angeles and San
Diego. Transportation to the Office

home to await induction must be at

the applicant is desired, requisition
is made upon the Provost Marshal
General for the man, through the
Navy Department. If approved, the
Provost Marshal General then issues
an order to the mans draft board to
induct him into the navy. The man
is then transferred to the navy mo-
bilization Office for final completion
of induction and further transfer to
training camp.

You are no doubt aware of the fact
that under the new draft law, enlist

tinued, and men are indicted and
drafted into the navy instead. The
drafted men are sent direct to navy
mobilization stations by local boards.

WHY WOOL is SCARCE

The Army aud Navy monopolize the
wool market. Orders for our sol
diers and sailors not only require ev-
ery high grade pound produced in the
United States, but compel the utili-
cation OF our precious ships TO bring
in more. Civilian requirements de-
pend and must depend Tor consid-
erable time to come upon the shoddy
and rejected stocks that fall below
the army and navy requirements.
During recent years we have shorn
about 35,0C000O sheep annually, and
the pulled wool taken from sheep ana
lambs slaughtered for meat brings the
total clip up to the equivalent OF about
100000 feeces ii all of this were
suitable for military use, which unfor-
tunately is not the case, it would be
enough Tor only half of the 4,O00'uoo

sank.
The passengers included 800 women
and children. Bodies of three of the
children were brought ashore.

ficers of the Galway Castle are report
