SHOP EARLY ORYOU
Will GO WITHOUT
Greater Demand and Fewer
Goods With Which to
Supply 1t Than
Ever Before.
DEALERS CANNOT GET GOODS

"Those persons who think they can
wait until the last minute and then
stroll down town and leisurely pick up
just such Christmas goods as they de-
sire are going to have rude awaken
ing" said Fl. G. Maddox, secretary Of
the Kenosha Retailer s Association to-
day.
Merchants this season, are having
harder time getting goods to supply
their trade than ever BEFORE" continu-
ed Mr.. Maddox. The trade this year
is bigger than ever before and much
larger than was anticipated by either
merchant or manufacturer. In some
lines the usual volume of goods was not
made but in the majority Of cases the
demand is far in excess Of the supply.
"Some Of Kenosha g merchants are
now out Of town and others have made
trips out of town making personal pur-
chases and they will bring their pur-
chases along with them and not risk
the ordinary channels of trade, SO that
they will be sure of what they have
purchased arriving in time.
"This does not mean that there viii
not be some stuff in the many lines to
be purchased but it means that pur.
chasers who do not shop early will have
to be content with fHopkin s Choice
"There will, no doubt, be quite a
quantity of goods in every line that
may be purchased but it win be pick.
ed over goods, goods that every one
else has taken his choice from and left
to the late corners.
"This is not the case only in Keno
sha but it is true the country over
The same condition exists everywhere.
There is the greatest demands for goods
in all lines that was ever known in
America and with the shortage in sup
ply the condition is rendered that much
worse. The only remedy, therefore OF
the particular buyer is to shop early. =

It is unique in that it has, since or

This company, too, pursues the plan
of preferring no representation to poor
or Indifferent representation. Until the
man of exactly the right character eau
be found to assume an agency at any
definite point, no agency is undertaken
at that place.
Issuing every modern form Of insur-

been such that nearly one-third Of its

twelve Red Cross branches in the coun-
ty asking that every official in the coun-
ty attend in uniform and 1t is thought
that every one in the county will be

Cross because he has been "over there y
and he knows what the work Of that
organization is doing for the soldier.
If he can take up his time to work for
the relief of his comrades when he

the people of Kenosha to turn out and
give the returned soldiers and sailors
hearty welcome.
