STORE TO BE
REMODELIED
OVER NIGHT

The entire lower floor Of Watson,
Parker and Reese will be changed over
night as it were, and Monday morning
will open with entirely new fixtures,
which will have been installed for the
convenience of the customers.
Hereafter, in line with modern
stores in larger cities, the goods will
be displayed in full view of the pur-
chaser, which means better and more
efficient service, time saved and an OPP
portunity to choose carefully.
This systematized method will also
protect the merchandise, save the
goods from handling and will avoid
dust collection, keeping the goods
fresh and ready for Immediate use.
The women of Pensacola and West
Florida are cordially invited to visit
the store Monday morning, where they
will find that an entire Transformation
Of the interior has taken place, ex-
perts having been sent direct from
New York to make the changes and
improvements.
1t is stated that the change will dem
onstrate the degree to which modern
efficiency has been developed. Ordin-
arily, the Transformation would require
several days, but as result of careful
advance planning it will be accom-
plished without interrupting the bust
ness of the store.

BUSINESS BOOM IS
To FOLLOW WAR END

New York, Nov. end Of the war
will bring tremendous opportunities
for expansion and further prospert
to AnIurIcan business.
Foreign markets the world over will
be waiting for goods which only
America can supply.
Such is the belief Of Richard Spill
lane, editor of Commerce and FL
nance, who is one of the country's
greatest authorities on general bust
ness conditions here and abroad.
Spillane is SO strong an expert that
his views carry great weight with the
largest manufacturers and most pow
erful financiers Of America.
when the time arrives for us to
help in rehahllitating the devastated
lands of Europe" Spillane declares
americas opportunity will be here
1.-The shelves of the world are bare.
Belgium and Northern France are
stripped clean. Everything of bronze,
COPPER, iron, steel, tin, has gone.
THE Germans have taken door
knobs and letter box fixtures. Every
metal utensil has been taken. Hinges
off the doors are gone.
There is enough hardware business
in Belgium to keep the factories of

ly needed in nearly every section of
the globe, America po. sesses today in
greater quantity tl,an any other coun-
try.
Our new merchant marine will be
turned over to private interests to OPP
crate. There will lie no government
regulation OF rates Government regu-
iatIon of SHIPPING rates is as iniquit-
Gus ana unCconomic as price fixing

I'VE must let the law of supply and

Our manufacturing industries are
in better condition than ever to under
take the conquest of foreign markets
I'VE have the ra wmaterial, the in

An era of uneXampled prosperity
should follow the war for us.
For the first time in history we

bound up with foreign commerce."

BAVARIA THREATENS TO QUIT
UNLESS ARMISTICE is SIGNED

Paris, Nov. 8.-There is reason to be-
lieve, according to a Berne dispatch to
Temps that the premier of Bavaria
has sent an urgent note to the German
government stating that if an arms
tice is not concluded without delay,
he will be obliged to officially order
Bavarian troops to return from the
front. This action would be taken, it
is added, owing - the fact that Ba-
varia is menaced on the southern
frontier and the internal situation in
Bavaria is unsatisfactory.

BEAVER LODGE INSTALLS
OFFICERS THURSDAY EVE

Watertown Beaver Colony No. 709
formally installed officers elect for the
ensuing term at an open meeting in
Eagles hall Thursday night Beavers
and their friends were present A So
cial entertainment followed the in
stallation.
Mrs. H. M. Knowlton of Waterloo
district manager, installed the Of
ficers. The installation ceremonies
though simple and dignifed, were
without pomp OF. display.
After the president had called ali
his officers, the meeting was turned
over to the entertainment committee
The first number on the program was
a piano solo by Miss Lois Werner. The
selection though extremely technical
and involving hand exercises of an
extreme order carried a lifting melody
and was well rendered.
Mrs. Knowlton, district organizer,
was then called upon to entertain. Be-
fore replying she mentioned the fact
| that owing to her having been in Wa
tertOwn so often her standbys had
been exhausted and she had cleaned
from an old friend a selection en-
| titled 'The Man Who Comes Up From
the Crowd" To say the least her die
ton and delivery were good The sub
iect was admirable and distinctly ap-
propriate.
Miss Ruth Cruger with Lois Werner
at the piano sang two selections The
| first, GaudOrds "Florian Song" is a
beautiful melody and we'll adapted to
the singers powers. Her ease in TAX
ing extreme tone ranges and voice
| control was excellent The second
| number a Cradle Song" by Brahms
was equally we'll rendered and the
singer was obliged to respond to an
| encore.
Mrs. Swantz to relieve the audience
recited 'Herby Hoover's Com eto Our
| House" in an inimitable MANNER
Following the arranged program
| the Beavers and their friends enjoyed
| an impromptu program consisting of
games, dancing and then some more
games.
| A delicious luncheon was served at
| a late hour.

STANDARD BRUSH CO.
CLOSES TEMPORARILY
LACK OF MATERIAL
Bristles Imported From Russia Used
In the Manufacture of Bristles
Are Hard To Obtain
At Present.

Lack of the necessary material will
necessitate the closing of the Stand
ard Brush Co. factory in West Cady
street on Saturday. Ihe closedown
will be temporary and until the neces-
sary material can be secured. Most OF
the bristles used are imported from
Russia and the supply, the officers
say, has been shut off to a great ex-
tent.
The factory has been enjoying good
business, but was unable to fill or
ders completely as in the past and it
was decided to shut down until normal
conditions are revived
John Zoelle, one of the members OF
the firm, stated today that the shut
down would only last until such time
as the necessary material entering in
to the manufacture of brushes can be
secured so that they can completely
fill orders in the future
1t is reported that some other plants
will be compelled to shut down tenn
porarily unless the necessary material
can be secured.
