BARGAINS IN EVERY
Line ON SATURDAY
Unusual Weekend Specials
Multiplied AMI Merged
This Week.

Competition is said to be the life of
trade and there will always be special
bargains offered by individual firms.
But it happens only once a year that
all the progressive firms in the city
offer special bargains on the same day.
This year that day is next Saturday,
July l2. Coming to Salem to do some
trading next Saturday is just the same
as coming half dozen Saturdays for
special bargains, for next Saturday is
the Third Annual Bargain day offered
by all the wide awake, go-get en- mer-
chants in the city.
On ordinary common Saturdays, one
may find several real bargains stick
ing around, mostly at the dry goods
and shoe stores.
But there is not always TO be found
real bargain offerings at the hard
ware stores, music stores, picture stu
dios, grocers, furniture stores, iewelry
stores, and drug stores at the same
time and day the drygoods and shoe
people are offering specials.
But this remarkable condition will
exist next Saturday, as the annual Bar

ficatiOn By Senate Most
Informal.
BY L. G. Martin

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Washington, July lO.-President Wi
son today rendered to his eountrymen
report on his work as their peace
maker.
Addressing the senate shortly after
noon. he presented for approval and
ratification the concrete results of his
two trips to Europe--the treaty Of Yer
sailles, ending the world war and set
ting up a league Of nations to insure
that peace shall last.
President Wilson will present the
agreement to come to the aid Of France
in event OF unpr0yolted German attack
at a later session Of the senate, it was
learned today. He considers it too i'm
portani to be presented at the same
time q the peace treaty is presented.
Traditions Upset
In appearing before the senate to-
day the president upset another tradi-
ton. Since the nation began, all treaty
discussions in the senate have been
eloaked in secrecy. But today's eere-
monies are "to pEoceed in the open
as President Wilson in his IL points
declared treaty making must hence
forth always proceed.
Regarded as the first gun in q most
vigorous campaign for unequivoeal ac
eeptanee Of the peace settlement just
as il is, today 5 address received the
most attentive consideration Of sup
porters and opponents Of the Wilsoniar
peace program.
Though the speech was virtually com
pleted before the George Washington
docked, Wilson spent most Of yes,er
day in revising and amending it.
Senators Form Escort
Just how he changed it. or for what
reason, was not known. 1t was under
stood, however, that the changes were
principally ia structure and that tht
main idea of the address as he outlined
il on shipbOard remained the same.
