posing hall clocks that
meet you in the wide aisles
with "the grand air." like
gentlemen-in-waiting in a
royal court, are not there
for mere purposes of show.
They are there to decide
some of your problems by

II HESE hall clocks, so
Il handsome of face, so
stately in figure, at the
same time are perhaps the
most useful articles in the
whole Jewelry Store, for
they serve a whole family,
not stopping work even
when on strike, and outlast
a generation.
They ale first-rank time
keepers. Besides sounding
the hour and half-hour,
the ma lority are fitted
with beautiful, silvery
chimes.
Reliable timepieces are
a hobby of the Wanamaker
Jewelry Store that have
brought great happiness
and satisfaction into thou
sands of lives.
Not the prettiest-faced
clock or watch gets in here
until we have investigated
its references.
The Christmas watches
are ready for the choosing
(the earlier, the wider
choice) and all their refer
ences are signed with the
names Elgin, Wdlth0Bi or
HOICard, or a few of the
women's wrist watches
with the name of some
good Swiss maker.

II for women are smart
as can be, and represent
the fashionable shapes In
all their variety-square
and round and oval and
octagonal or even heXag-
onal, not to forget the
Cushion" and "tonneau"
shapes. Some have lumi-
nous dials.
Prices give almost as
wide a range of selection
as styles. A 14-karat gold
watch on a plain black rib
bon can be had for $40, then
going up all the way to 1925
for an exquisite little time
piece surrounded by flash
ing diamonds.
Silver watches on silk
ribbons for women are $40,
S45 and $40. Women's
watches of 14-karat gold,
set on bracelets of flexible
links, are $40 to $3.50.
Mems pocket watches in
fine assortment start with
gold-filled watches at SIT to
S68, while in 14-karat gold
the range is S28 to $40.

WESTERLY

Chidrens Day marked the close of the annual fair of the Washington County Agricultural Society at Kings ton, Friday In addition to the reg ular attractions. conceded to be the best ever, there were special features for the benefit and entertainment of the school childrn. There was a va ried programme of sports and com petition was keen for the prizes of fered, and in addition there were edu- ca ational features of interest and prizes awarded for proficiency. While children were admitted free they were far outnumbered by adults, and, ii nancially the closing day was the best of the week. The light showers in the morning did not affect the at- tendance and the sunshine in the af- ternoon seemed to put more pep into the exhibitors, the visitors. and the management, and as a general result there was regret that the fair was not commencing instead of ending. Weatherwise there has not been a real fair day during the fair. but this did not in any way interfere with the progress of the event as planned, ex- cept when on the opening day it was necessary on account of the rain to postpone the races to the next day
 The real attraction for the adults Friday, that is those who on other days had made the ground rounds, was the horse-racing events, espec- ially the free-for-ail. as it was antic ipated that some real fast horses would be started for the biggest purse of the week. The summary of the races follows
