NO ROAD CONTRACTS
No New Ones Being Made, and Old
Ones Find Money Short.

No road contracts are being award
ed in the state at this time. There
are few districts which have ad-
vertised for its letting of contracts,
but on account of the increasing cost
it is very unlikely that any new road
work will be undertaken for some
months to come. Many of the present
projects will do we'll to be able to
continue their work to completion. An
analysis of the current prices of all
material and labor entering into the
cost of roads, shows an increase in at
least three-fourths of the items and
decrease in a very small number
For instance the one item of cement
has more than doubled in the last y
months. Much of this increase is due
to the advance in freight rates. while
other increases are not so easily eX-
planned.

the February Sale Of 1920
we have now reached that
stage. We have come to
the time when the EX-.
TENT of the Wanamaker
stocks begins to prove
itself.
Since the Sale began
we have experienced a de-
mand which would have
swept any other furniture
store clean Of supplies.
But the Wanamaker Sale
has withstood the demand
and it is still "the sale
with the goods" and it
will be "the sale with the
goods" right up to the very
last day and hour. ;,

THIS is A FEBRUARY FURNITURE SALE
BACKED UP WITH GOODS FROM
BEGINNING TO END

Today, notwithstanding
all the furniture that we
have sold within the past
few weeks, there is not a
gap in the floors. Re-
serves have come in to
keep the place filled with
opportunity, and there
are more reserves ready
to be brought in as fast as
they are needed.
This is a furniture sale
which must never fail
those who depend upon it.
In the face of existing
conditions, it is to their
interest to take advantage
Of it now for all it is worth
and to do so right away.

What a Wonderful Blessing 1t
Is to Have Something

70 do every day and to be of use to yourself or
some other person!
To live through the days in aimlessness,
which is one of the con,monest of things in some
circles in every city, tending to nervousness,
INDIGESTION ill-temper, waste of time and great
unhappiness, not knowing what to do, almost
always ends in nothing or in something not
worth doing.
Let some one help you to master your
nerplexities and rescue you from the perils of
mental idleness and help you to turn to account
YOUR unappropriated hours.
There are over six thousand happy people
at work here every day, preparing to meet people
