TINE desire for economy ii S seems to be
Il widespread We are for it: 1t is something we
have been trying encourage in our advertising We
consistently urge economy. We believe that people
who do need clothes should not buy Them There
have been enough clothes in the country to 90 around
and anyone who get along with the clothes he has,
rendering public service.
We have also said that if you do buy clothes for
of self-repect other aesthetic feelings you
should buy the kind of clothes that will be the least
waseful.
Economy in clothes is not simply in paying low
price for them; it is getting certain amount of
cloth and tailoring for clothes something more
than a covering for the body.

PLEA made TO
C[0TnE ARMENlANS

Whatever may be it's political sta
tus, the most urgent need in Armenia
at present is for clothing. Effort has
been concentrated on the feeding OF
the hungry-which includes the whole
population the caring of the sick
with the result that in many districts
the peril of starvation has been temp
orarily at least, removed, and the dan
ger of death by disease materially re-
duced. American tools and farming i'm
plement are offering increasing tho
still inadequate opportunity to the peo
pie who raise their own produce.
But clothing the Armenian people
have not. Thousands of refugees are
still wearing the shreds and remnants
of the garments in which they started
on their unhappy pilgrimage five
years ago. Thousands more are clad
in nothing but flour sacks, burlap
bags or single dilapiated dress OF
coat given them at the relief station
a year or more ago. And a still great
er number have not one whole garnl-
ent to cover their bodies. It is esti-
mated that sixty thousand children
alone will have absolutely nothing by
next fall unless America sends some
thing to them.
During the summer this situation
is not such dangerous one, but by
next winter the plight of these people,
particularly those living in the cold
regions around Mt. Ararat or in the
Caucasus, will be desperate. The ex-
periences of the past winter will be re-
peated and intensified. Thousands will
perish from exposure. Unless all the
money which has been given to feed
these people is to be thrown away clo-
thes must be, supplied them.
| With this end in view, the Near
East Relief, the official organization
for Armenian relief, is holding an Old
Clothes Campaign, beginning the first
week in August, when the public is
asked to turn in all it's old clothes that
still contain warmth and wear to the
local headquarters of the Relief, or to
the National storeroom at $40 West
Thirty-ninth street, N. Y. City, from
which shipment will be made direct
to Constantinople. 1t is not often that
so small price is asked for human
lives, but in this case the value of cast
off clothes is almost as high as that
of gold.
Arrangements have been made that
any clothing that anyone has to give
for this worthy purpose may be left
at the Red Cross rooms, Gazette block
Medina, 0. You are urged to be as
generous as possible for this worthy
cause and to bring whatever clothes
shoes, etc, can be spared as soon as
possible, that the same may be shipped
| to New York in time for it to be sent
to Armenia.

Two weeks ago, Lawrence West,

gar vanished. The truck later was
found abandoned, with the cargo Of
sugar gone.

Vests truck was stolen again, and a.
gain it was found with the sugar and
produce unloaded. Detectives McNeely
and Funk were assigned to the case,
and obtained evidence last week.
At 8 a. m. yesterday the detectives
waited for the trucks from Bruins
wick to arrive and trailed them, with
out the knowledge of the owners. They
followed the trail thru the downtown
market district and thence to seven
grocery houses where the trucks We're
oaded with supplies to be taken bac.,
to Brunswick.
Clyde Brown, owner of one of the
trucks, parked his machine on w. 9th
street, while he went in grocery
house. His truck was loaded with sug
ar. While McNeely and Funk were
watching the truck, Pullman, the Of
ficers say, emerged from behind an
other machine, jumped into the truck
and started along Lakeside avenue at
a. fast speed. The detectives signaled
a passing motorist and jumped int
his car. The chase began.
J At w. 9Th street the pursuers were
caught in a traffic jam, while tn"
truck was humping along. McNeeley
and Funk jumped out and began to
sprint for the truck. They reached i
at w. 3rd street. McNeeley climbing
on the running board.
"Put on your brakes! You're under
arrest" he commanded.
The driver increased his speed and
veered into W 3rd street from Lake
sid avenue. An intrurban car was
tanding near the corner. Steering di-
agonally across the street, the driver
tempted to sideswipe the interurbar

ELEVATOR COMPANY /.
CHANGES HANDS

The Litchfield Elevator Company
was taken over Monday by the Litch
field Exchange company, cooperat-

ong the general line, advanced by the
Farm Bureau, that the farmer may
market his grain thru a concern in
which he is a stock holder. There will
soon be cooperative elevators at all

in the county. 1t is hoped in the near
future that these local concerns may
control the large elevators, in fac !,
controlling grain from the field to
