"Will be with you noon train. Can

This was the telegram that Nelson
Wright received at his Office and in
stantly the dull day was transformed.
he sprang to his feet briskly and
snatched up the telephone receiver,
calling in turn three close male friends
who were favorite chums.
If there was anybody in the world
whom Nelson particularly liked 1t was
this electrifying Bach" Joyfully he
hailed one and each of his chums. 1--WE
told you about Bach. Well, he'll be
here today, so hold yourself open for
supper"
He had known Bach for two years
when he was working in the city.
When Nelson returned to his home
town and put out his single as q
budding attorney he had kept up a
regular correspondence with this prince
Of good fellows. He had known that
Bach was or on q jaunt for a month
and was duly delighted to learn that

ENGLISH STORES
 AMALCAMATINC

Washington. Mar. 31.-Ama1gama- tion of department stores in England is noted in official trade reports re- ceived here as the latest development of 8 tendency toward combination in each branch of England's national industries. Big stores, especially those in the more important cities, are combining through purchase or consolidation and already it has be- come apparent to some observers that the business soon will be con centrated in the control of a few big interests.
 The American Chamber of Com merce in London reports that one of the largest department stores of that city recently absorbed three compe- titors and has branched out in South America through the opening of a large establishment in Buenos Aires.
 'FThe value of advertising as a sell ing force is becoming more realized , in England" the report said. '"This movement towards amalgamation is not expected to destroy competition though it may tend to narrow its l scope.''
