Halt;wanger & Carpenter.

Your undivided attention is called
to the page advertisement of Haiti
wanger & Carpenter, Inc, in todsy's S
paper. This large, we'll known and
reliable firm is preparing to do big
things for the public in what is
called the Helping Hand" Sale,
which begins this Saturday. Help
ing Hand sounds good, and it IS
well for the community and sur
rounding territory that this blessing Of
sale is put OF, as many people need
the helping hand now. As the pro-
gressive proprietors say, a reduced
price at that store means real re-
duction." The time being limited,
customers will be wise to "shop
early" Read the ad and see the va
rious articles marked down low;
they are too numerous to be repeated
in this local. Haltiwanger and Car
penter get off some wholesome truths
in their fine announcement. They
speak with wisdom when saying that
the condition of high costs brought
on by the war has passed, and that
the quicker prices come down the
better off everybody will be. Good
for Haltiwanger 6 Carpenter.

DEMOCRATS CALL FOR
FINANCIAL AID NOW

1t is well-recognized principle O.

staunchest and bravest troops fol

cal moment. The general who does
not provide for this contingency find,
himself in precarious position wher
the tide of battle begins to swing
against him.
Great political battles are Tough;
on the same principle. AS the cam
paign progresses the tide of politica!
sentiment flows back and forth, ano
the party that has no reserve forces
to use at the critical moment finds
itself in difficult and embarrassing
position. The Democratic party is
facing this situation. The Re )ubli-
can party is marshaling it's forces for
the supreme attack on the Demo
cratic ranks, and if we are not pre-
pared to meet this attack the party
must go down in defeat.
The Democratic party's "shock
troops are the white voters of the
South. The South has always stood
as solid phalanx against the on
slaughts of Republicanism, and now
for acknowledgements in the North
and East are crying out to US for
help in the fight they are waging
against big odds in doubtful states.
