removed making one large room,
and work is now well under way

ned by the firm as oon as the alter
atoms are completed. These depart
ments will be music. jewelry. leather
goods and toilet articles. All the
present departments will be en-
larged. A total of thirty clerks are
employed by the firm at the present
time and with the completion of the
building these will be increased to

a small room in which children may
be taken care of while the mother
