There is time to catch a bus and

Is a quaint community-there
are many automobiles, but also
many horse-drawn wagons and
carts. The storefronts present an
interesting combination of the
ancient and modern-those of
years ago, others interspersed
between are designed almost ex-
sctly like our most modern Am

Among the visitors, one hears
some interesting conversations,
like that of the visiting New
Yorker who remarked to his
wife that having spoken once
to a Fifth Avenue cop, anybody
would be at home in ireland
Everybody's an Irishman and
they all speak with that Irish

If that sounds a bit strange, 1t
is literally true, for the fact Is
that few other nationalities are
to be seen or heard here. They
have the same hard, common
sense, and the same magnificent
sense of humor Americans have
always associated with them
Possibly because there are sc
many Irishmen in the States. the
native character evidently likes
the "Yanks". He saw them often
during the war, and he sees a
few now. You are spotted the
minute you speak - for there

Formal Opening Of Beautiful New
]. E. Penney Store Attracts
Large Crowds; Has Cooling System

department store, Manager William
P. Stevens said.
"Enlarging the store in itself
makes it possible for us to carry
far larger stocks and ranges of
merchandise than was possible
heretofore, either in the store we
occupied temporarily at 205 Morley
after the fire or in our original
store" Mr.. Stevens pointed out.
Technical and merchandising ad-
vances included in the new building
make shopping at Penney's a real
and exciting experience, he said.
New front and show windows, of
simple but modern design, afford
maximum display possibilities in the
presentation of style and other lines
of merchandise.
Inside, modern headers-large,
wooden cut-out letters mounted
against a light background-make
it easy for customers to find the
departments they want without loss
of time, he said Lighting equip
ment will be adapted to special dis
plays, while harmonizing walls and
ceilings will provide effective and
pleasing backgrounds for selected
merchandise.
Cooling System
Installation also of a new evapor-
ative cooling system will provide
summer comfort, while a new cash
system will speed transactions for
Penney customers.
Featured on the first floor, de-
partmentalized for shoppers con-
venience, are mems and women's
furnishings and accessories, work
clothes, shoes and new jewelry
