From high officials today It wa learned
that the government does not expect Ger

Germany promise no further sinkings of
Argentine ships If this promise Is not
made. It Is certain the republic will Im
mediately announce a severance of rela

of a diplomatic rupture, the greatest Irri

the United Statea that South America's first

of German agents here does not tscecd and
very probably docs not even equal the work

Announcing
Our Appointment as Distributors
of the Popular
Ocrippsootk
To the many Scripps-Booth owners and prospective
owners in and around Philadelphia, we are pleased to
announce our appointment as distributors of Scripps
Booth cars for Philadelphia and vicinity.
It is indeed gratifying that this acquisition should come at
a time when our new showrooms and service station have
just been completed, for it not only enables us to exploit
this well-known car in an environment.worthy of its class,
but equips us to render a service to owners which is second
to none.
The Scripps-Booth from the moment of its introduction to
Philadelphians some four years ago won immediate recog
nition because of its distinctiveness both in design and
performance. It has enjoyed a constantly increasing sale
because of the general satisfaction it has rendered, and
now, with the addition of the eight-cylinder model, the
Scripps-Booth line offers a choice that for luxurious
completeness leaves nothing to be desired.
We take this opportunity of inviting all present Scripps
Booth owners to call and make yourselves known to us
that we may be better able to render service that will
insure mutual satisfaction.
Complete line of models now on exhibition and ready for delivery.

SUMMER
The New Novel By
EDITH WHARTON
Relentlessly this amiting novel pursues
its way to a thrilling conclusion. The
narrow, hardened minds of the villagers
denying sympathy to her, are faithfully
portrayed. And then, the supreme joy
which comes to her leaves you with the
conviction that Mrs. Wharton has indeed
risen to the heights in writing "Summer."
