but she permits them with moderation and
discrimination.
It is not a fair statement that there is even three
ner cent of the population of our city favoring blue
laws or any kind of arbitrary or' capricious
enforcement of laws.
You cannot believe everything you read in the
newspapers, not even upon its advertising pages, where
restatements, that should not be put in print,
discredit all honest advertising and honorable
practices.

A Sale of Plaid Skirts
at $15 Each
The best skirt maker we know has already threaded his
machines for wash materials, and that means he has finished
with woolen goods for this season.
These skirts are some that he had left; there are 400

choice in materials, for all are the finest soft-finished velours,
prunellas and worsteds. They are light Spring weight.
Every skirt is pleated and the pleats stitched around
the hips. Sizes from 26 to 32 inch waistband, with plenty
in 30 and 31 inches.
There is an actual saving of from $7.50 to $10 on each
