We should put the best interpretation en
whatever we hear concerning- our fellow-men and
keep siJence at least until the information given
us is reliably confirmed.
It would be well worth while winning- such a
record as that of Rudelph Stewart Walten, one of
the founders of the Wanamaker Schools of
Industry, who was well known te have never
spoken ill of any of his fellows.
The least thing we can de for each ether is te

With the New Year
Twe events of such magnitude and such incomparable opportunities that each year
their call is heard throughout the fashion world.
Every woman of taste within a hundred miles of Philadelphia, every housewife
vithin reach of the City is awaiting the message that the New Year brings, for en
Tuesday will start the
January Sale of White
arad With It Alse Starts the
Wamassnalier Annual Sale of Fusrs
Hardly a woman within hearing but who feels the stir
of eager anticipation.
Here are fields and fields of white, like the snowy
stretches of the Northland. And every garment in it is
new, the most desirable, almost every garment perfect.
Here are cases upon cases of furs, fashionable things
if eer there were fashionable things. Just such coats and
neckpieces as proud folk smiled upon this very season.
Everybody knows of what excellent quality everything
is and all this is here ready for cheesing en Tuesday

1 HERE never has been such a year as
1 . a a , a .
lyzd neither has there ever been
such a white sale.
It's a sale for all tastes, all means.
It can dress te perfection the
woman of fashion and luxury, who wears noth
ing but supple silk next te her fair skin, and it
can serve equally well the busy little housewife
who does her own work, even te the washing1.
Fer the bride and the college girl, for the
business woman who practices her efficiency in
shopping, in fact, for every type of woman
that could be named (and nearly every woman
is a type in herself) it is an opportunity net te
be repeated here within six months, and net te
be matched anywhere else.
Fer the woman devoted te sports and out
door life, it brings everything she can need.
Fer the mother who wishes te clothe her
little fleck economically without descending te
"cheap" trash, it is a bonanza.

Christmas
It is a Wanamaker Original
White Sale, true te all its ancient
traditions, and without a single gar
ment in its thousands of offerings
that is even as ancient as last
Christmas!

Everything in the Sale, from a
snowy white shirtwaist te an ex
quisite Philippine hand - embroid
ered chemise is NEW, fashionable
and desirable.
Here is the outstanding serv
ice and originality of this White
Sale that was first in the field
with the idea; it always was, and
always is a WHITE field.
Net that a black silk petticoat
is white or a child's dainty gingham
frock is colorless, but the whole col
lection is fresh as new-fallen snow.
Nothing here that ever saw a
iWanama'ker counter or shelf be
fore. Nothing here that represents a
false cut of the shears, an imperfect
shape or a "skimpy" proportion.
The only "seconds" in the Sale are
some of the famous C. B. corsets
at 65c (cut, all rjght, but showing
some such trifling defect as a

dropped thread in the stitching,
etc.), and a small group among the
Philippine garments, which are
ever-blue (until their first washing)

$1.65, although exquisitely em
broidered. A n Offering Unequaled

Variety and Lew Prices
Quantities will reach 70,000 in
undermuslins alone.
There are 2000 overbleuses and
shirtwaists, including silk and cot
ton fabrics, and se en.
Qualities, for the prices, are al
most unbelievable. The prices
would have been net merely un
believable, but impossible, but for
the size of the orders, which enabled
the manufacturers te cut their
profit as we cut ours.
The assortment is delightful.
In the new famous Wanamaker
dollar nightgown (but this year
there s a 50c one), fully a dozen
different styles! In the finer and
the sample groups, number many
one and twos of a kind
OMEN by the hundreds have been
sitting back and awaiting this
word. New it has been spoken. The
great Wanamaker Annual Sale of
Furs is actually about te begin.
Yeu who read this announcement with a
quickening pulse have plenty of company.
Nearly everybody else feels the same about it
and all are coming bright and early Tuesday
morning.
Prices will net change in a day or two,
but you should see or, no you shouldn't, if
you need a new fur neckpiece or coat what
a day or two of selling will de te the stocks!
Every woman loves fine furs, loves te save
money, and knows the verity and the rigid
standards that stand behind prices and goods
in the great clearances of Winter
fur stocks that take place annually
in the famous Fur Salens.
This year, as all knew who keep
an eye en fashions, the furs, par
ticularly in coats, have reached a
degree of sumptuousness and
beauty beyond the high-water mark
of any previous season.
rphe Darling Little
- Jacquettes
that simply snuggle up te the heart
of young womanhood, have come in,
with their smart lines, their delight
ful blendings of furs, their glitter
ing clasps, their rich linings and
the Sale will open with a choice
among dozens of these highly
fashionable garments, scarcely any
two alike, each at exactly one
fourth the price it wears today.
Women who want the mere con
servative long coats, or the lovely
fur wrap with its graceful lines, will
be equally lucky in the range of
their selection, going from theimplest sports
coat of gleaming' muskrat te the most splen
did wrap fashioned of Alaska seal. Various
lengths, various styles, various fur trimmings,
everything beautifully cut and made,
