*
Has But Two Sales a Year
Twice yearly we conduct our now famous ONE THOUSAND SUIT
AND OVERCOAT CAMPAIGNS, which are used for end-of-season clear- /UPlSbi
ance. We prune down prices so low that further reductions are impossible.
The same reduced prices prevail in February as are advertised in Janu-
ary, so that the man who buys his Suit or Overcoat earlier does not pay'
a premium in January on February prices.
Everybody—everywhere knows THE GLOBE'S ONE THOUSAND SUIT AND
OVERCOAT CAMPAIGN. They know the TRUE—the REAL VALUES we give
and that (quality considered) we cannot be undersold.
Besides the great reductions offered we will give every purchaser of a Man's or
Boys' Suit or Overcoat a "BONUS" of 5 per cent, of the purchase price if we sell 1,000
Suits and Overcoats by February 24th. Alterations FREE. v

Keep Up Strain
TAMJAC EIGHTS NEW EIRE
"They've had us going full speed
out at the works ever since the muni
tion orders started to pour in," says
George R. Stroh, of Steelton, Pa., "and
I worked at such highN|jressure that
I began to run short of steam."
"Willing to work, you understand,
and glad to be making the extra
money, but I guess my tires got full
of clinkers and I needed to draw them
and start fresh."
"I found I was slowing down and
couldn't seem to pick up pep enough
to keep up the pace. 1 was tired all
the time, sleep didn't seem to rest me
and 1 felt weak and all run down."
"Well, I'd hearil about Tanlac ami
tiiiw it had helped lots of folks around
here, so I hiked down to Gorgas' and
got a bottle on the chance it would
me up."
"And it sure did. It fixed me up in
great shape in almost 110 time at all.
Seemed as if the very tirst dose put
new life into me and by the time I'd
finished the first bottle I felt as if I
could work 24 hours every day."
"I'm full of pep and ginger these
days and have no trouble at all keep
ing a full head of steam. I'm working
overtime again and the biggest day's
work only gives nve an extra good ap
petite. Tanlac is great stuff and I'm
telling the boys at the works about
it."

street intersection paving:, was de
feated by 7S votes, the only part of
the loan that did not carry.
Less than $3 00 remains of the
amount provided for street paving in
the third improvement loan. Be
cause of this, Commissioner Lynch ex
plained to-day that the only improve
ment plans for the year include re
pairs and finishing work that has been
started.
As soon as weather conditions per
mit work will be finished on the fol
lowing streets which are being paved:
Swatara, frttm Eighteenth to Twen
ty-first.
Green, from Woodbine to Seneca.
Susqpelianna from Woodbine to
Emerald.
Honey from Mt. Pleasant to Chest
nut.
Much of the concrete, work ha 3
been done, but the surfacing can not
be completed because of the weather.
As soon as the ice and snow lias
been cleared from other streets. In
spections will be made so that repair
work can be rushed when the asphalt
plant is opened again. TJUs will be
done probably during the. early part
of April.
Commissioner LJrnoh in reviewing
paving plans declared that Chestnut
street should bo paved between 18th
and 20th streets, but about one-
I fourth of the property fronting on the
street in that section, is unassessable
and the city has no funds to pay for
this work. He irttimated that the por
tion between Nineteenth and Twentieth
streets, may be paved as there are
no street intersections to finish in that
block.

QUIETEST WEEK
IN STEEL TRADE
Traffic Troubles Are Given as
the Cause of Falling
Off
I'
Still beset by traffic troubles, the
steel trade trade has had one of the
quietest weeks in many, as though
January ends with even more assur
ance of full operaUons far into the
year than existed at its opening.
In summarizing the situation, the
Iron Age of to-day says:
"That the United States Steel Cor
poration, with all the constriction of
traffic late in the year and the short
age of coke, earned $106,000,000 in
the last quarter of 1916. or far more
than inthe previous three months, in
dicates the advance the steel com
panies have made into their higher
priced orders. But even so, consider
able shipments are still going out at
close to a 2c basis for heavier prod
ucts; hence larger earnings are yet
to come.
"In the Pittsburgh district some
mills are believed to have shipped
more product in the past fortnight
than they booked in new business, but
generally the cutting down of ship
ments has caused a slight gain in un
filled orders in Januaiy. At Chicago
consumers of the heavier forms of
rolled steel have crowded the mills
with specfilcations and emergency or
ders, so that even in the absence of
large new contracts the accumulation
on the books has increased.
"In the Central West there is some
easing up of the pressure on sheet
and bar mills. Some sheet mills that
have been quoting the top of the mar
ket for prompt shipment are now tak
ing such business at $5 lower. On
heavier products, however, prices on
both early and later shipments are
tirni if not higher.
"The desire of foreign buyers to
get all the steel possible from this
country is seen here and there In the
acceptance of more steel with upper
limits in phosphoi*ous and sulphur.
In a recent inquiry for 40,000 tons of
4 %-inch rounds 0.07 was allowed on
phosphorus and sulphur.
"Italy's inquiries for barb wire, steel
bars and ship plates continue, but
ocean freights are a distinctly limiting
factor in all export trade."

REAL FIGHTING BY
U. S. IFWAR COMES
[Continued From First Page]
hold out for the thirty days which
Germany allots them, much less for
a year and a half, until an American
army is ready.
The British her say yes. They do
not underestimate the seriousness of
the German threat. They admit that
reversion to the barbarism of the
Stone Age will to the effective
ness of Germany's warfare. Many
ships will be sunk. Many women and
children, neutral as well as belliger
ent, will be murdered.
If the United States entered the war
and undertook to protect its ship
ping against the submarines it could
add to this force not only Its naval
mosquito fleet, but innumerable fast
motorhoats and limitless facilities for
producing subjnarine trapping de
vices.'
Could Blockade t. S.
One of the highest naval authorities
declared yesterday that If war wern
declared with Germany the United
States Navy would be unable to cope
with submarines that Germany could
send across the Atlantic. A blockade
of the eastern ports more effective
than that Great Britain has estab
lished about Germany would be en
tirely possible, he said.
Small Vessels the Navy's Need
The weakness of the United States
Navy with respect to dreadnauffhts and
battlecruisers would not prove the
greatest handicap to this country in
the early stages of a war, according
to the authority quoted. The short
comings of the navy that would cost,
the county dearest would be the lack
of a sufficient number of small ves
l sels, such as torpedo boats, torpedo
j boat destroyers and similar craft.
Only with a vast number of these
little warships, he declares, could a
submarine blockade be effectively
combated. Lacking them, the United
States would face a critical situation.
Its shipping would be literally at the
mercy of the U-boats.
The so-called "mosquito fleet" of
privately owned motor boats might,
perhaps, be of some use in trapping
submarines with the aid of nets, but
in general the defenses of the United
States against a submarine blockade
are so negligible as to leave the coun
try practically helpless, in the view
of this naval expert.
British Meet a Protection
The most effective protection the
United States has to guard it from the'
great dreadnaughts and battlecruisers
I of the German navy, in case of war. Is
not the American navy, but the British
navy, according to the authority in
question. As long as the fleets of
Great Britain are undefeated there is
no chance of the biff German warships
crossing the ocean to assail our shores.
But if the vaunted British naval power
should fail in a great sea engagement
or series of them the German fleets
would be free to engage the American
navy—and with a good chance of suc
cess.
"It is entirely within the bounds of
possibility for the British navy to be
defeated," declared the naval expert.
"You may call it, if yon like, a remote
chance. But, in the opinion of naval
men, it might happen. And, if the
Germans were able to defeat the Brit
ish navy, they would make short
[work of our fleets. That would be their
j next step. And, once our battleship*
were disposed of, our entire coast
would be at their mercy."
In the opinion of this expert Japan,
in spite of her connection with the
entente allies, would be eager for A
favorable opportunity to attack the
United States on the Paciflo Coast.
Bergner Named Receiver
of Fulton County Road
Charles H. Bergner, attorney of this
city, yesterday was appointed by Fed
eral Judge Charles B. Wltmer, sitting
at Sunbury, as receiver for tlieMcCon
nellsburg and Fort Loudon Railroad,
In Fulton county.
Work on the construction of the
line, which passes through Franklin
and Fulton counties, stopped several
weeks ago when Clyde Koons, the con
tractor, disappeared. This was fol
lowed by the closing of the Lemasters
National Bank, because Enos D. My
ers, the cashier, had loaned a large
sum of money to Koons. Yesterday
the People's Bank of Lemasters was
organized to take the place of the one
just closed.
W. F. Patterson, Jr., of Pittsburgh,
was the petitioner for the receiver
ship. He holds more than $30,000
worth of mechanics' Hens for work
,done on the property. The railroad,
incorporated for $150,000, is a short
line designed to connect with the
Pennsylvania line at. McConneHsburg
and with the Cumberland Valley com
pany at Fort Loudon.
