"State Oil" Gets Some Men Into Trouble Fake tree Inspectors and sprayers who have recently been working in the eastern part of the State are being hunted djwn by the Pennsylvania De partment of Agriculture and one ar rest and conviction in Philadelphia has been made. Some of the men are claiming that they are representatives of the De partment of Agriculture and are using nui they name as "State Oil" for tree treatment. They usually follow by charging big prices for the work. Secretary of Agriculture Charles E. Patton wants to warn all persons against such imposters and has or dered Economic Zoologist J. G. San ders to prosecute all cases where such false pretense has been practiced. In Allentown. Easfon and Reading an other band of tree doctors have been injecting lard into trees and many are using inferior spraying dope. Zo ologist Sanders iesires to have re ports sent him at Harrisburg of per sons representing themselves as State agents or persons offering to doctor trees, of whose practice there is any doubt.

A state of siege has been declared in the whole Greek department of Attica, including Ath ens and Piraeus, according to a dis patch from Athens to the Exchange Telegraph Company. ' —v Newlywed Slackers Cannot Escape Army Washington, Aug. 3. Provost Marshal General Crowder sent a telegram last night to Governors of all States which is relied upon to check in some measure the pres ent rush to secure exemptions on the ground of recent marriages. It read as follows: "The selective service law does not requite discharges in all cases of technical legal deponder.cy, but only permits discharges where, in view of dependency, a discharge advisable. Local boards may well hold that a marriage hastily consummated recently, and especi ally one consummated by a person after he has been called to present himself for examination to deter mine his fitness for mllltarv ser vice. does not create a status of dependency In which it is advis able to grant a discharge. "It Is to be expected that local boards will exercise this full dis- 1 cretlon In cases where they are ! convinced that ur.'crupulous per sons have thus violated the pnn- I i iples of the selective service law ! in the hope of escaping a duty that Is rightly theirs and of pass- 1 ing that duty to some one else." "The Live Store" ' "Always Reliable" The overwhelming "Big Business" we are having at this "Live Store" compelled us to close all day Thursday and nearly swamped us "yesterday" on the opening day of our greatest Semi-annual Mark-Down Sale of All Spring and Summer Stocks From a purely financial standpoint, it So trying to forget that the market 1 would be impossible for us to sell these goods at a price of our merchandise is from one-third to one penny less than our regular prices. . But having kept our stock more to-day than when we bought it and still advancing up to the high-water mark until now, leaves every advantage by leaps and bounds with a scant regard for cost or the actual for our rn.fnmor. fk orvi u ami . i_* j c u j* involved, we now <;ut our regular low prices so deep that an for our cu.tomer, by g,v.ng them the best kind of merch.nd..e ab.olutely complete clearance must result in the brief time left obtainable to choose from at honest reductions. f or this purpose. tF or while our Half-yearly Sale is not first in point of jf time it is easily first in importance, affording styles, varieties, qualities and actual money-savings, such as no other store cares to offer except perhaps (on paper) Remember that this is our own complete, new and high-grade stock with all || reductions from our former low prices, and just the same care and attention given you as though you were paying us a profit on your purchase. .
