WORRYFRANCE
Public Is Divided Over Re
sumption of Business
With Enemy
Paris, Oct. 2. —The Impending re
sumption of commercial relations
with the enemy of yesterday is caus
ing the French public at large a
good deal of misgiving. Many
would keep the German out at all
cost, but cooler heads realize that
France cannot afford to close the
door upon a customer of a billion
francs annually. There is however,
a fairly unanimous feeling that if
■the German is to come back to
France, he must come back in some
recognizable shape and not dis
guised as too often before.
Incidents such as the following do
not serve to put the public mind at
ease. A woman of good social stand
ing of Lille recognized yesterday, in
the person of a cashier in one of
the big department stores of Paris,
a former German officer. She had
good reason to remember him as
one of the invaders who had been
quartered upon her home in Lille.
Challenged as to his identity the
man stoutly denied his Teutonic
nationality. He spoke French per
fectly; his papers were to all ap
pearance in order, and the accuser
at first found scant credence on the
part of the management. Then she
remembered that the man had once
boastfully exhibited his arm, on
which the portrait of the former
German Emperor was tattooed. The
cashier officer was dismissed and the
newspapers are now demanding
that employers shall be held re
sponsible for the civil status of their
employes.

That Counts
ONI RACTORS and builders are be
coming more exacting in their de
mands every day.
They are constantly looking for lumber
that is well seasoned, easy to work, easy on
tools, takes paint and stain readily and
holds it.
We've been in business long enough to
know good and bad lumber. Quality counts
in lumber. Quality in lumber is as impor
tant as quality in other material—don't
forget this. <
Some day you'll build. See that the
lumber comes from UNITED.

In Five Years
No Stewart Has Worn Out
In more than 500 American cities, on hundreds of
larms, and in 27 foreign countries, thousands of
Stewart trucks are daily proving their reputation for
reliability and economical performance. They cost
less to buy. run and maintain because of simplified
Stewart design which has done away with all need
less and complicated parts, thereby cutting down
your tire, oil and gasoline bills.
One of the many satisfied owners writes:
"We have been operating a
Stewart for over two and one-half years,
running it at an average of 40 miles' each
day and have only spent $BO.OO on re
pairs. We average 14 miles to the gal
lon of gas and get better satisfaction than
we ever had with any other make."
