To prove his statements about
the hams he is advertising in the
News, grocer G. G. Palmer, of
Chambersburg, sent the editor
and his wife a big slice. It was
fine and we are indebted to Mr.
Palmer for a nice breakfast.
He said "You'll want more."
And he guessed rightly.
It is to be hoped that your au
tomobile will keep a-goin' but
if it should take a notion to He
down on you, just step in to the
nearest phone and call up Roy
Palmer on the Breezewood Bell

A. B. Ross, of Bedford county
is endeavoring to interest the
people of that section and of Hun
tingdon county, in the use of a
public canning and evaporating
plant the same as the News has
been doing for Fulton county.
Evaporation .is so much cheaper,
and cans will be so high priced
that we lean toward the evapora
tion idea. Then, too, as we said
several times, France and Eng
land have appealed to the United
States to send evaporated goods
in preference to canned articles
because of the ease and economy
of handling them while being
sent to the trenches,

Beauty a Duty.
If Nature's prodigal examples
may be taken as a message to us
to cultivate the beautiful in our
homes and lives, then there is
no limit to the efforts we may
make to accomplish that end.
Why the profusion of bloom and
enchanting foliage, if not to
teach gentleness, refinement and
Godliness?

The Correct Thing in
Ladies' Footwear. . .
Your pretty frocks will scarcely bo comp'eto without ihe
correct slipper or pump. In your grand mother's day, with
just the tip of her shoes peeping frrm under ber gown,
footwear played no such important part in the scheme of
correctness.
For you, however, Dime Fashion has decreed that your
entire slipper be visible. So you see you must be more
than ever particular in choosing footwear for summer.
There is nothing prettier than a white pump, and it is so
appropriate the wholo summer long. Wo have them In
kid buck-nu buck and fibrics made plain, with neat
narrow per rotations and some with small, dainty orna
ments at tho instep. They are made with h'gh and medium-high
heels and wood with leather covering.
Mako it a point to come in today if possible, or tomorrow
anyway, just to slip on your s z3.
