APPROACHING CRISIS
IN BUENOS AIRES
Tobacco Missing.
According to a complaint filed with
the police department today some per
son or persons, unknown at this time
to the officers, entered the storeroom
of the Wilmington hotel and appro
priated to their own use 10 caddies
of chewing tobacco. The police have
been notified to look out for anyone
showing unusual activity in masticat
ing the weed, or in any way handling
it in a manner to arouse suspicion.
Sub Operations Lessened.
Paris, June 14, via Ottawa Enemy
submarine operations have been less
ened greatly in the. western and cen
tral English channel since the block
ading of Zeebrugge and Ostend. The
number of submarines operating has
also appreciably diminished, owing to
thesevere" losses faTrecent months,
Buenos Aires, June 14. The differ
ences among the supporters of Presi
dent Irigoyen as . to the government's
position in the war are approaching a
crisis. In the chamber of deputies at
present a bill making July 14 a na
tional holiday in Argentina is being
debated with a fair chance, that it will
be passed.
The bill is bein supported by lib
eral' radicals who are friendly to the
United States and the allies and who
maintain that Ba'stihe day, July 14, is
significant to the democracies of the
world. The conservative radicals and
the clerical radicals who are friendly
to Germany, Spain and Mexico, argue
that such a celebration would offend
the"'Germans and that the holiday is
merely a pretense by the pro-allied
radicals to force the government to
sidestep neutrality.
If the bill is passed, which is be
lieved probable in political circles, it
will be up to the president to either
sign or veto i. In either case he
will have to take a definite stand.
Brief Session of Court.
When recorder's court convened to
day for the purpose of hearing the
trials and tribulations of those hu
mans who had been so unfortunate as
to get mixed up with the heavy hand
of the law, there was marched up be
fore the recorder a diminutive urchin
who admitted to the age of six. The
charge marked on the book against
him was related that he had indulged
in the favorite juvenile pastime of
"chunking rocks." The court officials
took one look at the defendant; and
just as hastily as it could be said and
written a nol pros was ordered and en
tered upon the docket, the youngster
being told to go his way and cease
throwing Tocks. Then court adjourned.
'Revenue Considered.
Washington, June 14. Revenue leg
islation and industrial activities con
nected with the war were considered
at a conference here today of the
state manufacturers' ' association.
Twenty-eight states were represented.

several trips to and from a dressing

day time to bring back wounded. On
one trip the ambulance was blown
from the road by an explosion of a
shell and he was knocked unconscious.
On recovering he returned on foot.
Although he had ot yet recovered from
a injury to his back, he wished to re
turn to duty the same day but was
not permitted to do so until the fol
lowing day."
Private (first class) Fred A. Ren
nick "On Apri,4 was ordered to drive
an ambulance to a dressing station.

hours he assisted Sergeant Need and
Corporal Belanger, of his detachment,
back to the trenches, part of the time
under the fire of a German aviator and
German shells. His energy and self
sacrificing spirit was of the highest
order and deserves the highest
praise."

Unusual Money-Saving Opportunities at The
Farley's G r e d i t S tore'
You don't pay any more for merchandise at Farley's than you do at the cash stores. You don't get anjr better
styles or bigger selections at the cash stores. Come and see for yourself. Goods and prices tell their own story.
Comparison proves everything. But there's a wonderful difference between trading here and trading at a cash store.
You don't miss the easy little weekly or semi-weekly payments, but it does hurt sometimes to lay, down the cash.
Doesn't it?
Never Equaled Opportunity for Men and Women
Men's New SumiAer Suits
. We know most men do not expect such unparalleled value-offers from a
credit house, where they pay only a little each week or pach payday. But
we are giving you these values in the way you can see the values are bona fide.
The prices stipulated bythemanufacturers are still on these garments the
same prices you find on the same makes in the cash stores where you pay
spot cash. That's one startling .fact! But there's still another fact more
stariTng: We give you full.lines and sizes to select from, and besides beat
the cash houses on new ideas and selection. Where the ordinary cash house
shows you one or two makes, we give you nearly dozen, including famous
productions.
$18.00 to $35.00
PALM BEACH AND CRASH SUITS $8.00 to $15.00
Grand Display of Women's Dresses
The wonderful assortment of sizes ranges up to 52. Large ladies never
saw such a-thrilling sight of beauty in the raging color of the season. New
York and Newport have gone wild over navy blue. We saw the sighs dawn
ing on fashion's realm before others, and the navy blues are here in startling
profusion. Not only in startling profusion, but at a figure that will make
you act quick. Comparison is all you need to understand what your oppor
tunity is. ' '
We's simply got to produce the- style and the quality. The men who get
these clothes on little payments would turn the garments back on us if we
didnt. And we are absolutely distancing all others when it comes to this
style-and-quality test. That's our success. Watch the crowds! They wouldn't
come if we didn't give values. , . . ,
