Resinol R T R P PP T PR No wonder the men are buying Bell Suits at $21. They are realiz- ing as we know and every clothing man knows that fabfics and finished goods are very scarce—there is practically none on the wholesale market —and the price we are quoting now—S$21 for Bell spring suits—is the lowest price in America today for such qualities—and the lowest price that can ever be quoted in the future. Our advice to you is to secure one of these nobby one-button sacks without delay—or some of the other equally snappy and racy Bell models—because they are selling rapidly —and you’re saving not less than $10 on every Bell Suit you buy at $21.

America Stands By Her Allies If Germany dreamed of winning a “soft” peace by playing the United States against Great Britain and France; if she hoped to dodge reparations and responsibility by aid and comfort from the Harding Administration; if she believed that the United States had already forgotten the cause to which it so lately dedicated its sons and its treasure; then, says the American newspaper press, the knell of this dream, this hope, and this belief was sounded when Secretary Hughes informed Berlin that: “This Government stands with the Governments of the Allies in holding Germany responsiblle for the war, and therefore morally bound to make reparation, so far as may be pos- sible.” These unequivocal words, remarks the Boston Transcrit (Rep.), notify the world that we are keeping faith with the Allies, and make clear to Germany that she may expect no aid and comfort from us “in her endeavors to escape the penalties of defeat.” THE LITERARY DIGEST, in the issue for April 16th, devotes several pages to a resume of editorial opinion in the United States, France, England, and Germany, upon Secretary of State Hughes’s note outlining the attitude of the United States Government toward Germany.
