The most important announce. ment coming from the jewelers this year is one made today by S Burnett Mr. Burnett stated that his concern will place its entire stock on the market at reductions ranging from one-fifth to one-balf. This is as a matter of self-preser- vation, The fact that the jewelry business generally is demoralized, | jowinggto the unusual conditions| caused by the European war has made sales of one sort or another common. “We do not propose to sit idly |by and be undersold by any con- cern in this city, We have as sembled a stock of $125,000 worth | of fine jewelry which has been marked at our usual fair prices. We had hoped this year to sell our share at normal profits. Condi tions make this impossible; there: fore we shall sell everything in the |store at reductions ranging from one-fifth to one-half. The sale will open on Saturday morning. Every-| thing will be marked in plain fig ures, Hverything will be guaran teed, and Old customers or new ones who buy during this sale shall have not only our assurance of quality, but of low prices. They can bring the purchases back and et their money if they find they can do better anywhere else, A stronger statement for this sale we do not know how to make. The store will be closed on Friday, in order to give our helpers an op. portunity to put sale prices on ey- erything, The original tickets will remain intact and unchanged, The |sale prices wfl be marked with red.

REQUIRES SUrPORT OF OR a gas company or any other public service company to pursue a_ progressive policy of management and development, re- quires the moral and financial support of the people. Without these such a policy could not be maintained nor could the people themselves be well served. In addition to the steadily rising cost of doing business, or operating expense, the company must continually find large sums of new capital with which to build extensions in a rapidly-growing city like this. It is dependent for its ability to operate under a standard of first-class service, and for the credit to procure needed capital, on the good will and patronage of the public. Both sides are mutually interested In Seattle, the gas company has adhered to a policy of such progressive character that it is noteworthy among all the cities of the world for the amount of mains it has laid, for the modernity and completeness of its works, and for the cheap- ness of gas here, considering all conditions. At the present rates, every citizen of this city is enabled to enjoy all the advantages of good gas service with economy and satisfaction, SEATTLE LIGHTING COMPANY PHONE: MAIN 6767,
