Seattle has gone over the TOP and exceeded all other cities of its size in all war securities, including purchase of Government War Securities, up to the present time. However, the facts stare us in the face, some one has SLACKED somehow and some place in the War Savings Investments for 1918. Seattle’s Quota is $7,240,000, and we are over $3,000,000 behind as yet. WHY? The Industrial Committees are appealing to all members of Organ- ized Labor, through their Unions or Industrial Plan War Savings Societies, to establish a record of their purchase and pledges so as to clear the atmosphere. And who is to blame? If you have not heard about it, ask your Local Organization for this information. Remember! save, The time of activity and prosperity is the time to Systematic saving every day is to buy a Thrift Stamp. Systematic saving every week or month is to buy War Savings Stamps. YOU CANNOT AFFORD to miss this opportunity of helping your- self,and Uncle Sam with one effort. War Savings is your bank account with Compound Interesf in FIVE YEARS, and with privilege of withdrawal on 10 days’ notice. No laboring man can afford to be without one of these bank ac- counts. é When our boys at the front return with their medals for efficiency and bravery, let our records show a healthy bank account of War Securities which has assisted them to WIN, and return to their homes of Peace and Democracy. Just think, every dollar that you earn belongs to the Government; being just loaned to you for exchange accommodation. Yet the Government now offers you good interest and the Best Se- curity in the world for the loan of this same money to take care of your own blood relations at the Battle Front.

Boy and girl messenger serv- ice is thereby almost wholly eliminated. Every merchandise section has @ pneumatic tube station, whence communication may be had with the general offices, packing room, delivery room and executive offices, thus greatly facilitating service to the public. Five miles of aluminum tubing are used in the construction of this sys tem, and none of this tubing is visible on floors above the basement. PARCEL CONVEYOR SYSTEM This very comprehensive and highly efficient system embraces a concealed instilla. tion of chutes and moving belt conveyors, which accomplish quickly, quietly and without the aid of man power, every thing necessary to convey a parce! from point of purchase to its final destination in the store, prior to its actual deliv. ery to the customer. ‘This system literally per. forma all the trucking and walking formerly required to land purchases at the proper point for wrapping and deliv ery to customers, and, of course, in a fraction of the time required by the older methods. RECEIVING AND DELIVERY At no time will it be neces sary to use any part of the streets contiguous to the store for receiving or delivery of merchandise. An enclosed concourse runs through the butlding from Fifth Avenue to Sixth Avenue, along the north wall of the building. Here the incoming shipments are received and dis tributed by powerful electric olevators to the receiving rooms, and from here the de- livery wagons start upon their routes when loaded. Parcels from the various floors are dispatched via chute and conveyor belt to the rout ing and loading platforms in the subbasement. The deliv. ery automobiles are loaded at these platforms, thence hoisted by electric elevators to the concourse at street level.
