A. Buck, secretary of the Seattle Municipal Employes’ district council, will ar gue the matter for his associates. Buck points out that the rise in Prices since 1914 has always been considerably ahead of ‘the increase in wages and at the present time the cost of living is 78 per cent higher than tn the year named, while wages are onty 68 per cent higher, | “The present ‘getby wage’ as! shown by Miss Frankenfield's tig: | ures,” Buck says, “is $1,854.78 for a| man with a family of three Mu-/ nicipal employee can hardly be sald | to be receiving more than that in many instances, “Besides, the cut will be tnsigniti- | cant in reducing taxes.

Garbage Men Win a * A Point Against Cut Denying the tnformation on which the city council had acted, that they had agreed to accept a cut from | $16.25 a day to $19.25 for two men and a team, garbage collectors fought the action Wednesday with the result of effecting a compromise on $14 @ day. The $14 wage ts to go into effect January 1, 1922. By the previous arrangement the $13.25 was to be come effective now and a wage of $13 fixed after January 1, 1922. The council sliced $8,040 from the | public utilities department estimate of $48,330 by abolishing the postions ot railway construction engineer and two service inspectors and combin- ing the positions of pole inspector and outside wiring Inspector. It appropriated $31,000 to maintain a hospital for delinquent women with dineases and $3,445 to pay costs of this service during the remainder of this year. ——_— Gee, but Boldt’s Bread is good! —Advertisement (Toilet Helps You can keep your arms, neck or face free from har or furs by the oc caxional use of plain delatone, and) in using it you need have no fear of marring or injuring the skin.

Our leasing of the Victoria Shoe Shop premises, we hope, will give us the necessary means to relieve the congestion we have recently experienced. It is pleasant to think that “Sweet Sixteen’s” high favor in Seattle, as else- where, makes this expansion necessary. Remodeled and refitted, the new premises are an example of the finest in modern store installation. ! No more fitting testimonial to the satisfaction we feel can be offered than to present one of the most magnificent collections of New Fall Suits, Coats om Dresses that our New York buyers’ organization has secured for this spe- occasion. The DRESSES Conspicuously beautiful models of the new fall modes—in almost every fabric you can wish for—for street, business, dinner, afternoon, evening, travel, etc. Though worthy a price many dol- lars more, they are to be sold at only The SUITS The collection gives one a multi- tude to select from—a variety that seems to answer the demands of dress, business and travel, in a range that insures you just the suit you want—and silk lined, 4 * y S Never at the opening of a season have we seen such attractive coats —so original and piquant—so dash- ing in their departure from the part- ing modes. Coatings of the most preferred weaves and silk lined. oe AT THE CRITICAL PERIOD when the war played havoc with prices, we did not suf- fer “Sweet Sixteen” to retire nor to deteriorate. We supplied the increasing demand and continued to improve the garments. They were $16 before the war, during the war, and are $16 today.
