key. Great Britain Is at war with
these peoples, and has only made
peace with Germany. That peace was
not accomplished at Versailles, but
on January 10 last, the date being
fixed by an order In council. This
order has already been tested and ac
cepted In the London high court of
justice. A ault was brought to com
pel fulfilment of an obligation "six
months from the dale of the signing
of peace between Great Ilritain ana
Uennanv." The court decided that
peace was accomplished by the order
In council ana tnat tne signature ui
the treaty of June 28, 1919, did not
terminate the state of war. And the
date when the whole war will be over
for Great Britain must also ne nxn
by order In council. That will not
take place until the last of the
treaties of peace baa been signed ana
ratified.

To Our Customers:--
The only way to paint economically Is to FORGET GALLON
PRICE and figure cost by area cover and years of life.
SWP covers one-third more area than paints which are cheaper
per gallon. It lasts twice as long without re painting, so re
quires hair the material and labor costs.
On that basis, 8WP Is the cheapest per gallon outside paint you
could buy.
SWP Is the best prepared bouse paint. Thnt Is why wo sell It.
Now Is the time to consult us about your houso painting.
Prepare to do it this fall before the rains fill the wood with
moisture. Oil and water do not mix well and It will be better
to fill cracks, crevices ana exposed pores of wood with llnsoed
oil and pigment now while water Is absent.

there was nothing In the world he
