LOCAL NEWS - - ' w Feb. 1927 Dear Friends: Today I gave the boss a clipping from a magazine advertising a half carat diamond for a lower figure than we were celling them for. Before I got a chance to show him the ad the boss says: "I sup pose it's advertised as a 'perfect cut stone." And sure enough it wasl And 'he says: "that does not necessarily mean that it is perfect or that it is cut in the right pro portion, two of the most impor tant things that determine the value of a diamond. It's mislead ing." When you buy a diamond come in first and let Mr. Knudtson give you some pointers on how to judge a stone and show you some he has In stock. They're priced right when you consider their weight, color, make and perfection, the four factors that determine their value.

They landed laughing and joking, glad that their long Inactivity, cramped aboard ship, was over. The Japanese landing party also totals 1500, and the French, Ital ians, Dutch, Portuguese and Span ish likewise debarked strong de tuctunents. The British already have numerous forces on duty ashore. . The native districts of Nantao and Chnpel were the scene ot trouble nil day long. There was incessant rifle and machine gun fire and the occasional boom ot ar tillery throughout the afternoon. ( British Trooper Slain All the barriers between the na tlvo . and foreign . districts were' closed and heavily guarded. The foreign defenders suffered their first casualties when a. British Punjabi trooper was killed and two wore wounded by gunmen, .firing from an alleyway at the border of the International settlement. Two foreign policemen were Injured by bricks thrown from the top of a building on the Nanking road. The troubles In the native city were largely blamed upon Kuomln tang (Cantonese) plain clothes men, who attacked the police sta tions, captured several and burned one. The shooting In the Chapel and Nantao districts was believed to be chiefly the work of fleeing northern troops and of looters and other lawless elements which have full sway owing to the entire ab sence of-authority in those dis tricts. Several bullets and some shrap nel fell in the International settle ments, and one Russian civilian and several Chinese were wounded by stray shots. Fifty Chinese po lice from the Chapel district, un able to cope with- the lawless ele ment, took refuge within the for eign lines after surrendering their weapons. - ! s - Two companies of Brltsh Bold iers established positions in British-owned properties several miles beyond the settlement boundary to prevent the occupation and looting of these places by. Chinese troops. Business Paralyzed Beginning at noon, the Kuomln tang flag a red banner, with a white sun In a blue field in the up per left corner began to appear throughout the - foreign settle ments and was even flown . from atop the post office, which is again tied up by a strike. The general strike is apparently thoroughly effective. All the cot ton mills are closed down, and the transport services paralyzed. Several times this afternoon the foreign police found it necessary to charge crowds and break up gatherings which threatened trouble. . . The Cantonese troops , reached the Shanghai native city only in small numbers. Tho main force oc cupied Lunghwa and the KlangnUn nrsennli placing them in control of the city, although a few northern ers were still rry irted In the north ern districts. 1 . Thus far (7:30 p. m.), no clashes between tho Cantonese and , for eigners bavo been reported. U. S. Marines Landed WASHINGTON, Mar. 21. Ad miral Williams, commander of the Asiatic fleet, reported to the navy department today that he had land ed a force of about 1500 marines. He said the municipal council of Shanghai had declared a state of emergency, nnd the murines were lauded at its request. Landing of American marines In Shanghni Is in accordance with the policy laid down by Secretary Kel logg at the time of the original dis turbances in that city on the ap proach of nationalist forces. They are to be "employed only for pro tection of American life and prop erty within the International set tlement boundaries. Marines and bluejackets will be used to see that American rights are not violated although officials here believe that as soon as re sponsible leaders of the nationalist army establish headquarters, they will take precautions to suppress rioting or looting. The Cantonese occupation of Shanghni undoubtedly will bring the question of relations betweeD the nationalist govorument and tho western powers up for reconsider ation, but it appears unlikely that any step toward recognition of the Cantonese as the government of China Is to be anticipated in the immedlute future. All western gov ernments have dealt with tho Can tonese at Canton, Hankow and elsewhere as de facto authorities. London Sees No Danger LONDON, Mar. 21. The fall of Shanghai' to the Bouthern armies, which a month ago was viewed as an approaching calamity, now Is taken as a matter of course by the newspapers and their correspon dents. Most of them agree thnt there does not appear to be much real danger to foreign life and property in the In tot national set tlement," due to tho presence of foreign troops. If anything, it Is pointed out, tho fall of ShaHghal clarifies the Chin ese situation, but whether it will solve any of its fundamental prob lems any more than did numerous previous military campaigns in the past decade, remains problemati cal.

Partial Insurance Late reports indicate that there was no Insurance on the service garage owned by Mr. Garrison, tho ' building being new. Mot of his equipment wus saved," however. I This was wrecked by the blast be-1 fore tho fire could destroy It com- i pletely. The Churchill garage had iusur-! ance on the building, but none on the equipment, all of which waBjM lusi, uuu curs, including one line now one, to the number of six, were destroyed. Possibly half of the stock ot the Price store was saved, and this loss Is believed taken care of by insurance, tho building also being covered by somo Insurance. An additional damage was dono by tho blabt, which wrecked a largo number of windows In the town. Tho plecce of pipe which struck Billy Estes was carried a distance of 300 or 400 feet to where he Btond. BUICK SALES ARE HIGHER THAN EVER BEFORE FOR FEB With retail deliveries amounting to 14,338 carp, the month of Feb ruary Just past Bhowed the largest j Buiea yuiuiihj ever reacneii oy the Bulck Motor Company during this month, according to the announce ment of C.
