TO OUR EMPLOYEES: We respectfully ask the co operation of all employees to help us rush and complete ships for our government. The delay In build ing even one ship may cost many lives and the hesitancy on any one's part to fail to perform his bit ln this great War is beyond the comprehension of man. If our local boys who have given up everything and now occupy the trenches shedding their blood for our safety and liberty could but learn of our hesitancy In ship con struction it would cause a gloom of hatred In their hearts for their own country. This is not the time to tarry over trivial matters, loy alty and true fellow feeling Is what every person should possess. Bo master of your individual self; be master of your own mind; be loyal and sincere. We are all laboring for the common good, each one in bis separate line. Let all enterprises prosper and pro gress and you will receive your share. We cannot deny the right of work to any man, whether he be of one nationality, church, lodge or organization. Our yard la open to all those who wish em ployment and all those who dis play the proper and loyal feeling. ST. HELENS SHIPBUILDING CO., H. P. McCormlck, Mgr. The S. P. & S. R. R.

Teach your dollars to have more cents. In The Respectable Dollar The tongue of the slanderer has ever been prone to wag loosely. The overworked dollar has received more than its share of his vituperation. The false light in which the dollar has beer shown has made it quite un popular in some places. ' We can still believe in the existence of the "honest dollar. Send your dollar or dollars to us and we will treat them with respect and give them a real opportunity to vindicate themselves. ' ' There are few places where the dollar can make the showing that it can in our store. Respectfully, A. S. HARRISON Phone 27 We buy and sell for less. east.
