NO LET-UP IN AMERICA. GOING BACK TO SERVICE . Some merchandise used to wear too long to suit the purchaser when style was more" important than wearing quality. That was before the United States entered the war. Now however the Government is urging that Freak Styles, which are subject to frequent changes, should be avoided and that Merchandise which will wear a long time be selected with a view of econom izing so that we may win the war. Merchandise is changing from style to service very rapidly. Of course there will always be a certain element of style to consider but our Government suggests that conservative styles should prevail until the close of the war. Unless you have kept posted upon conditions ex isting in factory districts, you cannot realize what a shortage there will be as soon as stocks now on hand are exhausted. Most merchants have large reserve stocks and are earnestly trying to protect their customers against the heavy advances which must come soon, as retail prices are actually below wholesale prices in a great many lines. YOU can help merchants keep prices down By being reasonable in your demands" for service. PAY CASH for everything yoa buy. Don't ask to have small packages delivered.

Vestal and little John Vestal, great crand I By Carl D. Groat (United I'ress Staff Correspondent Washington, Jan. 7. America will push her work without a thought that peace may be drawing nearer. Secretary of War Baker and other or fic.ials held today that there must be no letting down in preparations. .Peace they said, now is up to Germany. Lloyd- George has "stated the allies' terms and insofar as unofficial expressions here go, these are America s terms, too. If Germany wants to re-form herself and accept these terms, the way is open But if she' wants to fight on, the al lies and America are fully aware of and ready for the bloody sacrifices involved, all oificials agree. They added that it would be little short of treason and foolhardy for this nation to slow up now, merely because of a growing conviction that the allies and Teutons are getting more nearly together through a process of unofticial statement of ieaee aims. True, authorities here, including men high in the military councils, uo De lieve that neace is coming up more rap idly than is the general belief. But if they had their way wholly, there wouui not even be a statement of war aims. Instead, thero would be a policy of blood and iron which would ultimately make the German lines crumble and the kaiser beg for peaee. Soise military men. however, are in clined to feel that already the war is shifting into the diplomatic field. That, by the mere tact oi a statement oi terms from both sides, a desire for peaco is manifest which sows the seed for actual negotiations. Not that they think Germany is going to accept i.ioya Georgc's terms right away, but they believe that Germany now knows that she cannot win and is willing, there fore, to go far to get an adjustment. One neutraf diplomat sized up the situation today as a case of peace in three or four months or a war of three or four years. That may be said to be more or less prevatent opinion here, though those who venture into prophecy vary in their maximum and minimum figures considerably The thoucht here is that Lloyd-George cleverly offset Germany propagando by disclaiming any intent to crush the German people while at the same time he made a distant bid for a separate Austrian peaee and skillfally maneuver ed to draw the Kussians back into the allied fold. If Austria finally heeds the cry for peace and the Kussians definitely set themselves against Germany so she can not get supplies, then will peace be lit tle short of a reality, experts say. Russian officials are skeptical, how ever, of any permanent alignment be tween the allies and Russia. Her cry is peace, peace, and regardless of what party comes into power they feel that the Slavs will stick to their separate peaee program, unless a general peaee is maneuvered iu the meantime. Officials anticipate that Germany will modify her positron toward Russia having failed to bully the Slavs at Brest Litovsk.
