YANKS ARE GALLED "MAGNIFICENT" BY LONDON NEWSPAPERS

! ONDON, July 20. Correspondence of The Associated Press. The provisional regiment of American soldiers who followed General Perching in the Peace Day procession was the first sample of American fighting troops to march in London, Other organizations Been here had been on their way to the battlefields, while these men were returning. "Here were the Americans in steel helmets, marching in companies eight abreast with bayonets fixed," said the Dally Express. "They were as Jovial as any when the procession halted, for a time, but while they marched their faces were as serious and as immobile as the gravest of graven images. They made a profound impression on the onlookers. Their marching was Roman in its iron sternness and precision." "A magnificent regiment it was," said the Dally Telegraph, "young men all of them and the quintessence of the alert and lithe. Khaki clad, in brown steel helmets, they looked most workmanlike. "How magnificently they marched, swinging past In perfect alignment, with a long, easy stride, heads held high and shoulders squared," said the Daily News. They are greeted vociferously with as good cheering as I ever remember having heard in London." "Indomitable Look." "There was a grim, indomitable look about Pershing's meD," said the Daily Sketch, "an effect greatly heightened by their shell helmets, and it made all the more wonderful the burst of clear color which followed as their massed banners came by. Old Glories, along with the rest, held American fashion so that the fabric flew freely and no 6hred of color was lost. The cheering of the crowd turned at the sight to a great Ah of delight. Except for the passing of the massed colors of the Guards with their laurelled staffs, it was the most picturesque moment of the procession." "'Good lod Yanks,' thus are the Americans affectionately if somewhat familiarly greeted," said the Morning Post in its story of the procession.

Special Sale of Metal Lamps

IT Is quite an unusual event for any store to stage a metal lamp sale in the face of present market conditions, but we were very fortunate In securing a shipment before the advance, enabling us to place upon these lamps prices fully 25 less than the present market prices. There are so many lamps included that we do not have space to feature any particular one, but this should not be necessary when we frankly state that prices are less than regular prices. Many of these lamps are on display in our windows. Priced from $7.50 to $25.00.

WE recently secured a large quantity of these dressers at a very favorable price and, by the way, this price has advanced 20 since our order was placed, but we are giving our customers the advantage of our having seeurcd these dressers at the old price, and they will go priced at $22.50.
