THE MEN’S STOKE

when Mrs. Simpson’s statement was made last night. Far from welcoming the statement. persons close to the court called it “impudent” and “melodramatic” and expressed fear that it might influence the king in Mrs. Simpson’s favor. “About time!” exclaimed one personage close to the royal family. “It’s a great pity it wasn’t thought of before.’’ Before the statement was issued, members of the family hoped that the king’s hesitation might mean he was weakening in his attitude—and this attitude is, it is to be remembered, that he is ready to abdicate. They believed that the popular manifestations of love for him might impel him to keep his throne in the belief that the country wanted and needed him. They believed also that he was becoming convinced that all the king’s men could not defeat the government. Hence members of the royal family continued intensely anxious today in the feeling that the king might eventually abdicate. Queen Mary was reported to feel that even if the king stuck to the throne now, he would be involved in a similar emergency a few months later and that for the good of the country it would be better for him to go now unless he renounced Mrs. Simpson finally.

BANQUET IS “SELL-OUT” iruntlniiftl From I’no One) course, is only true for those who already have bought tickets for this event, inasmuch as there has been a complete sell-out of tickets for this occasion. Seats will be available, of course, for everyone who has purchased a ticket, whether they make such reservation as a part of a group or not.

And don’t forget, if you have that old party dress grandmother used to wear, or great-grandmother’s wedding gown, or if grand-dad’s cutaway and top-hat are still in existence, dress some member of your family in the outfit and help add color to the evening’s entertainment.

Members of the committee in I charge of Greencastle Day regret exceedingly that so many are being disappointed in their plans to attend ' the banquet Wednesday evening. It i.i estimated that about 200 people | who would have liked to attend will be unable to do so because of the ■ restrictions on the seating capacity in the gymnasium. Such restriction of numbers was unavoidable, how- | ever, as only 500 people can be seated in the Bowman gymnasium and yet provide ample space for serving all tables as well as for the staging j of the musical program, “A Century of Song.”

We believe our distinguished guests that will be here December 9th will enjoy the improvements in Greencastle. We would like to show everybody the improvements we have made in our plant. We are keeping up with progress. Home Laundry & Cleaners. 8-lt
