K litor Tlie Chronicle: ? A? is
well known to uh nil, tlju legislature
at its recent session passed an net
requiring h vole upon live question
of tlu> of liquor in ev?ry ? J i m
pensarv county in llie State. Tne
election in to bo he id on t h ?? third
Tuesday In August next. The rt
Bull of thiH election in of groat im
portance to the people of our com
m u nity.
The question to bo deter. nined i.?,
shall Kt tfdiHw county c>ntinue to
sell liquor contrary to the ex prcs ><"d
will of her eiitzens at the ree?- n t el. o
tion, or Hhail w?* ngnin declare for
prohibition, force liquor from our
county and enjoy "the fruits and
blessings of our victors?
I do not propose to discuss this
question in any of itn phases at thin
time, but the purpose of thin loiter
Is to emphasize the importance of
the issue, ant to ch!1 upon the pro
hibitionists to appoint a day for n
meeting at the court h o use in Canv
den thut they may organize into an
effective working force. We esn
not expect the best results without
effort, organized etfoit, ?r.d we
should not list' content until the
fight for freedom from the thraldom
of liquor is carried into every pre
cinct of the county.
1 suggest, Mr. Kditor, that Sat
urday, May 15th, be appointed fori
the prohibition mass meeting tn
Camden, and that eleven o'clock a.
id. be the hour for convening
If this dale for any reason
should not bo desirable, then sug
gest a suitable day in the near fu
ture, and lei us get to work.
It is a great cause, and worthy
^ -of supreme effort, and I trust that
every community will be reprisent

We Like To T^alk Quality When It
Comes To Men's Clothing.
'?Cheapness," says a noted writer, 4iis a little better tban
passing counterfeit money, ? but only a little. It robs your
customers of the value they have been lead to expect they
would receive from their purchase, and it usualty ends by rob
bing you ot customers. Quality is really the only foundation
upon which to build a business, because it gives customers
their money's worth, lull value, cent for cent, and it brings
them back season after season."
THAT IS WHY WE TALK QUALITY AND SELL QUALITY I
Take our showing of High Art Clothing, for instance, tor
Kail and Winter: go through our immense stock, pick out
any suit containing the High Art label, and you can feel as
sure of your money's worth as with a government bond, for
High Art Clorhing is "quality" clothing made inequality"
shops, by "quality" tailors, sold, by ' quality" stores, and worn
by men of quality.
There is eubstancial worth in High Art frabrics
There is correct fashion in High Art styles
There is lasting shape in High Art workmanship
There is a guarantee with the High Art label
There is money's worth in High Art prices
These prices send a hufry-call to all
value-seeking buyersl
