Well, Here They Are
Our 1924-25 Bargain Offers
AFTER much wrestling with the o ther publishers we are able to an
nounce what we believe to be the best list of clubbing combinations

tinct saving to every subscriber.
When we began these negotiations, it appeared that all prices would be
much higher this year than previous.

volume of business for other papers, some of the publishers saw the light and
at the last minute made price reductions which make our clubs even more at
tractive than in the past.
It is true that we have no more A-4’s with nine papers included for only
$1.50, but when it comes to class, coupled with economy, you’ll find the real

WEWE,®
Sil ESME M
NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—Although
the Dawes reparation plan has been
in operation but a short time there
“more hope, more good will more
charity in Europe than there hao
been for ten years, at least, if not
almost from time immemorial,” Sir
Esme Howard, British ambassador
to the United States, declared in an
address here today at a luncheon ot
the New York Board of Trade and
T rahsportation.
Speaking on the general subject of
economies in international politics
and international trade as a factor
for peace, the ambassador also re
ferred to past activities of certain
concession hunts and company pro
moters in world fields which some
times have threatened the peace of
the world. He declared that there
is “only one way to eliminate this
possible danger to peace and good
will, and that is by the strict appli
cation of the American doctrine of
the ‘open door.’ ”
“If there is one thing we have
learned during the last few years, ’
he said, “it is the necessity of recog
nizing the value of economies in in
ternational politics. Nothing has.
I believe, ever so brought this
home to the world as the struggle
over the Dawes reparations scheme
which brought the whole question
out’of the murky atmosphere of sen
timent and politics down onto the
bedrock of hard economic fact and
proved to those interested that it is,
when you come to dealing in sums
for reparations, almost as difficult
to receive them without upsetting
the economic apple cart as to pay
them.
Surfeit May Prove Indigestible
“Even now there are many who
believe that the payment of the sums
fixed by the Dawes plan may pro
duce economic convulsions in the
creditor countries. That is a point
of view which even the greatest
financiers at the Paris conference
barely hinted at; but now the doctors
are agreed that a surfeit of gold or
goods may prove as indigestible to a
nation as a surfeit of mince pies at
Christmas to a schoolboy.
“There is not one of us, I venture
to say, who did not wish from his
whole heart that France might be
completely and fully indemnified for
the great losses she suffered in the
war, even though we might not agree
exactly as to the methods. Now we
have had the best financial doctors
in council and they have prescribed
a remedy; and the different patients
have had the good sense to try the
cine prescribed.
“Already the effects of this are
visible, although the plan actually
has been in operation only a few
days. There is, I venture to say,
more hope, more good will ami more
charity in Europe than there has
been for ten years at least. I am,
I fear, a natural optimist, but when
I read the speeches of the various
statesmen at the opening of the fifth
assembly of the League of Nations
I could not help feeling that even
those who might disagree with some
of the things’ they said must be
convinced that they, one and all,
are inspired with a genuine, heart
felt desire to establish a reign of
peace on earth, and were not pay
ing mere lip service to the cause
of peace.’
“In my opinion, the statesmen of
Europe have shown by their public
utterances that they are more ear
nest and truly determined than ever
before to lay the foundation of an
enduring’ peace among nations.
“Peace —lasting, enduring, is the
greatest objective of any statesman
today. War—modern war—can be
only destructive and ruinous in an
ever-increasing degree. It is your
business—you who are Interested in
world commerce and affairs—to see
to it that your business is not such
as to endanger peace and good w.ll
among nations.
Quotes Coolidge
“I should like to quote some words
of the president of the United States
in a recent speech. He said:
“ 'lt is no part of public policy,
as the American people now con
ceive it, to teax - down legitimate and
useful business. But it is their firm
determination that business forms
and methods shall be subordinated
to the public interest.’
“But if business forms and meth
ods shall be subordinated to the pub
lic interest at home, how much more
important is it that they should be
so subordinated abroad, where the
clash of competition may easily pro
duce, ill will and complications with
other countries, and so endanger
that will to peace which we are all
agreed should be the principal aim
of all.
“Before the war, governments of
many countries were, in my humble
opinion, far too much inclined to
push with all the strength they could
the interests in foreign countries cf
concession-hunters and company pro.
rnoters of their own nationality. It
may be said that this was one of
the principal causes of the late
wa r.
“Certain concession-hunters have

Nooks of Spinster’s
Home Yield Fortune
After She Expires
WINCHESTER, Va„ Oct. 22.—A
bonded caretaker guards the resi
dence properly here of Miss Martha
Shumate, wealthy spinster who died
last week, after the discovery of a
hoarded fortune stuffed and crammed
in nearly every nook and cranny of
the house.
The guard was established when
crowds of persons lured by the re
ports of hidden treasure threatened
to overrun the premises. Bank of
ficials today admitted that the wom
an had drawn several thousand dol
lars from hex - accounts recently to
distribute in modest bequests among
her friends. It also became known
that hardly a receptacle in the house
has failed to give up money. Clocks,
picture frames, covered plates and
cracks and crevices poured out old
gold and bank notes. Much of the
gold coin is said to be of ancient
vintage; many pieces were from Cali
