TO THE FARlBNTS OF THE GRADUATES. Graduating from high school Is an Important milestone In life. The young folks of course aro chiefly In terested In the gala side of commence ment, and they are "through with" a lot of hard work. But you know they are not through with It. You know they have simply reached the front trenches of the bat tlefield of life. The period of train ing Is over. Thoy are about to begin the real work. So you ought to mako tho gradua tion present to your child more than a reward of merit for good work well done. It ought to be mdre than an ordina ry present. at should bo a gift that will make a deep Impression on tho young per son's mind something enduring that will bo onjoyed for 'many years. A good watch Is prc-emlnontly such a gift. For practical use It cannot bo sur passed. Another such glft-particularly for a girl Is a diamond. She has reach ed the age when she can wear a dia mond ring. She will never loso her pleasure In It. And ' its Intrinsic worth will Increaso with tho years. Thoso are suggestions on my part. It may be that somo other present would be better, especially If the child Is finishing grammar school. Individ ual circumstances govern each case, and you of courso are the one to de cide. But I do know that our stocks con tain many excellent graduation pres ents of tho good quality that you want, and that prices aro splendid values. You will enjoy examing goods hero and I will bo glad to have you do so whethcr-you purchase or not.
