(Successors to G. P. Eastwood)
London, April 24. The greatest
modern naval battle in history is
brewing in the North sea. The heav
iest clash known to present day naval
forces, attended by enormous destruc
tion of men and ships, is inevitable,
according to views expressed in Brit
ish naval circles.
British naval men are not taking
the German threats to at last "come
out" and dobattle without a certain
amount of seriousness. The British
fleets have been ready for months and
are still ready. The Germans, ac
cording to views expressed here, also
are ready, awaiting the opportune
time to retrieve, if poible, the lost
German naval prestige.
In what forces and with what units
the Germans will emerge from behind
the mine fields of Heligoland and the
Kiel canal is not ventured in the fore
casts of the British. But it is posi
tively stated that with whatever forcF
Germany desires to send the fleet of
the British navy will be prepared to
deal with them in a manner commen
surate to the task.
Reports of recent activities at the
various German naval centers, coupled
with the veiled threr.ts that emanate
from semi-official German newspapers,
indicated that the Germans would at
tempt to make their long expected na
val offensive within a short time.
New and unexpected types of German
waships, accompanied by mosquito
craft and a great fleet of Zeppelins
overhead, are not excluded from what
the British navy expects. The much
reported "monitor submarine,' which
mounts heavy guns fore and aft, also
may appear.

Talk About Economy
Listen to This:
The house shown above was built in Ded
ham, Mass., in 1636 two hundred and
eighty years ago. It's still standing still
good.
Here's the reason
PINE.
This is only one of many old houses built
of WHITE PINE that have withstood cen
turies of weather exposure.
it is built of WHITE
Whit
Pisne
long ago won a reputation with local builders.
All who ever used it remember its wonderful service. They still talk
about its superior working and wearing qualities still regret they "can't
get that kind of lumber nowadays."
But here's news: We can now supply the genuine old-time WHITE
PINE.
Get this good old wood that kowns no equal for all exposed surfaces
the wood that "stays put." No other like it that we know of. Will
never warp, twist, sag, crack, swell or shrink, even in closest mitres and
delicate mouldings.
You can't beat WHITE PINE. And of all woods it's the most satisfac
tory to work with saves time and labor and makes a job you will take
much pride in.
We carry these items in stock and can get any others you need:
1- inch Finish 4 to 20-inches wide, all lengths
lV-mch Finish 6 to 20-inches wide, all lengths
12-inch Barn Boards 10 to 20-inch lengths
2- inch Finish from 2x4 to 2x12
We guarantee that this is the real WHITE PINE the kind you've read
about. Though it's not the lowest in price, it's positively the least ex
pensive, service and satisfaction considered.
Come in and look over our stock and talk with us about
your building needs.
