GRIFFON CLOTHES
Bud Blossoms—
and New Clothes
SlJRE signs of spring!
Warmer weather,
brighter colors in the
landscape—and the ar-
rival of the new
Griffon Models for
spring.
You can see Nature’s spring an-
nouncement all around you. This
is our announcement that the
Griffon Models for Spring are
here. Fabrics which say “spring’’
as clearly as fresh green leaves
and blossoming gardens. Fash-
ioned with a nicety of line that
leaves no room for doubt that
they are 1926 models!
Your new “Griffon" i
for you here.
BRITISH STRIKE
SETTLED WED.
LONDON, May 12.—The general
strike in Great Britain, which for
nine days struck down the industrial
life of the nation and for a time
gave rise to fears of “civil war,” end-
ed Wednesday with as dramatic sud-
denness as it began at midnight on
May 3.
After negotiations on terms sug-
gested by Sir Herbert Samuel, chair-
man *f the royal commission, the
British Trade Union Congress agreed
to call off the general strike which
had resulted in the st.ppage of work
by millions of men. In some quart-
ers the number was estimated as high
as 5,000,000.
The 1,120,000 coal miners, ii whose
behalf the general strike was called
i ar. expression of sympathy, are
still out. Determination of thei:
course will be rcached Friday, when
their natii nal conferenc. is scheduled
to meet. Premier Baldwin has an-
nounced he will seek to effect ye sump-
tion of negotiations between the coal
miners ar.d their employers.
The terms under which the general
strike was ended included resumption
of the Government coal subsidy tem-
porarily, creation of a national wage
board to revise the miner’s wages
arid reorganization of the mining in-
dustry.
Recital at High
School Building
Mrs. W. C. Walls and Miss Tom
A. Lambeth gave a joint recital at
the High School buijding Tuesday
night at 8 o’clock. The program
consisted of musical numbers by the
pupils of Mrs. Walls and expression
pupils of Miss Lambtth. Some of the
members of each class deserve special
mention for the rapid pr gres.s they
have made for the time they have
taken lessons.
Little Laurelle, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Walter Chancellor, who has been
taking only three months, played her
numbers exceedingly well. Then
Maxine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Jno. Woodall, and the little daughter
and Mrs. Will Slough, who
arc beginners in experssion, were good
in their pr: nuciation and are making
rapid progress in their work.
The program was very good and
the pupils all displayed much talent
as a :esult of the training they are
receiving from their teachers.

Would Salvage Ships Lost
Northwest.
Miles City, Mont.—Treasures of tost
ships, buried under the shifting sands
of the Yellowstone and Missouri riv-
ers, will bo sought by Elmore Ells-
worth Wenner, who has passed a
’quarter of a century gathering infor-
mation as to their location and possi-
bility of recovery.
In the skeletons of these treasure
. ships, Wenner believes, still remain
quantities of the cargoes of priceless
pelts, gold, silver, quicksilver and va
rlous other merchandise, the value of
which government reports Indicate to
approximate $50,000,000. A portion
of the cargo of one wreck, burled for
SO years, Wenner already has sal-
vaged.
Steamboatfng on the northern wa-
ters of the Missouri river began UK!
years ago, when a fleet of six river
steamers were built under govern-
ment contract for use with the ill-
fated Yellowstone military expedition
which had as its object the establish-
ment of a fortified post at the mouth
of the Yellowstone river,
One v £ these, the Thomas Jeffers an,
provided the first Missouri river
wreck nenr the mouth of the Yellow-
stone. In 1831 the American Fur com-
pany started a fleet of steamboats on
I the Missouri. Its George Washington
! struck a snag below Council Bluffs,
Iowa, and went down.
The Assinlbolne, also owned by this
company, was grounded In 1825 near
the present site of Bismarck, N. D„
with a cargo of 1,185 packs of pefts
and robes.
The Pontiac went down with a car-
go of 500 barrels of whisky, 500 casks
of wine and 500 casks of brandy, none
of which ov»r was recovered. The
Louisville, loaded with whisky, quiet-
silver and genernl stores, went down
40 miles below Sioux City. At this
same spot are eight other sunken
steamers.

Card Of Thanks
We take this method of thanking
our friends of Delta County, and es-
pecially cur neighbors in the vicinity
of Rattan for the many expressions
of love and kindness manifested dur-
ing the illness and death of our little
boy, James Marshall.
The words of sympathy spoken by
our friends, the floral offerings and
all the acts of kindness and love are
appreciated more than words can tell,
and in this h ur our hearts are too
full of sadness to make expression in
words.
We want to especially thank the
physicians for the skill and attention
displayed dunng the boy’s illness.
Eveiythixg seemed to be done by
them that was possible.
We also want to thar.k our neigh-
bors who planted our crop; for the
manifestati ns of love exhibited by
the teachers and pupils of the school.
The words of Brothers McClain and
Bennett have been a consolation to
us, and we ask that God’s richest
blessings be upon each and everyone
of our friends.
