F., and it will make a special bid for the outfitting of veterans upon their discharge. It will aim to supply the returned men with everything they need in appar: el, at pr.ces that give the ex-soldiers full value for their money. The men behind the new store, which will op- en Saturday, Feb. 8th, are ~x-Lieut. D, C. Spears, C.E.; ex-Lieut. J, S. MacDonell, and ex-Corp. Chas. Hicks of the 2nd Battalion.

Mr. Spears said: "This store will be operated by ¢eterans, for veterans. Our manager; ex-Corp.
