It Is an unfortunate fact that many men who are merely the business heads of Diamond firms delegate to themselves the title of "Dia mond Expert." As a result, they are likely through ignor ance and Inexperience to sell you a diamond that Is slightly imperfect and off color and call It "white and perfect." Correct diamond grading re quires a broad experience, a vast knowledge of diamond values and an instinctive judg ment of stones based on prac tical handling of them. Our diamonds are marked in plain figures as to color, grade and price. We give a binding guarantee with every diamond that you buy from our Jewelry depart ment Unless you are an expert yourself you must depend with fullest confidence upon the dia mond seller's grading. Therefore, be on the safe side. Come to the Young & McCombs store where you are protected by guarantee that we will any time within one year from the day of purchase buy back your diamond and pay you cash less 10 per cent of price paid for it.

The einnloyes f tit out on strike Friday following the aecident and adopted a resolution to tile effect that they would not return to the shops until th two cranes which were de clared unsafe were taken down. The workmen stated that the cranes were "death dealers" and had caused many accidents. After the catastrophe when the workmen demanded that th. cranes he removed Superintendent Seidel had the wheels of the cranes fitted with anges as a safety precaution. The employes declared that the Mg cranes were still unsafe whether the wheels had flanges or not and as serted that they would stand pat in their refusal to return to work until the "death dealers" were placed on the ground The employes won out after a hard fight and work was re sumed this morning.

The engine and mail car were all that remained on the tracks. Al though the train, which was west bound, was traveling at a 40-mile an hour clip, nevertheless none of the derailed cars turned over and to this is attributed the fact that no one was injured. The track was torn up for a distance of 1.200 feet. The wrecking crew from Rock Island was rushed to the scene and two hours after the wreck the train was on its way again and the line was cleared. The east bound track was not affected by the derail ment.. The wre'ked train was No. 7, west bound out of Chicago. All the Argus. news ail tbe time The ..191" ..1917 j NEW JERSEY. James E.
