J.C. PENNEY CO. SHOWS 16.28 PER CENT FOR YEAR Gross sales of the J. C. Penney Company for the mon f h of December of this year were $25,103,925.33, as compared with gross sales for the same mnoth in 1927 of $21,799,521.30, revealing a gain of 15.16%. The to tal for the year is $176,697,622.02, or a gain of 16.28% as compared with total sales of $151,95„865.20 in 1927. In commenting on the year's in crease, Mr. A. L. Roser, manager, said; "We feel that the increased sales over last year to the amount of $24, 739,756.82, or 16.28% is a splendid showing for our 1023 stores in op eration at the close of 1928. "While the sales for the year were less than the quota, we believe this fact may be attributed to the un sea» sonable weather. The increases made by the stores in operation for a year or more reflect a satisfactory condi tion throughout the country. Due to the broad scope of our store units which are located in every state but Delaware, the picture presented is a good cross-section of the economic situa tioh. "In line with our program to open 500 new stores in the next twelve months, as recently announced, the Company expects to do well in excess of $200,000,000 in sales in 1929."

Q. ÇANîWirHFÇ I l üAIlUWlLnllO i ; JOHN ARTHUR STAHLBERG I 0 0M There is a man who, being subject to hay fever, asserts that he is relat-: ed, by his nose and eyes, to Paavo Nurmi and Charlie Paddock. i t .j ,, ! By the way there are a great many people who have athletic noses at this time of year. "Keep an eye on Congress," advises; a farm paper, but forgets to tell! whether this is suggested as a good substitute for vaudeville or as a new cure for insomnia. Whenever I hear of a young woman' ....... , . f, , a ., who is inclined to complain that "the boys always get too serious," I can not refrain from hoping—fervently hoping—that she may some day meet a man who will take her not in the least seriously. This is not a cruel hope, but a humanitarian one, looking to the good of her soul. A young man and his young wife drive into the county capital of an ev ening. They park before the postof fice and the young man steps in to get the mail. Then they sit for a while reading letters and papers Along comes a policeman .and flashes a light. "Hullo!" says he. "Maybe you thought I wouldn't know you, sittin' back here, huh? The ques tion occurs; Are there parking time limits on Plentywood side-streets, and or does a Plentywood cop actually suppose that anyone ever gives him a thought. Is it possible to imagine, without chuckling, any sane person sitting down to think about a member of Plentywood 's police force? Someone objects: But perhaps the stout prop of public morality suspects the young couple of petting? Hor rible thought! Sinister suspicion! Shouldn't wonder if it were well founded! Your pardon, Senor Police man; my mistake! But what if they were petting ? For the land's sake, let them pet! Literally for the land's sake. I assert and 1 maintain that it is utterly impossible I for any husband, young or old, to fondle his wife, young or not quite so young, at the wrong time, or in the wrong place. If every Plentywood huslband would take pleasure in giving his OWN wife an occasional surreptitious hug, and if every Plentywood wife would feel a glow at his doing so, Plentywood's maiden ladies would have less cause to blush at Plentywood gossip. My New Year's Resolution; During 1929 I will shoot, tomahawk, strangle and otherwise inconvenience any im pertinent ass who attempts to poke his elongated snout into my personal affairs. \ Look!
