Seventeen soldiers and civilians were arraigned before U. S. Com-missioner L. J. Maveety last week on various traffic charges.

Six were ticketed for running stop signs, one for speeding, and one who carried no insurance was accused of causing an accident.

Unauthorized use of government vehicles was charged to two, and others were cited for improper parking.

C. A. OLSON THIS IS FOR MOTHERS AND FATHERS!

One of the happiest, and per-haps saddest times of a parent's life is the day when that boy or girl of yours, in cap and gown, gets the diploma and no longer can be looked upon as "our little boy" or "our little girl."

Yes, graduation time is a happy time .. Yet p~rents are strange in therr emotions some-times and, as they do at the wedding of their son or daug~ter there's likely to be a mist of 'tears in their eyes because they are "losing" their children to the big, wide world.

When a boy or girl is gradu-ated from high school or college, however. your love flows ?ut and you want to do somethmg memorable. So you buy ~ ruce graduation gift-and . this of course is where I come mto your picture.

For him we have an exten?ive stock of fine watches pnced from $25.00 ... silver and gold-backed toilet sets - traveling clocks -cuff links - tie pins and many other appropriate tl}ings.

For the sweet girl graduate we have many things too. Beau-tiiul wrist watches, silver and gold toilet sets, costume jewelry and other things she'd love t o get.

Come in today and browse around. You'll find what you want, and don't forget our easy credit terms.
