ONE SUMMER MANY YEARS AGO this Store advertised a sale of women's fine fur Coats and Neckwear at prices that seemed impossible and created a great stir and most remarkable business. The idea surprised people. Yet it was a very simple proposition of business.

The manufacturer desired to keep his experts engaged rather than dispense with their services in the hot weather season. He lost profit but kept his experts. The people gained remarkable bargains in the finest of furs. Everybody profited. Others followed suit, recognizing the wisdom of the idea.

But no store ever equaled the values of Abraham and Straus, and we believe no store ever will. We show the models from which we will take orders. All sizes, 32 to 42 bust measure. Goods will be stored free until the Fall. The values are deeply interesting, but just as interesting is the exhibition of new styles--the very newest that will be all the vogue in the Fall and Winter.

That a storm of protest fall upon the Telephone Company if they insist upon exempting Flatbush from the benefits of the five-cent toll to Manhattan, was indicated by the attitude of the mempers of the Flatbush Board of Trade last night. At the instance of President Edward G.

Baltz resolutions were prepared and will probably be forwarded to the Public Service Commission urging them not to grant any such demand on the part of the telephone company. The members also urged that the Board of Education take action on the matter of a school for the residents of the hattan Terrace section, nearer than Public School No. 152, at Avenue and East Twenty-third street. The Board of Education has already secured a site at Avenue and East Eighth street, and it is demanded that the work of erecting a school building on it be started as soon as possible. The meeting last night, was the last before the summer vacation.
