THOMAS CHAFFED,

"The most important lesson we learned during the war was that we should take very great cure that there is no question or chance: of another," said the Prince of. Wales, addressing a demonstro- tion at Portsmouth of delegates of the Post-War Brotherhood Federa- tion.

"Another big lesson we learn- ed," he continued, "was of the amazing, advantages to be gained out of comradeship and good-will- in a time of national crisis."

Distinguished Service

Brings Rewards to People- as to Pens.

Parker Duofold helps people beat the average by doing its daily work visibly better than the average pens,

And as with this peu, so it is with men. The market for Excellence is ever active. The world has a standing order for Distinguished Service.

If you're the timber that Success

is made of, go try the pen that can speed you on your rise.

A pen with an Over-size barrel made of Non-Breakable Permanite in- stead of rubber, as foruierly. Its point is guaranteed 25 years not only for for mechanical perfection but for wear!

See this distinguished pen at the nearest pen counter. But look for the imprintGeo, S. Parker," so flatter- ing imitations can't deceive you.'

Sole Wholesale "Agents:

The Prince chaffed "Jim" Thomas on the fact that the last

Mr. Thomas's notes' mysteriously disappeared. "I hope he has kept In better hold of his notes to

night," he said. "As a matter of fact, he made a very unkind ne- cusation to me on that occasion.” (Laughter),

Mr. J. H. Thomas said he did hot believe und never had believe!! in class warfare, or that one class of the community was better than another. Referring to the dif culties which faced him in his task with regard to unemployment, he added that he could succeedi only by the co-operation and gothi will of all cinases in the country.

Mr. Neville Chamberlain re- marked that Mr. Thomas had n dertaken a big task in trying to find work for the unemployed. "Lam one of them," he contined. amid laughter, "but I don't want to take on his job." Whatever party they belonged to they all wished him well."
