HOWELL & KNOWLTON

Windsor, Ontario


Feature Sentiment in Jewelry Remodeling

Howell & Knowlton, Windsor, Ont., recently advertised in a space of six inches, double column, the remodeling of jewelry, under the caption—“Transformation from the Old to the New” with excellent results. “The prevailing fashions,” says this advertiser, “dictate that the wedding and engagement rings be beautifully carved. Many women are still wearing the old-fashioned plain band ring—they would get greater enjoyment from their jewelry if it were modernized—and the sentiment associated with the original is kept intact.”

SAMUEL SIMONSKY

107, Queen Street West, Toronto


Alleged Bandit Caught

Chase Follows Hold Up at Toronto Jewelry Store and Stolen Jewelry and Cash Are Recovered


TORONTO, ONT., June 1—The jewelry store of Samuel Simonsky, 107 Queen St. W., was robbed Wednesday afternoon by an alleged bandit who was arrested after a chase.

Harry and Cecil Simonsky, sons of the proprietor, were on duty, when a man who had made a previous visit reentered the store and asked to be shown some diamonds. He spent some time in examining the diamonds, and suddenly produced two revolvers, which he pointed at the clerks, forcing them to get down behind the counter where they were bound hand and foot. Having locked the front door and put out the lights, the bandit proceeded to look over the stock, selecting an unset diamond and four or five rings valued at about $2,000, and taking about $150 in cash.

He made a rapid exit. followed by one of the sons who had managed to escape from his bonds, and had set off the burglar alarm. Two detectives, who happened to be passing in a car, joined in the chase and when Simonsky succeeded in overtaking the bandit, they placed him under arrest. He had thrown away the revolvers which were afterward recovered, but the money and jewelry, it is alleged, were found in his pockets. At the station the prisoner gave his name as Wilfred Leverette, aged 22 years, and stated that he had formerly been a salesman at Ottawa.
