YOUNG men's styles, as we show them, are not especi
ally different from styles for older men; there's a
smartness of color in the fabrics that older men may think a
little too loud ; there's a snap to the cut of the garments that young fellows
particularly like; we enjoy supplying these young men with such clothes;
made for us by
Hart Schaffner & Marx
the greatest style creators of all ; new models in Shape-maker and Varsity ;
new shapes in the two or three- button-sack with long roll lapels; we're mak
ing this a young men's store.
B . t not to the exclusion of older men; we're here to see that you're
well dressed at every age; we have styles and patterns for every taste. We'll
fit and satisfy any man..
Suits $ 1 8 and up to $25
Other makes at $8.50, $10 and up to $1 6.50. The very best values you
ever saw offered at the prices.

Probably ono of tho fastest ama
teur games evor played on the local
diamond, was that played Friday,
whon Hickman chalked up 9 goose
eggs as Cayco's end of a 7 to 0
score.
The game waa a pitcher's battle
between "Cherry Red," for Hickman,
and White, for Cayco. "Cherry"
struck out 10 and White 9, Cherry
did not issue a single free pass and
White only one. In tho -hit depart
ment Cherry came off better, allow
ing only three hits, while Hickman
bats found White safely 7 times.
Hickman: Hill, Owens, Oliver,
Caldwell, Wright Birens, Naylor, Rico
and Cherry.
Cayce: R. Johnson, Brown, E.
Hammonds, Stevenson, Forest, H.
Johnson and Edmlston.

Judging from tho number locusts
that are swarming in this section, It
must be locust year. These strango
insects have a way of visiting us

prophetic prcdictltng either war or
peace before tholr return again. On
the tip of the wing will always be
found tho letter "P" or "W.'' The
former Indicates peace, tho latter war
This year the locusts' wings show a
very Plain "W."
