BUYING CHRISTMAS GIFTS.


A Christmas present is 4 Christ
mas present no matter what 1t is. says
the Capital At this day II seems that
people have forgotten this fact.
II is nearing the time now to do
Christmas shopping. This has been a
prosperous year and no doubt people
will buy lavishly OF presents. A lit
tie advice is very timely Jus, now on
this score.
There isn't a person who doesn't ap-
preciate a Christmas present. II
makes the old as well as the young
heart glad and is one OF our most de-
lightful customs.
But a really worthy persons never
considers very seriously the value Of
the present in dollars and cents. a
present is a present and no matter
whether Il be Insignificant or mag
nifcent so long as II Is in good taste
II will be Just as heartily cherished as
indicative OF the thoughtfulress and
generous disposition that would nave
prompted the giving Of a more costly
one.
The tendency these days seems to
be to buy elegant presents or none at
all The consequence is that pepole
either spend a great deal more for
Christmas presents than they can
really afford or else they neglect a
great number OF those on whom they
would like to bestow gifts
Don't let this hamper you at all
II you don't want to be parsimoniuos
in giving. give great number of pres.
ents TO different persons instead Of
elaborate presents to few. In other
words say you have decided to spend
about S25 for presents. don't spend
eight or ten dollars apiece for pres
ents and only give two or three. bu,
buy neat, tasteful articles and stretch
the sum out to buy ten or fifteen pres
ents BY doing so you will make ter
or fifteen persons Just as happy as
you would two or three: you. too
will get more consolation and pleas
ure out of It.
There are lots of poor people who
have been your good friends, who not
only like you but upon whom you car
always depend for favor Instead o
conhning your presents to your owl
household just enter into the real
spirit of Christmas and make as many
OF those kind of friends happy as yot
can afford to. There is real charity il
it and yourself and your family will
get more pleasure out of IT,
Don't forget this Christmas that ;
present Is a present and is Just a.
highly valued as token of good faith
no matter what the monetary value @
il may be.

TO PUT IN BIG BRICK PLANT.
Ardmore Clay Found to Be Excellent
ENTERPRISE No. 1.

Since the c.. o. & G.. and A. & c.
railroads have been secured people
have been flocking to Ardmore from
all parts of the country looking for
place to invest their money.
Chief among these prospectors are
some brick manufacturers of Nash
vile, Tenn, who have been looking
over the field very carefully at this
place and find our soil excellent for
making brick
Then. too. these gentlemen can sec
that Ardmore has a great future and
will need a great deal of brick in IT, .
near future. Ardmore will also be a
railroad center, and the low rate Of
freight will enable these gentlemen TO
ship their brick for hundreds OF miles
and compete with other brick manu-
facturers.
The plant these gentlemen contem-
plate putting in will at first be capital.
ized at $4,000. and work will go ahead
summer and winter. In the winter time
hot pipes will be used TO dry bricE
and they can be prepared for the kiln
in twenty-four hours.
The capacity Of the plant will be
about 10000 brick per day and the lat
est improved machiney will be used.
The plant will probably give employ.
ment to 100 hands. and it is Just sncl
an enterprise as this that makes a
city.
Since tho securing OF the two new
roads this is enterprise No |.

Dun's Review says: The presidents
message is masterpiece lie is clear
candid and I mperate in his discus
sion OF great and important national
questions, some of which men in pub
lie life are inclined TO avoid. His
views about great corporate interest
and the rights of labor are honestly
stated, and there is no doubt as to his
meaning. He argues against unneces-
sarily hampering strong and forceful
men in business life. whose success
means so much to the development
of the nation-their success neces-
sarily confers immense incidental ben
efits on others. The remedy OF the
evil about which there is some cause
for complaint in the management of
the great corporations, lies in proper
governmental supervision and con
troll, and the president advises neces-
sary legislation along this line and an
amendment TO the Constitution If II
is required to meet the emergency.
