PAYS to Advertise.

On the afternoon OF July Fourth, while
Robert Wildes was hustling to supply
the crowd with score cards at Fairyiew
Park he had the misfortune to lose his
watch ard fob chain. Without great hope
of ever finding his watch again he con-
cluded to take the only method that
promised chance OF its restoration, and
announced the circumstances of his loss
by small advertisement in last week 6
issue OF the REPORTER. The ad came
under the eye Of Deputy Sheriff +. =.
Perkins Of Madison, who had picked the
watch up from the track while the horses
were scoring for the first race. AS there
was no name engraved on the watch or
chain and Mr.. Perkins did not happen to
Know the name Of the young lady whose
attractive photograph was pasted inside
the case, he had no way OF finding the
owner until the advertisement in the RE.
PORTER put him on the right track. He
was in Skowhegan, Saturday, and left
the watch at our Office to be given to Mr..
Wildes.
We are also advised that the pocket
book lost recently by Miss Kathleen Fox
of Athens, containing S3G 90 was found
within four days after the publication OF
her notice with regard to it in last week s
issue.

Like everything else, this movement
had IT, be engineered by a central
management, and Mr.. +. w. Yeager

Mr.. Steele Of that community, aud
others in different parts OF the
county, did the business. Mr.. Yea
ger is a progressive farmer In the
true sense OF the worlds up-to-date
on such things AS the scientific ar
rangement OF exhibits, and deserves
the highest commendation for the
hard work and energy bestowed upon
this undertaking, that has resulted
so gloriously for Brazos county.

DR.. Corporal took first in bis class,
also sweepstakes prize, making him
the grand champion Of his breed in
the South.
