the warm winter has not been good
for the clothing business and the

they would rather cut out the profits
on this line than carry the goods
over. 1t is good business for them.
and it will be good business for the
man who needs an overcoat to buy now.

The Denison City basketball team
played the West Side town basketball
team at Vail Jan. 3lst. The final
score stood 81 to Is in favor of West
Side. The other team played the
better game and the home boys feel
we'll satisfied with the showing made.
Denison may we'll feel proud of its
team. and with the showing made.
as West Side has one of the best
teams in the state.
Some of the boys belonging to the
fire department have started gym
nasium at the city hall. The boys
think that it will not only make them
better fremen. but also be of benefit
to them in other lines. The boys
have been practicing nightly and the
town people may have an opportunity
of seeing the firemen of Denison &C
complish something IN the way of
athletics besides fight fire.
1t has been rumored that on ac-
count of the cracking of the plastering
inside of the opera house it may not
be used any more for playing basket
ball. This is only one of the many
reasons why Denison should have a
place where indoor athletics may be
carried on during the winter months.
The basket ball fans have had a
real treat this winter. in the way of
seeing good playing and it would be
great disappointment if Denison's
splendid team was compelled to dis
band for the want of place to play.
We are glad to announce that it is
not true as first stated. that w. D.
Faus formerly Denison's expert and
we'll known cement contractor. had
an operation performed while in the
hospital at Council Bluffs. Mr.. Faus
states the reason for not having the
operation performed was, that the
doctors were unable to agree as to
the exact nature of the trouble. And
w. D. wisely concluded to take no
chances with the knife of the surgeon
under the circumstances. Mr.. Faus
is now able to be around and work as
usual. During his illness his brother
C. o. Faus attended to his cement
gang. so he did not have to shut
down work.
The members of the, local camp of
the Woodmen of the World are plann-

ladies that the members wish. A
short program consisting of addresses.
music. and steroptican views will be
given. After which a luncheon will
be served consisting of the best that
experienced men cooks can cook and
serve. This is an event in which
the men will do all cooking and other
work and the ladies. wives. and
women of the Ladies Circle. can sit
around and havea pleasant time with
