Harry Lees Won Boat Race

For the fourth time in succession
the Harry Lees won the annual
boat race from the Albert Sidneys
Monday afternoon. The contest
was a pretty one, and the reds
came in about half a boat length
ahead of the blues. The time was
4 minutes and 81 seconde. The
distance is a mile course.
The day was cool and braclng,
the river flushed from recent rains,
and the racing was rendered easier
thereby. In the forenoon and
earlier in the afternoon showers
indicated that the race might be
postponed, but towards the time
for the contest the clouds shifted
and the weather cleared. A large
crowd, as usual, witnessed the
race, and red and blue colors were
much In evidence ss decorations
by the adherents of the two crews
The crews were-Harry Lee: C.
S. Osbourn, stroke; A. H. Leaf,
No. 3; R. Z. Powell, No. 2, C. s,
Glasgow, No. l; H. E. Hannis,
coxswain; Albert Sidney: E. A
G. Hoge, stroke; R. D. Morales
No. 3; D.A. DeVane, No. 2; r. Z
Bledsoe, No. l; R. W. Dickey, cox
swain.
Since the boat race was first be-
gun the Harry Lees have won 1e
races, the Albert Sidneys 10, two
have been draws and two years
there were no races.

Retail Merchants Association
Organized in Lexington

Retail Merchants ASsOC1dCiou
Organized in Lexington
Last Friday night the retail
merchants of Lexington got To-
gether and formed the Business
Mems Association of Lexington
and elected president, vice
president, secretary-treasurer, an
executive board consisting of sew
en- members, and an advisory COM
mittee of three members.
The object of the local associa-
ton is for protection, and placing
the com mercial interest on a sound
er financial basis. which will be of
great benefit to every citizen in
the town aud county, and all tribu-
tary points.
The officers are having complied
the "Jrediu Experience Guide,
published by the Merchants Mer-
camille Agency of Pittsburg and
Chicago. This guide will contain
the names, occupations and postof-
fee address of persons that obtain
credit in Rockbridge county and
will show how many merchants they
deal with, and how they settle their
obligations. They will be rated ac-
cording to key as to the manner
in which they pay, either prompt,
fair, slow, or whether they pay at
all.
Persons who pay one merchant
in order to use him as a reference
to get credit from others and then
neglect to pay them are the class
that largely make the losses of the
business world. The aim of this
system is to chow such persons in
their true light, making it necessa-
~ for them to pay cash, thus reduc-
ing the losses in extending credit
to minimum.
What the trading public should
insist upon is that their merchants
I give them a rating 30 when they
ask for credit all that is necessary
| is to refer to the guide only those
who are very slow pay will object
to this system.
There are some people who are
not intentionally Glow in settling
their accounts but they are neg
lectful. Now when they understand
that they must be rated they will
endeaver to secure the best rating
possible, and will be more prompt
Instead of allowing their bills to
accumulate.
There will be other matters OF
Importance taken up from time to
time that Will be of mutual benefit
to every citizen and will be of pub
lie interest.
