Why Don't We Have Another Bookstore

Since our school interest both in town and country is increasing il seems to majority of the people that we ought to have another bookstore. Let us tell you the facts about the book proposition,
 What we are going to say we are ready to prove to any Doubt ing Thomas who will be shown.
 To begin with, dealers are given a 20 per cent discount from list price, and because of having to buy from so many publishers it costs from to To per cent to put books ill the house, the money iu- vested is worth at least calculation per cent and our ledger shows that for the last few years our eX- pense account is To per cent Of gross sales in other words after our goods, including books, are in the house 1t cost Us JOG for each dol lars worth sold to make sale. This will show you that there is absolutely not cent in the books bought from publishers.
 Now if you doubt anything we have said we will be only too glad to have you come and see for your self that every word of this state ment is true.
 We make the above statement because of the fact that some peo- pie over the county have an idea that we have control of the book business in this county and that we are making enormous profits on books. When we began to sell books at list price there were about three other places in town selling books and getting from 25 to 50 per cent over list price and when we put them at list price these other dealers all got out of the business just as quickly as possi- ble. This proves that while we have been censured and misrepre- sented, we should really have the thanks of the entire county for do ing for you just what others were not willing to do.
 This will also explain why school books cannot be charged to any one. While the above facts prove to you that we are getting nothing out of the new school books, nevertheless since we are in the business we want and ap- preciate your trade,
 Respectfully,

Hendrix's Last Hope of Finish
 ing First is Gone.
Game Yesterday Marred by Assault of Catcher Erwin of Normal on An
 derson of Hendrix.

The State Normal yesterday afternoon killed Hendrix's last hope of finishing first by defeating Hendrix in the first game of the local intercollegiate series, to 4 Although the Normal was out playing their opponents, it was a pretty game until the eighth when he exhibition was marred by an a ;sault of Catcher Erwin of the Normal upon Second Baseman An derson of Hendrix.
 With the score 5 to O against tn em, Hendrix made a desperate rally III the eight. Garvey was safe on Stevenson's error and went to second on a passed ball. Henderson bunted and was safe, Garvey taking third. At this point with Donaldson up, the squeeze play was negotiated, Donaldsonlaid down bunt ill front of the pitch CT and as Garvey safely slid into the plate, his spikes cut Erwin on the leg. When Anderson came up to bat, he laughed at Erwin, who, suffering with the injury, lost his head and struck Ander- son The players were promptly separated and Coach Wilson took Erwin out of the game. The in- experience of Clark who finished behind the bat for the Normal, materially assisted Hendrix in ad- ding three more scores ill the in ming, but they were unable to tie, and Haydons long hit over the fence for a home run, added another score for the pedagogues in the last half of the eighth.
 Alter the game Erwin made an apology to Anderson which was accepted, and, although the rivalry between the teams is intense, no further difficulty is feared.
