NOT LIKE IT USED TO BE.

It's not like It used to be in the way
of business, especially in what was
called the secondhand store. when a
man went into business with capi-
tai of $40 or $50, did his own cook
ing slept in the back part Of the store,
had dog and cat as companions, and
a stock composed of some old clothes,
a few broken stoves, old wood beds
and woven wire springs. with small
bell over the door to tell him a pros
pective customer was approaching.
Now, this day and age. you call at an
up-to-date secondhand store, such as
Mason & Elliott's on South Third
street, and you will be greeted with
a smile by an obliging clerk, ready to
show you anything from parlor to
kitchen goods. both new and second
hand, from a $4,000 stock OF goods,
such as dressers, wardrobes, iron beds,
felt mattresses, stoves, ranges. gran
ite ware. etc, all of which you may
not have expected to see.
If you will make one call you will
be convinced that a secondhand store
is not such bad place when you want
a bargain in household goods.
We buy or sell and exchange new
for old, also sell on easy payments.

terest sufficient to have at the head
OF organization
Strong, active citizens.
The Commercial Club has accom-
plished much the past year, but it
could have more than doubled its use.
fulness If the citizens when called up
on to aid in various ways had done
their duty.
1t is not fair to put all the work
upon the shoulders of a few men, as
has been the rule the past year.
The duties should be more evenly
divided, and to DO this there should
be organization within organization.
The merchants.-
The real estate Dealers,
The professional men,,
The artisans,
Skilled labor
All should be represented in the
Commercial Club with active commit
tees.
An organization of this kind working
at the call of the executive commit
tee could accomplish ten-fold more
than that of an executive committee
placed where It is compelled to give
up important propositions many times
because Of not knowing who may be
relied upon to carry forward much
needed movement.

GET THE CIVIC IMPROVEMENT
FEVER.

It's a solemn fact that we need a
civic improvement society IN chicka-
sha, live. aggressive organization
that will devote all It's energies 10
beautifying the city.
There is large field for such a
society. Most important OF all the
work to be done Is the cultiyating Of
the improvement spirit A lecturer
has truly told us that the chief rea-
son why we don't spruce up and look
better Is becaure we lack the inclina-
tion. Ordinarily a man doesn't wear
solled collar as a measure OF econ
omy, but because he is lazy and care
less about his personl appearance. II
through organized effort we can get
the right sort OF public spirit worked
up. the people will do the rest
Il isn't mere sentiment, that calls
for a beautiful city. It's a business
proposition. Property values are en-
HANGED and people viii, more readily
locate in a city which presents a good
appearance.
Yes, we need an organization, but
we needn't wait for any society to prod /
us along. After all, the bulk Of this
work must be done individual effort
What's the use Of putting It off? Why
not begin right now to beautify your
property
Let's resolve right now
To set out more trees and shrub
berry.
To put the parking in front OF our
property in good shape.
To make our yards present a pret-
tier appearance.
To clean up on and around our prem
ises and keep clean.
To fix up that front fence and also
the back fence-don't forget the back
yard.
To use a little more paint.
To have more flowers.
Instead OF taking to our beds with
"spring fever" let's get bad spell of
the civic improvement fever and do
our part toward making Chlekasha the
most beautiful city In Oklahoma.
