he had to abandon him.
When they reached the river which,

Moorhead Firm Starts a Remarkable
overstock SaIe--ReaI Bargains

Their stock Is new and dependable,

people Of Clay county.
1t Is very rare that a reliable firm
like Mus Bros. ever attempts such
enormous reductions as will be wit

days ago was astounded to see the
manner in which they were sacrificing
the entire stock. He noticed they were
making great lots of mems suits that

being in Clay county win attend this
great sale, as the autumn season is
fast approaching now, when all feel

very good when the peculiar weather

cred. But from the reports have

Mr.. Wipperman Is one of the lead
ing business men In the southern part
of the Red river valley and came to the
city today on a little business.
Among the visitors In the city last
night was Sen. Wesley c. Mcdowell
of Marion, who has been prominently
mentioned for the democratic nomina-
tion for governor. Senator Mcdowell
does not seem to take his gubernatorial
boom very seriously, for when the sub
ject as mentioned to him last night in
the Gardner lobby he laughed heartily.

During the past summer the Enid

identifying the city. A contest was

gardens and the result was a mater
ial increase in the number OF we'll
kept lawns and beautiful flower beds
and gardens. The contest also awak-
ened civic pride and the vacant lots
were well kept and the alley ways
and back yards well looked after.
One drawback in regard to civic Inn
provement was the desire OF the Ia
dies to do big things Immediately and
they lacked the necessary funds 20
carry out their ideals. However this
was compromised upon and 1t was de-
cided to raise money to give prizes
for the most beautiful lawn and the
best improved vacant lot Immediate
w the contest was under full headway
There were 157 entries in the lawn
contest and twenty three for the va
cant lot contests. Individual efeort
was to be rated higher than anything
else. which brought the prizes nearer
the persons who did the actual work
than 1t did to those who might have
prettier lawns but maintained by hir-
ed labor.
