are being given the Womans Guild

doubtedly be in attendance at both
concerts. In speaking of the program
Mr.. Ellery has Judged it most apprO-
pirate, in preparing the programs for
both concerts. The evening concert

harmony with the fact that the band
is appearing in Ardmore under church
auspices.

disappointment will be given those not

certs. Mr.. Ellery will give a short
talk at both afternoon and night con
certs at which time he will explain

the honor of having sent out the seasons
largest sheep shipment from the Arkansas
Valley. as well as having received the
highest price on the st. Louis market. as
reported in the Enterprise last week
Every week since the shipping season
began some carlot shipments have been
made from Weitzer, but on Monday the
record was broken when solid train
load of twenty-nine cars of sheep were
sent out.
The shippers were C. E. DeLong. Igo &
Cozzens and J. A. Rankin g. Co.. and all
the stock was in the finest condition and
is sure of the top price in the market.
The prospects are good that the Santa
Fe will hustle in some shipping sheds at
Weitzer, as another big shipment of sheep
besides lot of cattle. will be made in
about ten days, and with the great in
crease in the amount of shipping this year
the shippers think that they are entitled
to better facilities and have again called
the attention Of the railroad company to
the market.

did on the local diamond Wednesday

kept the professionals guessing until the
eighth innings whether they were going
to win out. and the score for the game
was only to ga much better showing
than some of the crack college teams
have made against the Indians.
Our two runs were registered by "Phip"
