HOW ABOUT THOSE,
CALENDARS

q Luck came our way last ueek when ue
secured the option on fine line of Calendars
for 1913.
q The subjects are fine but where the Luck
came in Was tbe prices giuen u.s. They are
such that ne can quote you prices that really
sound ridiculous. Of course, if you uant some
extra fine, say sepia tint on dcckle edged
card, it does cost naoney-but you mill not re-
gretthe expenditure made
q For real commercial purposes p1h a calendar
for usage and advertising seruice, this line of
calendars wil take your eye'
" We are enthusiastic you say Of course ue
are. But we can deliuer the goods.
q Don't think of going out of topn for uour
Calendars. Come bere. We are going after
trade in other tol0ns. find we II get it, too.
" Stop in an select your subject We wM

Tears In the Contract.

A southern lawyer has gained state
wide repute for his success in pleading
criminal cases. His claim to fame is
that he sheds real tears while urging
juries to save his innocent clients, and
the clause NO tears, no pay!" is a
part of every contract he makes.
He had case not long ago that
seemed easy on the start, but devel-
oped later into q most dificult one.
Not long after he had turned on the
tears the attorney had II OF the Jury
weeping also. One stony-hearted juror
sat and glared at him. Tears had no
effect on him. The attorney redoubled
his efforts and his tears. He devoted
himself entirely to this adamant juror.
Fears splashed from his eyes and
deWed his whiskers and his waistcoat.
He talked eloquently and cried still
more eloquently. Presently the set
features OF the determined juror re-
laxed bit.
Brushing away most Of the tears
the attorney turned his back to the
Juror and bent down to get glass Of
water. As he stopped he whispered
to his law partner. who sat near him:
John, I've never lost one vet! That
darned old sucker cant hold out two
minutes more"
And he didn't--saturday Evening

HOW THEY Do It
IN TRENTON MO.
The Trenton, Mo-, Idea Has Surprising
Results--The Story Of Their
Awakening.

Trenton Mo-. April 2s.-Two months
ago Trenton Was a city of six Thousand
people, and the county seat of GriInny
county. drawing trade from a prosper
Gus agricultural territory and further
enriched by a Rock Island monthly
payroll of 100000.
Today Trenton has forgotten the city
limits and lost interest in the census
To-day Trenton is not a city of si:;
thousand people, Trenton is city
with Commercial Club Of Ave hun
dred members"
The Trenton idea" is i Commercial
Club with as many members among
| the farmers as among the townfolks.
It is club which wants to forget town
lseIfishness, which wants to work for
the advancement of its entire trade
territory and which wants to join sim
liar organizations in systematic boost
campaign for North Missouri. Good
roads" is its paramount issue.
The Birth of The Idea.
Governor Hadley. the principal
speaker at Commercial Club dinner
attended by five hundred men last
night at the Trenton Convention Hall,
was impressed when he learned of the
Trenton idea and how 1t was work
ing out. The governor would have the
Trenton idea taken to every city
and town in Missouri
A few weeks ago NJ Y. Watson,
chairman of the ways and means com
mittee of the Kansas City Commercial
Club, went to Trenton in response to
a request for advice in recognizing an
inactive business club.
Mr. Watson was met at the depot by
T. n Witten, business man. now
president OF the new club.
How many citizens have you?" the
Kansas City man asked.
Six thousand Mr.. Witten said,
with some pride.
How much ground do you ooyer?'
About two miles"
Altogether too small' Mr. Watson
commented. Your city is too small to
accomplish things. Just two square
niles Extend your city limits. Where
ever you draw trade, cag that Trenton.
Trenton is not place where people
live. It's place where people do bus
mess. Think about it,.
/ "shook" The City Limits.
Trenton business men thought about
it. They shook hands-and then
~soolxs the city limits. They called
every man who came into the business
district Of Trenton Trenton man,
ignoring whether lie walked six blocks
or drove six miles to get there
Trenton has Commercial Club Of

of whom are farmers. Rock roads IN

TO CALL Off
STATE LAND DEAL
Governor Says He is Convinced State
is Not Getting What il Should
out Of the Deal.

g Oklahoma City. April 23.-Protest-
ing that the making of lease by the
school land commission to the Build
ers Sand and Gravel company of Okla
homa City of the river beds of the
Arkansas and Grand rivers, gave that
company monopoly on the sand and
gravel representatives of the CONNER
ciai Clubs of Muskogee and Tulsa, ap-
peared before the school land commits
sion today and argued for voiding of
the contract with the builders COM
pany The proposition is one that has
stirred the state as no other incident
since statehood. The granting of the
exclusive franchise made the builders
company, which is composed of Okla
homa City attorneys, sole owners for
practical purposes of al 1.-The sand and
gravel in the beds of these two rivers.
At the end of the hearing today it
was decided to have representatives of
the sand and gravel companies that
have been taking this material from
the river come to Oklahoma City next
Monday morning and tell the commits
sion what they think about a proper
royalty the state should charge.
Two members of the school land
commission, Governor Cruce and Sec
retary Of State Ben F. Garrison, who
voted against the conSrsct to the
builders company are in favor of re-
scinding the lease while the other
three were not satisfied to take such
action yesterday They intimated that
they had not been so we'll informed as
now and that with proper showing
they might change their mind and vote
to srescind the contract.
ThcsS Royalties.
Accompanying the lease given the
Builders Sand and Gravel company
was a supplemental contract with
three attorneys who compose the build
ers company to collect back royalty
from companies and any one who has
taKon sand and gravel from the river
bed receiving q fee OF 25 per cent Of
all they collect, amounting to several
hundred thousand dollars. Seven suits
have already been brought against in
dividuals and railroads for the recov-
cry of back royalties.
As the company holds an exclusive
lease on the future supply of sand and
gravel. it was argued that they could
compel the other companies to settle
or go out of business, thereby in a
short time leaving the builders COM
pany in exclusive control Of the situa-
ti0n, with no stipulation in their CON
tract to prevent them charging any
price they pleased for sand and gravel.
T. J. Martin. mayor Of Tulsa, J. NJ.
Hall and l. F Grow members of the
Commercial Club of that city and
Judge G. B. MeCrory and Irwin Dono-
van of Muskogee, presented arguments
against allowing the contract to stand.
Robt. Galbreath. recently elected dem
ocratic national committeeman, also
opposed strenuously the contract de-
claring that the administration would
be held responsible for it.
