The popular Caterer who is promot-
ing a splendid Truck Garden Farm,
which he owns in Oklahoma.
Mr.. w G. Moon, the we'll known
and successful caterer. at 1928 Balti-
more avenue has returned from a six
weeks visit from his farm near
Claremore, Okla, and is looking ex-
ceedingly well after his well earned
vacation. Mr.. Moon is planning to
convert a portion of his farm into a
truck garden where on account of it's
rich soil and tremendous yield he
hopes to be able to supply all the
delicacies of the season direct from
the farm to the consumer without the
profits of the produce dealer or mid
die man beind added to5the price ot
the consumer. While in the South
Mr.. Moon took course of baths at
Claremore and Hot Springs and jok'
ingly said to his friends on his return
that he felt like "two year old
And he said he would not hesitate to
tackle Jack Johnson if there was
enough money in it.
Mr.. Moon is the owner of much valu-
able property in the south, all pur'
chased by earnest and assiduous ap'
plication to his business and has a
reputation of being one of the finest
caterers the west has produced. His
elegant establishment at 1928 Balti
more avenue which is oftimes crowd
ed to the doors is a testimonial of the
excellent cuisine and splendid serv
ice for which his place is noted. The
Sun congratulates Mr.. Moon upon his
exceptional success in business anc
his devotion to all those principles
that are for racial upbuild.

to belittle the work of Colored truant

serves the contempt of every decent

SERIES
The National and American leagues
are not the only organizations fur
nishing tight pennant races this year,
as glance at the standing of the
Federal league clubs will show. In
fact the Feds. have had little some
thing on the two older leagues, in
asmuch as the Gilmore circuit has
had five teams travelling along with
mark of 500 or better. Joe Tinker s
Chifeds, the team picked earlier in
the season as a sure winner, now
has to fight to a finish with Indian
apolis and Baltimore. Brooklyn and
Buffalo are not very far back, while
the weaker members City,
ST. Louis and Pittsburgh-are still
able to trip the leaders occasionally.
The Federal league race is still very
unsettled and before the season ends
several teams will be considerably
mussed up in their efforts to win
the bunting.

UNTIL IT GOT FUNNY

There has seldom been a madden
man than he whose for sale one house"
advertisement appeard in The Repub-
lican yesterday morning, and happened
to get accidentally right under another
mans name.
Strangely enough, local real estate
dealer had tried to get the man to list
his house, and had failed. Then, the
said man came to The Republican
recognizing fine method of selling
his property, through the medium of
Phoenix's Greatest Public Market
place. BY the most ridiculous coinci-
dence, the regular ad appeared right
below that of the would be vendor.
And to make it worse. the type got
balled up and the dealers name came
right up over the for sale notice.
Bing! In came the house holder, mad
as they make 'em, and he remained
mad until the situation was explained
to him. Later he phoned in and asked
for the expert little explainer. and re-
marked that he had seen the humor
of 1t. and was laughing himself He
will probably make very gratifying

the squirt that Boston took, climbing
to second place naturally gives these
chaps a sort of run on the excited
sport comment. Their rise was more
unexpected and therefore more SEN
sational than that of New York, st.
Louis or Chicago. Yet these Cards
and these Cubs deserve some men
ton. From yesterday, it became
strictly a four team race. We do not
know exactly what made Boston soar
except that Stallings' men started in
suddenly to play the most approved
sort of baseball. But we do know
that Miller Higgins has also been
guiding one score of very efficient
fighting men along the paths to lea
que leadership this season.
Not a great deal is expected of the
Cubs. They have played mighty good
ball. and also mighty poor ball. They
are the 1914 inland -outers. They
still have time. however, to pull off
IA row of consecutive victories like
their early squirt this season. But
there is a lot of chance against it for
, the O'Day clan.
In the American league pennant
battle it is merely question of
whether the Red Sox, the Tigers or
, the Senators can overtake the Ath-
letics. The three teams are all play
