WHY II PAYS ID BUY
 ONLY THE GENUINE
This Appears Especially to Navajo Blankets at Balke's Big Curio Store.

The subject of Indian blankets is always an interesting one and be- comes more so every day since the demand for them is greater as ar ticles of use or ornament. But for either purpose the value of them de- ponds upon their excellence and genu ineness An imitation Indian blanket is worth very little. It has little in trinsic value and no sentimental val ue.
 It was on this understanding that the great Navajo blanket business of Balkes Big Curio Store was built up and has been maintained. Only genuine Navajo blankets, for some Navajo blankets are not as good as others The long experience of MT. Bake and his personal selection of all the blankets he handles, assures to his patrons that they are getting the best blankets the most expert weavers of the Navajo's make.
 The Bake blankets are what are called summer" blankets, that is, they are woven in the summer time of the best wool that the Indian flocks yield. The Indians make them of this, the longest texture, because they can make them more rapidly and because they get better price for them. Later in the season, at their leisure they make the poorer wool into blankets.
 It should be remembered that there

MUCH COMMENT
on F|NN'S Def
kolemainen Would Run an Hour
Against American Quartette

New York, Jan. 22.-The extraordil4
airy challenge of Hannes Kolchmanen
to run an hour race against Kramer
Leslie, Strobino and Smith, who would
if arrangements went through, run fif-
teen minutes each against the plenom-
email Finn, is the topic of mucil CONVEX
sation in athletic circles.
The opinion is that some of the Am
erican runners mentioned will refuse to
compete i'm such a contest, and others
think it is just a plain bluff on the part
of those who are advising the Finn in
the matter of the proposed match.
When the talk SINNERS down to cold
facts it is obvious that Kolehmainen
would have to run at least twelve
miles or more than 600 yards better
than Shrubs old record to win
tanCers.
There is no doubt about this, as
Kramer Leslie Strobipo and Smith
can average as good or better than
fifteen minutes for three miles which
is shown by their records. Kramer is
generally good for 1i:35; Leslie. Is
fat: Strobino l5;2O and Smith, IA: 80.
That these runners are capable Of av-
craging the marks mentioned no eX-
pert can deny, and from the figures ii
appears the Americans could cover
twelve miles in about 59:45, which
would figure more than $50 yards bet
ter than Boyiu's world, record of II
miles l,ti3 yards for sixty minute
event, made last July a. Stockholm on
the fastest track i'm the world.
Critics generally agree that the Finn
would have his work cut out To beat
even Kramer and Leslie in a race OF
the proposed kind Suppose, for eX-
ample and easy figuring, a ten-mle
event were arranged Leslie is good
for $50 and Kramer would he good
i'm his present shape FOR 20 fiat. in
door which would make the Kramer
Leslie combination say. $3.50, faster
by 16 seconds than the worlds indoor
record of 5l:06, made by Kolchmaincn
in Buffalo on the fastest indoor track
in the world last February while run
ming against four of thu star runners
up that day each of whom ran two and
onc-h half miles.

CRAIG WON'T COMPETE.
Says He Will Not Try for Track Hon
ors This Year,

Ann Arbor, Mich, Jan. 22.-With
the opening of the training season for
indoor track work Jimmie" Craig, ot
Detroit, Michigan Alr-Amcrican and
All-Wcstern half back, is still holding
to the contention that he will not go
out for the hurdles this year.
The reason for this hostile attitude
is difficult to determine. Craig is not
planning To graduate in the spring and
it's not likely that his college WORK
will prevent him from doing his share
to uphold Michigan's standing against
Syracuse and Cornell His knee that
he injured more than a year ago is not
in the best of condition, but he has
failed TO heed the advice of Trainer
steve" Farrell and others who sug-
gestcd in the TALL that he should sub
nit tn a thorough examination before
the track season began.
So far the students arc not consider
ing his statements very seriously, for
they remember tina. he suddenly
changed his mind about football last
fall Only the next day after saying
positively that he had given up all
thoughts of football, he called at the
athletic flee to get his moleskins.
