CHRISTMASSTOCK
NEARLY SOLD OUT
Merchants Jubilant Over the
Amount of Sales Made to
Early Yuletide Buyers.
SOME REMAINS FOR TARDY
Late Purchasers Still Have Choice
Holiday Goods to Pick From as
Last Opportunity Arrives.

The Christmas stock in Rock Is
lands stores is dwindling, and it is
believed that by tomorrow night. when
the shops close. practically all of the
holiday goods will have been dispos-
ed of.
This does not mean that there. is no
choice for the prospective purchaser TO
pick from, but the amount of stock
has been decreased by early Christ
mas buyers. This year, probably more
than ever before. the public has bought
and mailed Christmas presents early.
and therefore the final onslaughts on
the counter will not be as great as
formerly.
Contrary to current belief there
were az many sales this year as pre-
viously. but in some cases the amount
was not as great This shows that
the people this year are remembering
practically the same number as be-

Fully 500 people. most of them lit
tie tots of Rock Island, gathered at
Market square last evening to witness
the lighting of the community Christ
mas tree. This is the first time the
city has attempted a celebration of
this nature and the affair was a COM
plete success.
A short program, appropriate to the
occasion, was given starting at 700
o'clock. The beautiful 3O-foot tree, do
mated by the Elks. which was placed
on a raised platform on the site of the
old Commercial hotel, was brilliantly
illuminated and decorated. II was
trimmed with small mirrors strung by
long red ribbons and the effect was
very pretty when the electric candles
were turned on by w. B. Mcintyre. On
top OF the tree is a large electric star.
Given Greeting.
Mr.. Mcintyre extended a greeting to
the crowd in a brief talk. He COM
mented upon the interest that had
been shown in the event and of the
pleasure it gave him to have a part in
this, the citys initial Christmas cele-
bration.

The children of eBthany home and the
pupils OF the public schools, under the
efficient direction of Prof. L. L. Phil

fully entertained with three numbers.

Children Delighted.
The spectacle of last evening was
me long TO be remembered. II was a

pleasure and approval have greeted |

heavily on Christmas presents.
Business Better.
Business has been better than antic-
ipated and the showing made by local
merchants manifests that the CONNER
cial conditions are returning to nor
NAL.
A heavy business is expected tomor-
row by the merchants since there are
always some who are tardy in their
purchases. The bulk of the shopping
was done early, however, and that is
why the merchants are jubilant over
the fact that the Christmas stocks will
be practically sold out by Christmas
eve.
