MERELY HAD A MESSAGE.
Being Called by Mistake the Police
Made Hurry Run to Depot.

A vigorous ringing of the police
signal at the corner of Main and Lee
streets Sunday afternoon put the
joke on Officers Brown and Crouch.
Answering the phone, they were
told to hurry to the depot, and think
ing some rough houser' was doing
stunts there secured an automobile
and forgot about the speed limit
Upon arrival at the depot they
found everything quiet and peacea-
BILE. They were not wanted at all.
The gentleman who sent in the call
misunderstood a mere request that
message about some unimportant
matter be phoned to Chief Brown.
The ringing of the police signal
was long, vigorous and continued.
and thinking that there might be Sc
rious trouble of some kind a large
crowd followed the officers to the de-
pot.

people, for where any goods are
even the man who pays cash
has to pay the credit price in order
to help pay for the many leaks.
We Are Pleased
But not surprised at the way our
people are taking advantage of the
Cash System. We can convince any
one with one transaction.
The Credit System
Is a snap for the Dead Beat. Ali
he wants is to get the goods out of
the store, but it gives the other fell
low fits when payday comes.
Don't You Know
The reason merchants beg you
to have goods charged is because
they can get larger profits that way
than for cash? Certainly they can,
and they ought to, so as to pay the
bookkeeper and to even up those bad
accounts, ETC., etc. Just ordinary
common-sense teaches us that all
this is true. We most all have enough
sense, but just don't use it right;
that's all. Come and let us reason

HORNADY TO VOTERS
AFTER EIGHTEEN YEARS HE
HAS A MESSAGE FOR THEM.
Makes Suggestions That All Should
Think About. Would Benefit
Every One If Acted UpOu.

To the Voters of Terrell County:
Eighteen years ago this month
came to Dawson for the purpose of
selling shoes, and to sell The Best
by Test.
With this record of eighteen years
of satisfied customers we feel sure
every man, woman and child in this
whole section has been thoroughly
convinced that we sell the very best
goods we can buy and our prices
have always been as low as the same
quality of goods could be sold any
where with the old methods of bus
mess. In fact, our prices on the
highest grade shoes have been so
cents per pair less than the other
markets. But since the LIST day of
September, 1918, we have cut prices
so much lower that many of our
customers can hardly understand
how it has been done. The eXplana-
ton has been found in the word
CASH.
No bookkeeping.
No sending on approval.
No checking in.
No mistakes.
No bad accounts.
No disputing accounts.
The whole stock to show each
customer. Therefore, no loss of
sales. Every transaction takes care
Of itself and every customer salts
fed.
The Thoughtful Mind
Can readily see that the Cash Sys-
tenn is far the best for good paying

Two negro highwaymen, regarded
as the boldest footpads that have APP

reean, are being sought by the police
Monday. They held up w. P. Watts
of No. As Highland avenue, at o'clock
Monday morning, within a block of
his home, and, after relieving him Of
S65 threatened to shoot him because
he did not have at least 500, which
they declared was usually the limit of
their operations.
We will take your little $685." the
police say they told Watts, because
we need the money; but usually we
do not take anything less than $100!"
Hours Search FruitIess.
Watts notified the police depart
ment Immediately after the robbery
and a squad of officers was dispatched
to the scene. More than an hour was
spent searching for the footpads, but
without success. The police declared
that the description given by Watts
Of the highwaymen tallies with that
of two negro stickup men who have

The robbery of Watts was probably
the first holdup that has ever been
reported to the police as having oc-

Leap From Shadow.
Day was just beginning to break
when Watts left his store, and people
already were astir on the streets and
in their homes. At Highland and
Fort two negroes leaped out from
tue shadows where they had been
crouching and one of them covered
Watts with a revolver, while the other
seized his arms. Watts started to

showed the weapon into his face.

While one of the negroes held the
revolver against Watts nose, the 9TH
or black went carefully through
Watts clothing, turning his pockets
inside out and scattering their con-
tents on the ground. They gave him
back everything but the purse con-
tanning the $65.
Then the negroes told Watts to run
and not look back. Watts ran until
he reached the gate of his own home,
and when he looked back the negroes
were gone.
