You get Factory -to-you prices On
all our ten dollar and fifteen dollar
suits and overcoats We will fur
nish any information with pleasure
that any customer would like to OBJ

proposition.
Our merchandise is even better
than last year, because we were
fortunate in purchasing yardage Of
the best possible materials along
with such concerns as the Snellen-
burg Clothing Manufacturing Co.,
of Philadelphia. At first we thought
we had plunged and bought too
much high class suiting, but we
would have been considerably more
fortunate had We bought more.
Some Of the materials we purchas-
ed could not now be duplicated at
any price, and those that could be
duplicated are now great deal
higher in price.
We advertise we save you five
dollars on a suit or overcoat; this is
an absolute fact, and this Fall we
save you more than five dollars, and
We will continue to do SO as long as
we have anything left Of our Fall
and winter merchandise. Please
note; we can sell every ten and mt
teen dollar suit and overcoat to
wholesalers at the same price that
we retail them. But to do SO would
greatly handicap US with our Fall

same stand ard Of value, even at a
sacrifice. Our values are better

THEY'RE SON THEIR WAY"

The Normal school football team
is on its way to the championship
of this circuit. The first leg of the
race was won last Friday at Stevens
Point. La Crosse defeated Superior
normal by big score-aud it looks
as though River Falls should de-
feat La Crosse.
At Stevens Point there was a
monster pile of debris heaped up
all ready for the celebration of
local victory. Also, the Pointers
planned to entertain their victims
at dance. The coach and team
had not quite settled plan, wheth-
er to smother River Fails under an
avalanch of scores, or to just make
8 or 4 touchdowns and then LAY
off"
Then came the game--in which
Stevens Point did not once have
possession of the ball inside River
Falls 80 yard line, and worse still,
River Falls twice had possession
of the ball BACK of Stevens
Points GOAL line.
And after the game the bonfire
and the social hop were both for
gotten.
The far heavier Stevens Point
line could ID nothing, either on de-
Tense or offense, against the better
trained forwards from River Fails.
The Point had two backfeld men
who took the brunt of the defensive
work and were the main factors in
staving off a much moro inglorious
defeat, but they could not advance
the ball.
The rouchdowns were made in
the first and third quarters, Rich
ards catching a forward pass back
of the goal line, and Eggebrecht
scoring after Christian, on a for
ward pass, had carried the ball to
the three yard line.
Tomorrow River Falls will go up
against one of the strongest of the
Twin City Colleges-the Minnesota
"Aggtes. The game will be played
on the normal campus and will start
at SIS o'clock. 1t should be the
best game staged on the local field
this season.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The electric lights are now being
installed in the gymnasium. There
will be sixteen 100 candle power lights
used. This will be a great addition
to the gymnasium in all social and
athletic affairs.
Only one more home game and
then the team will appear on foreign
grounds. The first two games have
been won by large scores and the
team has not yet been scored on. Al
though Galahad is 9 much harder
game we expect to win, SO come out

game.

floor space and the amount of air

on the numbers given by you as oc-
cupyiHg the various rooms in the

SALTWATER ALSO "EASY"
River Falls WINS, III to 0

Coach Guetzloe deserves a heap
of credit for the football machine be
has perfected over at the high
school. At first call for candidates
it looked as though he would have
nothing to work with,
especially for backfeld. He has
picked his men accurately for the
positions for which they are best
fitted and has drilled them to fill |
those positions 10 their best ability.
And be has developed talent that is
remarkable.
Last Saturday they repeated the
Hastings deluge of scores. this time
with Saltwater as their victim. In
the first quarter, as in their first
game, the visitors appeared to have
the edge on the locals. Saltwater
kicked off, held River Falls for
downs and then carried the ball
quickly up to the fifteen yard line.
But the locals held them there and
then were forced to punt. Nordby
intercepted a Saltwater forward
PASS and from then on River Falls
could not be stopped. They scored
one touchdown in the last minute
Of the first quarter. Rock, Ham
mond and Covers advanced the
ball to Stillwater's 30yd. line. Here
Smith fumbled, recovered the ball
back of the line of scrimmage and
then wri2gled through the entire
opposition and continued on over
the goal line. Rock kicked goal.
Lowe and Hunter spoiled Still
waters line and end plays, and
they we're able to work but one
forward pass, and that was rath'
er doubtful one as, from the side
lines it looked as though il was
caught on the bounce.
In the second quarter Smith and
Rock carried the ball to the 7-yd.
line and Covers went around right
end for a touchdown. Rock kicked
goal but it was not allowed, the
ball not having touched the ground
when he kicked it.
In the third quarter Covers inter
cepted Saltwater pass. A pass,
Rock to Smith netted Is yds. Still
water held the locals for three
downs, but on the fourth Smith
fumbled and again scooped the ball
from the ground and went through
the entire team for 20 yds. and
touch down, Rock kicked goal
Toward the end ofthis quarter brill
liant runs by Covers and Smith
brought the ball to the Is I'd. line.
On the first play in the final round
Covers went through tackle for the
remaining distance. Rock kicked
goal. The first play after the kick
off was a pass rom Rock TO Smith
which Melted As yds. Saltwater in
tercepted a pass, but Covers re-
covered a Saltwater tumble and
Hammond then made As yd, run
for a touchdown. Rock kicked goal.
Saltwater kicked off and on the
fourth play Covers made 35 yds. to
the yd. line and Rock carried the
ball over and then kicked goal. The
final score was River Falls Al,
Saltwater 0.
Next Saturday afternoon River
Falls will play the Galahad team
here. 1t appears to be the general
opinion that Galahad will win. If
they do it Will be by an aWfully
small margin, But we are inclined
to predict victory for River Falls.

COLUMBIA'S @wELCOME- SIGN.

A tourist from New England with
his family was crossing the Old
Trails Highway in his automobile. As
he entered East Broadway, Columbia,
one of the children pointed down the
street and called her fathers atten-
tion to the pretty banners that Co
lumbia had stretched across its prin-
cipal street
This town certainly is welcoming
tourists" said the father. That's an
excellent idea and worth remember
ing"
By this time the automobile had en-
tered the business section: so the
family was near enough to read the
beautiful signs of welcome. They
stopped the car and the little girl
spelled out the lettering on the first
sign:
Don't fail to see the Bilkins and
wilkins Wonderful Act at the Side
Show Tonight" read the first sign.
Another banner that stretched
across between two modern business
buildings told of an entertainment
that had been held week before. Still
another, composed of pennants strung
on a wire, told of other entertainments
to be.
This town evidently has gone
amusement mad since it has given
over its principal street for advertis-
ing purposes" said the driver of the
car, "and / guess | will change my
mind about this being a welcoming
idea TO be remembered"
