Open Fine New
Billiard ParlOr

Hum Pracht and Joe Alnutt have
opened one of the finest billiard es-
Establishments in this part of the state
in the Elks temple. The equipment
and furnishings are all new and most
artistic. The front portion OF the
room, which is that formerly occu-
pied by McGee's dry goods establish
ment, is occupied by tobacco and
candy show cases. All of the wood
work is finished in oak stain and the
furniture is mission style. An arch
way gives entrance to the billiard
room proper, where three pool and
one billiard table are located. Seven
feet of space on all sides of the ta-
bles gives plenty Of cue room and
eliminates an objectional feature
found in many halls where the tables
are close together. The tables are
all of the latest make, with return
channels which drop the balls pocket
ed into basket at one end of the
table. The billiard table is beauty
Cues and balls are the best obtain
able. The room is well lighted.
Plenty of comfortable mission style
chairs are conveniently placed for
spectators.
The Alnutt tobacco factory, which
turns out the Tisit, La Valencia
Lithia and other well-kown cigars, is
located on a balcony at the rear OF
the building.

Post-mortems on election results
occupied the attention of all the
street corner dopesters yesterday.
Some of the most frequently reiter-
ated conjectures and remarks fol-
low:
Winner won because his popular
ity extended over the entire city or
else because his campaign extended
over the entire city. While each can
didate was very strong in his own
ward, Winners vote was heavy in all
three"
"The cleanest recorder campaign
in years. Five fine men were de-
feated."
"Dr. Jarvis is like the boy who
earned the money to buy a sled and
then had the sled broken before he
had chance to go coasting."
George Eubanks won in a walk"
"Only one new councilman"
"If the successful candidates make
good we will elect them again in
1918"

Business Men Make
Good Use Of Books

The business men of the city are
making free use Of the business
mans library Of forty-five books
which the state library has sent the
local library for limited length of
time. From one-half to two-thirds
of the books are out all of the time,
and names are on the waiting list for
some of the best. Every phase of
almost every business is dealt with
and any business man can gain much
profit in spare minutes from making
use of the books. Advertising, show
card, window decorating and arrang-
ing displays seem to be the most pop
ular subjects, as in the study of these
the ideas of others may be made use
of to the best effect.
