your answer is no. Some people
wonder why it is that the mail
order houses do such a flourish.
ing business. We attribute it to
one thing only-they are the
largest advertisers in the world
today and are not afraid to spend
their money to let the PEOPLE
know what they have and make
the people feel that they want
their trade. We know absolutely
that you can get better quality Of
goods and more courtesies extend.
ed right here in Julesburg than
you can by sending away the spot

and take your chances on getting
whatever they send. The Mail
Order man does not help you in
time of sickness; he does not as.
sociate with you in every day life
and has no interest in you what
ever except b get all the "doe"
there is coming his way.
The writer can truthfully say
that he never sent dollar to ore
of these concerns and never expect
to. If a resident of Julesburg or
Sedgwick county waits to see the
town and county push forward,
get the mail order business out
of your system. Ifyou don't think
that the home merchant is giving
you a square deal, tell him 50. He
will appreciate it and will remedy
the trouble. 1t means great ben

you reside. The farmer and mer-

things good for common welfare,
as they are both vitality interested

believe you willagree with us after
giving the proposition due con-
sideration. Cooperation is what
we need-and the Grit Advocate

splendid movement pushed for

an easy game for us but after the
first inning it was a fight all the
way through, as from all indica.
tions q large score would result,
but not so.
Amhurst's twirler was ut his
best and our boys couldn't find
him but for five hits, one triple,
two doubles and two singles, and
four had to lay down the wood
and take seat. ION the ground }
1t tlooked as though there would
be no game when the clouds be.
gan rolling up at two O'Clock and
by two thirty was blowing and
raining at q nice rate. By three
O'Clock it had cleared, but the
elements did the work for small
crowd was in attendance at the
start and before the finch a fair
number were both inside and
outside the fence watching the
contest.
Considering the late start the
game was played in good time
rs there wasn't much batting
around, with the exception of
the fiftl' inniug when Julesburg
made her only scores by several
errors and three hits we we're
able to score three times, and
that was all as it was only two or
three times with the one excep-
ton that we saw third. Am
hurst was in worse predicament
as it was only in the ninth whom
they were able to see and pass
third.
The game was played in a very
gentlemanly manner and carried
with it q regular vaudeville side
line throughout the game. Some
imagined that it was really so.
when they could hear Carson,
johnson and few others. We
all felt sorry for Cason as it
seemed as ii the tosser from Am.
hurs, had it in for him or that

Of four times to bat and he Sc
cured tree walks to the first sack
its maybe good thing that they
weren't coming real fast.
The Amhurst lads told us that
the double header the Fourth in
which they won both games
were the latest ones they had
played with no practice as they
had been very busy, but if they
can play the way they did to-day
without any practice they really
don't need it, as to all appear
ances it don't even take practice
or base hall uniforms either.
