Sunday schools of the county were

One Cent Sale. Stunt Nov d

The ordway Drug company OF this
city is conducting lone cent sale
Thursday. Friday and Saturday oi
this week. This is their third semi
annual sale OF this kind and II goes
without saying that 1t is the most sue
cessful, as the people of this COM
munity are fast learning how depend
able Rexall goods are.
The plan is this: You pay the regu-
lar price for one Of the items on
sale and for another Of the same
kind you pay one cent. For instance
the regular price OF Rexall Tooth
Paste is twenty-five cents and for
twenty-six cents you get two tubes.
Many other things OF everyday use
are in the sale such as Opeko Coffee,
a high grade coffee sold only by the
Rexall drug stores. The regular
price is 4Oc per pound and on this
sale two pounds for 41c. Several
hundred pounds of this coffee were
disposed OF at their last sale In Febu-

A EISH STORY

The finest sport on earth" is the
way George Beaver speaks of trout
fishing. and judging from the evil
dence he produced he is about the
best fisherman on Garth" At any
rate Mr.. Beaver went up into the
mountains about two weeks ago to
catch trout and he caught them. 1t
may be that there were but the five
loaves and two small fishes" but
nevertheless IL there were but two
fishes" they went almost as far as the
two fishes with the desert multitude
several hundred years ago.
Beaver took with him a couple of
tender feet" so to speak. They were
two of Kentucky's bluegrass boys,
Floyd Koon and Cleland Smith.
Starting out, very unusual to Mr.
Beavers nature and habits and GUS
toms, he told his friends from Ken
ing never to see one on the trip, but
behold during their stay up came a
bear He had told them of the buff
falo which had inhabited the hills
and valleys giving them what he be-
lieved to be merely "hot air" tales
of beasts of the fields and fowls of
the air, but as they came rafting
down hill Che drove Ford) a big
buffalo stepped out of the road and
stood all powerful at the side as they
passed on Stories of mountain sheep
and elk and deer were spelled off
by the old westerner who had seen

surveyed the San Francisco bay for
town lots and who has seen Market
street in Denver entirely revolution
! lied, and these stories almost as II
/ by magic came true, for it chanced
I that about every kind of beast ant
every sort of fowl made itself visible

of this issue of the New Era in an
announcement which the company is

milk they will start taking it at once.
In speaking Of this Mr.. Thomson
stated that 1t was not the intention
of the company to injure the cream
cry in any way for there would be
those who preferred to sell to the
creamery rather than the whole milk.

Tons Of Cherries are
Being Picked Now

Cherry harvest in on this week full
blast, however. cherries have been
ripe in this county .or the past four
or five weeks. The early cherries
were not so plentiful but the crop of
wragg cherries is bumper one this
season. Last week the orchards in
and about Crowley were beginning to
present an active scene by the pick
ers and especially was this true in
the o. Fl. Griffith orchard, where over
10000 pounds of fruit were harvest
ed and delivered to the canning fac
tory. This was fifteen tons of cher
ries
In the A. G. Bowers orchard this
week there is an army Of pickers and
the yield as estimated the first of the
week will be between 10000 and
100000 pounds or between rs and
100 tons. These cherries are also
going to the factory, except what are
sold to consumers at the orchards
as none are sold to be shipped by
the growers.
/ w. B, Newton, manager of the can
ing factory, stated the first of ths
week that the plant would run al
this week and perhaps some of mex

pounds a day would be handled. HI

the measures he required as war

MARKED CONTRAST
I can not help contrasting for you
the difference between that element
in the democratic party that wishes
to see Colorado plunged into another
great Industrial war and that ele-
ment which stands with the republic
cans firmly. at all TIMES. for law and
order. Senator DeBusk OF Trinidad,
N the Senate speaking on the consta-
bulay bill said that Gunter went in
to ONCE under the most favorable
circumstances but would go out the
most discredited man who ever left
the chair with one exception. Sena-
tor DeBusk represented the element
that glory in disorder. Senator
Eincher. who has proven his ability
to lead thru leadership which was
forced on him this session. and with
out whose backing the Governor
never would have gotten across with
his measures, when DeBusk sat down
arose and said:
"Iswant to take this occasion to
thank the republicans of this body
for their Americanism and their 10y |
atty to state. Unlike some of the |
members of my own party they have
not been here playing petty politics
nor have they been carried off their
feet thru empty promises of future
political reward They have been
patriotic and loyal at all times, and
again. as a democrat, I want to pub
lically extend to them my thanks"
I want to say, for think you
should know it, that when a COM
Taunity can secure men of the ability
and loyalty Of Mr.. Bashor to repre-
sent it. that community should feel
proud of its selection. 1t is men Of
the Bashor stamp who have saved
Colorado in the past 1t is men of
the Bashor stamp who saved the
state during this special session and
Il will be men of the Bashor stamp
to whom all loyalty. patriotic and law
abiding citizens must turn in the fu
