NEXT SATURDAY
Merchants of DecOrah Will Put on
Big Money Savings Sales, And
Guarantee Big Genuine
Bargains.
FARMERS GIVEN BENEFIT
OF FREE AUCTION

1t Will be Sold, Free of Charge
For You, by Competent
AuctiOneer.

The business men of Decorah are
going to put on "Decorah Bargain
Day. here next Saturday, May II.
This is not dollar day." but sale
where you can spend just few
cents, or as many dollars as you like.
A double page advertisement in this
issue of Public Opinion tells the
story of the forty-six merchants who
are making big reductions on their
goods. Look up the ads and read ev-
cry one of them. Something of inter-
est in all.
Another feature in connection with
this bargain day, is that the mer-
chants have been sending up huge
paper balloons for several days past,
and attached to each one is card,
which is good for $1.00 in, trade at
any of the stores, Or can be deposited
in a savings account at any Of the
banks, listed in the merchants adj
vertisement for bargain day Many
balloons have already been captur-
ed, some ten and twelve miles from
Decorah. One sharpshooter just at
the edge of town took his rifle and
shot the card from the balloon. Show
ed how anxious he was for that card.
Another big feature is. the Com
munity Auction, or market day, for
the benefit of the farmers This is a
dandy feature. The proposition is
simply this, if any farmer has any
articles on his farm, that he wishes
to dispose of, just bring them to De-
corah next Saturday, May II, and an
Experienced auctioneer will sell them,
and no charge whatever will be
made. This certainly is fine
proposition and one that should be
taken advantage Of by allssJust look
over the different articles about the
farm, and bring something to sell at
the auction next Saturday. No doubt
you will find just the thing you
want, and your neighbor a,will find
something he wants Don't hesitate,
now is the time to act, and help
start this big day, Saturday, May u,
in manner long to be remembered
by all.
Now don't miss this bargain day
and lose out on some of the excellent
bargains offered. The merchants of
Decorah all have excellent, high
grade stocks. and they will sacrifice
prices for the benefit of the COM
munity. If everybody puts their
shoulder to the wheel and boosts, this
big day will be one worth coming
miles to attend.
The Decorah Advertising Club has
taken as their motto, Truth in Ad-
vertising," and nothing but bona
fide bargains and prices will be offer
ed. Come to Decorah next Saturday,
aid judge for yourself. If you fail
to be one of the buyers that day, you
will just simply be iosing that much
money as the prices quoted in the
ads will testify.

habits. for he has never chewed,
smoked or used liquor or dissipated
in any form.
The Great Dane has participated

Great Britain, on October IL, stopped
all commercial cable communication

The Netherlands government replied
by saying that II would satisfy the
British desire to stop the transit of
sand and gravel to Belgium only when
the British government showed, not
withdrawing the declaration OF the
German authorities and the investign-
lions Of Dutch officers. that the ma
terfals were being used for war pur-
poses.
