shine" Coaches Schwam and Ire
panier of the Belmont squad are pre-
dieting a victory and SO is Coach

the university team, and E. Ellison,
the fast end man of the university

sell at least 1000 tickets for the game
and to turn the money over to the
Red Cross society. Undoubtedly this
number of tickets will be sold but the
girls will take no chances on running
short, so will make a thorough job of
the sale tomorrow morning.
The lineup for the teams follows:

There were reports also that the adj

a moderate tgeneral upturn.
For the third, day in succession,
oats went to anew high price level
for the season. Scantiness of arrivals
continued to be the main factor. y
Provisions averaged higher; big
shipments of packing house products
and the irmness Of the hog market
were mainly responsible.
Activity and strength in oats had
a decided bullish effect on corn. Gov

months visit at Ionia, Mich. They

A Trifle Queer.

A woman is a mighty handy thing
to have about the house, but at all
times a trifle queer, says an ex-
change. She doesn't cost any more
to keep than you will give her AMI
never loses interest in you. If you
go out at night she will be awake
when you come in and tell you all
about yourself and more too. OF
course she will know where you have
been and what you have been doing,
and after she gets through telliny
you she'll turn around and ask you
where you were and what kept you
out so late. And after you inform
her she won't believe it, but you
must not mind. When you get into
bed she assures you that she has not
slept wink all night, yet she will
stay awake two hours telling YOU
things you don't want to hear. You
wonder why she doesn't go to sleep
when she has chance, but don't
worry. It's simply her nature.

We believe that there are only two
other business men in DEBORAH now,
who are still at the head of their re-
spective business houses, who have
been here longer than Mr. Hexom,
and they are Ben Bear and X. /.
Haugen, who are some ten years old
er in the business world than Mr.
Hexom. At that thirty years is a
long time for one man to be conduct
ing the same business year in and
year out. Mr.. Hexom has been a
credit to the business circles of De-
corah, always conducting his bust
ness on high plane and his honesty
and squareness has never been
questioned, which is worth some
thing to a man who has been in the
harness for thirty years, dealing with
the general public, through hard
times and good times.
We wish to congratulate this pop
ular merchant on his thirty years OF
business activity among us and w,
bespeak many more years of business
for the firm Of John C. Hexom &
Son.

little fingers. Bert lost the fieshy
part of his proboscis by surgical
operation few years ago. Only re-
Gently did he consult medical author
tiles in regard to making him new
nose. This very thing is now pro-
posed, and Bert went to Council
Bluffs few days ago TO enter hos
pital where the work will be done.
The method of producing the nose
is to graft the end of one of his H.
tie fingers on the bone in the center
OF his face. The flesh of the finger
is split and placed in the proper po-
sition on his face. The finger is not
|amputated at this time, but the hand
and arm is held up in place by plas-
ter of paris cast until the flesh of the
finger unites with the bridge of the
nose. If the process proves success
full that far, than the finger is cut
loose from the hand and trimmed up
In the shape of a nose. 1t takes
about twenty-one days for flesh 10

to remain in the hospital with his

knowing that prices would 90
much higher we took advantage of
the markets last summer and bought
very large stock and wish to say
that We are in position to save you
