WELL KNOWN BUSINESS FIRM
DISPOSES OF BIG INTERESTS

A notable change in the business
life of Delta was made this week
notable because it concerns one of
the Oldest and best established bust
ness houses of the county, and because
it brings to our city a well known Pa
onia man and his family TO become
parts OF the business and social life
of the city and community.
Two gentlemen, Walter J Hollands
of Paonia, and P H. Hawkins, of Chi
cago, have purchased the stock, furni-
ture and equipment of the Hillman
Dry Goods store, and will take charge
aoout January 18th
Mr.. Hollands has for several years
been the manager and part owner of
the Paonia Mercantile company at
Paonia, recently disposing of his in
terest therein to the Rockwell family
Mr.. Hawkins is the western repre-
sentative of Carson, Pirie, Scott C
Company, well known Chicago cloth
ing firm He will continue his work,
while Mr.. Hollands will be the local
manager of the store.
Mr.. Hollands while young in years,
Is OiU III Iue merchandising business.
having been closely associated with
the work from early boyhood. There
is in the minds of those who know
him no doubt of his ability to conduct
the store along the same straightfor-
ward. businesslike lines as his prede-
cessor has done.
Mr.. Hillman has founded and built
up an enviable reputation, starting
twenty-seven years ago with small
stock, from which he has enlarged
until today his store stands among the
best established and best reputed on
the Western slope. While We are
pleased to know that he is to be fol-
lowed by such a worthy man, we can
not restrain a feeling of regret that
he is to retire from the business. He
retains the building and though as
vet no future plans are made, an
nounces that he and his family will
continue their residence here.

GOES FOR DOCTOR AND
BECOMES LOST IN CANON

Escalante canon is becoming notable
as a place to lose ones self, and it
is not necessary to accomplish this.
Thursday evening OF last week Gus
Bass started for Delta in hot haste
for a physician to attend Mrs. Bert
Shreeves who was taken suddenly i'll.
He lost his way and was compelled
to wait until morning. The trip is
usually made in about three hours
travelling horseback, but by being thus
delayed the messenger did not reach
Delta until during the early hours OF
the morning the next day, and Il was
nearly noon before the doctor arrived.

1t may be the last chance we. will
have to render war service tc the ma
tons gallant defenders.
The actual fighting is over, but
peace has not yet been declared. It's
like building a house. The struc-
ture is finished, but much remains to
be done in the way CT cleaning up.
A tremendous army, more than Il
million of our gallant boys, are still
"over there" They must be paid.
They must have food and clothes and
equipment and all that is needed to
clean up the job.
Much of the funds to be raised in
this drive will go for the Gaze of the
men disabled, aud they will be cared
for as men were never cared for un
der similar conditions. When they
threw up thei .rpeace-time positions
to go they knew not where and Of
fer their lives that the naticn might
live, we said. in effect: Go ahead,
boys; give coed account of your
selves; we'll see you through!" And
we've got to carry out our end of
the bargain. It does not seem pos
sible that there can be anywhere a
red-blooded American but will be
glad to come up with the cash and
