UCwEETS TO THE SWEET" Iris
 ever thus at Christmas time and the sweet in ninety-nine cases out of hundred is dainty box of candy from the Busy Drug. Store. Lovely ex- amples of ivory, fragrant perfumes, kodaks and other holiday thoughts may be expressed from the stock of this drug company.
 GIFTS FOR the table will unques-
 tionably have place in the holiday giving but the touch of loveliness and the joy of newness in the decorative features will be quite lost if the damask has lost its sheen. It is well to keep in mind during the Christmas entertaining period and afterward-that the Arizona Laundry does exceptionally fine work. There you can send your finest lunch con and dinner sets certain that they will not only come back spotless, but will have the gleam of new linen just as you would have 1t fin harmony with immaculate service.

IF YOU HAVEN'T joined Redewill's Christmas Piano and Player NClub, you had better do so today. Just think of only having to pay $10 down and having the piano or player of your choice right in your home for Christ mas! And you can have three years in which to pay for the balance. Every member that joins this club gets a $5 credit right away and an additional credit of $3 for every plano or player that Redewills sell, after you join until Christmas eve. The sooner you join, the more you save. You are certain to save at least $75 because they guarantee you that much redue- tion and you get the benefit of as much more as their gross holiday sales az gregate after you join on the basis oi ! s for every piano or player. Better
 wire or write in for early membership if you cannot get in to their sales

Conqueror Of O'DOwd Clever
Wilson Is Good On Defence

NEW YORK. July 30.-Johnny Will
IN son. OF Harlem, the new middle

drab impression in his first bout since

first bout in the metropolitan district
eran soldier Bartfield at Newark
Got the Decision
After II rounds Of jabbing. clinch-
ing, side-stepping and swinging with
Bartfield, the new champion was
awarded a popular decision by the
critics at the ringside. few OF whom
refused to concede him better than a
draw.
Consensus Of opinion was that VIII
son had won the bout on points. but
in winning he failed 70 disclose any
thing resembling latent ability Of the
variety that might account for his
victory over O'Dowd-
To be frank. Wilson's showing
was n disappointment. Some may
say that Bartfield is the sort OF
boxer who. because OF his very
uYvkFardness Is liable to make
any coed boxer look bad, but as
a matter Of fact Wilson failed to
show the finish that a champion
should have All he exhibited
was a limited knowledge Of the
grand old Enme.
Another point which discounts his
standing as a champion Of the first
water is the fact that he apparently
lacks initiative and aggressivene
He often upset Bartfield's attack dur
ing their 12-round melee, but having
done that he seemed at a loss as to

August generally brings the close Of

IL Is usually difficult to hold the at

Of time he will have to burnish up

Spencer's average for II years is

broke 51.706. Twice in this period
has he led all the trapshoolers in the
country in the averages-in 1909 and
1915. No shooter has ever equaIled
$3.50 on more than 5000 targets. nor
ures, when he average $3.50 on nearly
5000 targets. In 1903 at Viola, H.
Spencer compiled a run OF SIS

targets in succession, the shoot last
ing two days Spencer broke the en-
tire program Of 200 targets each day
and then on the second day he con

565 he was forced to discontinue
shooting because he had no more
