CRISP WEATHER
AIDS SHOPPING
Big Impetus to Christmas Buying Has
Been Furnished by Snow Storm
Which Camo Last
Night.
FINE STOCKS ARE HERE
Merchants Never Have Had Better
Displays Than This Season and
They are Ready to Serve
People.

The first real snow storm Of the
season arrived at Just the right
moment to give the real Christmas
touch to the Christmas shopping, and
to bring visions Of Santa Claus com-
ing in his old fashioned sleigh to the
minds Of the youngster who still
listens for the tinkle of the reindeer
bells on Christmas eve.
Christmas shopping which has been
carried on for the last ten days In
weather more suited to Easter than
Christmas received distinct I'M
petus with the advent OF snow and
crisp cold weather. The merchants
along Main street reported today that
there was a decided boost to the
crowds in their stores, today, and
that everyone was feeling much more
In the Christmas spirit than with
the spring like weather OF last week.
The rain yesterday threatened to
spoil the roads and to curtail shop
ping from the rural districts. The
freeze last night, however, has set
the roads again, and has put them in
first class condition. Continued cold
weather will make them hard as
pavement, good roads experts say,
and the increase in trade from the
outside districts is expected to be a
result s'+'~..'~|. =
The Keokuk merchants have stocks
of goods this year that are as attrac.
tive as any they have ever carried.
There is everything that one could
wish for in the line Of merchandise
and a gift for every member OF The
family. The merchants have chosen
their Christmas stock with greater
care this year than ever and are
selling it at prices which are greatly
reduced from the prices Of the war
periods.
The local stores are in holiday
dress, and Main street is in Christ
mas attire. The plea OF both mer-
chant and shopper has been for more
than week for Christmas weather. 1t
seems to have arrived, and it is ex-
pected that the stimulus to Christ
mas shopping will be great.
