this matter. Encourage your boy to
study the bulletins sent him.

MADAME HueeARp's PLACE.

In visiting Madame Hubbard's, the
pioneer milliner, 1907 "a E. 18th St,
Bell phone Clifton 479O, we find one
of the coziest places that one can
imagine.
Naturally for one who remains, sue
cess comes, and Mrs. Hubbard has
plodded away until she is getting re-
suits and has proven by her genius
that it can be done. Instead of few
satisfied customers she pleases hun
dreds. She has the best quality hos
iery at the lowest prices for men and
women and children. Her millinery
compares favorably with anything in
town and without eXaggeration from
the writer's own view of the matter
you would agree with her by visiting
the store-that you were in one of the
exclusive shops of the down town dis
tricts. You will find afternoon hats,
evening hats, tailored, and in fact hats
are exclusive in design and superior in
quality, we find here as no place else
in the city the prices certainly beat
the H. c. of L.
Mrs. Hubbard's establishment is a
credit to the city, the state and race
at large. We doff our hats to Kansas
Citys pioneer milliner and rare bust
ness woman. The visitors to our city
will not have seen all points of in
terest in Kansas City until they see
Mrs. Hubbard's place.

astronomers tell us that it would be

HUNT SUIT FOR
AUTO MONEY Is
STILL IN COURT

Attorneys for the principals in
the Hunt-Swartout controversy in
circuit court opened their argu-
ments this morning shortly before
noon following the examination and
cross examination Of a number Of
witnesses for both sides. The case
has developed into long and te-
dious combat to decide how much
an old Moon automobile was worth
in 1918. Harold Hunt, the plaintiff
in the case, alleges that his auto
mobile, which was LETT at the
Swartout garage in Aledo, was sold
after being rebuilt and the sum of
$50 which was offered him by Cor
nelius Swartout, the defendant, was
insufficient. Attorneys for both
sides endeavored to find out how
much the machine was worth by
questioning the number of autOmo-
bile mechanics and statesmen on the
witness stand. Several Of the num-
Der examined we're employed at the
Swartout garage and were firm in
their assertion that the sum of $50
was the worth of the car. Attorney
Robert L. Watson for the plaintiff
endeavored by cross examination to
show that the witnesses who testi-
fed to the worth Of the car were
misjudging its value by asking the
prices on individual parts Of the
machine. 1t is expected that the
jury will be given the case this aft
ernoon.
