New Kind of Store
for the Grand Depot
When Fortune Favored the Brave

In those days, there were such large stores
as there are now
People we're not known to visit and enjoy the
sights of new goods as they do now.
In old times, manager stood inside of the store
and directed all comers
When a locker said, 81 will take that" the
purchase sealed pact; and nothing expected
to come back, and when it did, it was for exchange
and not for return of money.
All this was changed by the New Grand Depot
People ocked to it and they have done so since
They were, and are still, always welcomed.
Monthly accounts, bills rendered the end of the
month, were encouraged as a convenience to the
Icustomer and saving of time to the clerks.
Hospitalities of public comfort arranged
and people came from the country to spend the day.

CHRISTMAS TREE
 AND CHRISTMAS MUSIC

Throughout the length and breadth of the land today Christmas is being celebrated with ingenious plans and beautiful attention to detail.
 Music, of which Cowper has said How soft the music of those village bells falling at intervals upon the ear In cadence sweet" will play It's part In church and concert hall. the hotel, and the home, and with accus- toned attention to the niceties of it's musical program, the Tutwiler today offers programs by Veo's music in- cluding Christmas carols, melodies and songs especially approriate to the occasion.
 In the center of the large foyer of the TutWiler stands a huge Christmas tree, towering many feet high, fes- tooned gracefully with tinsel and sil- yer. trailing smilax and radiant incan- descent lights beckoning the stranger within our gates" welcome for the Yule-tide season, and bidding him come and partake of "Ye Old Fash . toned Feast" which will await his calling, while Christmas souvenirs or novelty trinkets will be dispensed and music with it's soft harmonious ca dences and rhythmic notes will wait gently OCT all the happy environment.
 The overture" to "Jubel' tWeherl will open the Christmas program this evening, followed by four Indian Love Lyrics" and the ever beautiful Kreisler "Andatino" for violin will be played by MT. Harold Veo, the pro gram ending with selections from Puccini's "Boheme" and "Christmas Carols" of the eighteenth century.

 The magnificent chime of bells, which was presented by an unknown benefactor to the South Highlands Methodist church, will peal forth on this Christmas day in glory to the Most High and in a message of peace on earth, good will toward men"
 Kindness, self-sacrIfice and love have ever made the strongest of all appeals to the human heart. And perhaps there will be no more beau tiful expression today of the Christ mas spirit as sym bolized in the per feet gift than will be shown this aft ernoon In the lovely pageant Why the Chimes Rang"
 The pageant will be presented at A.3o o'clock in the church, under the direction of Mrs. W. D. Smith, Mrs. A. W. B. Johnson and Mrs. John NJ. Cartwright.
 Miss Evalina wnkinson, who is both beautiful and talented, will read the lovely old story by Raymond Mac donald Alden, telling of another peal of bells which was rung on Christmas eve by angel hands.
 She will speak of tho far-away country with It's great cathedral and it's lofty tower, in which hung the wonderful chime of bells which only rang, in its marvellous tones. when a perfect gift was placed upon the altar in the church below.
 At the time of the story, centuries ago, the chime had long been silent because ths gifts offered to God were unworthy, entailing no sacrifice and being only what the donors did not want for themselves.
 Miss wilkinson will relate how at
