These costumes, perhaps the mos,

twelve dancers appear in reproduc

The weight Of their costumes is con

DIR. RAsAR TO LEAVE CITY


1t is a matter of deep regret not
only to him but to the many
friends of DR. r. B. Rasar that he
has decided to leave the city. Dr..
Rasar has not been In good health
for some time, and the arduous
labers and long hours that his big
practice has subjected him to, has
continued to undermine his health
till he feels he must seek a place
where only office work will be ex-
pected of him. Fortunately the
doctors brother Dr. j. N Rasar of
Elizabethton. Tennessee has need
of a man to aid him in office and
hospital work, and our DR.. Rasar
will fit nicely into the place. DR.
Rasar will soon dispose Of his
household goods and practice.
1t is not often that a physician
will so quickly endear himself to
two communities as he has done
He has won the confidence of all
Eastern Prowers County and Baca
County and far beyond not simply
as good friend but as skiHful
and competent physician. We
wish him God speed.

showing of number Of Wesley

best that film makers produce.
The first picture in which Barry
will appear will be Heroes of the

in which Wesley has appeared and
two evenings of high class enter
tainment and fun is promised
local movie fans. On the above
dates Round two of Fighting
Blood the populer Golfers weekly
story, will be shown. Owing to the
extra cost of bringing high class
pictures to town the size of

charge a slightly increased admis-
sion but this charge will be kept
down to the very lowest possible
minimum. 10 and 30 cents. 1t has
mot been the policy of the Isis to
charge for special attractions since
their opening the first OF Septem-
Der but the added expense OF show
ing these "Kwality Pictures" make
it necessary to get a little more
money at the box office window.
However If you are not satisfied
these pictures are worth the extra
charge made. your money Will be
gladly refunded.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

Nine times In ten-we are safe
in saying ninety-nine times in a
hundred-where the merchants do
not advertise you will find the town
does not amount to much-not
enough going on for the paper to
get UP decent local page, no civic
pride, nothing to attract the stang
er-dead. The people send to mail
order houses for their supplies and
their money is gone, never to re-
turn. The hotels are poor excuses,
without modren conveniences, and
no one stops over night if it can be
avoided. They do not have tourist
camp. Money spent at home rota-
ties: it gives employment. The
money paid the local paper is like
bread east upon the water-it will
return many fold.
