half drugged with sleep, had staggered

voice broke. He knew that she was
crying.

that. It's late"

He hung up the receiver and
dressed in feverish haste. Hardly

the house. At the station he caught

he arrived at his destination Fred

face was drawn and haggard.

wanted it,

He remembered in that moment the
night that Natalie and Fred had told
them about their engagement. How
young they had seemed then. And

San Antonio's liquor supply is dis

lot of fun in the nunU.
This hunt will mark the opening
of the red arrow campaign which
will be run by the members of the
red arrow club for year or longer
for the purpose of rewarding those
who steadily trade at their stores
and to demonstrate that better mer-
chandise for better prices can be OBJ
tanned right here in our town than
in any larger city or from any cata-
log mail order house.
Each merchant in the red arrow
club will give what is termed red
arrow money on every cash pur-
chase, dollar for dollar; on a 25c
purchase, 25c in red arrow money is
given, ETC. This money is of the
same amount as the purchase, but
can be spent only at the time and
way specified by the red arrow
stores.

any time between now and the date
of the auction. The highest bidder
will pay for the article in red arrow
money, and must be present in per-

You will enjoy these auctions and
become one of the many bidders for
the attractive articles put up by the
Red Arrow club, at the many auc-
tions they will be holding. If you
don't win the article you bid on at
the first auction, save your red ar
row money for the next one.
Watch the Red Arrow places for
bulletins and posters announcing the
various special offers and feature
events. Save your red arrow mon
ey so you will be able to join in on
the various features that will be put
on by the Red Arrow club. Get in on
the fun at the very start and attend

The members of the Red Arrow
club are to be congratulated on
putting in operation this well-worked
out plan which other cities are re-

fun for their customers that has
ever been devised and SO our mer-
chants are to be commended for
taking it on in such big and pro-
gressive way.
