Each valuable article has its imitation—
imitating size, shape, color and texture—and im-
itations invariably go into the hand* of those who
can least afford to possess them.
So it is with shoes. Imitation leather
is used to reduce the price,—that's all^ but it sel-
dom reduces the cost to the wearer.
You pay for what you get—don't forget
that—and the wise folks, the successful ones, have
learned that in buying cheapness they pay most for
what they get.
You see them wearing Selz Shoes be-
cause they are the best all-leather shoes for the
money. That's true. We know it. It's economy
and they know it. Value is the thing. You get
it in Selz Shoes, plus a real helpful service.
False economy is the twin of hard luck.

Successful Meeting
| One of the most successful mcet-
; ings of the Hamilton-Brock revival
| was held last night. There was a large
| audience present and at the close of
a sermon on "Mother," eleven per-
sons professed faith in Christ and
signified their intention to begin a
| christian life. A large number of
! persons were baptized at the begin-
ning of the service.
j The song service last night was one
of the most effective that chorister
Brock has led. He invited any one in
the audience to request the favorite
song of his mother, and a score or
more of the old time hymns such as
"Jesus, Lover of My Soul," "My
Savior First of All," and "Rock of
Ages" were hehrtily sung by the big
audience. Mr. and Mrs. Brock sang a
duet of their own composition entitled
"Back to Mother's Knee." That mem-
ories of the most sacred kind were
aroused by the song was evident from
the tears that coursed the faces of
many in the audience while the fol- j
lowing lines, written by Mr. Brock j
and set to music by his wife, were I
being bourn to the ears of eager lis- j
teners by perfectly blended voices.
i
There's a place above all others,
Where, tonight, I long to be;
It is back among the home folks, I
Close beside by mother's knee. i
I would gladly live life o'er
Just to be with her once more;
It's a long way back to dear old
mother's knee.
But I left the dear old homestead.
Wandered far from mother's knee;
To the world I turned my footsteps,
I would all life's pleasures see.
There I found but sin and pain,
And now long for home again;
It's a long way back to dear eld
mother's knee.
I have sought the Savior's pardon
And from sin I know I'm free,
Yet I long to see my mother,
Just to bow upon her knee;
Should I ne'er beside her stand
Till in heav'n she takes my hand
It is there I'll bow again at mother's
knee."
The sermon by Evangelist Hamil-
ton was one of the highest tribute*
ever paid to motherhood in a Norman
pulpit. It was replete with striking il-
lustrations and eloquent appeals to
love and cherish the one who gave us
birth, man's best earthly friend. His
discourse dealt with the likeness of (
the love of God to a mother's love.
There was scarcely a dry eye in the
house during most of the sermon.
Tonight the Odd Fellows lodge will
attend the service in a body and oc-
supy a special reservation. Other dele-
gations are being planned for the lat-
ter part of the week.
