McCALL'S
NORMAN'S GREATEST STORE
Say, Mister, are you going to >
dress up for Easter? If so, this store j
is the place to get your suit, hat, I
shoes, shirts and ties.—Kucker's.
iMayor S. W. Hutchin is cele-
brating his 59th birthday today
(March 14, 1918), and his friends are
hoping he may celebrate many more
such anniversaries.
Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Freeman ar-
med home from Chicago last night.
The body of their son, Emmett, had
not arrived today and it has not yet
been determined when the funeral
will be held.
—Councilman A. W. Tobarman con-
tinues to improve and hopes to soon
be completely recovered. The soreness
has been localized into the heart of
the hand, and the swelling gone out of
the arm so that fear of blood poison-
ing has practically vanished.
Raymond Tullius, the young man
here from Great Lakes on furlough,
made the Transcript ofice a pleasant
call yesterday with his uncle, Peter
Tullius. He will return to Great
Lakes on Thursday of next week. He
is a fine appearing young man, and is
pleased with navy life.
—Lawrence Tullius, now in France,
writes his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Peter Tullius, that he has not heard
from them for several weeks, al-
though they write regularly every day,
or two. Evidently the mails are very
irregular. He says he got a Tran-
script-Enterprise of Feb. 14th, "and
you may depend uoon if" he says,
"that I devoured it from kiver to
kiver."

While in Oklahoma City on Wednes-
day, W. N. Rucker ran across H. G.
Cook of Pawhuska, who was there, ac-
companied by his daughter, to under-
go an operation in one of the hos-
pitals. The operation was for an ail-
ment in his head, and was expected to
be quite a serious one. He says Mr.
Cook seemed to be in very poor
health, but was in hopes the opera-
tion would reliev.e him.

—Rucker Sells Purcell Store: The
Transcript-Enterprise learns that W.
N. Rucker has sold his Purcell store
to T. R. Hardy and Judge Jacobs of
that city, and those gentlemen are
now in charge. They expect to orga-
nize a stock company. Mr. Rucker will
retain an interest, but be relieved of
the active management. The Rucker
Purcell Store has long been noted as
one of the leading mercantile estab-
lishments of that city, has enjoyed a
wide patronage and fine business, and
we trust the new owners will make as
great a success as made by Mr. Ruek-
at the
