Charley Schultz of Franklin was
badly hurt Wednesday morning, how
serious is not known at this time. Mr.
Schultz and Elmer Swallow were 011
their way to Norman riding together
on the top of some furniture and in
going down a hill the wagon ran in-
to a chug hole frightening the horses
Both men were pitched forward land-
ing on the wagon tongue between the
horses. Mr. Schultz lost his hold and
fell, the wagon wheels passing over
his neck and side of his face. Mr.
Swallow held on until the foot of the
hill was reached and in some manner
succeeded in getting the team stop-
ped. A doctor was called; but how
serious the injuries Mr. Schultz re-
ceived would prove he could not tell.

A GOLD AND WHITE LUNCHEON
On Saturday, October 2, the Mer-
ry Makers club hied themselves to
the home of Mrs. L. J. Edwards in
response to. her invitation to come
and spend the afternoon. The cor-
dial welcome, the cool shaded rooms
decorated with masses of golden rod
presaged the enjoyment to come.
Aften spending some time with
needlework , in chat anent the hap-
penings of vacation, interspersed with
discussions of the latest book., ,
offered by the Winans Merchantile
Company for the best loaf of bread
brought to their store each Saturday
baked from either Square Deal or
Red Star flour took place Saturday
afternoon. The loaves were number-
ed as they were brought in and a
duplicate number given to the per-
son who brought the loaf. In the af-
ternoon three disinterested ladies
were selected as judges who did not
know the holders of any of the num-
bers were chosen to decide the best
loaf. The ladies who acted Saturday
as judges were Mesdames M. M.
Ford, O. J. McLaughlin, and Philip
Frick. They decided upon loaf num-
ber 1, which we understand was bak-
ed by Mrs, H. S. Winans. About a
dozen fine loaves -were entered in the
.contest, which made a very nice win
I dow display. The contest will be con-
tinued from Saturday to Saturday
each week until further notice. It is
"Pen to everybody, the only re-tric-
tion being that the bread be baked
Irom either Red Star or Square Deal
flour. It is a very unique advertise-
ment and is causing much comment.
Xearly every passerby Saturday stop

play. Mr. Winans says that he has
never sold a brand of flour that has
given so much satisfaction.

A WORD
I2r?UR CUSTOMERS
AND hRIENDS: : : : : :
For the past two months we have been fitting
up our new store room ami selecting our new „ock of
gents furnishing goods. We have been too busy with
our work of preparing our new store room and in sel
ecting and getting in our new stock, to extend invi-a
"°ns 'o our friends and customers to visit us; but
we are now at home and invite you all to come and
visit us and bring your friends .long and see one of
the finest fitted up gents furnishings stores in the
new state and one of the best selected up to date -ems
furnishing stocks to be found anywhere. An inviu
"°n t0 Visit ,ls at thi* ^e is not extended for the
purpose of selling you anything, but rather for the pur
pose of showing you our store and stock of goods
We know you will buy from us when you need
anything in our line. Why do we say this? Because
we have Ihe goods that will please you, and at prices
that ca-mot be beaten anywhere for the money. Kup
penhelmer, Michael and Stern CY,thing, for quality
style, and fit cannot be beaten, and Ralston and Fel
lowcraft footwear is the best that skill can make and
sell for the price. Our line throughout has all been
carefully selected and all new goods. We don't keep
goods in slock until they become old. We sell them
while they are still new and in style. S ,me merchants
use hct air ' to sell goods. We depend on the merits
of our goods to sell them and this is why you never
hear of a dissatisfied customer who purchased some
thing at Ephraimi. Our customers are the best ad-
vertisers we have Hoping that readers of this ad-
vertisement will pay us a visit in the near future, we
remain,
Vours to serve.
