The basketball girls played Keene
Wednesday. The game was a good
one with a score of 0 and 12 in our
favor. That is the kind of games
we like. Mrs. Letha Hargrove of
Burleson refereed the game and Mr
Dyer of Bethesda umpired it.
The boys game came out with a
score of 31 and 1 in Keene’s favor.
Our boys are beginners, and, too
they have to steal time from the
girls when they practice.
The item appearing in the recent
issue of the Review stating that
Jack Ireland and Gordon McMahan
attended a show in Fort Worth when
they were at a DeMolay meeting in
this city was an error. The item was
turned in at the Review office by
two young men purporting to be the
parties reporting the personal news
in this instance.
The Review wishes to state in this
connection that while it appreciates
its friends bringing in all manner of
news .personals stories and au-
nouncements of every description,
the Review is no joke sheet, and
hereafter all »u h items as the one
referred to will have to be vouched
for from parental residences before
they are used, or come through the
regular social columns.

A choice piece of property at a bargain price is of-
fered in the two-story double-front brick building now
occupied by Claude Pitts Furniture store; this building
is 55 by 80 feet, two-story and has the most modern and
attractive front of any building in Cleburne. It is owned
by a non-resident bank, that is now in liquidation, hence
the reason why the property can be bought at such a low
price. If you have been waiting to make an investment
of this character, I will be glad to talk the matter over
with you.
Nice five-room modern bungalow, facing east on
Douglas Ave., to sell to any responsible party, with a
small cash payment, and terms on balance, almost like
rent; this is a very desirable piece of property, and an
opportunity for some man to own a home on very easy
terms.
A good small sandy land farm of 40 acres; 30 acres
in cultivation; has good orchard, good barn, six-room
house, located 5% miles from Cleburne on good public
road, worth $50 per acre; clear of encumbrance; owner
will trade for home of about equal value any where in
Cleburne, if well located. .
A modern 5-room cottage on paved street in West
Cleburne, with all conveniences for $3500. Owner will
take a-good automobile as first payment, and arrange
satisfactory terms on balance.
---. Achoice east front lot on Prairie Avenue for $1350,
including paving. If you want a choice building location,
this is an opportunity, and you had better act quickly.
Located in the western edge of Cleburne, I have a
very desirable five-room house, east front, with all con-
veniences, including chicken lot, chicken house, garage -
and store-room, all in first-class condition, with cement
walks; owner wants to exchange for another home lo-
cated near the business section of the city. If you have
been wanting to get out where you have r 0 0 m for
chickens etc., and not be crowded, let me show you this
— property. Owner will give or take reasonable difference,—
as the deal might justify.
A modern five-room bungalow with all conven-
iences, including hot and. cold water, in the northwest
part of Cleburne, for $2/50. Owner is non-resident, and
will take a good automobile as first payment, with sat-
isfactory terms on balance. This property is practically
new. “ 4ns
