A telegram received here yesterday
by J.eroy Baker from J. C. Baker at
Dallas, stated that the condition of
their brother, Guy H. Baker, had
(hanged slightly for the better in the
past twenty-four hours. Guy Baker,
;he well known Temple Contractor,
was run down by a Cadillac car at
Dallas Monday night in front of (he
terminal station as he was preparing
to return to Temple. A fractured
t-kull and other dangerous Injuries
were inflicted. His wife And brother

after the accident occurred.

ly all erected which enables an esti-
mate to be made of the magnitude of
the improvements under way.
The latter constitutes what is prac-
tically an extension of the present
main building from its west end-al-
most to the line of First Street. The
entire space between the west wall of
the new pool to the Y building proper
will be roofed over and I he space
utilized for increased gymnasium
facilities in addition to the require-
I nients of the bathing pool,
Construction is being pushed as
J rapidly as possible in order to have
j everything in readiness before the

near the Daily Telegram office yes-
terday as a preliminary to paving the
alley bisecting the block bounded by
First and Third si reels and Central

material used. Rearrangement of

Compress Had His Tear.
Nearly 80,000 bales of cotton have
been received at the Central Texas
Compress for the season now drawing
to a close which is the largest number
the press has accomodated in many
years. If indeed it does not break pre-
vious records. Approximately 74,000
bales have been pressed, the re-
mainder representing flat cotton held
in storage.
The great majority of (he bales rep-
resent rail receipts originating on the
Santa Fe south of Brownwood and
south of McGregor; the M. K. & T.
south of Waco.
Yesterday 153 bales of wagon cot-
ton was received at the press which
is the largest day's business in some
time .although scarcely a day passes
that some wagon cotton does not drift
In.
The Temple market Is drawing from
a wide area which attests its superior-
ity as a market- Cotton from Jarre!),
Seattle and other distant points ar-
rives regularly.
Cluh Changes Meeting Date.
The Hl-Y club has changed Its

Declamation Contest Tonight.
Tonight at the High School audi-
torium at 8 o'clock will occur the
tryout contests between declaimers
representing the boys and girls of the
school for the purpose of selecting a
represenlaUve of each sex (o partici-
pate in the county interscholastic con-
test to be staged here on March 26.
The subject assigned is that of Amer-
icanism arid each contestant will treat
the subject In an original manner.
The boys taking part include Hugh
Harris, Chas. F.ewis, Robert Moore
and Edward Jarrell; girls, Emily Al-
len, Louise Baker, Frances Swink.
Ferrol Cheeves, Margaret Downs and
Mary Lois Callaway.
Girls Hard At Practice.
The High School gtiis track team
is engaged ill daily practice prepara-
tory to its contest with the Belton
team during the coming interscholas-
tic meet to be held here March 2(j,
The local team wgrks out every day
on Woodson Field and as many as
fifteen girls have been present at one
time. They will engage their rivals
in the 30 yard dash; broad jump:
basket ball throw and 120 yard relay
race. The scrimmage will be for
the silver cup which goes to the team
winning the events of three successive
meets. Temple won the first two and
then gave way to Belton team which
has won the last two. If Belton wins
this year, the cup will become a per-
manent trophy for that team, Tem-
ple will have to win three straights in
order to get the cup but if it can de-
feat Belton this year it will set the
latter back where it will have to com-
mence all over again. Cnder these
circumstances this contest will be of
far reaching importance and will
arouse more than ordinary interest.
Baseball Season 0|>eiis Today.
Elements permitting, the 1921 base-
ball season will be formally opened
in Temple at Woodson field this aft-
ernoon at 4:40 o'clock. The contest-
ants will be the High school and Santa
Fe shop teams. Several futile at-
tempts to open the season have been
made and It is hoped that better luck
will attend today's attempt.
It is probable that Dangeleisen arid
Eckels will work for Temple in bat-
tery positions, while the Intentions of
the opposing team remain secret.
High school authorities agree that (he
1921 team shows up belter so far this
season than any team In previous
years. Heretofore no practice grounds
or facilities have been available for

A Dream Home.
Some people never get beyond
dreaming about a home. They have
extravagant Castes and are unwilling
to deny themselves anything in order
to get a real start in life. But they
want a home and talk about it and
dream abqpt and then go right ahead
spending their entire Income.
Directly those rich tastes become
fixed habits in their lives, then they
never do start to saving.
There are some people in Temple
who have already crossed the dead
line and will live and die without a
year's provision ahead. Others are
approaching the line. Others are just
starting in the wrong direction.
Temple Trust company urges thrift
and economy. It urges every man to
save a part of what he earns if It is
only $10 per month.
That is a slow start, but even that
will make a boy of 20 Independent in
old age.
Temple Trust company allows 7
per cent Interest on any aniouht of
J 10.00 or mote from the day it is left
here and invests the money in First
Mortgage notes. It is a safe, sane,
sure way of owning a home. Don't
quit- with a dream, save your dollars.

Who
ci
Promoter ?
A salesman from a near-by or distant city who puts on a farce or hot
air sale for a merchant, for which he usually receives 10 per cent of the
store's gross sales during the time he is in charge of such sale.
We claim this is some fee, especially when one's sales average over $45,000.00 a month;
a little more than half a million a year.
We do not think the buying public should pay this 10 per cent; neither should a sale
promoter receive such fees.
Now, we propose to give our Customers and Friends this 10 per cent—and not give it
to some sale promoter.
Beginning Today: After making a purchase of us, no matter in what department, our
sales force have been authorized to deduct 10% from the amount of your purchases.
Our Guarantee: Every article sold we absolutely guarantee to be as low or lower than
promoters. All goods absolutely marked in
the price quojed at other stores by sales
