Gaines Satterwhite has bought
the grocery stock of Graves &
Company, and will continue at
the old stand with a stock of gro-
ceries big enough and also good
enough to meet the wants of our
people. He very much wishes
to hold the old friends and custo-
mers of Johnny Graves and to

grocery business and proposes
to conduct it in the right man-
ner. When you want the best

it in stock and at the right price.

Did you ever stop to think that
you do four things, just four
and no more? You think; you
remember; you imagine; you act.
When you learn to think better,
remember, remember better, im-
agine better or act better, you are
increasing your effciency, and,
therefore, your income. You
may feel that you are very suc-
cessful now. Suppose you are;
it isn’t a question of what you
know, but of how beneficial a
practical business education will
be to you in addition to what you
already know. You will agree
with us that to violate a part of
the laws of business means par-
tial failure, and to violate all the
laws means complete failure,
foa are also aware that to
observe part of the laws of busi-
less means partial success, and
.o observe all the laws means
complete success. Our aim is to
coding. oaiLei wimc uaa j complete success, uur aim is lo
what you need. Visitors giv£ no I help you observe a higher per
trouble when vou buv vour erro- 3ent of the laws of success, and.
trouble when you buy your gro

This week was ushered in by
the worst blizzard of the season
and the ground was white with
snow and the cold intense. It
was such a spell of weather as
comes but once or twice a year
in Texas. Tuesday evening
found the force of the storm spent
and the sun again shining.

Points
.h Brefore, enable you to be nearer
;he maximum success. The late
Prof. James of Harvard declared
.hat the average man only uses
ten per cent of his brain power.
Suppose you are twice as capable
as the average man? Even that
would mean you use only twenty
per cent of your maximum pos-
sibilities. The purpose of our
course is to produce a maximum
of proficiency with a minimum
effort. Did you ever stop to
think that eighty-five per cent of
the men of this country are earn-
ing only $15 k week or less?
That ninety-two per cent fail in
business between the ages of 40
and 50? That ninety-five per
cent have no money at the age of
60? We have been very success-
ful in getting men out of the 85,
the 92 and the ninety-five per
cent class. Why not let us help
you? We have been marvelously
successful in raising salaries, as
is conclusively proved by the let-
ters in our catalog from former
students. The business world
wants thinkers and doers.
There’s a famine of high priced
men today; there are thousands
of men worth a thousand dollar’s
a year, but only a few worth ten
thousand a year. Be the latter
kind of a man; you can if you will

Come From Where
Cold Breezes Blow
Mr. and Mrs. Lon McGuire and
baby, Carl, reached Cumby Tues-
day night from Shenandoah,
Iowa, to spend some time with
his parents, Rev. W. L. McGuire
and wife. They came with the
blizzard all the way and natural-
ly felt at home when they arrv-
ed. This is one of the modern
conveniences of travel —taking
the North Pole along with you,
but it is hard on the Texans.
Yet anyone escaping from the
frozen North, if only tempora-
rily, should be allowed many
priveleges.
We have too many Ladies*
Sweaters and Jerseys, in the
new styles, and they ail go
now at extra reduceu paices.
A. W. Denton.
C. M. Bradley, optometrist, has
moved here from Commerce to
practice his profession. He comes
well recommended by the physic-
ians of that city. He will office
with Dr. Clark and have special
days to examine and treat your
eyes.
At the home of her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Morton, on
Main St., Miss Ruthe entertained
Jan. 2, from 8, till 11.
The home was tastefully ar-
ranged and the guests were met
by the hostess who was attired in
a dainty costume of Crepe de-
chine. After the arrival of the
guests, score cards were passed
and nine interesting games of
“42” were played.
Folios were then given each one
on which a spaced sketch was
written. Spaces to be filled in
with names of old songs. All
were busily occupied for some
minutes, taxing memory for the
songs of Auld Lang Syne. C. E.
McGuire read the finished sketch
which portrayed a happy meeting
of old friends.
Then a large poster filled with
pictures of leading advertise-
* fit* , . -
ments was placed where all
could see and we were asked to
write the names of the ads oppo-
site corresponding numbers on
folios.
This contest showed how the
advertising sections of the maga-
zines and newspapers concern the
people of today. After the cor-
rect answers were read by the
hostess, the poster was replaced
by the popular Kewpie Kutouts
of Dotty Darlings Baby Brother.
Drawing paper was passed and
the contest of the evening was
on, demanding all our atistic
skill in reproducing Baby Bro-
ther. The drawings were placed
in the hands of the judges;
Messrs G. M. M. Morton, Arlie
Smith, and Mrs. Ella Denny.
We were asked to return to our
respective tables and the game of
“42” was resumed, while the
judges carefully studied the draw-
ings. The decision was in favor
of Miss Mattie Williams, who was
presented with a box of candy by
the hostess.
Stuffed apples and cake were
served to the following guests:
Missess Keetop, Granberry, Via,
Weaver, Williams, Pearl and Jau-
nita Green. Messrs Connor, Gor-
don, Edmonds, Lewis and Mer-
cer. Mr. and Mrs. Berry, Smith,
Currin, Lindley, Benton, Mr.
and Mrs. C. E. McGuire of Sul-
phur Springs, Mrs. Denny, and
