Mail order concerns are spending thousands of dol-
lars every week in order to get trade from the

they would keep it up if they didn t get the busi-
ness?

sell, and what your prices are. Nine times out of
ten your prices are lower,' hut the customer is in-
fluenced by the up-to-date advertising of the

should be described and -priced. You must tell
your story m an interesting way, and when you

The Bosom friend of Bowser.
This very laughable three act
farce comedy wil be repeated by
special request at the Witcher
opera house Thursday, June 3rd,

was most excellently rendered by
the best local talent of the city,
under the direction of Mr. J. P.
Curran. If you would enjoy a
hearty, wholesome evening of
laughter, turn out Thursday
night. Admission 15c, 25c, and
35e. d24

Miss Mae Virginia Blair’s Seventh Re-
cital.
The crowning event in music
instruction here was the pleasing
recital given at the Witcher opera
house Tuesday night by Miss
Blair and her class of pupils, in
the presence of a large company
of patrons and friends.
Miss Blair had spared no pains
in making the surroundings
pleasing and the boquets of cape
jessamine ornamenting the stage
shed a delightful fragrance.
Each young pupil also wore the
flower, a gift from Miss Blair.
The class this year has num-
bered twenty, although only
seventeen pupils aided in the
recital. A number were only
first grade pupils and this was
their ffrst appearance on the
stage. These little tots did re-
markable well, and when they
become more accustomed to
appearing before the footlights,
will without a doubt acquit them-
selves with as much ease as they
do now when they know no
audience is listening. Several
older pupils who have taken only
the past year have made rapid
strides and last night played
third grade music. Among them
was Miss Hazel Hooper.
Pleasing recitations were inter-
spersed through the program.
These were given by Misses Ruth
Dawson, Ruth Dildy, Margaret
Stokes, Merle Easter- and Miss
Pearl Hill did exceptionally well
in a recitative, accompanied by
Miss Blair. Little Annie Ruth
Gray, accompanied by her teach-
er, sang a song, “Dolly’s Mam-
ma.” Eloise Lewis in singing
“Voice of the Woods,” evinced
talent and excellent training and
and deserves especial mention.
Susie Haynie handled fifth grade
music with ease, having also
appeared in the recital last year
with credit received hearty ap-
plause. It is impossible to give
special notice of each pupil, but
it must be sufficient to say that
all acquitted themselves with
credit to their instructress.
Those not already mentioned
as taking part in the program,
were: Misses Mamie Mitchell,
Fay Yates, Natalie Darby, Imo-
gene Reynolds, Ilene Lytton.
Miss Blair will resume her
work again in the Autumn after
spending part of the summer
with friends in the northern part
of the state.

Weather Report.
The following is the weather
forecast as reported by the gov-
ernment:
Tonight and Thursday partly
cloudy to cloudy weather, show-
ers.
Judge W. A. Blackburn died
at his home in Burnet Monday
night, after an illness which con-
fined him to his home and to his
bed for the greater part of two
years. He served the old 33rd
judicial district of Texas, includ-
ing Lampasas, Burnet, Mills and
San Saba, counties for more than
twenty years and was recognized
as one of the fair, impartial and
well qualified administrators of
justice in Texas'. He was a
Christian gentleman, a kind hus-
band, an indulgent father and
obliging neighbor. A number of
friends went over from here to
attend the funeral.
Your Laundry.
Your laundry will be properly
cared for, if you call me. The
best work, reasonable prices. I
gather Monday. Deliver Thurs-
day. Give me your work.

Commencement Exercises.
The inclement weather of Tues-
day did not prevent a goodly
sized audience from attending
the enjoyable closing exercises
presented that evening by the
pupils of St. Dominie Villa.
The program was short and
pleasing, consisting of a number
of extremely well rendered music-
al selections, weich showed care-
ful teaching and diligent prac-
tice—and a beautiful operetta in
three acts.
The principal parts of the latter
were well taken by Misses Car-
rie Cantrell, Mary Moore and
Nellie Cahill, while a full chorus
of daintily attired fairies and
mountain children, was made up
by the remainder of the students.
In the library the beautiful art
word of Misses Keller and Buck-
land was exhibited, as was also
the embroidery made by various
pupils. A number tied for the
several gold medals which were
won by the following: conduct,
Nelsen Wilson; Christian doc-
trine, Beatrice Guerrero; dili-
gence, Lee Gilmore; music,
Mary Moore. The silver medals
were presented as follows: Chris-
tian doctrine, Dorthy Neibert;
conduct, Mabel Winstead; dili-
gence, Elizabeth McCarcle;
music, Mary Desmond.
A great many premiums were
also presented to those making
good grades during the term.
A large party of out-of-town
guests came to Lampasas for the
occasion.
Mrs. Roy Kelly and children, of
Caldwell, arrived Tuesday for
a visit with Mrs. Kelly’s sister,
Mrs. J. D. Dorbandt.
Miss Lucile Cauthen has re-
turned home after an absence of
several months and her many
friends are glad to have her with
them again.
Mrs. McGregor and children,
of Belton, are here on a visit to
Rev. W. H. McGee and Mr. and
Mrs. W. B. McGee. They will
remain several weeks.
