niriERE is a biff difference in shoes. To a shoe
- man the difference is apparent but to the cus
tomer it sometimes is hard to distinguish be
tween the good and the bad. A "Welt" shoe is a
good shoe; a "makay" is inferior. We'll be glad to
show you the difference.
Our Men's Welts at $3.50 and $4.00

Mrs. E. C. McCluer last Friday after
noon. The beautiful parlors were dec
orated with yellow crysanthemums and
ferns. The popular game "500" was
indulged in. Instead of counting games
the scores were kept. On counting,
Mrs. F. W. Lester had the honors.
She was given a handsome copper fern
dish. The consolation prize, a small
piece of cut glass, was awarded to Mrs.
A. V. Gavin. The elaborate four
course lunch was in keeping with all
the other perfect appointments of the
afternoon. As a successful hostess
Mrs McCluer is too well known to need
any words of praise.
Wreck at Mullen
At 9:30 last Friday night just five
car lengths west of the switch at Mul
len occurred one of the worst freight
wrecks on this division for some time.
Conductor Charles Olsen and Engineer
A. E. Nelson on the local were unload
ing merchandise. Conductor E. V.
Cramer and Engineer Dutch Rodgers
on a stock extra east going about thirty
miles an hour struck the way car. The
engineer saw the way car in time to
jump. The fireman went through the
whole wreck and escaped with only a
few scratches. Conductor Cramer has
a severe cut on his face. The engine
and about seven cars of sheep were de
molished. So far no blame has been
placed on any one.
