co-operation we can give you in getting the right things. You may want
Hart Schaffner & Marx
clothes-a suit for outing wear; one of the new pinch-back or belt-back
styles; extremely popular with young men, and with some older men. Maybe

to supply all such needs very prompty and to your complete satisfaction.

HAS YOUR SON A BANK ACCOUNT?
Has your boy a Bank Account of his own
here? Start him with a small sum here. Then
put the Bank Book in his hands. Encourage
him to add to it. Let him not only learn the
habit of banking money, but he will work
whenever he can and make some money. He
will learn the habit of being industrious. An
industrious son doesn’t grow up into the kind
of man who breaks his parents’ hearts. It’s
up to you to start your boy. Not to-morrow—
nor the next day—nor the day after—but
now—just now. Will you do so ?

The month of May was the banner
month for the produce dealers of this
city, but the month of June promises
to exceed the record established by
May. During the month of May the
hustling produce firm of Zimmerman
& Son paid out for farm produce, to
the farmers of this vicinity, the
enormous sum of $9,316.60. If the
month of June continues as good as
the first ten days they will pay out
over,$12,000.00 for the month of June.
For the first five months of this year
this firm has paid out $26,664.06 for
farm produce. This gives a good in
dication of the prosperity of the
farmers of this section of the state.

O’Neill Boosters Boost.
Led by Mayor Disbner, twenty-two
automobiles carrying the O’Neill band
and over 100 business men and citizens
of O’Neill, constituted a Booster Club
that left the city Tuesday at 11 a. m.
for the purpose of advertising the
celebration to be held here on July
4th. Arriving at Atkinson at 12:16
p. m. the band played a couple of
selections after which dinner was had
at the various hotels and restaurants.
After dinner there was music by the
band, which was heartily applauded.
Hugh Boyle, in a few well chosen
words, stated the object of the visit,
and, on behalf of the Mayor and
citizens of O’Neill, extended a very
earnest and cordial invitation to the
citizens of Atkinson to celebrate the
Fourth in O’Neill. Mr. Boyle’s re
marks were well received and indi
cations are that Atkinson will be well
represented at our celebration. Leav.
ing Atkinson at 1:35 the delegation
arrived in Stuart at 2:20 p. m. The
, band entertained, for about half an
hour, a fairly large crowd that had
assembled on the streets. Mr. Boyle,
in extending a hearty invitation to
the people of Stuart to celebrate with
us, called attention to facts as to why
people should celebrate July 4th—more
particularly this year, St not only
being the anniversary day of our in
dependence, but that we were still
enjoying the liberties then obtained
and at peace with the world, which is
in such striking contrast to conditions
that prevail in war-stricken Europe.
A prominent citizen of Stuart told
the writer that there would be at least
200 Stuart visitors attend the cele
bration here.
Leaving Stuart about 3 p. m. the
Boosters returned via Emmet, where
they were well received by the citizens
of that thriving little village. Music
by the band and the talk by Mr. Boyle
entertained the crowd fop about thirty
minutes.
Taken as a whole the Booster trip
was a success in every way.'
Next Tuesday there will be a Ladies
Booster trip to the towns of Inman,
Ewing, Orchard and Page. The party
will leave the Golden Hotel in this
city next Tuesday morning at 10:30
and will visit the above towns in the
order named. A sufficient number of
the sterner sex will go along to see
that the ladies are properly guarded
against automobile breakdowns, etc.
