You are reading this paragraph now because you have learned to look for something of value in these columns. Here’s something that is worth much to you. What stores have the best goods and at the most reas onable prices in this town? How can you know what stores they are? Watch the ads in this paper, for they tell the story. The merchant who spends money in advertising his goods in variably has goods that are worth advertising, and his prices must of necessity be right or he could not afford to call special attention to them through the public print. Just glue your eye to the ads and you will save time, trouble and money—especially money. Mell Gordon, editor of the Arcadia champion, was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident about two weeks ago. The following is what he has to say in regard to it: “If you have never had the pleas ure of getting mixed up with a buck ing motorcycle of the two-cylinder type, you have missed one of the most exciting and thrilling experiences that can fall to the lot of a human in a lifetime. We have had the ex perience and we know. We thought that our machine could run right over a measly little single-cylinder affair, but when we struck it our machine began to buck and we were thrown about ten feet in the air and the blamed thing proceeded to kick us all iover—on the shins, on the back of the head, and then, not being satis fied with this rough treatment, finally got us underneath and rode us around the race track for a spell. It was ex citing, all right, but we were glad to get out of the mixup and still be on earth, though somewhat disfigured and badly bruised up. The bucking motorcycle has the bucking broncho backed clear off the track for genuine action and excitement, believe me.” A Story of the Mountains.
