FOR WICHITA TEAM
' At the risk of tipping off some en-
terprising criminal we venters to re-
mark that if one of the ideas ad-
vanced in Elsie Ferguson’s new pic-
ture, “Counterfeit,” which will be
shown at the Empress today and to-
morrow, were adapted to real life, it
would keep the secret service author,
ities sitting up nights. The film pre-
seats Miss Ferguson as a. Southern
girl of a distinguished family, now in
financial straits, who joins the secret
service to try and win the reward of-
fered for rounding up a band of coun-
terfeiters. The clues lead her to the
homes of the rich at Newport, and
she traces the forgers not to a sordid
den in some secluded spot, but to a
lavishly furnished yacht lying in the
harbor, which to certainly something
new in the way of fake moner-mokicer
establishments. It has everything to
recommend it—novelty, safety and
the means of a quick get-away. If
any arch-crook does make use of this
idea, let us hope that some capable
Southerner like Miao Ferguson is on
the job to foil him.
The picture is thoroughly enter-
taining and in addition to the stars
pleasing T work, introduces a support-
ing cast Of uniform excellence.
As an added attraction the Empress
is offering one of Mack Sennett’s
rapid-fire comedies. “Up to Alf’s
Place.” In which all of, his famous
coterie of bathing beauties are been
as gymnasium girls. The cast in-
. cludes all of Mack Sennett’s fun-
* makers, and the action is said to be
fast and furious, as well as abounding
to unsunliy mirthful situations. , v

announcement that Jake Miller, Ben-
ny Brownlow and Otto Rath will re-
port for training here on March 10.
Miller, one of the fastest outfielders
in the minors, played with Mobile
in the Southern Association last sea-
son. He was the property of the St.
Louis Cardinals and was obtained by
Salm through a deal with the major
league club.
Otto Ruth to a brother of “Babe”
Ruth, Col. Ruppert's $125,000 pitcher
and home run artist. Otto has been
playing ball with a semi-pro club to
Athens, Texas. He also is a twirler,
and has an enviable semi-pro reputA-
tion as a fence buster. Several minor
league clubs entered bids for his 1920
services, but Salm out-talked his
rivals and grabbed the youngster.
, Browlow has been under fire in
the Taxes League before, having pas.
times with the Dallas club two sea-
sons ago. He is an all-around ball
player, a fast and ready worker to
any position, excepting the pitcher’s
markets and grocery stores in Wiche
Ita Falls. The present congestion of
the streets in the business part of
Wichita Falls and the ordinance re-
garding parking of cars makes it al-
most impossible for any one driving
a car to do their marketing down
‘own, it will be easy to get to our i
place of business as it is only one and
a half blocks off from Tenth street
and one-half block from the car line
on Ninth street.
Yds win be able to buy the best of
meats and anything you desire in the
grocery line and fresh vegetables
every day. The grocery department
will be conducted by R. C. Prim, who
is a thorough and up to date grocery
man, and the meat department will be
conducted by R. L. Budlong, formerly
of Budlong’s market on Indiana' ave-
nue. .
We cordially invite you to call and
inspect our store and examine our
stock, and we kindly ask for at least a
part of your patronage.
