"GEE! Ain't It FIERCE!
The first Monday after holi-
days.
It's a dismal feeling, starting
to SCHOOL again after the ex-
citing times you've had, but
it soon wears off when you be-
gin to meet your school friends
again, and talk over all the good
times.
And before you start for
school there's an interesting day
ror you, when you go shopping
in preparation for school. And
of course you're coming to
HILSHER Drug Co., to see all
our latest school helps.
It will be much easier to do
your sums if you have a silver
pencil that slides right up into
the handle and prevents the
point from getting broken.
* Or if you prefer an assortment
of the gay red, yellow and blue
pencils, we have a dandy little
sharpener that will enable you
to keep the point on them.
Then for the games at recess
and after school you will want a
hard rubber ball, a foot ball and
tennis balls.
It's always hard to get up in
the morning, but one of our
quaint little clocks, with its in-
termittent alarm, will arouse the
sleepiest boy or girl.
And for the parties to which
you go from time to time we
have scores of novelties which
will delight the host or hostess
—games, fancy pencils, books
slates, Master piece tablets and
Note book paper; construction
paper, Chemistry and Geometry
paper, water colors, compass.
You'll be really anxious to
start to sohool after you have
visited our store and seen some
of these first aids to happy school
days.

Cotton Receipts
PassJOOO Mark
The local r.otton receipts for
Schulenburg passed the 3000
bale marlc Wednesday of this
week. The crop is at least two
thirds gathered.
The goverment report which
was released Wednesday morn-
ing at 10 o'clock was bearish.
This report showed a condition
of 59.6 with an indicated yield
of 15,166,000 bales. If bad
weather sets in over the country
for the balance of the season a
yield of 14,104,000 is estimated,
if continued favorable weather
prevails over the cotton states a
yield of 16,379,000 is estimated.
The only bullish factor in this
report was ginning to Seqtem-
ber 1st. which were 694,877
bales, this is nearly 2,000,000
less than last year.
This goverment report was
very dissapointing as it was
expected to come in under the
fifteen milloin mark. Hundreds
of bales of cotton were held by
merchants and farmers for this
report. It is expected now that
the fifteen million and ever fig-
ures will stand until about the
middle of October.

tonio spent Sunday and Monday
