PLAY. AMICUS" NEXT
Dallas Basket Ball Team to Meet
Portlanders in Armory Tomorrow
Night in Brisk Game.
Tomorrow night in the new ari
mory building the Dallas basket ball
team will cross swords with the
"Amicus Club" of Portland, self
styled champions of the Northwest
I he "Amicus" club comes to Dal
las with confidence in its ability to
defeat the strong team of company
a, 0. N. G., acknowledged to be one
of the strongest aggregations of its
kind in the state. Recently the
"Amicus" club defeated the well
known Multnomah club team by a
score of 23 to 13, and upon that
victory very largely is the "Ami
cus" club basing its claim to the
Northwest championship.
Considered Strong.
The "Amicus" club is not very
well kijown outside of basket ball
circles, but in basket ball, it is con-r
sidered one of the strong contend
ers for basket ball honors. Informa
tion from Portland is to the effect
that there is no better team in Port
land this year than this one, unless
it be the "Spartans."
Though the Dallas boys are some
what used up as a result of their
very hard game Christmas Day with
the Silverton team in Silverton, still
they feel confident of being able to
decisively settle any question as to
who are the real basket ball cham
pions of the Northwest, if not of
the whole United States. However,
an interesting contest is looked for,
and a large crowd is expected. This
will be the last big game in this city
until after the Angora Goat show..
Married By Judge.
Daniel W. Pickett, of Dallas, and
Etta Dow were united in marriage
this week at the court house by
County Judge Ed F. Coad. The wit
nesses to the ceremony were W. J.
White and Iva Gwinn.

A Word To Our
Many Customers
Our business for the holiday sea
son iust closed our first year in
the book and art business in Dallas
was far ahead of even our fond
est expectations. People who bought
their gifts at this store and there
wereimany of them had the satis
faction of knowing that no larger
citv in the country could offer them
a mnm nn-to-date assortment of
books and art goods from which to
choose.
Our holiday stock is gone com
pletely sold out. Of the hundreds
of dollars worth of . goods .displayed
on our tables and shelves two weeks
ago, less than $20 worth remains
unsold.- This will mean a complete
new stock of gifts for the holiday
season of 1912. It means that we
are now free to devote as much care
o,i nttpntion durinsr the coming
eleven months as will be necessary
to the selection of a stock for next
Christmas that will bring a busier
trade than we enjoyed this year.
And, now, with the remodeling of
our store and the rush of the Christ
mas season behind us, we will be
able to devote more time to the com
pletion of our book and stationery
stock, and to add the lines of blank
books, typewriters, card index sys
tems, and office supplies that will
make the Dallas book store one f
the best in the state.
We are deeply grateful for the
generous patronage accorded us by
the people of Dallas and Polk Coun
ty, and more grateful still for the
many kind expressions of interest
in the success of our new business.
In return for these many kind wish
es, we but faintly express our grat
itude when we wish for all of our
neighbors and friends the blessing
of health, happiness and prosperity
during the coming year ot VJL-
