Fearing lesiHlance, one of the robbers
fired itntnediatelv and hongess drop-

The holdup men then lined up th"

looted the till, ran front the mm loon uinl

went:

Por finite a loner time to reemain.
W'nr is a thing T do not like
Whare men eeeh other with bullets

And if T only had my soy
The war wud stop and stop right away
I know of warfare and its toers,

And that is why this war shod coano
And bring to us eternal peece.
Well, sed Pa to Ma, T suppose it

I have nothing to say, sed Mnt un

yours better, f will, say so. So I road
my poem:

And to me it doesnt seem right
Thai to pleoso a 'Am 01' a King
A lot of brave men shod fite.
That is a very short poem, Bobbie,

Formorlr Oscar Johnson's Plymouth
TO TIIE PUBLIC.
Salem, Ore., December 18, 1911.
FRIENDS:
The Yuletide season is on and we wish to extend our sin
cerest greetings to the people of Salem and vicinity.
First of all, because we are neighbors; second, because
we desire to carry forth the Yuletide season's cheer
whenever we have an opportunity to do so; and third,
because we are really grateful to the general public
for the satisfactory support they have given our
establishment since we purchased the Oscar Johnson
stock. ' 1 rt5
Usually when new-comers come to the city the public are
not prone to patronize them, not having the feeling
of confidence and security in the new folks. However,
we have not found it so. Our store has received its
share of the business to date. It may be because
we come from Portland and being well known there.'
No matter, whatever the reason for our immediate,
success, we are thankful and appreciative, and will
alwaysendeavor to merit this feeling, by giving the
people 100 cents on the dollar in worth for every
dollar they spend with us.
We will always carry a complete line of the best CLOTH
ING, SHOES, SHIRTS, HATS, UNDERWEAR; in
fact, everything for the MAN AND BOY.
With the very best wishes for a very Merry Christmas
and a Happy, Prosperous New Year, we remain,
Sincerely yours,
BRICK BROTHERS.
