One Woman Prisoner With Clara Sopa, PARTIAL ECLIPSE OF : Pessimists have long predicted' the gradual extinction of the small stores and their absorption by tho national chains. One observer of the trend toward the dominance of combinations of capital in the retail trade wrote: "It is not pleasant to the small merchant to be draged behind the counter as a salaried employee; a little spoke in a big wheel." But it happens that this doleful prediction is not of recent origin. It was written and published in the Springfield Republican in 1895-- 40 years ago. At that time the big department stores were just getting under way. Since then we have seen added menances to the, small retailer in the form of mail order houses and chain stores. Yet thousands of small t6wn stores have survived, many of them becoming big stores. Naturally those which have succeeded are the ones which have kept abreast of the times, adopting new methods and policies as occasion demanded to meet the keener competition presented by the larger enterprises. And a most important factor which has contributed to the success of retailers large and small has been intelligent, persistent and adequate advertising. 14-YEAR-OLD BOT KILLED AT CRYSTAL LAKE HOME Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon for James W. "Jimmy" Smith, 14-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank A. Smith of Crystal Lake who died Sunday night from a shotgun wound in the head, accidentally received Sunday morning in the basement of his home. The boy wa9 wounded while trying to open a basement window through which to shoot at s,ome birds which were in a fruit tree in the back yard. It is believed that the window frame was swollen and that Jimmy set the gun down on the floor so that he could pull on the window with both hands. The weapon, a 410 gauge shotgun, was discharged, the shot entering his head just below the right ear, tearing through his brain and lodging in his skull. He was slumped over on the basement floor when his father reached him. The youth was given first aid treatment and then rushed to a hospital at Elgin. He never regained conscious- YOUNG FARMER MEETS AWFUL DEATH SUNDA Richard B.
