that high way cannot be closed

wooden bridge would cost, let us have
the iron one by ali means. Thorough
work pays in the long run.

The last of a series OF six dances
was given at Carpenters, Friday eve,
the 3oth. The Quintette Band was
assisted by G. NJ, Cobb, clarinet, and
the music was spoken of in high
terms. "Clum" sets good table and
keeps his house in excellent condition,
but there seems to be a growing tend
ency among people who get up dances
to want all the money themselves.
The music must play tor about moth
ing, and every little item or favor ell,
joyed by the dancers must be paid for.
