The Loan Exhibition is drawing near |
TO close. to day and to. morrow being
the las. days. So far the Exhibition
has proved grand success, but II the
people only take hold Of the matter In
the right spirit, great deal more may
be realized than has been. All may
not understand tie object for which
this grand exposition has been gotten
up. All should know, as it is Tor the
great and good cause of erecting mon.
ument in memory OF the soldiers who
died while fighting for this great and
glorious country. The managers have
gone 10 great expense in getting up this
grand display and dozens OF citizens
have devoted their whole time Tor the
last three weeks working about the
building free of charge, and 1t IS GER
tainiy not asking too much OF the citi
zsns in general, when We urge
them to turn out en- Rdsse during these
last two days and give the cause the
greatest boom it has yet had.
Wheeling has done much 10 promote
the cause, bu. she can do more and the
favors granted now will not soon De ior-
gotten by our citizens and will when OPP
portunity offers be reciprocated.
There are many articles upon which
the Loan receives large per
cent. on all sales Every person
visiting the building should take along
some money to invest in these articles. !
There certainly is something there
which every family would be pleased to
have and at the same time they would
be helping the cause along.
To day and tomorrow will probably
be very interesting days as all oil the
finishing touches have been put on each
booth and then the catalogue will be out
and with its assistance many rare arti'
cles will be found which otherwise
would have passed unnoiiced. No one
has yet been able to get a good idea oil

which are exhibited in the relic depart.

The fancy department is all that

compliment could be passed upon this

the late war are on exhibition probably

Every person should remember that the
