schools will open on Tuesday. January 2.
The Bazaar held last Friday and Satur-
day by the ladies Of the Congregational
church was decided success. The dis
play of fancy goods manufactured by the
ladies was fine and the sales large and at
paying prices. The refreshment stand
was fairly though not literally Patronized.
The receipts at the door were $57 and the
total receips not far from $500. The large
silk quilt fell to Miss Ella Day, the tele.
graph operator at the ]. L. g. 8. depot and
the smaller one to K. A. Todd Jr., our
popular City Clerk.
| We sell winter caps cheaper than any
house in the county at the Peoples Bazaar.
Ny motto is quick sales, small profits.
