When you sec a young man saving
his money in building association in
stead of spending it in riotous living

"A coal company, while engaged in

week looking for new location. Mr..
Parker is lawyer by profession, and has

wishes to engage in farming. He comes

valuable acquisition to Pullman's society

way, has frequently secured it lifelong
subscribers, and in that way it benefits
us, while it at the same time is taken as
an act OF kind remembrance on the part
OF the sender"
-''Newcomer" may have exaggerated
the facts little, yet it appears that
there is just ground for complaint from
strangers. The general sociability of the
ladies Of Pullman is not up to the aver
sge. 1t would seem that in town of
this size, the ladies would all be acquain-
ted with each other, but from what we
saw in the park last Sunday it is evident
that even residence of years does not
make them acquainted. This should
not be, and the sooner the state of affairs
is changed the better it will be for Pull
