A dramatic entertainment, in which
the best talent of our town will be en-

will find the mill very handy place at
which to have their grain ground.
f. E. Sawyer has given up his job as
sexton of the church. Frank evidently
believes that Cleanliness is next to
Goodness" at least his care of the
church would thus indicate. He did his
work well and faithfully and relin-
quishes the position to the regret of
many.

his commission within sixty days from
date thereof. In case he neglects to
make such deposit with the County
