Rev. E. F. Flemon Informs us that the color
ed people of Ravenna have about completed
| arrangements for building a church edifice.
The site selected is on North Walnut street. He
says the new organization numbers twelve
members and that encouragement and friendly
words come from all sides. This is a very
worthy enterprise and one in which the people
of Ravenna. irrespective of color. are interest
ed, for it is quite essential to the welfare of
community that the morals of the colored
people be cared for as those of the more numer-
GUS whites. What concerns one concerns all in
| this particular. Help brother Flemon in his
| commendable undertaking.
The boot and shoe factory is climbing toward
| the stars as fast as the hands of many workmen
| can push it. The fourth story, or third frame
story, is already up and nearly enclosed, and one
| more story will complete the great structure,
which will shortly be filed with hundreds of op-
eratives. and resound with the busy hum of in
dustry. Everything is working admirably and
with favorable weather the VIII eels of the factory
will be in revolution long in advance of the date
| originally assigned. Messrs. Jordon and Good
| rich are live business men. and fortunate indeed
was it for Ravenn that they selected this town in
| which to locate their magnificent plant. Having
a large trade already established. they are ex-
| tremely anxious that the factory be in operation
as soon as possible. to fill the many orders
| hand. They are gentlemen known everywhere
in the circles of the trade and therefore possess
every advantage over competitors having no ac-
Quaintance or experience. We cannot empha-
| size too much the Importance of their presence
| among as citizens and manufacturers for with
experience, tenergy and abundance of capital
and the disposition to aid in the material ad-
vancement of the place which is now their home.
| no words can overestimate the value of such an
acquisition. On behalf of the citizens of Raven
ma and OF the surrounding country as we'll. we
extend to these gentlemen cordial welcome.
and take pleasure in thus introducing them to all
our readers,
