The Mutual Building and Loan associa-
ton of Goodland is decid eddy on the boom.
1t looks as though the company would be
able to place 1000 shares which at 5000 per
share would be $500. 900. Many of the share
holders will take loans and build, but 9TH
ers will find it a safe and profitable invest
ment. The success of the old association
has greatly encouraged and stimulated the
taking of shares in the new association.
j. G. Bourne showed us the design Of the
new Masonic temple to be erected on the
corner of Boulevard and Ninth street. The
desien is an admirable one and the temple
will be a fine ornament to our city. The
plan proposed is a three story brick with
stone trimmings, and besides this a base
ment story. The plan proposes building
costing about $4,000. We hear that there
is opposition to the scheme based on north
and south end jealosies. We think this
shonld not be as GoodIand will soon out
grow its present limit and all good public
spirited citizens should give their moral
support to the enterprise.
