In Rio Jaueiro, Brazil, there is n
novel system of avoiding the blockadinr
OF streets. On the busiest thoroughfares
all the trucks and vehicles are headed in
one direction. in this way the stream of

H. G.. Beach, the we'll known

of his many friends, who hope it
will not be long before he will be
able to clear away his financial
difficulties. Mr.. Beach has an hon.
orable record in Alpena as a bust
ness man and citizen. The reason
for the assignment is the inability
to collect the accounts due him, so
that he could meet his bills, and if
the accounts due Mr.. Beach were
paid, he would not only be able to
meet his liabilities, but would have
a considerable surplus. We trust
