The first social of the Oh stial

a. J. Pullcn has sold half in
terest in his grocery business to L. ID.
whitney who takes possession Monda,
and the new firm will be Pullen &
Whitney. 1t will certainly be strong
one and the business which has been
constantly growing, is to be further
increased and several improvements in
the store are in contemplation.
The selectmen are at work to-day
trying to got the town hall committee
to agree to the location of the lockup
in the northwest corner Of the cellar.
ms would leave a chance for two
windows and Il door from the outside
could be built, This would be better
than the other plan. but not equal to
the lookup we took out few years ago

Yesterdays storm tested the rlec
trlc road and the efficiency of the snow
plough. The cars run nearly on time
though little late and the plough did
most satisfactorily. There was a meet
ing of the directors last evening to
hear report from the Secretary and
Treasurer and learn the state of the
construction account to date and the
business for the past four months.
1t IS needless to say that was a
good showing. Plans for the future
we're also discussed.
