Rube Charles got tired loafing around
doing nothing since the 1st of January,
and has bought the Culver lumber
yard business and is now posting up
on how to figure lumber bill so AS to
make profit and at the same time
swipe the trade from the other fellow.
The DEMOCRAT wishes Rube success
in his new departure.
