at work arranging for the detail work

spring at Vinton it is also understood
that deal is on hand by which they will
probably secure the Moomaw spring Just
on the outskirts Of the city. This will
give them a considerable supply and at
the same time make things little I'M
comfortable for certain Roanoke mo-
