ONE boy with sling shot will kill
more birds in one afternoon than he

anything but desirable one. The
hose companies could do this work
very nicely.

THERE is employment for every
man in Monongalia county who is

The report that Posten would OPP
en- wholesale grocery here is not
correct, at least not at present but

III is not improbable that the open

are sure of an artistic job with no
waste, no dirt, no wrinkles. That is
the cheapest way to get room deco
rated.
