Mr.. C. w. Tenney of this village wrote
to the paper printed at his old home in
Newport, N. FL. at the time Of the sugar
party at n. Farley's, describing Mr..
Farley's sugar orchard. Mr.. Farley has
now received an order for sugar from
reader of that paper living in Providence,
r. l., which shows that his kind invitation
to the townspeople not only gave pleasure
to large number Of young people, but in
creased his patrons. -,
o. V. Joslyn mas been circulating paper
during the past week to raise money to
get the cannon mentioned in last weeks
issue. He has already received promise of
enough to get one cannon and it is now
thought best to get two OF them in order
to have one at this end Of the village and
one at the upper end. The one at this
end would doubtless be placed in the park
and the other wherever the citizens up
town desire it.

Our advertisers are taking a large amount
of our space this week SO we are oblige to
condense our locals to quite an extent.
However, the advertisers are all local men,
and what they have to say is of interest to
everyone. 1t is not necessary to go to some
| larger town to get good line of goods to
select from, for it is fact that our town
merchants in all lines carry stock which
compares favorably with the stores in
much larger towns. They are all making
special offers this week and all of our read
ers who desire to make purchases in any
line will do well to read these offers care
fully.
