she will be sadly missed, not only by
her immediate family, but all who
knew her.
She leaves seven children: Mrs Edgar
Nlcholes, Miss Sue Aston, Miss Carrie

Advertising is a great deal like eating.
You cannot eat very large meal and
expect to go without eating again for
the next week or ten days; neither can
you advertise successfully by using a
