Purchasers of holiday goods will find
helpful information in the many adver-
tisements contained in The Reporter.
Merchants who have space in this paper
are all good reliable firms and by pat
ronizing them the buyer makes no mis-
take. The holiday lines this year are
fully up to the standard and contain the
latest and best in the way of gifts. Ed
gerton is certainly the place in which to
buy presents because the variety is
larger, the quality is better and the
prices are lower than in most towns.
