was finally located, and was caused

Redlick's first fixed up windmill in
one show window, operated by cleo
tricty. The Shoe Store opposite went
to work and fitted up a miniature re-
sidence, with an electric fan inside,
scattering feathers, the flying fleecy
material representing a snowstorm,
and very good imitation. The other
window in Redlick's Is dressed with
fIagree strings of various hues to re-
present rain storm. McCutchen of
the Shoe Store followed suit with
another snowstorm scene IN the other
window of his store. These features
attract much attention and are the
subject of much complimentary re-
marks.
