While road construction may belong to

INSPECTORS. These volunteers divide the

Each inspector has right to take

but in that year they were really much

Richard Rockefeller is a perfect image
of John D. save for a little chin beard
of the goatee order. He has a son who
promises to become a second John D.,
for he has become cashier of the Bank
of MoviIIe and is rapidly winning rep

Richard has ever been noted for scrup-

never asked for nor received a cent from

his jokes and stories were generally
coarse.

Several years ago, when we were back

that he had died. You see, We moved
