A HOLIDAY FEAST.
Lincoln Clothing Company Celebrates
Good Business Year.

Lincoln Clothing Company Celebrates
Good Business Year.
Thursday evening the members of
the Lincoln Clothing Co. firm, together
with the employees, had a little dinner
at the New Windsor, the spread being
given by the firm as a token of it's
appreciation to its employees and in
celebration of good year of trade.
1t was a jolly little crowd that sat
down to the table, and the enjoyment
was just as great as the crowd was
jolly.
The Lincoln Clothing Co. has been
in business little less than two
years, but has built up a business of
which it may well be proud. Being a
regular and liberal advertiser in The
Wageworker it stands to reason that
it's business is constantly growing.
The editor acknowledges an invita-
ton to the little "love feast" and
blushingly admits that he made full
hand at the table.

ment of the Lincoln Gas & Electric
Light Co.
But this is correct statement: The
Miller & Paine adj, the Armstrong
Clothing Co. ad., and the Lincoln Gas
C Electric Light Co. ad. were the
three largest advertisements ever ap-
try. And The Wageworker hopes to
see even this great record eclipsed
several times during the coming year.
