 The Holmes Supply Co. had new sign painted on their place of busi- ness this week, which shows off to a nice advantage. Nothing like being ambitious and in the swim.
 George Greenawald has taken up his new position as general man ager of Jos large business, and seems as we'll contented as he did when he sat behind the counter and ordered the bell boys to jump, kept cases on the dining room and girl put the weary travelling man to bed.

 Thursday night Dec. 9th, being their first wedding anniversary, Mr. and Joe LaChance entertained at cards at their home on Sheridan Ave. A very enjoyable time is re- ported by those in attendance, which was 36 people making 9 ta- bles. At 80 p. m. dainty lun- cheon was served, after which the guests departed for their homes, wishing Mr. and Mrs LaChance many more such occasions. We are indebted to a member of K. P.

 c. C.-R. A. Morrow. V. C.-Dr. A. Adams.

It seems however that there was some misunderstanding in regard to it and they returned to Prescott Tuesday. Hence Williams is still without hotel. The pros poets that confront the travelling men and tourists here for place to stop while in town is certainly not fiatterirg and it is no wonder that they hurry with all their might to get through with their business and duck out of Williams when they arrive.
 P. B. Parsons and wife who went to Los Angeles last August where MT. Parsons was given a position as cashier in the baggage depart ment in the LaGrand St. Depot, returned to Williams on No. 2 Tues day night. MT.
