en- to them By Derrick Atchison him
self that he was going to be mar

What stunned them most was his
way Of telling them this quite natur-
ally, as If 1t was nothing unusual IT

Of announcing every. day Of his life
that he had matrimonial intentions.

married" almost wept Mrs Atchison

Well, we think If she should dream about that sec tion of the city she would soon wake np and shout NO SIR-REE; let the name stay. but demand new street to run from Dublin across lots and connect with East Main street just west of John D.'s pond. Say, would mt that be quite handy for people to catch car if they were coming to the center Cor to 42 East Main street), or if you were delivering goods from East Main street to- ward the Abrigador? Wouldn't it be a short cut instead of going as you must at the present time? But we are not laying out streets; it's Alice we wish to talk about.
