1t gives the Sentinel pleasure to
note the increasing business OF the
Grenada Steam Laundry. This office
learns that they are now receiving a
large amount of weekly laundry from
out of town points and that they are
installing new machinery and making
every necessary preparation not only
to do larger quantities of work but to
give their customers as good, if not
better, work than ear be obtained
Grenada needs the laundry.
1t is an enterprise long desired here
and it should receive not only the con-
versational encouragement but that
that helps to pay bills from Grenada
The death of Ruby Pearl. the nine
months old daughter of MI. and Mrs.
G. E. Lockett at, Waco, Texas, was
indeed a severe bereavement to the
fond parents who had gone thither
expecting to spend several weeks de-
Ilghtfully with relatives. The re-
mains reached Grenada at noon
Monday and were inferred in Odd
Fellows cemetery after funeral SER
vices conducted by Rev. W. W.
Mitchell, of the Methodist church.
The Sentinel would remind the
leart broken father and mother that
,arth has no sorrows that heaven can
lot heal and their dear little Ruby is
low basking in the sunlight Of Par
disc reckoning those who are left
'ehind to meet her there. The Sem
incl tenders sympathy to the dis
reSSed parents.
