The music Of the saw and hammer is heard on
every side. Dozens of residence buildings are in
course of construction. Brick blocks are rising as if
by magic. New enterprises are establishing them
selves daily. This great activity is due not only to
the fact that the town has such bright future pros
poets, but that The Beien Town and Improvement
company is selling lots within the reach of all.
The church and school facilities are second to
