Bsattention of the members of the
Chamber Of Commerce is the need Of
I more adequate and convenient dc
4 pot. For some time the city has out.
grown the present freight house and
the need OF new depot has been
urged from time to time. Since Press.
dent Willard's return from Europe he
has been quoted as saying that the
Il same policy that has been in vogue
since his taking charge Of the admin.
istratiye affairs OF the company would
be pursued during The year that the
attention OF the company would be
directed 10 the building up the line
already In operation.
