sentinels to beat back the icy blasts of
winter and the scorching winds of
summer.

AS a manufacturing city, Staunton
never expects to be second Pittsburg,
but for small factories and manufact-

agricultural section with
prosperous, substantial people. The

the new rendezvous of the great army
of capital and labor.
A Strategic Location-At the inter-

the gateway of the South, within few
