The heavy showers during the past

cleaning up the paved and macadam-
lied streets in the city. The rain on

rents that everything lying loose

carried off in the sewers. Our farm
ers are not exactly pleased with the
amount of rain that has fallen lately
as it is retarding their work in the
field too long. Especially low lying
lands are in bad shape and it will
take some time before they can be
worked

opening celebration of Krueger's

are all of mahogany and are rich,
dignified and handsome. Beautiful
solid plate and Verdi antique marble
show cases adorn both sides the
fixtures extending to the ceiling; new
metal ceiling and a new linoleum

noir has passed through various phases

beauty that comes from paint that is

as his paintings grow older they acquire
an additional glamour. In this little

spirited glimpses of boats on the Seine

that clings TO so much of the country
side OF rural France, and studies OF
young women and children painted with
almost invariable distinction and with
