A deal has been under Roadway
the past few days whereby C. H.
Stocking will dispose of his laundry
to outside parties. The deal is prac-
tically made and the new owners will
arrive soon to remove the machinery
from the old building to the brick
room across the street from this Of
fee. Mr.. Stocking hesitates in dis
posing of his business, but he feels
that he is getting too old to look af.
ter the business properly and prefers
to have It pass into younger and
more capable hands. The change
will probably be made next week.
