Fl. L. Mooney, publisher of the
Chesaw News, stopped over In Oro-
Vile, Monday night on his way to
brewster on business. MIR. Mooney is
clever and hustling young newspaper
man, and has made a paper stick at
Chesaw when and where the encour-

has not been such as to really

agreeable gentleman, and like all the

sjdering the size of the place. but for
1.-THE past year the people of the town
have contributed an average of over

not going to give up readily.

n moments notice. Once in while
however, there are record breakers
in the point of attendance, and the
dance of last Thursday night was one
Of the kind that sets new record.
